The flood, 00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:53.519 known as the Zankli Mega Flood, occurred when 00:10:53.519 --> 00:10:56.120 mountains sank, allowing water to surge into 00:10:56.120 --> 00:11:00.019 the basin at astonishing speeds of 72 miles per 00:11:00.019 --> 00:11:04.159 hour. This flood transformed the region, triggering 00:11:04.159 --> 00:11:07.220 earthquakes and creating massive waterfalls 30 00:11:07.220 --> 00:11:10.960 times taller than Niagara. While marine life 00:11:10.960 --> 00:11:13.539 struggled to adapt, the Mediterranean eventually 00:11:13.539 --> 00:11:16.960 evolved into a biodiversity hotspot.
