These humans are crazy. They're stone cold everywhere these days, am I right? An example? I went to buy some milk for my cereal last night and guess who cashed me out? A human.
Indeed, humans originated in Africa about 200,000 years ago, but they now inhabit every continent, with a total population of over 6.6 billion, as of 2007. Some of them have made tons of money: Bill Gates. Some of them have advanced us in the realm of science and invention: Nikola Tesla. Some just make us laugh: Richard Jeni.
And I often find, not enough people know the story of how we came to be. I had an aquatics teacher explain to me once that humans learned to swim from fear of dinosaur. Dinosaur! He could use a little 'Becoming Human' in his life and so could you. Experience the evolution of where humans came from and journey through this compelling interactive documentary.
