1
Antarctica wasn't always a frozen wasteland.
2
A long time ago, it was full of life.
3
And 56 million years ago, something terrifying stalked its jungles.
4
A giant, flesh-eating bird.
5
It was around 6 feet tall and weighed as much as a lion.
6
For millions of years, nothing could challenge it.
7
So why did it disappear?
8
And could there be even bigger predators still hidden beneath the ice?
9
Paleontologists found two massive claw bones in Antarctica, sharp, curved and powerful, belonging to this bird.
10
They were dug up from the Epresian-aged rocks of Seymour Island, which means they're around 40 to 50 million years old.
11
Their shape left no doubt, these were the so-called terror birds.
12
Their scientific name is Forrest rascity, some of the most fearsome predators to ever walk the earth.
13
They were flightless and didn't even need wings.
14
Instead they could sprint at breakneck speeds like ostriches from a nightmare.
15
For millions of years these birds ruled South America but now for the first time their presence has been confirmed in Antarctica.
16
No surprise here.
17
Back then South America and Antarctica were still connected allowing animals to easily commute between continents.
18
So these birds probably migrated south to adapt to life on Antarctica's prehistoric landmass.
19
It didn't just survive here, it thrived.
20
But at some point, this nightmare of an animal vanished.
21
Why?
22
Most likely because of the temperature changes.
23
Antarctica was cooling, slowly turning into the frozen wasteland we know today.
24
Its prey may have declined, leaving the predator without enough food.
25
Eventually, it disappeared, leaving no descendants behind.
26
Researchers hope that they'll find a complete skeleton eventually.
27
They're also wondering where there might be even bigger species waiting to be discovered.
28
Perhaps these birds evolved into a completely new Antarctic lineage.
29
For now, all we have are two giant creepy claws.
30
People often think that there are almost no animals or plants in Antarctica, but that's not true at all.
31
Penguins waddle around and forget the cute tiny ones.
32
Antarctica used to have six-foot-tall monsters.
33
The emperor penguins are the largest penguin species alive today.
34
They can dive over 1,800 feet deep and hold their breath for over 20 minutes.
35
There were giant ancient penguins around 38 million years ago.
36
They were the size of humans.
37
fossils show they had long sharp beaks making them terrifying hunters of fish
38
and squid the fish there are also absolutely fascinating forget giant
39
squids colossal squids are nightmares even bigger some reach over 40 feet long with massive super sharp beaks
40
and eyes the size of dinner plates.
41
Finally, orcas, the apex predators of the Antarctic Ocean.
42
They hunted packs, working together like a wolf pack of the sea to take down seals, fish, and even massive whales.
43
There are even tiny plants like moss and algae, Antarctic hair grass and pearl wars.
44
They somehow survive against all odds.
45
There are many other myths going on about Antarctica.
46
For example, some people think that when icebergs break off from glaciers, they immediately start drifting straight into the open ocean until they melt.
47
But the reality is way more chaotic.
48
First, when an iceberg breaks off from a glacier or ice shell, it has to deal with underwater obstacles.
49
It can stay stuck on the seafloor for decades without moving.
50
Then they get caught in powerful whirlpools and spin in place for months.
51
One iceberg, a 23A, spent nearly 40 years frozen in place before finally breaking free,
52
only to get caught in a swirling ocean vortex for another eight months.
53
After that, their paths are influenced by ocean currents, tides, winds, and even underwater topography.
54
They don't just float freely, their movements are full of literal unexpected twists.
55
And speaking of glaciers, another strange rumor is
56
that some humans can't travel more than 311 miles inland in Antarctica because of an impassable ice wall,
57
freezing jet fuel, deadly winds, and no oxygen.
58
But this is completely false.
59
Antarctica has been explored by planes, vehicles, and even scientists on foot.
60
There's an entire research station sitting at the South Pole.
61
People live there all year long.
62
The ice wall is real, a massive ice cliff rising above the ocean, but that isn't some secret barrier, it's an ice shell.
63
These are thick slabs of ice that form when glaciers slowly flow off the land and spread over the ocean.
64
Almost three-fourths of Antarctica's coastline is made up of them, but they don't form some giant ring around the world.
65
Antarctica is one of the most extreme places on Earth, but we've conquered its challenges, and we keep learning more about it every year.
66
That's why every year, millions of dollars are poured into keeping research stations running,
67
protecting wildlife, and making sure the people who live there have everything they need.
68
But where does all this money go?
69
Well, Antarctica stations are basically small cities.
70
There's electricity, heating, water purification, food storage, and medical facilities.
71
The biggest station, McMurdo, is basically a town with over 1,000 people in summer.
72
It has everything from a fire station to a gym.
73
The South Pole Station is super deep inlet, so it's one of the hardest places to supply.
74
Getting food and fuel there requires airplanes flying thousands of miles in extreme cold.
75
But the internet loves a good mystery.
76
When Google Maps revealed what looked like a massive doorway in Antarctica, conspiracy theorists went wild.
77
People joked about everything from Bigfoot's vacation home to a secret base, or even a Star Trek spaceship hangar hidden in the ice.
78
But there's a way simpler and less exciting explanation.
79
It's actually a grounded iceberg, a chunk of ice that got stuck in shallow water and is now slowly melting.
80
As ice moves across the landscape, it flows around bumps and obstacles, creating odd shapes.
81
The process of melting, breaking apart, and refreezing can carve ice into unexpected forms.
82
Antarctica also has incredibly strong downward-blowing winds that sculpt ice into dramatic formations over time.
83
No secret doorway, unfortunately.
84
And speaking of doors, for years, Ushuaia, Argentina, has been called the gateway to Antarctica, the last stop before the icy continent.
85
The place where expeditions begin. But there's another option.
86
Punta Arenas, Chile.
87
Let's compare them.
88
Ushuaia is closer to Antarctica.
89
It's the top departure point for tourists going on cruises.
90
But no regular flights to Antarctica.
91
No major scientific bases operating from here.
92
It's basically controlled by the military, which refuses to allow private flights, only commercially operated ships.
93
Yes, Punta Arenas is further from Antarctica, but 22 countries and global organizations use it as their main base.
94
There are regular flights to Antarctica happening there every year.
95
Private airlines can actually operate here, making it the real air connection to Antarctica.
96
Ushuaia may have the best location physically, but Punta Arenas actually runs the show.
97
Argentina made a huge error in picking its Antarctic airbase.
98
Instead of setting up a simple, accessible base at sea level, they built Marambio Base, very high,
99
on rough terrain, completely impossible to reach by land.
100
Everything has to be flown in by helicopter,
101
making operations slow expensive and frustrating for 50 years argentina stubbornly stuck to this bad decision
102
while chile set up efficient well-planned bases that the world now uses
103
if things don't change uxuaia will be nothing more than a tourist stop but what's terrifying is
104
that antarctica seems to be returning to its past it's supposed to be the coldest place on earth
105
but something shocking happened just recently for the first time in recorded history, temperatures in Antarctica broke 68 degrees Fahrenheit.
106
This continent is buried under miles of ice.
107
Usually, temperatures there can drop to minus 112 degrees.
108
But in the winter of 2020, scientists recorded an insane 69 degrees on Seymour Island, hotter than many places in Europe at that time.
109
Scientists believe there are several reasons for that.
110
First, there are changes in the way heat moves around the planet's waters.
111
Second, melting permafrost due to the planet warming.
112
It looks like the climate is changing faster than expected.
