in the Philippines, our favorite boxer is Pacquiao, and everyone likes his fights, lose or not. Whenever a fight is shown on TV, the crimes rates flatten, and then starts back up until the next fight.

The London tower thing is because the sound via the radio is travelling at the speed of light, where as the sound from the bell to you, is travelling much much much slower at simply the speed of sound
1:30 This is inaccurate. Cats only have one larynx, however, their vocal cords have an extra fold in then called _ventricular cords_ used for purring. So it's not like they have two complete sets, more like one and a half. As a zoologist, I'm full of useless animal facts. For example: the little baleen-looking grooves on a duck's bill are called _lamellae._ Also, those terrifying teeth on a goose's tongue? Those are their taste buds. The Australian possum is more closely related to a kangaroo than it is to the American opossum.
Horses can't throw up, they have three eyelids and they have the same eye that goats have. Feeding a horse something without the owner knowing for a long time can seriously affect their behaviour. There have been cases where passerbys fed horses on a field and the horses started being aggresive. The horses were actually very calm when fed like they were supposed to, but the feeding made a change. And the that's why we don't want strangers feeding our horses.
The eyes not melting thing IS actually a possibility. My friend when went to sleep and ended up waking up to his eyes burning snd he couldn’t see and he has to take medication for life for his immune system to control the white blood cells and something else in order for them to not be attacked and essentially melt away , he has to wear strong glasses for life as well after what they able to save . I can’t remember what it’s called but it’s an actual medical condition. He also gets severe motion sickness in cars.
@@andymanson3836 yea I believe this is what it was he developed. It was so sudden and random. Literally over night they just started melting, glad he caught them when he did but he was in deep to his major wrestling career, constantly driving for travel and such and emt on the side so that really threw stuff for a loop being in cars a lot / needing the vision. Rough to have for sure. Thanks for that ! I’m Sure it’ll help people popping up here/ definitely helped me to remember haha.
Jaguars are the strongest cat in the world relative to their size and have a bite force that allows them to pierce the skulls of crocodilians. Also tiger pee smells like popcorn, so if you smell a theater in India get out before your movie ends without a sequel.
The longest year in history was 45 AC. This is because Julius Ceasar fixed the calendar at that time in history and replaced it with a automatic one that wouldn’t require constant correction. Because of the error of the old calendar, the date was three months behind so he added 90 days to the year 45, therefor making it the longest year in history.
A furry artist was constructing a solid fanbase, career, and drawing skills, years before his brother simply started to do Let's Plays on UA-cam and overtook the number of his brother's accrued clientele and income in less than a single year. You would know that brother by the name of Markiplier.

The reason the bell sound travels faster over the radio is because it's only sound at the input (the microphone) and the output (the radio speaker).

Pluto has five moons. The biggest one, Charon is close enough that ejecta from Pluto's cryo-volcanos has stained part of its surface. Charon is the biggest moon relative to its host planet, and the point they orbit around is not inside Pluto or Charon. The discoverer of Charon wanted to name it after "Char" (his pet name for his wife), but fortunately it turned out that the name was close to that of the ferryman of the dead in Greek myth, making it a good companion for the god of death. On a related subject, Pluto got off easy compared to Ceres, the biggest body in the asteroid belt. It started off as a planet, got downgraded to an *asteroid*, and is currently classed as both a dwarf planet and an asteroid. Finally, Pluto's furthest point from the Sun is 49 AU. The dwarf planet of Sedna has an extreme elliptical orbit that ranges from 76 AU at the closest to 937 AU at its most distant. It's so eccentric that some astronomers have speculated it was stolen from another solar system that the Sun once passed close to.
Oklahoma's state vegetable is watermelon (even tho its a fruit) is because watermelons are related to cucumbers, they exist in the same family tree.

that might actually be possible, since there's no friction in space it will just keep going until it hits something, and even if it were to fly to a relatively advanced civilisation, they wouldn't be able to see it coming because it would be too small to see as any sort of threat. so yes, it is entirely possible that an alien somewhere in the universe has been/will be hit by a manhole cover going faster than the speed of sound

