Diamonds Aren't Rare — Here's What They Never Told You

For 3–4 billion years, a carbon atom sat 100 miles beneath your feet, crushed under pressures that would obliterate anything mankind has ever built — and then, in a violent geological instant, it was launched toward the surface faster than the speed of sound.

In this video, we strip away the marketing and go back to the real story — one that is far more extraordinary than anything De Beers ever sold you.
