Surviving The Sixth Extinction: Are we too late?

Of all the species that have ever existed on Earth, 99% of them are gone. Most of those were wiped out during what are known as "Mass Extinction Events".

Since life emerged on our planet, there have been five mass extinctions. Sometimes these events last many years. But sometimes a mass extinction can happen very, very suddenly.

Some scientists think we're on the verge of a sixth mass extinction. Others think it's already begun.

But the question everybody asks is: "Is there anything we can do to stop it?"

Surviving The Sixth Extinction: Are we too late?

Definitely would like to see a video on HAARP

I have no idea if any of TWF team will see this but, I just wanted to say THANKYOU for the little nod to Astrology in this episode! I was almost in tears at the way you tackled the subject as there is so much negative connotations associated with putting even the slightest faith into Astrology, that it usually gets sh*t all over. I’ve been studying it for years and I am still only at a beginner level but I truly believe there was (and still is ongoing) a disinformation campaign to discredit absolutely any validity to astrology whatsoever. Every couple of years NASA attempts to tarnish the Astrology community by claiming the ‘star signs have changed’ due to the precession of the Earth. Topical Astrology was aware of this and as such the signs are fixed to the vernal equinox and seasons and not the sky. This is the kind of information that the average person has no clue about though and they just read the articles spit out claiming their ‘star sign’ has now changed but it couldn’t be further from the truth.. I have no idea what NASA or the gov could possibly gain from trying to discredit Astrology like this but I have a suspicion it’s because Astrology itself does indeed tie into this bigger picture of things that go against the current scientific consensus because a little bit of googling will reveal Astrology is deeper than just you ‘star/sun sign’. But thank you again so much for even the slightest little exposure to Astrology because I do wholly believe, once you move past the whole shallow ‘my ex was an *insert sign here* so I’ll never date one again’ absolute ignorant way of using it, that it can be a VERY useful tool for self awareness and growth. To understand your birth chart is to understand your own ‘life’s manual’ so to speak and it can also greatly improve your relationships with those around you when you seek to use it in such a way to understand better our differences to each other as humans. :)

I totally forgot about HAARP!! Would also love to see an episode!

Mike Witkowski

Yes. I’d like to see one on HAARP.

arrakis

Another awesome episode!! I’d definitely like to see one on HAARP. Thank you so much AJ and team for creating such great content!

I don't select agree 99% of the time. Infact Patreon put me in turmoil. I use Fdroid for most apps and live a dgoogled life. I watch YouTube through loading it in a browser. I also put my phone in a mission Darkness bag when I travel. It's hard because my wife and daughter don't care, but retired military in many countries and things can go south quick. I want them to have as little as possible. It's non of their fucking business how I live, where I go or what I do. Honestly probably will close my patreon and Discord account soon. I only joined to support the why files, back when he had a few thousand subs. Now he's famous and I don't matter nor does my money. I've done my part. Time to get these apps off my phone. I do t fit in with these folks anyway.

Kevin Via

Does it make me a bad person if I want to live in a post apocalyptic environment. Like to be younger but this age works if it has too. I'll miss AC and Ice, but it would be nice to be free, truly free and stay alive do to my abilities and work etthic.

Kevin Via

100% agree. Some thing you can’t prove but I’m the same breath you can’t disprove it either. It’s gets you thinking, what is really going on. 💯

Rocky Baroli

Would love to see an episode on how much we give up when selecting “agree” on terms and conditions of social media an the conspiracies that are connected to these powerful companies and people like Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg. What could these people be up to?

Rocky Baroli

Preferably science/sudo science/ science fiction

R2Ozzchez

Can I get some book recommendations

R2Ozzchez

I am proud of each of you why file leaderrs.

Deirdre a greene

Please, please, please do a HAARP show!

Lisa Christine

Jesus fucking Christ. The following assumes all the information in this video is correct. From the past videos I have high confidence it is so. It took me no less than three hours to watch this video. It's the most information dense thing I've seen in my life, and I had to stop to google details, rant to my friends about mainstream science, and just realise my brain had been going through related knowledge and rewind a bit. Somehow I had not heard of most of the topics in this video. Honestly, you are one of the most valuable creators out there right now. You must be preserved. If there's anything we can all do to make sure you keep up the research and creating videos, please tell us.

