The Amoeba People present THE TECTONIC CHRONICLES PART ONE: "CONTINENTAL DRIFT," the sad but true story of Alfred Wegener and his controversial hypothesis.
Literally everyone has been brought here by their teachers
sadly
True
I wasn't. But I guess that's because I had already passed 6th grade by the time this video came out. I'm not old, but I'm old compared to the population of this comments section.
Yup
Haha yes my science teacher
why does every single science teacher in 6th grade show this to their students?
IDK but mine did!!
my 9th grade teacher showed us this...
Geo Marko 9th grade really?
Waled Jaafari yes its when i had cool teachers and not annoying strict teachers that sucked at their job
Ikr
Nobody:
My Brain at 4 am: YEE HAW ALFRED WEGNER
Yeah
This Is So True, I Got Brought Back Here 2 Weeks Later To Listen To This
omg same
Yes
Same 😂
Fun fact: My science teacher was actually in this band. He showed us this in class.
My teacher said the same thing years ago and we believed him but I don't think he actually was
@@ethanlamore2236 maybe you ywo just got lucky and did get the band members as teachers
Nice
That’s so cool
I was brought here by my science teacher
How many other people had their science teacher play this?
Edit: it's been two years since I was even in this grade and people still responding
CringyKidSings today my 6th grade science teacher played it

@@unfinishedcookietm2195 hello 2 year old reply
@@smugay hello
Everyone is talking about how their teachers sent them here but I’m here on my own free will, says a lot about how good it is...
originally showed this by my teacher in middle school, now voluntarily given to my history of science teacher in high school
To this day this song cringes me every day
im here bc one of the 5th grade teachers from my school are in this band and this song is just good bruh
Yeah one of my science teachers in middle school showed this to my class and I’m back again simply because this song slaps.
same tho
Can we just take a moment to recognize how much of a bop this is?
Facts
Yup
Trueeee, it reminds me of the arctic monkeys
This is literally the exact reason I came here! It sounds like crying lighting to me
I looked this up from school because it wouldn't get out my head
Who came here bc this song just fire
How
Yup, it’s a bop. Haven’t heard this in so long but I’d play this at my funeral.
yeh great song tbf!!!!!
Yeah, play this at my funeral.
Legend status song
who came here because of science😩😂👋🏽
I came here because of science.
me!
its actually catchy though lol
Me😂
i did it got stuck in my head
Did this song with my 7th graders, and was shocked when they actually got into it and pleaded with me to play the song again and again! This was ages go, but even I still find myself singing the song randomly. Great job!
Onward!!!
My 7th grade teacher also played this. We also begged her to play it over and over and half of us muttered it under our breaths for a week. This is a very common thing. Song is super catchy
@@doge8825 why
Our teacher played this for us in 5th grade now we come back here for some nostalgia
me being in 7th grade, i love this song tbh. The vibe reminds me of when i was younger (like 6 y.o)
bro, I would not object to these people becoming an alt band.
Technically we already are . . . on our home planet Crouton.
@@m51records lmao planet crouton... 🤣🤣🤣
I've never found an easier way to study for earth science and jam out at the same time, most songs are cheesy, but this song for the most part isn't, it's very straight to the point.
This comment is cheezy
So wait Alfred was buried in Greenland?
He should put on his grave,
“I told you I was right”
@Benjamin Johnson oh
Welp dang
He was buried in the middle of nowhere
Or better yet: " Told ya so"
To be honest I think it would be unlikely that he himself would put it on his own grave seems as he has been dead for 90 years
Man, anyone still being sent here by their teachers in 2019??
Edit: You guys do realize I made this comment in November 2019 right 😂
Yes!
Infired Trash yep
Same here
Not sent I just came cuz we watched it in class
Yup
It’s been 5 years. Then it just pops back into my head after remembering my 7th grade science teacher. I’m happy it did.
Same
mr stanford on top
My teacher was playing this in class and while taking notes all you heard was YEEHAW ALFRED WEGENER YOU ARE A BRILLIANT MAN
Hey Madi
It’s jay

I saw this in history in 6th grade, and it's the second time I'm seeing it now in 8th grade science

