Evolution - The Greatest Show on Earth



We've seen the autotune versions of the wonders of the cosmos featuring the late Carl Sagan, this is " A musical celebration of the wonders of biology, including evolution, natural selection, DNA, and more". The video features David Attenborough, Richard Dawkins and Bill Nye and includes Victoria's Rifle Bird footage filmed up here in Far North Queensland. "The Greatest Show on Earth" is the 13th video in the Symphony of Science music videos series. Materials used in this video are from:


Richard Dawkins' "There is grandeur in this view of life" speech
BBC Life
BBC Planet Earth
David Attenborough's First Life
Charles Darwin and the Tree of Life
Bill Nye Evolution episode


It's the latest part of the Symphony of Science, created by musician John D. Boswell.
