The Mind Boggling Human Urge to Explore AustraliaAdded:
linger on this because for me it was the ship wrecks thing was convincing and then looking back, first of all watching your video, but also just realizing the peopling of Australia part.
That's mind-boggling. You know, 50,000 years ago. Just imagine being the person standing on the shore, looking out into the ocean, standing on the shore of a harsh environment, looking out to the ocean of a you know, harsher environment, and deciding that, you know what, I'm going to go towards near certain death. Mhm.
I don't know what's on the other side of that water. You can't see 90 km.
>> And humans did it. Yeah. Yeah. And again, it's that it's that it's that urge to explore.
>> Yeah.
