| Video Discription | How did humans end up walking on two feet? Join EOS students in NUI Galway’s class of 2019 as we WALK through some of the biomechanical adaptions which allowed our fossil ancestors to become bipedal and walk upright. Bipedalism, along with increase in brain size, are both considered key developments in the evolution of humans. This short film explores some of the proposed hypotheses for these evolutionary changes and it discusses some of the potential outcomes from this biomechanical adaptation to a bipedal way of life. We hope you enjoy watching! Ape – X Team: Aifric Burke, Éadaoin Ní Chaoilte, Jake Shiel, Liam Strachan and Ruaihri Strachan Filmed on location: Barna Woods, Galway, Co.
