I mean, it just blows my mind that everything we see took millions of years to develop the way it did, most features of Earth have been around longer than we have, and even before those there were others that were destroyed and/or changed over time. I mean, it's just crazy to think that we just happen to occupy a very small time frame on this constantly changing and evolving planet. I mean, there are things like huge jungles that are mostly unexplored:

And other places have the same thing, but have evolved differently due to climate:

And in one part of the world, there is a huuuuuuuuuge desert:

All because of these huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge mountains miles away:

And things like sand, water, minerals, animals, etc, have (over a very large amount of time) have created things like:

Not to mention the insane underwater caves that sustained the Mayans.

Even something like volacoes can create things amazing things like:

Not even mentioning the biodiversity, or how everything depends on everything else.

So, does the Earth blow your mind?

The Earth is quite fascinating. It's a shame most of those places I will probably never see in person. :(

The earth is nothing compared to what else exists in this universe. If the human race disappeared tomorrow, it would be a return to normality. What we have seen and what we have done, is worth less then a milli-second.

I love seeing nature. Im no conservationist, but sometimes its just so relaxing.

The other day my girl and I were talking about running away to some deserted island in some nordic area just to escape life and live with nothing but each other and mother earth.

Did you have the guy with the accent or did you have Sygorney Weaver? Sygorney Weaver as a narrator wasn't great, you hear that it was all scrippted and she had little to none (prety much none) knowledge of earth. Where's your acting skills NOW!!! :'(

The word 'over exaggeration' isnt enough to describe what you think his narration sounded like.
I liked his narration, because it provided info about what I was watching. I didn't want to mindlessly watch a video about the earth without learning anything. The whole point of the video is about learning.....Why dont you just turn the sound off..

Well, considering Earth is one of a kind, I guess that would make sense that it's amazing. It unfortunate that mankind is destroying the beauties of this planet....
