141. The Aquatic Ape Theory

Anthropologists have gone back and forward for decades about the exact timeframe of human life on Earth. Gorillas, Chimps, Bonobos, Orangutans and Humans, all of which are referred to as the Greater Apes and out of our evolutionary cousins, we are vastly different. We look nothing alike. We act nothing alike. We are structured differently. With all of the differences we see between ourselves and our Ape cousins, we need to ask the question. What went so different for us? The other Apes evolved from those that moved with the shrinking forest, and we evolved from those that took to the plains. It was this that led Humans to develop bipedalism, hairless skin, toolmaking, increased intelligence, and verbal communications. Or so science believed. Long story short, this was proved false but we're not here to dissect this concept, instead we’re here to discuss a specific possibility of our history. One that mainstream science immediately denies under any and all circumstances. Today we dive into a theory that doesn’t place us into the vast plains or the Forests of Africa. But the borders in which land meets sea. Instead we dive deep into the most rejected possibility of them all. Today we look into the Aquatic Ape Theory! And welcome back to Infinite Rabbit Hole.
