An animated history of Earth in one day

Paul Dillon

This ambitious claymation/magic marker video compresses Earth’ shistory into a 24-hour period. That’s right, all 4.5 billion years, courtesy of Buzzfeed’s Mitchell Moffit.

From Moffitt: What would it look like if we took Earth’s 4.5 billion year history, and stuffed it into a normal day’s 24 hour time-frame? Follow the magnificent journey of life; where it began, and how it eventually led to humanity as we know it.
