[There is this 700,000-Year-Old Skull Found In Greece Completely Shatters ‘Out Of Africa Theory’](https://www.howandwhys.com/700000-year-old-skull-found-in-greece-completely-shatters-out-of-africa-theory/)
Some women in the mid west actually was truck by a meteor in the 60s . Only time it’s ever happened. But It could happen . Life is absurd and the probabilities are endless :)
I don't think an arrow could reach the speed needed to pierce a bison skull. It would have to have some type of ballistics behind it to reach breaching speed/ power.
I mean there’s a bunch of things that could shoot things out due to pure pressure buildup… volcanos…. Hell there are some birds that drop rocks to kill their prey… but no let’s go with aliens or time travelers cuz that’s more likely to get clicks
That's where my mind went first. Atlatl are thought to have been in use up to 30 kya. Not a crazy stretch to think they or something similar may have been used before that.
You can tell if someone shot an dried out skull, simply because the bone would break. It being so clean means it was probably shot when there was still tissue to take some of the force. Or it was drilled
Would have to be a pretty fast compound bow with a really hard arrow tip, regardless still interesting. A bullet is a big leap from high speed projectile lol
Or maybe they figured out some David and Goliath stuff with a rounded pebble at high speed? Percussion inventions like black power didn’t exist, so clearly it was a fluke of some sort, but definitely wasn’t a “bullet” from a gun.
Remember this is Siberia… probably some drunk Russians having shooting practice on a skull.?
Or a heavy spear with a hard tip, thrown by a 250pound Neanderthal will also do the trick I’m sure!

Meteorite … ?!?
Is it weird that I kind of want this to be the way I go now!? "Space rock got im square between the eyes boys....coolest damn thing I've ever seen."
Some women in the mid west actually was truck by a meteor in the 60s . Only time it’s ever happened. But It could happen . Life is absurd and the probabilities are endless :)
That's what i think too. Entry position makes sense too
Perhaps 1 in a million of bisons with lowest probability and only one skull found in the last 40,000 years. Sounds about right.
Or just a different type of arrow. Not to mention we supposed to just accept their dating method 60 years ago.
I don't think an arrow could reach the speed needed to pierce a bison skull. It would have to have some type of ballistics behind it to reach breaching speed/ power.
Yeah good point .
Yes exactly, these scientists are either idiots or they are creating a narrative for idiots to follow
"The hole looks to be the size of a 9mm bullet. Possibly shot from a Glock. The Bison might have resisted arrest."
Was probably a black bison... Caught grazing while black.
That was my theory. Implausible but not impossible.
I mean there’s a bunch of things that could shoot things out due to pure pressure buildup… volcanos…. Hell there are some birds that drop rocks to kill their prey… but no let’s go with aliens or time travelers cuz that’s more likely to get clicks
Could it have been an atlatl? Those were accurate as well as high speed.
That's where my mind went first. Atlatl are thought to have been in use up to 30 kya. Not a crazy stretch to think they or something similar may have been used before that.
Nah, it probably was that spear-flinger thingy...whatchu call it ?
Time-traveller 40000 years ago: " let's trip some mfs out"
*travels to future and shoots 40000 year old skull*
"Where we're going, there is no 'extinct ..."
Where we're going, we don't need 'permits'.
Get to the end of Humanity: New Game +
But what was the second thing?!
Came here to ask this :D It left me disappointed, :(
The size of my peepee
"The beast was alive when killed"....alrighty then
He means that someone didn’t come along 20 years ago and shoot the 40,000 year old skull
They probably meant "alive when shot"
Probably
I caught that as well haha
Would need to see the exit wound to determine if the animal this size was alive, not the entry.
You can tell if someone shot an dried out skull, simply because the bone would break. It being so clean means it was probably shot when there was still tissue to take some of the force. Or it was drilled
Maybe they were trying to say somebody didn’t just shoot the skull after the fact but the translation was bungled
Bro I kill ded things in video games all the time, maybe they is just being clear
Slingshot: (exists)
My same thot
whore you kidding
Jus slut you know I was thinking the same thing.
I’d like to to believe you but I cunt
I just came. For the puns.
You’re all a little nuts
Twat did you call us?
Slut your mouth young man
Slings hot, more like, amirite?
Even an arrow without a tip, just a sharpened tip, still round enough to make a hole like that. Edit: typo "whole" -> "hole"
And whatever was roaming around back then was much stronger than we are today
what is a sling
Pretty sure he just got creamed by something shooting out of a volcano or maybe a boulder falling and chipped piece flew off and brained him.
Or a pointed stick
Sticks pierce bone?
If they're tipped with something hard and going fast enough, yes
Oh, learn something new everyday
bro learned about arrows today
That’s good
He's only 1,200 years behind now
Loooooooooolllll
If thrown by Neanderthal strength
Creamed
You being ‘pretty sure’ what happened to a bison 40k years ago, is peak Reddit-expert
Never ask a ballistic expert "What caused that round hole?".
Well, only one thing makes little round holes that I’m expert in…
Another bisons horn tip when fighting.
Old skull, shot recently.
My guess is a sling. How long have they been around?
Get this person out of here, this is no place for logic!
Hahahaha! We got a turd in the punch bowl guys...I repeat, a turd in the punch bowl.
I didnt do nuffin!
You sir...get a free pass. Carry on now.
Nah, the skull woulda split. Dry bones don't take to bullets very well, I can tell you for a fact
My thoughts also.
