What Happened to the Dinosaurs?

The video explores the mystery of dinosaur extinction, focusing on two main theories: the asteroid impact and volcanic eruptions. Jesse and Squeaks investigate the asteroid theory in Mexico, where a massive asteroid is believed to have caused significant environmental changes, leading to the extinction of many species. The video also discusses the volcanic eruption theory, which suggests that prolonged volcanic activity in India could have contributed to the extinction. Despite various clues, the exact cause remains a mystery, highlighting the challenges in understanding Earth's ancient history.
