This is absolutely wrong.

CARBAN DATING ACTUALLY CAN'T BE USED TO CALCULATE THE AGE OF OLD FOSSILS.

Radiocarbon dating (sometimes simply known as carbon dating) is a radiometric dating method that uses the naturally occurring radioisotope carbon-14 (14C) to estimate the age of carbonaceous materials up to about 58,000 to 62,000 years.
