Vid by a guy called Neal Adams. Being a student of the Earth sciences i found this intriguing.

Just a hypothesis, but you never know....ooooooohhhhh :P

  • The marsupial duck-billed platypus roamed antarctica and south america did it? And then obviously became extinct and left no traces behind! Good job the better known australian monotreme duck-billed platypus stayed at home to survive into the present.

    Also, for all these continents to fit so impessively well in their current above sea-level shapes, they must have the mysterious property of being able to subduct or otherwise 'lose' their under sea-level margins as the video runs time backward !

  • haha I love it! Continents drift at different speeds, change shapes and so on just to fit in to the predetermined model. Science? No... based on facts? No Possible? No

    I don't say that the continents hasn't changed shape etc. This video shows ALL continent moving apart when we know they don't. How come no one ever messured the rate of wich earth grows? Maybe because it doesn't...

    I don't know why (some) americans love conspiracy theories

see all

  • great video thanks

  • Wait, is this guys saying that the Earth actually grew in size over time?

  • One can't debunk what isn't bunk. Plate Tectonics is based on direct observation, experimentation, and inference in accordance with the Scientific Method, and explains what is currently observed and what appears in the geologic record. Therefore, PT is not bunk.

    OTOH, Expansion Tectonics like Carey's & Maxlow's, which postulates matter generation that's never been observed, does qualify as bunk, and was invalidated by Plate Tectonics nearly 50 yrs ago. Maxlow can't even explain his theories.

  • @aakesson1 The rate of Earth expansion (or "growth" as some pseudo-scientists would have it) has never been observed because it isn't occurring. What has been observed and measured are rates of mid-ocean ridge spreading and rates of oceanic crust subduction (order of mm/yr). Plate Tectonics explains all this w/o resorting to the hocus-pocus of Expansion Tectonics (matter generation that's never been observed- we'd see neutrinos emanating from w/in the Earth). HTH.

  • really informative and interesting

  • Very enjoyable thank you

  • very interesting thanks

  • this is stupid

  • you are an uneducated dick brain.... how about you learn something before you post a video claiming to know what the hell you are talking about!!!! this is not even worth my time to tell you how stupid and wrong you are!!!!!!!!

  • Very interesting! Thanks for posting
