Interesting. That first animation the video showed is funny because I know what it is really showing. As the video explains it doesn't work like that. That idea of the animation comes from an old alchemist secret.

The secret was by making water vapor, or better making hydrogen by magnesium in water or electrolysis, and then applying static electric while flowing fresh air through... The nitrogen naturally in the air will get some hydrogens stuck on it making ammonium salts magically drop out of the invisible mixture. When you see the structure of a DNA base and it shows a nitrogen in it's ring it is actually an ammonium. But that makes only one part.

I watched some other experts in the field asked their thoughts on this and they referenced the reason why they believed random evolution creating life was utterly impossible. The first thing for them to come to mind was the complexity of the tail of the human sperm. It is so mechanically and chemically complex and impressive that random evolution could never make it.

The interesting thing is the tail of the sperm is the same as the center pillar of a cell that facilitates cell division. They are called mother and daughter. Actually 2 pillars one at 90 degrees of the other like a cross which fascinated me into a bunch of research into it. Wikipedia sucks but does have some of the main info.

as a group, this has a section mentioning possible evolution or lack there of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrosome

Yes. Entropy is the law.
