Lyrics

[00:00.938] 【Jacob Bronowski】
[00:07.363] Man is a singular creature;
[00:12.178] He has a set of gifts which make him unique among the animals
[00:17.641] So that unlike them, he is not a figure in the landscape
[00:24.255] He is the shaper of the landscape
[00:26.971] 【Alice Roberts】
[00:27.214] We are all children of Africa
[00:32.328] They say this is where it all began
[00:37.365] 【Bronowski】
[00:37.957] In a parched African landscape
[00:40.488] Man first put his foot to the ground
[00:47.760] 【Roberts】
[00:48.584] Africa was our only home
[00:51.055] for tens of thousands of years
[00:54.143] until a small handful of people made their way
[00:57.721] out of Africa
[00:59.264] 【Carolyn Porco】
[00:59.484] These beings with soaring imagination
[01:04.255] Eventually flung themselves and their machines
[01:08.070] Into interplanetary space
[01:10.781] These beings with soaring imagination
[01:14.855] Eventually flung themselves and their machines
[01:18.615] Into interplanetary space
[01:24.996] 【Roberts】
[01:25.472] We are all children of africa
[01:30.426] This landscape has been home to humans
[01:33.548] Two hundred thousand years
[01:35.625] 【Porco】
[01:35.869] We have come so far
[01:38.002] All of this is cause for great celebration
[01:41.424] We have come so far
[01:43.362] This is a story about us
[01:45.241] 【Roberts】
[01:46.379] Those early Europeans
[01:49.126] Were people like you and me
[01:51.843] But it is humbling
[01:54.384] When you see the challenges they faced
[01:57.414] People like you and me
[02:00.059] Overcame the Neaderthals
[02:02.776] People like you and me
[02:05.290] Made it through the ice age
[02:07.227] 【Carolyn Porco】
[02:07.633] These beings with soaring imagination
[02:13.076] Eventually flung themselves and their machines
[02:16.708] Into interplanetary space
[02:22.552] 【Jane Goodall】
[02:22.843] We are not the only beings
[02:25.440] With personalities, minds, and feelings
[02:28.385] Chimpanzees have very clear personalities
[02:33.641] 【Robert Sapolsky】
[02:33.884] Take a chimp brain fetally
[02:36.773] And let it go two or three more rounds of division
[02:40.071] And out comes symphonies and ideology
[02:44.394] 【Neil deGrasse Tyson】
[02:44.657] Everything that we are
[02:46.971] That distinguishes us from chimps
[02:49.800] Emerges from that one percent
[02:52.644] Difference in DNA
[02:53.579] 【Roberts】
[02:55.025] People like you and me
[02:58.057] Overcame the Neaderthals
[03:00.657] People like you and me
[03:03.220] Made it through the ice age
[03:05.186] 【Carolyn Porco】
[03:05.546] These beings with soaring imagination
[03:10.721] Eventually flung themselves and their machines
[03:14.678] Into interplanetary space
[03:17.744] These beings with soaring imagination
[03:21.702] Eventually flung themselves and their machines
[03:25.437] Into interplanetary space
[03:29.334] 【David Attenborough】
[03:30.182] Using his burgeoning intelligence,
[03:32.502] This most successful of all mammals
[03:35.237] Has exploited the environment to produce food
[03:38.626] For an ever increasing population.
[03:40.703] Instead of controlling the environment
[03:43.544] For the benefit of the population
[03:45.865] Perhaps it's time we controlled the population
[03:49.230] To allow the survival of the environment
[03:52.230]
[03:53.230]
[03:54.230]