Ivari Tölp

Yes. During the After Files, Jen and AJ noted they lived in the Los Angeles area for a couple decades and know Northridge and the differences in the quakes, but weren't able to correct the statement until after the episode was published.

MikeD

Sounds like you have awful luck! Except (not that I'm competing!) I was on an airplane - thankfully stuck on the tarmac - on 9/11! So yeah, I'm probably not the best travel companion either!

NanTiki

This was excellent! I'm just finishing up Hancock's Fingerprints/Magician's of the Gods and learned all about the processional cycles and possible visitors we could get from them!

Will Culbertson

I noted that as well! I was in all three, Bay Area for Loma Prieta, LA for Northridge (Westwood) and happened to be in Vancouver, BC for the Nisqually earthquake. I'd suggest staying away from me if you don't like quakes...

Will Culbertson

Excellent as always and definitely interested in a HAARP-specific video

Maff Bowers

I like how your show this week ended at 26 seconds past 37 minutes....there's those 26's showing up again!

Warren Clark

Former Secretary of Defense Cohen made a small quote about "tectonic weapons" in 1997. https://www.semissourian.com/forums/speakout/thread/923

Scott Crawford

Awesome video AJ and team! Yes please do a HAARP only video!

Christine Atanasio

That would be a good subject. They've touched on it as it was relevant in other videos, but it hasn't had a video of its own. 👍

Steven Farris

Awesomeness, as always! And yes, HAARP... That's going to be interesting, too...

Steven Farris

Episode on HAARP would be interesting for sure :) Thanks for this one!

Michael Roderick

Will you do an episode on "Stargate Project"? Also maybe adding a Beta Fish and they would debate with heckle fish in shorts. They would be a "De-Beta Fish" 😅

THE TROJANOWSKI FAMILY

I’m just happy to be here. Thanks for providing such fantastic content!!

Matthew Phillis

Great video. And YES we need a HAARP video

Miketpi

Excellent episode! Just one teensy clarification: As one who "rode" the 1989 World Series (nee Loma Prieta) temblor in a 22-story highrise in downtown San Francisco, I just wanted to point out that the 1994 Northridge quake was in Los Angeles. This was a great video - and I really appreciate how you can break down complex concepts and communicate them clearly to a non-science dweeb like me! Keep up the good work 👏

NanTiki

Dutchsinse is GREAT at predicting earthquakes, but government keeps shutting him down.

Jan Bounds

Best episode yet! Thanks to you AJ and Hecklefish!

Sam Palahnuk

Loved it, especially the puns! Thanks again AJ and Hecklefish

Daniel Grisham

🤯🫣 this was a phenomenal watch!!! ♥️

7Heather7

Thanks, AJ, for another spell-binding episode. My elder brother would have loved this one.

Keri Holmes Rojas

Same

Raj Hudek

Well presented video. Tchau, tchau!

Sean Story

….,the Radcliffe Wave Hecklefish question 😂love it, Space science , Earth science….simply brilliantly crafted once again, AJ!

Julia Fox

"Plan Nine from Outer Space" was one of the greatest and most inspirational films of the 20th century! Many thanks go out to Mr. Ed Wood for the brilliant screenplay and captivating cinematography.

Mustafa's Fleas

I’m new here 🥰 my first pre-view!! Love the show! We stumbled on your channel and have been binging ever since!!

7Heather7

Holy Schmagegny, Batman! This is the best episode yet, thanks! And at the the risk of sounding repetitive repetitive, I loooooove the longer episodes. Anyway, long or short, please keep them coming. It's important you build up a substantial library of TWF videos before the next extinction event. Cheers!

thormusique

AGAIN ANOTHER GREAT SHOW!

John Seychel

Great episode!!! I would love to see a episode on HAARP.

Jessica Kelsey

This episode was all over the place in the best way possible. Loved it.

