Hey guys, thanks for watching beyond science it's Mike Chen
This is a video topic that a lot of you have sent in for me to talk about so thank you so much for doing
That and before we get into it
I just want to give a shout out to the sponsor of the video top hat er and I'll talk about that more at the
End of the video now disease famine climate control runaway asteroids kim jong on these are just some of the ways
Humanity can get wiped off from the face of the planet and the thing is even though we do talk about it
I don't think anybody really believes that it could actually happen war at least happen anytime soon, but and I'll say the word
Extinction after all is an inevitable part of nature and really no
Single species is safe from it not even us in I don't know about you guys
But this year especially it feels like the apocalyptic tree is at least picking up speed with all the earthquakes hurricanes
crazy people just killing for no good reason again, Kim jong-nam being you know kim jong I
Don't know it just feels like that the world could end any day now
But regardless of whether it's the robot apocalypse the zombie apocalypse
Or whatever else are you ventral grizzly and maybe one thing is for sure unless the earth is just completely
Annihilated Mother Nature will continue to live on without the human race so in today's video we're gonna
talk about what happens if
Suddenly we all disappeared so in the events that we became extinct within just a few hours of humanity's
disappearance the entire world will go dark like
Literally well of course more at night because there will be no one left to keep the power plants running and the generators going so
One by one every single bulb every neon lights every street lamp will go dark as power begins to shut down around the world
Plunging the globe in darkness again
This is at night in the daytime of course that really won't make much of a difference
Then comes the nuclear chain reaction with all the power finally going out
There's gonna be a mass chain
reaction of nuclear meltdowns from every single power plant and each
nuclear power to country because without power keeping these plants cooling systems operational these plants will begin to melt down within a month and the
following
Explosions will be much stronger and much
Deadlier well not to us because we're already dead but to the animals and maybe the zombies are still left behind
But the explosions will be worse than the combined and meltdown as a Fukushima and Chernobyl
After that the floods will appear in just a few days after we're gone first our underground railways and tunnels will be flooded and completely
submerged because the pumps that
Diverts water and sewage from the tunnels will stop operating and begin to fill up until it eventually spills into our underground
Infrastructures and speaking of sewage since everything has already shut down
Sewage treatment plants will also cease to operate that will later on spill out of trays and start
And this is disgustingly horrifying it will start a flood of sewage that will most definitely
Poison existing plants and animals so death by a tsunami of poo maybe not the greatest thing
But the worst is still to come because after the poo. We've got the falling stars well
Not exactly stars because within a year of our extinction the skies will be a sight to behold as one by one
All the satellites that we have launched into space will start
Plummeting back to earth having no means of being powered and maintained in the side will most likely
Resemble a meteor shower with streaks of light illuminating the night sky, of course
We won't be around to see it then comes the part. That's kind of set well
I mean it is said that we've all become extinct
But this is really sad only a few weeks after our sudden extinction many of our
Domesticated animals and pets walls began to die because most likely meaning of our furry and feather friends will be locked up in our homes
Or in their cages warm barns when the human race dies out and without having anyone to attend to them these animals that we have
Dread for our leisure a war Enterprise will most likely not
Survive because they would have no means to sustain or feed themselves now the smart ones that may find a way out will still have
A lot of trouble surviving because these domestic breeds of PEZ especially the smaller ones like your answer, Chihuahua
Or your frisky little Terrier will probably end up being on the menu of much larger predatory wildlife that may have already encroached upon
places that humans used to occupy suffice to say that the extinction of humanity may also be the
extinction of I don't know the little Taco Bell guy and speaking of
Animals when the massive cities that we have built in the suburbs that we have occupied have been devoid of our
Presence animal life will begin to return to these places
they used to call home before we moved in a good example of this scenario in a
Microcosm is Chernobyl when the area was turned into an man slain after the devastating meltdown of his nuclear power plants wildlife and even
Vegetation returned to the region while the dogs and birds have returned to begin bringing back life Albert
I mean they're radioactive and highly contaminated lives
But still lifes and speaking of our houses and buildings and skyscrapers
Over time structures especially those that are made of steel will crumble and collapse
Monuments like the Eiffel Tower in structures such as the Golden Gate and Brooklyn bridges will practically
disintegrate due to rust and zero maintenance and as vegetation slowly creeps in to retake the land the concrete structures would also break apart as
roots and vines
Forced your way into a structures cracks and crannies perhaps. The only man-made monuments that will last for a while after we're gone
Maybe our monuments made out of stone such as the Great Pyramids of Giza and the Great Wall of China
But then soon after that
Water will start filling up the world well even more at the height of mankind's expansion of territories and a great
Discoveries of new lands we have paved ways to new regions by building dams and forcing water out of places where they should be Delta
cities man-made islands and places where water has been diverted to create a
Hospitable place for us to live will be swept away by the very same elements
We have tried to command without anyone to maintain them damn walls no matter how thick and fortified will break and release well a lot
Of water when it does tons of Lynn will be submerged turning them back into the rivers and swamp lands that they used to be
bodies of water such as the Colorado
River will once again flow into the Gulf of Mexico and the Hoover Dam will crumble to give back the river that it kept contained
For decades now the thing is not only will water flow everywhere
Deserts will also expand when we're all gone the cities
We have built in deserts lands such as Las Vegas and Dubai will turn back into
Deserts with only the monuments that we have built into structures that we have put up as ghosts of what was once our flourishing
civilizations these desert cities will be nothing more than just arid landscapes against a blazing backdrop of the Sun even
massive areas in the Western Hemisphere such as New Mexico in
California will turn back to the park to ransom that it used to be as homes and buildings begin to deteriorate
In the heeds from the sundry subtool and once more and finally
Mother nature takes it all back within just two decades of our extinction Mother Nature will fully
reclaim the earth as
vegetation will return spread despite the fact that human kind of was able to cultivate certain species of vegetation to make it more edible but
Without us it will return back to its natural state and many of the plants and vegetables
We all know is see in our plates. They will virtually be
unrecognizable in their true while the states the earth upon our
extinction and because of the return of a bunch of vegetation the air will drastically change
It'd be much cleaner than it ever was because all the pollutants will be absorbed to
Processed and basically cleansed by plants eventually this will clear up the Earth's atmosphere and restore it to a pure state once again
So all this will happen in decades
And this is why I strongly believe that that one's ancient advanced
Civilizations existed on earth which would explain a lot of things like maybe how the pyramids were constructed or built Stonehenge
I mean everything I talked about right here in this video happens in a few decades
So why couldn't an ancient advanced civilization have existed and build a lot of stuff?
But somehow died off in over thousands of years have been completely covered up by nature. Also as always doing this video
I was thinking maybe in the future. You know once we can live on Mars
We should just all leave for like a hundred years, and just just let the earth recover
And then you know come back and destroy it again alright guys
Hopefully you enjoyed this video also like I mentioned in the beginning this video is in partnership with top hat ER
