Fascinating. The last 20 years of history take far more time on that show than the first 4 billion...

An interesting test is to now write down all the images you can remember from that film.

If one of them had been an advert for Marlborough cigarettes, you'd remember it?

It's a final project by a high school student, allegedly.

Not sure I agree with that.

If you were to allocate the two minutes proportionately to elapsed time, you'd spend a long time looking at rocks. About 5/1000th of a second would be devoted to human history, and you'd spend 60% of the video waiting for multi-celled organisms to evolve. You wouldn't see plants on land until 12 seconds from the end, and dinosaurs until about 7 seconds after that.
