Hi, I am looking for a complete history of the world documentary. All the way from Cambrian explosion to modern day. It can be a YouTube video or documentary. Please advise. Thanks!

@HistoryoftheEarth on YouTube is exactly what you’re describing (I think)

The Ascent of Man is a 13 part documentary series covering human history through a scientific view point. It's old (produced in the early 70's), but still quite good. Findable on youtube.

For a broader overview of world history, look for documentaries like The History of the World in Two Hours or The Ascent of Man. These series cover more recent human history alongside geological and evolutionary milestones. If you're interested in comprehensive streaming options, services like CuriosityStream also have extensive historical documentaries.

Crash Course has a 43 part series of short videos are short and simple enough to appeal to students, yet in depth enough to provide a decent overview.
