I have a friend who says the glaciar age produced the peak humans.

he says the cold,the need for hunting meat worked as extreme natural selection,therefore only strong,smart,good hunters with a drive to survive survived and left children, thus hose humans born from extreme conditions were the best possible ones.

Is that theory accurate?

You mean the Ice Age? Most people got the fuck outta the cold and migrated into warmer areas so I don't see how they were "born in extreme conditions"

It was not the ice age itself that produce stronger human, it's agriculture that produce shorter, often malnutritioned, and frail individual but stronger socially.

>malnutritioned

You mean unbalanced diet?

Have you ever heard about famine?

Some group of people aren't entirely depended on agriculture. Manchurians had a mix of hunting and farming.

if there was anything wrong with short height zulus,being the tallest,would be the most clever and advanzed humans.

That's what malnutrition means, insufficient or unbalanced diet.

>>36014

>zulus,being the tallest

They're not the tallest, the tallest people in the world are in the Balkans and Netherlands.

Height is correlated with quality of life, and if a population gets taller it probably means diet and overall health has improved. It doesn't really help at confronting different populations though, as far as I know.

and this is why the eskimo are the masterrace

>>36015

actually the tallest people would be dinka, nuer or maasai — if you look at pre-industrial height, the dutch only got this tall recently due to modern diet

balkans is very divided though, montenegrins are tall as fuck while the neighbouring albanians are short

Conclusion is fine, but the theory isn't.

If you don't want to watch Vice garbage, fine.

Just go look up Wim Hof the Iceman. He has dozens of world records and climbed Mount Everest in his shorts. Those are the things you need to know, not whatever Vice inserts into it.
