Veritasium’s latest video crams four billion years of evolution into an engaging romp, starting with why poop reeks (survival tactics, anyone?) and tracing life’s humble beginning through gene mutations, simulated evolution experiments, and the nuts and bolts of natural selection. Derek Muller even breaks down kin selection and Richard Dawkins’ Selfish Gene to show how and why certain traits (and selfish DNA) get passed down generations.
Packed with eye-catching animations, expert interviews, penguin cameos, and a sprinkle of humor, it turns the vast saga of life—complete with molecular models and tabletop game teases—into a fun, brain-tickling simulation you won’t forget.