Donovan Young

Probably the best episode to date (not hyperbole)! Yes to HAARP ep.

Kevin Heidler

Dark Matter: An unfounded tethered idea, in my study electromagnetism was everywhere, and obviously dark matter doesn't exist. But our brain is the closest thing we have to compare it to in the universe, at this time anyway. As far as we know of, a wall or skull like features haven't been found yet, so we can't prove we are not in a giant brain yet. Wake me when they get there.

John Seychel

planet nine? Wasn’t one of the worst movies ever made called plan nine from Outer Space? Is this coincidence? Please do a show on harp

JIM EATON

It may not be an either-or situation when it comes to gradualists or catastrophists, but I'm more in the catastrophist camp. Beyond that, happy to see TWF is still tackling science issues too with, of course, a Why Files twist.

MikeD

One of my greatest studies, and the answer if we can stop it, NO, we can't, the events are from nature, and nature is not what we believe it to be. If you can't stop the poles from flipping, or stop the Earths crust shifting and causing massive tsunamis across the globe. How do you believe the many layers of tropical growth on Antarctica got there if it really has been down there for millions of years? We know very little, no matter what though no stopping, an underground cavern made for thousands of people and can promote and support life for at least 1000 yrs, while an ice age is happening above.

John Seychel

I like this episode so much and found it so interesting that I watched it twice before making my comment. Super interesting subject, great research done, excellent credit given to the early scientist in this field and AJ shows that credit should have been given when it was due and maybe still should be given if it is due. This subject can be follow up every few years with the latest. Thanks for the hard work AJ, Jen, Gino, Victoria, and the rest of the crew on Gilligans Isle (Now I got that tone in my head). See ya tomorrow!

John Edgeworth

This episode was dope! Now you got me wondering is maybe I should start studying astrology again. The other thought I had, is maybe there are scientists who study this stuff, we just aren’t being told about it. For example the Remote Viewing stuff.. I’m convinced that there’s a wing of the cia dedicated to “pseudoscience”.

joshua banks

I love these vidoes!! thank you for all the effort you give to make these!

Dalton Harrell

so they don't expect planet X to come back around for another 11 million years?

Mary Jo Doering

Awesome episode!!

Rebecca Meyers

Wooohooo! Yes! A HAARP episode :)

Omar

My new ‘must see’ YouTube channel. I’d be interested in an episode about HAARP.

MommaT02

OMG laughed so hard at AJ going after Heckel Fish!! Priceless!!

Rebecca Meyers

Awesome !!!

Jeff Pierce

Terrifying and amazing as usual! I’d love an episode on HAARP

Katie Lima

Can you drop a pic of that sweet belt I see hanging next to Hecklefish's bowl???? (Great video AJ!!!)

19BiGRED74

Love this channel and all the content but most of all I love when Hecklefish gets on a roll, lol Im pretty sure Hecklefish got assaulted in this episode. lol This was great I really enjoy the long episodes. I think its almost time for another alien episode, get those tin foil hats ready!

Matt Olivo

This is an epic episode… and a little frightening too. Thank you Hecklefish for adoring a little humour just when it’s needed!

Drew Lane

Best episode yet team!

Mark P

I will refer to this episode as a billion ways to die in the Universe (tip of the hat to Seth McFarlane)

Shawn Legrand

Another great one, AJ! And Hecklefish is on FIRE this episode! "64 if you relax..." LOL

Jeff Okeson

Ummmm.... I'm worried.... I agree with Hecklefish on most topics...

Justin Phillips (gkanks)

Dutchsinse has gotten really really good at predicting earthquakes. I encourage people to check out his YouTube channel.

DS_the_RN

Such a great episode! My favorite thus far. Way Files at its best!!

Brian Sincerbeaux

that climate change diatribe was fantastic

Jim Hoffman

Randall Carlson is the man

Robert Smith

Hell Yes!! 37m of Amazing WF?!

Bobbie Zarate

RIGHT ON!

Sibyle

OH I CAN'T WAIT. I literally wait all week for this. As soon as the kids get home from school we're watching this! WOOHOO. Thanks AJ!
