David Christian - Big History

I don't know if you paid attention during history class, but if you missed some of the highlights because you were sleeping or daydreaming, you're in luck because David Christian is here to tell the story of the universe, from the Big Bang to the internet in a mere 18 minutes.

As the video description mentions, "this is 'Big History': an enlightening, wide-angle look at complexity, life and humanity, set against our slim share of the cosmic timeline."
