Green arsenic paints did exist, as did makeup. Childbirth wasn't the only thing keeping women's life expectancy down back then. There was also the Radium Girls, painting alarm clocks with radium paint. They often licked the brushes while painting to keep the bristles wet, because the bits they were working on were so small. They also painted their nails with it because they liked how it glowed in the dark. A lot of them ended up with cancer in their mouths, because, you know... radiation.
The radium thing affected everyone because it was considered a miracle cure for everything, there was radium toothpaste, soap, condoms, paint, anything! Because it glows in the dark people thought it must have regenerative properties
That incident was tragic. The company knew how dangerous the material was because when they brought it in with protective equipment. I feel crying thinking about it. The government sealed the hell out of their coffins as their bodies were highly radioactive. I highly recommend people watch a video on this.
Lead based paint was absolutely a thing, and causes the problems you can imagine. Very common in the 60s, I believe. In fact, if a wall painted with lead based paint gets demolished nowadays, they have to use protective masks specifically so they don't breath it in. I knew someone once who bought houses at auctions to fix up and sell and they said they have to get people to check for lead pipes, paint and asbestos all the time.
Interesting! I know any 9 1/2 inch tile that gets found when renovating or dealing with old houses gest immediately torn out due to that specific tile size being linked with asbestos. It's rather interesting that these things crop up years later and garner their own reputation. Lead is definitely one of those things you arch an eyebrow at if you come across it.
I'm disappointed you didn't comment on Shakespeare stealing a whole Theater being a very Sea Bees move. Strategically transferring equipment to alternate locations.
18:41 Fun fact, triangles do sort of have a 4th side. The 3 sides of a triangle can be described as lines relative to 3 circles: the in-circle (the largest circle that fits inside the triangle), the circumcircle (the circle that touches all 3 corners), and the 9-point circle (the circle that touches: the midpoint of each of the lines, the foot of each of the altitudes, and the midpoint between the 3 corners and the orthocentre of the triangle). Each line has its endpoints on the circumcircle, its midpoint on the 9-point circle, and is tangential to the in-circle. However, there are not 3 lines which fit this description, but rather 4. To see it visually, I recommend looking at a short posted by vsauce titled "Do Triangles Have Four Sides? #shorts"
I use paint brushes fairly often, synthetic brushes do exist but they're absolutely terrible to use, they fray and split after using them a couple of times, but they're incredibly cheap. I have sable brushes and if you compare the two an average person will be able to notice the difference
Yes! C-14 dating can be used for anything up to roughly 50,000 years old, after that the method is more or less useless. But other isotopes have far longer half-lives and thus can go back a lot further. On top of that there are of course overlaps between different measurements so we can compare and calibrate radio-dating methods with each other.
It also doesn't work with fossils for the simple reason that fossils aren't the decaying body anymore, but an imprint of a body that was once there. Sometimes, we find actual remains inside, but usually it's just stone that permineralized the real deal a long time ago. Can't carbon date something made of rock, so we need to use different things.
Worth mentioning, from what I understand we do actually carbon date fossils, but after a bit it's hard to nail down specifics and there's other variables that can effect things. So paleontologists actually use multiple elements when they date things to double-check and make sure of the actual age. And because we've gotten consistent results with that for specific rock layers, they can look back at the dating and the specific layer to be like "Okay, this thing was so and so many layers down and has these results, so it's definitely from around 130 million years ago." Like you're never going to get an EXACT year because things get less reliable the further back you go, but you can narrow it down to a narrow enough margin that it doesn't really matter if you're a bit off.
I use synthetic brushes for my painting hobby. Synthetic brushes (in my opinion) are better for me to use in the long run, because when the brushes inevitably stop working as well as before, I can repurpose them for different types of effects.

Ive made a drinking game out of kips channel. Any time he laughs at something that you didnt laugh at, take a shot. Any time he goes on an unrelated tangent, take a shot. If that tangent lasts more than 60 seconds, take a second shot.
I remeber there being an anime that followed con artists. I think a few of them were legit, and one of them involved a fake painting that sold for 100 million dollars, and the guy lost everything else he owned just to get the painting, not knowing its fake.
Shakespeare and all his mates literally nicking a whole ass theatre is a level of mad lad energy that can’t be topped.
I heard told by my old drama teacher that it was done either in one night or a night and a day.

Yeah lead paint went away pretty recently. Its not unheard of to find out houses that nobody is living in have lead paint
Kids ate it

24:25 A good way to get around that is too make the cheats for your own game and then put the cheaters in there own lobbies.
31:32 from what i remember fro. Science we do the same thing with fossils we just use things with a far longer halflife

Carbon-14 dating i believe is only useable up to 50,000 years and a different isotopes is used for things past that

Nice try, fed

If you want to talk about paints being discontinued because of toxicity, look up the radium girls.