Welcome to the club pal
wow, recently my science teacher showed us this, and i loved it! its the start of school and this really brought up my interest. this song really holds up to today's standards, i really thought this was only like 5 months old maybe? BUT 12 YEARS??? wow. i love this song because of the nice old charm it has to it, especially that last line, "Alfred Weneger's brilliant theory" brought a tear up to my eye
I listened to this song way back in 6th grade, and it left an indelible mark on my brain. Now I'm taking my college Geoscience final tomorrow and using this song to get hyped up
did u pass?
Did you pass?
*HA HA ALFRED WEGENER!*
#YouAreACrazyLittleMan
YEE HAW ALFRED WEGENER
#YouAreABrilliantBrilliantMan
bruh that's my favorite part xD
Sad how that tag doesnt exist
"Alfred Wegener you are a crazy little man" I'm dying help XD
Cringe
Stop it. Get some help
@Esther Podolny i was calling myself from 3 years ago cringe
Please someone tell me why I wanna listen to this song and add it to my Spotify playlist!
School isn't supposed to be this fun!
Also, like if you were brought here by a teacher and is now obsessed with this song!
This songs hit hard ngl my teacher told us if we ever hear this song again we'll think of her
After our science teacher showed us this (duh) it got stuck in my head and all the students love it, he plays it almost everyday and it just adds a little more fun to the room and it’s definitely the best song we’ve listened to ever since it fits the story so perfectly. Thank you!
All those views come from science teachers that show their students this song everytime
No , geography 😅
my science teacher showed this to me and im back listening to this because its literally so good
Fun fact: my science teacher showed this in my class today. Now it’s stuck in my head. And that’s what brings me here
Great Video! My science teacher showed us this!
Yee Haw Alfred Wegner! You are a brilliant man!
Yee Haw Alfred Wegner! You are a brilliant brilliant man!

oh my god...
Amy Majek minedo
Amy Majek same here we was singing it for the whole rest of the year
Amy Majek Same. Just today
Yes, I also was shown this by one of my science teachers, in Year 10 at secondary school...I can never forget this hilariously entertaining lesson of a video.
omg same XD miss was like, "K class here is a video" i died
+CharlottePlaysMC your last name hume so did i lol
POV: you searched this up after your science teacher played this
I-
Yes
Was brought by my 6th grade science teacher. Super weird but was the coolest teacher we had, the type to crack jokes in class. He was the husband of our lab teacher. Miss you Mr. T.
was bought here by my 7 grade teacher lol
I’m doing a Pangea thing in class and my SCIENCE teacher showed us this 3 times. Everyone here from their teacher!
Ryan Mares memtoo
Ooh ya me too!
I sorted this a YEAR ago??! Holy shit. I'm an 8th grader now
Same but I got geography
Me
My friend learned how to play the riff of this on guitar lmao
** xoLittleLucyxo ** could I get the tab for that?
get the tab you freaky bubbles
So, a couple months ago, my science teacher showed this to us in class, (yes I'm one of the many people who were brought here by their science teacher) And my science teacher likes this song so much, that he's not only humming it all the time, but he actually made us preform this song today at school, and we had been rehearsing and practicing for a while.
Damn. The video that opened me to a new interest. Which is now my passion. I still remember that time where my Geography Teacher showed us this wonderful music video in class back in the days. Gosh the memories.
P.S. I love Physical Geography! 🌏
Thank you Amoeba People for this iconic song!
OMG, this song is so creepy, but yet, addicting.. I don't know why.... >.
yes!
Nani how
my teacher showed our class this song and I actually love it. It's not a dumb jingle like usual, and I love the style of the video and the actual song. I'm gonna listen to this for the rest of my life, I love the sound. you should do more songs in this style!
One of the best songs my teacher assigned us throught my whole time in school
Thanks teacher, you made me discover this masterpiece
Marvelous! Now how about a song for Marie Tharp, who worked on mapping the ocean floor and rarely gets credit for her role trying to convince her male geologist coworkers about continental drift being correct?
Tammy Hansen Snell e
Well, no matter what Continental Drift will always be wrong. It is plate tectonics. Not Continental Drift. Plate tectonics and convection currents are what drove the continents away from each other
No one cares about women
Who?
The_Real_Zillo plate tectonics is what causes continental drift since the continents are on the tectonic plates.
I showed this to my 8th grade Earth Science students and now all I hear is this song and "play the Amoeba People song again please'. Thanks for the hit.
Im never going to ever forget this song XD
I´m always coming back once a year to listen to this wonderful song :)
In 3ed grade we watched this and it was such a fun way of learning it! And now I’m in 8th and taking the regents class on it, I still remembered it all from the lyrics of this song!!! Thank you for making this video
Who else is here after their teacher show them this
⬇️
me ie watched it exactly 62 times in a week since last tuesday
Empire Vader Nick me
YES IT WAS SO CATCHY
I watched this for the first time in my freshman year of high school. I'm now in my last year at college. It has been 10 years since I last heard this and it's still great.

