Vsauce is the art of presenting something, asking a seemingly unrelated question and then ending the video with a connection of the answer, and the something.
FireHun20 The joke is that Michael commonly uses football fields as big units of measurement. The statement is true but very obvious. And now the joke is ruined because I explained it.
I swear, if Michael was running a lemonade stand and I asked him how good it was, I would end up learning the laws of thermodynamics and quantum physics.
The brightest thing in the universe is the light from my smartphone screen when I get a text while I'm trying to sleep. I can never squint hard enough.
the fact that 2 completely different civilizations that probably didnt even known each other took both this symbol while it was a black holes eating stars thing that humanity would find out in thousands of years later its just crazy
Made me think because living in mexico in the city you still can see the stars more clearly. I use to go to the country side with to my extented family.for vacation and its a small spured area. Houses can be close together but at the same time far apart feom other small homes and the atreet lights were also spured and far apart so when it's night time its really dark ams the sky is littered with millions of stars. It was beautiful. When i was 8 i came to the US and was disappointed at how empty the sky is.
That's true of all things in life. What makes you strongest hurts the most. What gives you the most knowledge is the hardest to understand. The concept of Yin and Yang is everywhere, but just like the dichotomy of black holes and quasars, because it is everywhere it becomes hard to notice. What is most abundant is the hardest to see.
...Because we don't even know if "Dark matter" is actually a form of matter. It's just an unknown source of gravity. Neil DeGrasse Tyson has said a more appropriate name for it would actually be "dark gravity." And this isn't to be confused with dark energy either, which is the mysterious force responsible for the expansion of the universe to keep accelerating (which we can observe and have shown in experiments) as opposed to eventually slowing down like we would have guessed.
Deathbrewer well no the main reason he said that is because dark matter doesn't interact with light as far as we can tell. So it doesn't have a brightness so to speak
There must be a global holiday in which every light city should be turned off for at least 10 minutes, so that we can appreciate the beauty of a truly night sky
When I go camping in the summer, there are obviously lights. I would always sneak out with my dad and look at the stars because the sky would be full with them, like almost more stars than black.
joe mama same, I do it almost everyweek, We go to a cabin we bought, it was basically a second house, i don’t even know why we call it a cabin, the top floor is the roof that has a telescope a dome, not too large and not too big, we sleep there usually
it's crazy that this is made before we even had an accurate idea of what a black hole's accretion disc looks like, since Interstellar invented the rendering technology necessary to get the image and it wouldn't release until like 7 months after this, and then we didn't get a real picture until the Webb telescope. Still very cool a decade later.
This is a myth, scientists had a solid understanding of the appearance of the accretion disk years before interstellar. It was just the most technically advanced rendering up to that time.
This video is wrong. Michael is obviously the brightest thing in the universe. Top tier transitions, perfectly written dialogue, what else can you ask from this legend?
This is Vsauces best video. I always have my mind blown when the image at the end turns into the Yin Yang symbol. It's so well crafted and comes back around for a unforgettable experience. I come back to this every other month to be blown away again. Thanks Michael
I have been falling asleep to vsauce videos every night for a solid 1 and a half month at this point. Knew most of them by heart before, know all of them now. My favorite is Cruel Bombs.
There being no artificial light is probably why it was so easy for ancient civilizations to track and study the stars. Everything was just so clearly visible.
My brother was so intrigued by light bulbs and how it works he went to the garage, with a lot of lightbulbs connected them all, then when I went to fetch him, he lighted them all, it was so bright, all i could see was spots in my eyes, for a couple of seconds or minutes even, i forgot, it was like 10 years ago, also it all just fuck blow up so it became brighter
You have it backwards, you mean predictably unpredictable. In other words you can anticipate that the video is going to have tons of random facts but you're not exactly sure how it will unfold until you've watched it. Unpredictability predictable is kinda nonsensical because you're saying the videos are predictable, while simultaneously saying you can't predict whether they will be predictable or not
Yet you did,making this comment. If not you would have known only by rewatching the video for you to notice,but doing that will mean you would have known so you would have to think about rewatching the video
Muzammil Halim huh? No, he doesn't usually make that big of jumps though, actually this isn't even the first time I've watched this video, just haven't seen it in a couple years.

