I also love how you incorporated other elements with the narration like the volcano experiment, sparklers, and other props.

Going to share this on my twitter! :)
Thanks so much. Means a ton coming from you! It definitely took a lot of *time* haha But seriously, thank you - when I started to research the feasibility of this project I definitely binged hard on your videos. They helped me get rough estimates for how long they would take to set up and to fall down, and then I decided to go for it :)
This channel is severely underappreciated. This project clearly took weeks of planning and stressful set-up and perfectly illustrates Its message. I don't understand how this hasn't gotten more attention than it already has. I feel like it should be shown in history or science classes, but I believe it would be too general to be shown to a class. But still, It's an interesting video that all nerds like me should watch. It's amazing.
Too general to show in a college level class maybe, but this is exactly the kind of thing that should be shown to children and help foster a curiosity and wonder about the world (and universe!) around them
@@Whitsoxrule1 Agreed! I just watched the video and I really think I would have loved this and would have become way more interested in science if I'd seen it when I was still in school, maybe when I was 14-15. I found that the school classes I took were pretty out of context, if that makes sense. Like, they tell you how to answer exam questions but not the bigger picture.
Carson K This was all done with one take and there’d be no way that he’d be able to retake it. I also just want to add that he was probably under huge pressure because retaking the video would be very difficult since you would have to set up all the dominoes again and he didn’t seem to have any notes prepared which he could read the information from. The mistakes were also really minor so yea

You MADE 13,799 dominoes? WHO ARE YOU? And why did I just find your channel that you've been doing for years? You have way too much patience man...wow.

For another video I recently ran a marathon where every cm was one year... After 42km, I only made it as far as the last 4 dominoes.... And it certainly was a Struggle.
