Problems before, my BP was through the roof, like 220/140, they called my PCP and had to give me something and do an EKG before they would proceed. Then I came to half way through it and that was tough. Then I puked for 3-4 days and was sicker than a dog for about 10 days total.

Explorer and scientist Paul Sereno made an extraordinary discovery in the middle of the Sahara desert: While prospecting for dinosaur bones, he stumbled across an ancient human cemetery more than 5,000 years older than the Egyptian pyramids. Who were these people and what were they doing in the middle of the desert? How did they live and die? What can this mystery tell us about our planet?

Getting back to the video, once on the internet it will probably never go away.
