How the Earth Was Made [Blu-ray]

Movie / Show Details

How the Earth Was Made is a 2007 documentary directed by Peter Chin and Peter Chinn that traces our planet’s geological evolution from its origins as molten rock to a world capable of supporting life. Narrated by Edward Herrmann and featuring geologist Geoffrey Boulton and paleontologist Gary Stevens, the film examines the cataclysmic events that shaped Earth over billions of years, including meteor bombardment, ice ages, continental movement, and the formation of an atmosphere. Through these transformative periods, a once-hostile, toxic world became the refuge for life as we know it.

This single-disc Blu-ray release from History Channel runs 90 minutes and carries a not-rated designation. The documentary employs cutting-edge visual effects and on-location filming at geologically significant sites to illustrate Earth’s violent and dramatic history, exploring everything from the creation of continents to the emergence of complex organisms and mass extinction events.
