That video showed a time when the earth was smaller and had no oceans, but it did have dinosaurs. Please explain how the dinosaurs preceded aquatic life based on the Genesis account where aquatic life was created on day 5 and land animals on day 6.

The video also mentioned this occurring about 65 million years ago. I thought you were contending for a young earth.

The author of the video thinks the earth grew over millions of years.
I say it grew mostly during and for some centuries after the flood.
Genesis 10:25
1 Chronicles 1:19

Why? I don't know. Maybe some change in gravity, as there are
signs that the moon and mars both grew also.

There was not a perfect coverage of land around the earth. There
were seas enough to support whales, large fish and dinosaurs. Just
nothing like those today covering ~70% of the surface of the world.

There is no subduction of plates.
There is one big subduction zone along the edges of the Pacific Ocean, which is growing smaller. That is why, for example, there is a ridge of mountains stretching from Alaska to the tip of South America, being pushed up by the Pacific plate being subducted under the continental plates.

Noach's Ark Was Not A Boat Like So Many Illustrations In Children's Books


According to eyewitness accounts by George Hagopian (1904-06) and Ed Davis (1943)
the Ark didn't have the shape of a boat as depicted by so many artist's illustrations.

Elfred Lee painting of Ark from eyewitness account by Armenian, George Hagopian.
He provided a detailed description in 1972 to artist Elfred Lee. The impression was
more than just a few knew about its location, and had visited the site during
years of unseasonably warm weather when most of the Ark was exposed.

Composite sketch by Elfred Lee as remembered by George Hagopian
and years later by Ed Davis when it appeared the Ark had broken apart.

Yes, I agree the ark would not have been like todays boats which have a bow and a stern and a starboard side and a port side. They are directional because they are steered from point A to point B. In the Flood there would have been no steering, God was the pilot, not Noach. It was not a boat it was a survival capsule.

But probably for the sake of what people have in their minds about what a ark is they built that with a bit of bow in front.
