Explanation: Do you have a minute -- to see the entire backstory of human
existence? This thrilling video [5] culls together multiple teasing video
snippets in an attempt to succinctly summarize our history. And sets it to
music. Briefly depicted, from start to finish, is an artistic animation of the
Big Bang [6] , a trip across [7]  the early universe, the formation of the
Earth and Moon [8] , the emergence of multi-celled life and plants, the rise
of reptiles [9]  and dinosaurs [10] , a devastating meteor strike [11] , the
rise of mammals [12]  and humans [13] , and finally the rise of modern
civilization [14] . The minute movie ends with a flyover of the modern
skyscraper [15]  and a human standing atop a snow covered mountain [16] .
