Galapagos : The Islands That Changed The World part 1

All fixed. (I hope)

HMS Beagle visited the Islands on their journey in 1831-1836. With the boat came a long a young man, who eagerly studied the landscapes and bizarre life forms of the islands, which inspired him to write one of the most famous books in history, one that would revolutionize the view on our world; The Origin of Species.

This man, was Charles Darwin.

Get to know the wonderful Galapagos trough his eyes and discover the wonder.

im from Ecuador a very religious contry to wich tthe Galapagos Island belongs to and its people instead of taking this as something to be proud of they dont like to talk about this or Darwings ideas because what it means to belive in them . hopefully as we evolve we will abandon all this religious belives and clear the way for the new man.

You mean they aren't taking the issues in Galapagos seriously or is it just about Darwins vouage that ticks them off? Either way I'm sorry to hear when ever people are blinded by faith.

I take pride in our wildlife, even though it may not seem to be anything special. Galapagos is an amazing place and I'd love to visit though not as a tourist but I'd like to follow Darwin's footsteps and study the life forms living there.

Thanks for uploading this. The world needs more people like you and I who appreciate the wonderful geological aspects the world has to offer. I'm currently pursuing my masters degree in Anthropology, and I must say that it was wonderful to see this film, for it gave me a better insight on Charles Darwin and his work at the Galapagos Islands.

Thanks for that. Also, now that I got my channel working again I will soon (hopefully soon) get to upload the final episode.

@pienipaha They understand the value but not the scientific importance--but that will change with education.

@XAVIERCUERVO im from ecuador too and sadly i have to agree with you , these islands are probably one of the most important source of evidence for darwin's work the same work that conclude with the discovery of the theory of life itself , but in my beautiful country they rather not use a condom and get aids than dissobbey the pope or USA lol

Narration is over the top. It's sounds all mystical. She could say, "And then Frodo and Sam departed from the shire for Middle Earth, baring a large burden..."

Bu then again, the cinematography is also pretty over the top - & mystical!