Hah it’s been 5 weeks for me :)
Lucky you
Our 10th grade geology teacher showed this to us today 😂😂😂
I wanna thank my 6th grade teacher for showing us this kick ass song
words can not explain my love for this song...
So helpfull in science class! Thank you Amoebe People!
Haha I memorized it, I have
NO life!
Mikayla Lee-Fleming Omg me too! Let's be friends who both have no life!! Lol
a student of mine wants me to play this for our class- catchy song
yesterday was the 12-year anniversary of this masterpiece.
Listened to this at school and it's stuck in my head....

Lol
calipuppy I did it was a little funny and I love this song
calipuppy
My teacher is the one who made this song
We performed it live
Our teacher showed us this video in Science, and it's stuck in my head. Great video 😄
crazy story
science teacher showed us this in class and told us he was in the band. he told us him, his dad, and his cousin made it in his garage. genuinely kind of sounds like my teacher singing. **the entire grade is obsessed with it and will play it wherever they can**
thats crazy bro
why does this honestly slap so hard like I want to add this to a playlist
IKR
My 7th grade teacher has been playing this none-stop in class.
h e l p .
W h y w o u l d y o u w a n t h e l p ?
You lucky
BAHA SAMEEE 😭
I love that I'm not the only one who's science teacher showed them this song in class.
WERE SPLITTING PANGAEA WITH THIS ONE!! 🔥🔥🔥 loll in all seriousness this is an absolute banger im so glad my teacher showed us this
REALL!!
I wanna take a moment to thank Mr. Haas for introducing this gem into my life a decade ago.
pov: its 2021 and your science teacher played this
Bro I watched this in science and now it’s stuck in my head so I’m back 💀
Already done graduated high school and I STILL get this song stuck in my head 😞
Lmfaooo. Its only been 2 yrs for me and I still remember this song
My science teacher showed this to us five years ago and it still gets stuck in my head sometimes...
imagine being in your sixth grade science class and actually enjoying this-
this is caleb from your class

Lol! My awesome science teacher showed this to the class. 😂
Im in love this song! 💗
TheAsianYellowGurl V same lol
I was shown this in 8th grade and now I’m a junior in college. Time flies. Enjoy it all!
We’re learning about this in school and the song sums it up perfectly and it slaps harder than my dad‘s belt
My science teacher played this song about a week ago and everyone in my class is taking about how it's stuck in their heads. I'm the same way.
I've been forced to listen this song twice from both my science teacher and my friend, and now its stuck in my head... --.--
I'm that friend...
7 years ago I was shown this in my 6th grade class. We loved it so much that as a reward for either getting good scores on tests or simply having a class that behaved we were allowed to watch this.
Here I am now almost 20. The memories of this are very pure and beautiful. This is the song that every 6th grader heard. Ahhh those were the days.
Watched this in science class and it's been stuck my head ever since
iceland is green but greenland is ice
Howard Hammond It's because the Vikings didn't want anyone to go to Iceland because it was so green and good, so they named Iceland "Iceland" so other people wouldn't go there and Greenland "Greenland" so the people would go there even though is was icey
wrong
yeah the names got mixed up during naming them
xD lol
Shoutout to the teacher who brought me here she was awesome
Funny enough, this song not only taught me about Alfred Wegener, but also taught me how to learn a song on guitar by ear
Two years later and i came back still