9:25 "What we see are just their ghosts. Light that left when they were active, that traveled longer than they could live." This line touched my heart. It is a strange inspiration.

This is the kind of life you should live, where your light shine so bright that it stays present even after you're gone. What do you guys think?

+NASTYAN1MAL Actually i think it would have to be more than 30 seconds, because your eyes need to adapt. I'm guessing the lights would need to be turned off for about 40 minutes.
+Linton S. Dawson It would take your eyes about 30 minutes to adapt to the darkness,so about an hour would be better. Btw i'm extremely fun at parties.
Michael : it could stretch from the sun to pluto me : ooh!! Michael : and back! me : woah! that's long!! also Michael : 1.5 Millions times!! and me : TF!!!
"Regardless of who used it first, it was a bright idea. But what's the brightest thing in the entire Universe?" That's the Michael we know and love. Incoherent in every way imaginable.
This is my favorite video by Vsauce, the introduction leading into the topic is brilliant and seem mostly unrelated like most other videos, but the ending looping back to intro giving it its possible true and deeper meaning.
I love to find little details that he puts on the videos as well. For example, at the beginning of the video he appears on the "yang" side of the taijitu, because it is often associated with, among other things, "masculinity" or "maleness". Also there's the pictures at 3:45 and at 8:51 that resembles a taijitu as well.
you might like the Tao Te Jing written ~2500 years ago. Lao Tzu attempted to explain this unfathomable divine polarity. more so relevant today than ever, seems to exist even in science and psychology.
Sanket Matu The guy who hosts it. Vsauce is simply the name of the channel. He says in every video at the beginning, “Hey Vsauce, Michael here!” Stevens is his last name, wow mind-blowing 🤯
I feel like every Vsause video is a fragment of one, non-interrupting line of thoughts. Michael thinks about everything and gets to everything from everything, and what we're seeing are just cut out fragments of his never-ending thought process.
The Yin Yang was a bright idea.
But what's the brightest thing in the universe

Watching his old videos as he blows our minds, gives me literal chills, so many chills
Brightest thing in the universe? The internet's ever-burning flame war.
Ayelis My phone screen when I wake up.

But there shouldn't even be that. There are two genders and Earth is flat.
Fucking deal with it.

