Of course, the video does nothing but (as the author notes at the end of
the article) reinforce the idea of evolution as a linear process with us
at the top. If you are looking for a video to more accurately illustrate
the concept, possibly you could look to The X-Men.

Even among those who champion evolutionary thinking, I suspect it is a
conscious-raising experience to shake the idea of evolution as a linear
process, with us at the top, and the wheels of evolution taking a rest
.....
Neat video, too.
