For thousands of years, Neanderthals roamed the earth: but in a flash, they disappeared from history. The Neanderthal extinction is one of history's most baffling mysteries. But new information might solve this enduring riddle; scientists believe the Neanderthal was wiped out when a super volcano erupted 39,000 years ago. We follow a team of scientists as they investigate this volcanic annihilation theory. And, if a super volcano spelled the end for Neanderthals, could a future eruption drive humans to extinction?
