What explains the rise of human

Seventy thousand years ago, our human ancestors were insignificant animals, just minding their own business in a corner of Africa with all the other animals. 
But now, few would disagree that humans dominate planet Earth; we've spread to every continent, and our actions determine the fate of other animals (and possibly Earth itself).
 How did we get from there to here? 
Historian Yuval Noah Harari suggests a surprising reason for the rise of humanity.
This talk was presented at an official TED conference, and was featured by our editors on the home page.