Hahahahahauay
My peanut butter airplane is not a fast sandwich. 🍸😏
@@Slowly_Going_Mad Wanna be my sandwich?😏
@@Bangy No thanks. I just like posting smartass comments. And reading them.
"Artificial lights allow us to see what's around us but we lose what's above us" that's so deep my brain is turning into a supernova
Michael your videos even after a decade never ceases to amaze. They are a work of art.
For one day a year, every city in the world should turn off its lights for a few minutes so we can appreciate the poetic beauty of the universe.
.....NOT!!!!
+NASTYAN1MAL Actually i think it would have to be more than 30 seconds, because your eyes need to adapt. I'm guessing the lights would need to be turned off for about 40 minutes.
+NASTYAN1MAL Oh, also, that includes smartphones, tablets, TVs, just about anything that emits light.
***** You might be right. I said it because i remember reading about it somewhere. :)
+Linton S. Dawson It would take your eyes about 30 minutes to adapt to the darkness,so about an hour would be better. Btw i'm extremely fun at parties.
I love you, Vsauce
Michael : it could stretch from the sun to pluto
me : ooh!!
Michael : and back!
me : woah! that's long!!
also Michael : 1.5 Millions times!!
and me : TF!!!
Same reaction
it's about 1607 light years
Michael really has got a tendency of doing that 😂😂😂😂
exact same reaction...so amazing
Damn, this comment section is active for a 5 y/o vid
4:55
I'm sorry. why did that make me crack up out of nowhere? lmao
The brightest thing in the universe is your phone turning on at night and you just sit there squinting for like 20 sec.
Blazar3c454 sounds like a xboxlive account owned by a 13 year old named Duncan
That's very specific
@@totiny3262 Yet strangely accurate
This comment is underrated. I vote for you to get more likes.👍
Actually.
I feel like it be more of a Logan
"Regardless of who used it first, it was a bright idea. But what's the brightest thing in the entire Universe?" That's the Michael we know and love. Incoherent in every way imaginable.
Ethan McDonald lol ikr it escalated so fast
Ethan McDonald he will go from zero to the end of everthing in fact if he has not already i would be surprised
He explains the relation at the end of the video.
See the full fucking video yeezus
How that got so many likes?
even he was like woah big jump when he said it
This may probably be one of the most cinematic Vasauce episodes.
Micheal: what's the brightest object in the entire universe?
Me: you are
Awwww
aw
hE iS nOt An ObjEcT, He hUmAn.
Thats nice of u even tho im not Michael
smooth
This is my favorite video by Vsauce, the introduction leading into the topic is brilliant and seem mostly unrelated like most other videos, but the ending looping back to intro giving it its possible true and deeper meaning.
I love to find little details that he puts on the videos as well. For example, at the beginning of the video he appears on the "yang" side of the taijitu, because it is often associated with, among other things, "masculinity" or "maleness". Also there's the pictures at 3:45 and at 8:51 that resembles a taijitu as well.
Sávio are you sure it isnt because of his white background
@@runi8870 Or is it?
you might like the Tao Te Jing written ~2500 years ago. Lao Tzu attempted to explain this unfathomable divine polarity. more so relevant today than ever, seems to exist even in science and psychology.
The process that unshackles the most light is caused by the thing that best imprison's it.
~ Michael Stevens
No man it's Vsauce who said it! Who is michael Stevens
Sanket Matu The guy who hosts it. Vsauce is simply the name of the channel. He says in every video at the beginning, “Hey Vsauce, Michael here!” Stevens is his last name, wow mind-blowing 🤯

That will take a Long time and by then you will die
What the hell is that comma placement?
I lost it when The circle at the end came. These videos are masterpieces.
Shailesh Rana lmfao, took me a few to realize why. Yin-Yang
My brain actually exploded at the end.
Seeing Vsause get several million views on all his videos makes me much more optimistic about the future of the human race. . .
but then you realize that flat earthers are attacking vsauce because of his how earth moves video.
...
😈
Oh yes
_ XxxRTAxxX _ you're the reason people lose faith in humanity
I feel like every Vsause video is a fragment of one, non-interrupting line of thoughts. Michael thinks about everything and gets to everything from everything, and what we're seeing are just cut out fragments of his never-ending thought process.
The absolute magnitude of my smartphone at 3:00 am reaches -43.9
-5000
Mine reaches -97.6
It’s over -9000
-1337.42069
No that's apparent magnitude
At first I thought the Taijitu was irrelevant to the video... Then came the ending, and I was like: "Beautiful"

I don't know, my peanut butter sandwich is a pretty fast aeroplane
Mine is probably faster. Its made from whole wheat bread.
@@peopleperson360 mine has seeds in the bread
@@Tegrius88 Yeah bread with seeds makes it almost as fast as possible
Aaron Long
But the real question is, what is faster, Crunchy or smooth?

at first I was like, what does ying-yang have to do with bright things, and then I was like, oh.
MAMAs b0y YIN-YANG, get it right.
The memes are real
The brightest things are formed by the darkest things known to us, my God, universe is fucking neat
Me: Michael, can you flip on the light switch? It’s too dark.
Michael: Sure... but what is dark?
Me: No god stop.
Is this under blanko must search black lay space I LOVE YOU ALAINA
Dark is where, there is no light.
But what is stop?
Am I the only guy who says "oh god yes"?
What a shame.
well good thing us and our sun are way too far away to become lunch for the super black hole that lives at the core of our galaxy
0:44 greatest transition ever
What a great video.