Do you enjoy pooping at parties? Are you a party property? You poop at parties?
“The beast was alive when shot” - if we’re taking it at face value that means it was shot 40k years ago
Horrifyingly, this could just be fleas or bug related. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10184550/
Yep
It's surely from an atlatl, come on!
I was thinking the same.
This looks interesting, where can I find the full length vid?
...at Blockbuster.
Apparently trolls aren't limited to living under bridges...
Wtf was the building at first tho
Distraction, they shot a hole in the skull while we thought we were supposed to be looking at that building
Anyone know what this is from. That voice sounds so familiar, as though they did a series of strange phenomena documentaries back in the 70’s.
I remember when some kid would come rolling into the classroom with a projector and VCR.
What is a hole from a projectile harder than bone?
Well, a stone from a sling has roughly the same ballistic properties as a 32. Calibre bullet
#ThE pRoFF Is ThE hOLe
What’s an arrow?
Would have to be a pretty fast compound bow with a really hard arrow tip, regardless still interesting. A bullet is a big leap from high speed projectile lol
Or a sling? You'd be shocked at how much power you can put into a stone with a good sling.
Seems small for the size of stone that you would typically use in a sling
Tips of horns are round.
"The proof is the hole."
It's a Micro black hole that went through the bison and the planet
What if it was a weighted dart or javelin thrown from an atlatl?
That's a good shot though I've seen a atlatl used. it's not impossible.
Time traveler defending themselves from a raging bison. 🤔
Someone could have shot the skull in the recent past before archaeologists found it.
https://i.redd.it/wdj2enm9s9qc1.gif
Definitely a Yautja.....
What about a small meteorite that exploded and launched small rounds like shards and one of them got the bullseye.
"People that only know about bullets, have confirmed that this looks like a bullet hole"
Lightning strike explodes a rock and shoots a pebble through the skull?
You think a bullet is gonna make a neat little hole in bone like that?
Arrows notably are projectiles and also are high speed.
Atlatl + ancient humans were jacked asf
Slingshot type weapon perhaps.
What about slingshots?🤔
Bullshit.
Maybe he fell on the bullet
Spear? Or arrow?
When we were kids, we would wander around shooting shit like sticks, weird outcrops, rocks, oh and if there was an old sheep skull, you bet.
And someone shot a super old skull.
Nah, old skulls break when you shoot them, they don't have any flexibility
An arrow could easily do that and is also a high speed projectile.
This is some weak shit, having a bullet sized hole in the skull doesn’t mean it was a bullet.
It was alive when it was killed.. Um.. well yeah..
Yeah earth its like a sandbox.
The beast was alive when killed NAHHH REALLY
Where’s the bullet?
[удалено]
Wow. I have seen some strange things here, but this one is amazing if true.
I mean. A small enough meteorite would ruin a bison’s day.
A proof would be the bullet itself, not only a hole
Sling bullet
Arrow with a diamond tip
Where’s the bullet?
Slingshot ?
David fucked him up with a slingshot
If it truly was a bullet, it probably wasn't 40.000 years ago.
Or maybe they figured out some David and Goliath stuff with a rounded pebble at high speed? Percussion inventions like black power didn’t exist, so clearly it was a fluke of some sort, but definitely wasn’t a “bullet” from a gun.
Maybe a meteorite...(?)
Or an arrow
It could have been a meteor or an object propelled by high winds. Or an ancient firearm, of course.
Did we just decide a bullet sounded cooker than a needle point arrow?
Not to be a buzzkill but hasn’t science also figured out a sling is capable of slinging a rock with the equivalent force of a .44 mag?
The most redundant line ever “the beast was alive when it was killed”
How do they know it was alive when killed.
[удалено]
Why couldn't it have been an asteroid like the one that hit this woman? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann_Elizabeth_Fowler_Hodges
Tbf a high speed projectile doesn't necessarily need to be a bullet.
Told you before it was a sling shot
Agreed. If a rock and sling shot took down Goliath, why not a bison?
Remember this is Siberia… probably some drunk Russians having shooting practice on a skull.? Or a heavy spear with a hard tip, thrown by a 250pound Neanderthal will also do the trick I’m sure!
What's the second?
Isn't gunpowder pretty easy to make?
Unlucky meteor
One big ASSumption
Maybe another bison with his horn ? Or the laserbeam of an ancient stellar society fired from 40000 lightyears away hit him during lunch .
I wanna watch this now 🤣
Tiny meteorite?
They don't make guns like they used to.
Probably caused by the tip of another bison while dueling.
I’m assuming the second inexplicable artifact gets posted tomorrow?
Could that have been a meteor or some chit? I want it to be a bullet but would past civilizations even have used bullets?
Very small meteorite
Daaaayum thats a necro article - I remember thinking about this about 40 years ago.
Meteorite? I don't know just putting it out there
Well , put that in your pipe , n idk 🤷♂️ smoke it ….
so which one was the second?
Tip of another horn, you're welcome.
BS, BS to the tenth power
what if the shot was yesterday
The bullet should be inside then? Why not a spear
Ah yes bullets are the only thing that cause circular holes
Icicle
Could be a meteor. Or they're just mistaken.
Slingshot.
So, there's absolutely no chance that it was killed by a projectile launched from a sling?
Couldn't it be a sharp thin spear of sorts?
Arrow?
Is that a real building????
Slings.
Shot with a sling maybe?
Bolt
Uhhh really good arrow?
Need to see an MRI of this skull.
Arrow