It has been notice by people, and doctors, that powerful tyrants in history have strange physiological condtions that start of as sublte oddities, and become more, and more obvious as they stay in power. They also start behaving oddly. I was watch two different things on Saddam Hussien. One was on PBS and they talked to his Saddam's doctor, who only job was to take care of Hussien. It was just short clip, that was edited abruptly short. He started acting strange, which isn't odd for anyone. Sometimes he would just freeze when talked to him. Other times he was normal, and then he would do things, and have things done that made no sense. A family memeber would do something minorly wrong, and he wanted them killed. Later, he would ask where that person was. They would tell him, "In prison, to be excuted." Saddam would be aghast, and ask why. The person would tell him what they did, and it was his orders. He would counter man his order, and then tell his people, "Don't excute people, when I say to. Just ignore me my commands." No one did that. After while, he just became more, and more that other person. Physically, his vital sign would be out of wack. His blood pressue would bottom out, and heart rate would go up. I don't remember everything, but everything would be off. Then one day the doctor was standing behind Saddem, with a bunch of people standing nect Saddam. The sun light was shinning through everone's ears, and there ears were pink. Saddam's ears were a bright yellow. The was this other video, and they interviewed one of his body guards. They said, "Saddam need alone time, periodically through the day. The guards were to never let other people to see him at these times. The guard were not allowed to see him. Once Saddam was in his bedroom, and alone. Something happen, and someone from the army came, and said, "We are under attack. We must tell Saddam." The guard went into the bedroom, and Saddam was in the bathroom. All these strange noices came from the bathroom, and it sounded like Saddam was pleading with someone. Then the strange noises. The guard went back out in the hall, and waited. It was the same with Hitler. They had rule that no one would go into Hitlers bedroom while he was in there. On D Day, the allied force landed, and everyone was to afraid to go into Hitlers bedroom to wake him. When Hitler came out, they asked, "Shouldn't we wake you next time." Hitler said, "No. I will have that person killed."
The big ben fact makes total sense, cause the noise of the big ben on the radio is travelling at the speed of light, so even with conversion and travelling longer distances it would still be vastly quicker than the speed of sound.
If you are not REALY watchful with anything on your daily life, during your dreams your brain will render it in a extremely poor version and tell you what you see, so you don't notice. Because of that, for most people, everyone on a dream doesn't have a face, skin color and even voice. You hear your own mind voice and think is another's voice. The same happens to how physics work. That's why the movie Inception are fun, but full of fail reality checks, because if you are always paying attention on how a top spins and stops by losing energy, the same is expected to happen on your dream. So, you may ask "How do you know about it if your brain just adapt and make your dreams more realistic?" Simple, it's because i've trained auto hypnosis and to have lucid dreams, so i can be watchful to lots of things and overload my brain so it can't keep up rendering everything perfectly and just "crashes", starting to poorly render everything again and letting me see all of it while conscious. Not gonna lie, the vision of these kind of dream is something worst than your worst nightmares, so you would be really mind fucked by it if not used to strange things. And your brain is expected to not "uncrash", because the switch is already off, so all your dreams turn into lucid, acid like cosmic dreams and you need to choose what you gonna dream and use more "rendering power", so you need extra sleep time to feel rested.
Remembering that clues on random moment of day can help you notice when you are on a dream and take control of it, turning it into a lucid dream. As you are just using your new power to fly or fire lasers from your fingers, you are almost 99% safe from seeing everything like a nightmare. Just DON'T look much into the abyss.
@4:25 Horses consume multiple mega calories per day (I forget how many but I think the average is between 10 and 20). 1 mega calorie = 1 million of the small c calories that we eat.
Well... when we talk about food calories, we mean kilocalories (kcal). Around 2000-2500 kcal per day is a human recommendation, give or take, but that's the ball park. That would be 2-2,5 megacalories, so you are saying horses eat 4-10 times more than us.

The red knot sandpiper, a bird the size of a robin, migrates from southern Argentina to the Canadian tundra _and back_ again every year. If you were to add up the total migration distance over the course of one’s fifteen~ year lifespan, it would equal the distance to the moon and halfway back.

I live in Oklahoma and I didn't even know that the state vegetable was a watermelon. I didn't even know state vegetables were a thing.
I believe state flowers, state animals and possibly state trees are a thing.

There isn't an word for "the day after tomorrow", but a word for "throwing someone out a window"

