What Extinct Human Species Really Looked Like | Human | BBC Timestamp

Video Description

Long before us, the Earth was home to other incredible human species, including Homo erectus, the mysterious Homo floresiensis, and the often-misunderstood Neanderthals. We go behind the scenes of new documentary series Human to find out how cutting-edge photogrammetry and CGI was used to reveal surprising truths about how these ancient humans may have looked, lived, why they vanished, and what makes us the last humans standing. #HumanEvolution #PrehistoricHumans #AncientHumans #Neanderthals #HomoFloresiensis Human brings our species' untold origin story to life – spanning 300,000 years, at least six human species, and with one extraordinary survivor: us. Presented by Ella Al-Shamahi, Human utilises cutting-edge DNA science, global archaeology, and breathtaking visuals to tell this ambitious story in a totally new way.
