Cool findings: The Crazy Evolution of Men
I came across this beautiful Boolab Studioanimation video of the human evolution. Using the stop-motion technique and basically just pen and paper, they've created a really funny and entertaining video that shows in a lovely way a pretty quick overview of our history as human beings.

The production of this video is also very startling, it's slow paced...
