as much attention as they put on tools,the sling got enough. Not too informative or interesting for a slinger but it was more of a big picture documentary. But with movies like this i always think that it was probably quite different how it is depicted. On the surface it might be quite close but more deeply into it might be quite different. Think about it,even with things we know much more closely and detailed than how things were a 100.000 years ago,for example other cultures that live not far away in the present,most of us have a quite a different view of how they are,what they do etc than it truely is. Even when you see it actually,you compare it to your personal background and experiences,so you get a subjective view of it. In this documentary or whatever it is,they depict our ancestors life as everyday struggle and constant fear, and killed and get killed and a step from dieing which might have been on some occasions but the big picture was probably not that.They were just as familiar or much more familiar with their environment than we are.Obviously had the knowledge,understanding,skill,stamina to survive.Of course sometimes they got hurt or killed or get killed but surely not on a daily basis. Also they tend to depict as the homo sapiens got "to the top" by killing every humanoid and every animal that got in the way.The ultimate killer,which again happened but evidence suggest that humans were helping out each other with spreading information,sharing food,water,tools etc. This was and is a huge factor in surviving and living better. Anyways it's good food for thought,thanks for sharing!
