In September of 1940, an 18-year-old mechanic named Marcel Ravidat was walking his dog, Robot, in the countryside of Southwestern France when the dog disappeared down a hole. Robot eventually returned but the next day, Ravidat went to the spot with three friends to explore the hole.
And after quite a bit of digging, they discovered a cave with walls covered with paintings, including over 900 paintings of animals, horses, stags, bison and also species that are now extinct, including a wooly rhinoceros. The paintings were astonishingly detailed and vivid with red, yellow and black paint made from pulverized mineral pigments that were usually blown through a narrow tube, possibly a hollowed bone, onto the walls of the cave. It would eventually be established that these artworks were at least 17,000 years old.

Imagine those kids thinking, "We need to protect this" as the entire rest of their world was being torn to pieces. Pretty amazing.
"If you've ever been a child"
βArt is not optional for humans.β
"This a handprint, but not a hand. This is a memory you can't return to." This made me cry somehow.
βNo man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man.β - Heraclitus
20k years later : scientists are confused why there is 2 caves with almost the same cave art
"ALMOST AS IF ART ISN'T OPTIONAL FOR HUMANS."
This made me feel similar to the βthrowing a rock into a lake may seem simple but you could be the last person to touch that rock till the end of timeβ thing
John: why are there only paintings of animals ? ?
"we hoped you liked it"
When I started watching this video, I didn't realise how emotional it would make me...
This honestly gave me a sort of...existential melancholic longing.
Every Kurzgesagt video:
β...today weβre gonna do something different...β
My favorite story about these handprint walls is that because they are negatives, the handprints look a little bigger than the hands were, so for a little too long they claimed children and most women didnβt take part. But thereβs a handprint of a child much too high for them to have reached on their own, so they mustβve sat on an adults shoulders to reach. I just will always hold that image close to my heart
Imagine the family in the cave when one of their own dies. They would grieve their loss and with tears in their eyes place their hand on the print of their relative's hand on the wall.
When he said "its almost as if art is not an option for humans but a requirement" i was shook
Kurzgesagt: *apologizes for not having a normal video
The fact that kid in 1940 had a dog named Robot was definitely a note worth keeping in... for some reason I never thought an 18 year old in 1940 would be familiar with the concept of an autonomous robot
