- Take a look at my little brother's 6th grade history book. Really? Your brother's book?
- 00:15
- You have way too much time on your hands. Well some of these ape men look familiar.
- 00:22
- Long lost relatives of yours? No, I'm just kidding. But no, it's because they're in our book as well. Oh, well in our book they say
- 00:30
- Australopithecus afarensis evolved 3 .8 to 3 million years ago. But in the 6th grade book
- 00:38
- Australopithecus evolved 4 to 5 million years ago. Uh huh, now look at this.
- 00:45
- This is an old 1951 Life magazine publication. According to this,
- 00:51
- Australopithecus lived 1 million to 500 thousand years ago. Wow, that's different by a few million years.
- 00:58
- These dates are all over the place. Yeah, well it gets worse. So this is our biology, the
- 01:05

- 01:14
- to 1 .9 million years ago. But in the 6th grade one, it's 2 .4