It has been notice by people, and doctors, that powerful tyrants in history have strange physiological condtions that start of as sublte oddities, and become more, and more obvious as they stay in power. They also start behaving oddly. I was watch two different things on Saddam Hussien. One was on PBS and they talked to his Saddam's doctor, who only job was to take care of Hussien. It was just short clip, that was edited abruptly short. He started acting strange, which isn't odd for anyone. Sometimes he would just freeze when talked to him. Other times he was normal, and then he would do things, and have things done that made no sense. A family memeber would do something minorly wrong, and he wanted them killed. Later, he would ask where that person was. They would tell him, "In prison, to be excuted." Saddam would be aghast, and ask why. The person would tell him what they did, and it was his orders. He would counter man his order, and then tell his people, "Don't excute people, when I say to. Just ignore me my commands." No one did that. After while, he just became more, and more that other person. Physically, his vital sign would be out of wack. His blood pressue would bottom out, and heart rate would go up. I don't remember everything, but everything would be off. Then one day the doctor was standing behind Saddem, with a bunch of people standing nect Saddam. The sun light was shinning through everone's ears, and there ears were pink. Saddam's ears were a bright yellow. The was this other video, and they interviewed one of his body guards. They said, "Saddam need alone time, periodically through the day. The guards were to never let other people to see him at these times. The guard were not allowed to see him. Once Saddam was in his bedroom, and alone. Something happen, and someone from the army came, and said, "We are under attack. We must tell Saddam." The guard went into the bedroom, and Saddam was in the bathroom. All these strange noices came from the bathroom, and it sounded like Saddam was pleading with someone. Then the strange noises. The guard went back out in the hall, and waited. It was the same with Hitler. They had rule that no one would go into Hitlers bedroom while he was in there. On D Day, the allied force landed, and everyone was to afraid to go into Hitlers bedroom to wake him. When Hitler came out, they asked, "Shouldn't we wake you next time." Hitler said, "No. I will have that person killed."

Unlike electric cars, internal combustion cars get lighter the further you drive them.
Is that really that crazy?
It's that it sounds ridiculous rather than it is ridiculous. The majority have to, and will stop to think about it.

The big ben fact makes total sense, cause the noise of the big ben on the radio is travelling at the speed of light, so even with conversion and travelling longer distances it would still be vastly quicker than the speed of sound.

Surely after 31 people enter a room the chance of a birthday being shared is 100%
Nah, why would it be? 100% isn't a probability anymore, it's a certainty. And you can gather up 366 people with a different birthday, if you want to.
@@pohjanvanamo difference is birthDAY not birthDATE ie my birthday is the 31st but my birthDATE is May 31. At least that's how I was taught it.

If you are not REALY watchful with anything on your daily life, during your dreams your brain will render it in a extremely poor version and tell you what you see, so you don't notice.
Because of that, for most people, everyone on a dream doesn't have a face, skin color and even voice. You hear your own mind voice and think is another's voice.
The same happens to how physics work.
That's why the movie Inception are fun, but full of fail reality checks, because if you are always paying attention on how a top spins and stops by losing energy, the same is expected to happen on your dream.
So, you may ask "How do you know about it if your brain just adapt and make your dreams more realistic?"
Simple, it's because i've trained auto hypnosis and to have lucid dreams, so i can be watchful to lots of things and overload my brain so it can't keep up rendering everything perfectly and just "crashes", starting to poorly render everything again and letting me see all of it while conscious.
Not gonna lie, the vision of these kind of dream is something worst than your worst nightmares, so you would be really mind fucked by it if not used to strange things. And your brain is expected to not "uncrash", because the switch is already off, so all your dreams turn into lucid, acid like cosmic dreams and you need to choose what you gonna dream and use more "rendering power", so you need extra sleep time to feel rested.
Remembering that clues on random moment of day can help you notice when you are on a dream and take control of it, turning it into a lucid dream.
As you are just using your new power to fly or fire lasers from your fingers, you are almost 99% safe from seeing everything like a nightmare. Just DON'T look much into the abyss.

@4:25 Horses consume multiple mega calories per day (I forget how many but I think the average is between 10 and 20). 1 mega calorie = 1 million of the small c calories that we eat.
Well... when we talk about food calories, we mean kilocalories (kcal). Around 2000-2500 kcal per day is a human recommendation, give or take, but that's the ball park.
That would be 2-2,5 megacalories, so you are saying horses eat 4-10 times more than us.

Do nuclear fallout shelters count as bunkers?
Then Switzerland has more. Up until 2012 this was the law: "Every inhabitant must have a protected place that can be reached quickly from his place of residence". Since 2012 houses for 1 family no longer need to have a nuclear fallout shelter built in.
It's like the world's dictators are just repressed nerds with actual power.
The red knot sandpiper, a bird the size of a robin, migrates from southern Argentina to the Canadian tundra _and back_ again every year. If you were to add up the total migration distance over the course of one’s fifteen~ year lifespan, it would equal the distance to the moon and halfway back.
Cool. Arctic tern has the longest migration though.
Edit: Ps. I just realised, it could very well be called /antarctic tern/ as well 😅 Well, it is how it is 😅

That the measurement of a foot is based off the length of the kings foot who set the standard and the the distance of a mile was set by measuring how many feet were between one town and another, but the guy they sent to count didn't know how to count and he just said random numbers as an answer while the actual distance between the town is actually like 3 and a half miles by the measurement he gave off what a mile was
