We don't need to watch a Homo Sapien bang a Homo Neanderthal to know if they could interbreed because modern humans have neanderthal DNA...

Some people have Denovasian too, and Denovasians had some Neanderthal as well.

Like, what more evidence do you expect to have before known written language? You want cave drawing version of pornhub to prove it?

We know because their genes live on in modern humans, interbreeding was possible.

Fun fact:

The reason cave paintings are blurry may be because a flickering torch combined with a shrinking amount of oxygen can lead to them appearing to move like a gif...

So, like, by a certain definition the vids may exist.

But it would be hard to clearly differentiate unless it's like that gif of Futurama death by snu snu.
