      Yoo ZT is that a bells of steel bar? I've got a little home set up and I'm trying to find a good oly bar that isn't too expensive, liking bells of steel as an option bc I'm in Canada. I know you were using their industrial bar in earlier videos, just wondering if the b.o.s is a better option. Love your content big boy!

    @zacktelander So, mentioning dialed animals, look into "carcinization." Term that's been around for 100 years about how there have been so many different ways that crabs have evolved convergently. Like, there's 5 different major groups that have evolved into crabs and 15 different paths that I know of. Wild shit. Crabs aren't dialed. But everything else dials into crab.

    Dylan isn't wrong about the lobsters. There's a number of animals and plants, that just like lobsters exhibit something called "negligible senescence, which basically means that once they reach maturity, they don't really show any signs of degenerating with age. Mortality doesn't go up, reproductive rate, etc etc, all remains basically the same. A few species have even been observed to be "biologically immortal, such as hydras. There are even some species that exhibit negative senescence, where their mortality rates go down as age increases. It's pretty fuggin' fascinating.
