"Even here... Something very STUPID builds it's house." 🤣
Has built its house.
... its house. (Only stupid use the contraction of "it is" instead of the possessive pronoun!)
That Attenborough impression was spot on.
It's only finally just sunk in, that QI is like the fun, likeable version of the whole "well, actually..." attitude.
There's a gameshow called "Um, actually" that tries to accomplish a similar thing.
yeah - it's a way those cnuts finally found a way to be socially acceptable. (sry - " _WE_ cnuts..")
@@whitenoise509 oh no um actually fully goes into that concept
I just read that "Well, Actually" in Stephen fry 's voice 🤣
If you want more of this kind of stuff, try out "No Such Thing as a Fish", a podcast by the QI writers.
Holy crap the man can *actually* do an Australian accent, and that's the first time I've ever heard a good one from someone not born here.
Kate Winslet in The Dressmaker does the only other good Australian accent I have ever heard, all the other ones sound like some mutant AU/NZ/RSA hybrid.
Too right. He actually sounds a lot like John Wood ( tv shows like Blue Healers, Rafferty Rules etc)
Hugh can do one too
Shortly after 6:22 for reference
In one episode he mentions that he lived here for a while (and lived with Colin lane if I remember correctly)
How Alan hasn't rage-quit the show yet is beyond me. He needs some sort of award - a life-sized, solid gold blue whale trophy comes to mind.
Alright, Alan, we all know it's you, hiding behind a fake name
He is playing a role not sure why you wouldn't know that
Rage-quit? He has a regular job - why would he quit?
What is it with young people and stupid language I really don't understand that it's really getting annoying ok you want to change everything so it suits your generation but you're just making up stupid now rage quit what internet site did you get that from
In the first “Making of…” show (search for “ QI s09 e00 Making QI” on here), you can hear Alan explain how his feelings about it changed over the first five seasons.
Surely I can’t be the only one who has heard of a sunfish and I don’t even study fish.
I've heard of sunfish. Because they talked about them on QI....
Learned of them when I was a kid
You are not alone, Unc. Sunfish helped me to recognize/identify my ichthyophobia when, at age 10, I spotted a photo of one in my World Book encyclopedia. The entry on fish had several pages of illustrations and photos which disturbed and fascinated me until I finally understood why I hated going to the fishmonger's shop with my grandmother. 😀|🐟|--😨.
I had heard of them when I was a kid, but then they added them to the Animal Crossing games and all of my friends knew about them after that.
the famous british education skips over sunfish i guess
what a perfect Aussie accent Mr Fry. understated. that's the trick.
I lived in the town where that newspaper is based and remember the story.
@@BradGryphonn We are still eating pork.!
I think that should not have got funding…. Best David Mitchellism
its a helluva mood, too
@@marycanary86 ugh that word needs to go… mood is just so, plain… Expecting everyone else to fill in your blank…
@@Chimera_Photography What does it mean in this context? In America we only use it for its actual meaning.
@@Chimera_Photography as insufferable as I find people who complain about the words and phrases that others use, I can't help but agree with you on this one. Right up there with "same".
Same.
As a german I actually never heard someone call a sunfish "schwimmender Kopf". We call them Mondfisch, which funnily enough means moonfish.
still more dignified than danish. we literally call them "lump fish" (klumpfisk)
@@marycanary86 in england we call it a stumpfishclout
@Jay Hackett That could be a good explanation. I genuinely tried to find something about it, but the only thing I got was, that it got it's name because it shimmers like moon.
In Dutch it's also called moonfish (maanvis). I always assumed the name came from the fact it sort of looks like a crescent moon.
@@michaellejeune7715 think you might find we call them Karbonkel here, actually :P
Jo looks so cute w/her hair like that...she's very funny and clever too.
Ocean Sunfish? Never heard of?
*laughs in animal crossing*
Can We please have Stephen Fry as a guest?
Sandi: Oh how the tables have turned.
I think that’s gonna be the last episode. Alan is host Sandy and Stephen are guests.
I want Stephen & Sandi to appear on opposing teams in an episode of WILTY
@@JackDManheim both giving QI stories
@@Deadralord777 right?
And if both stories involved Alan, we’ll that’d be the cherry on top
Reminds me of a really old joke. Did you hear about the Mathematician that had constipation, well, he worked it out with a pencil.
🤢
As opposed to the dry cleaner who worked it out with a coat hanger?
when i was a prek teacher i would tell the kids if they went all the way over the bar on the swings, they would go back in time and if they met themselves the universe would explode
What's "prek"?
@@decodolly1535 preschool, 3-5 year olds
@@raygun38 Thank you. Never heard that before.
And now we know why young people are so ignorant. It's their teachers.
@@waynemarvin5661 prek kids aren't stupid, maybe you would have believed me, but the kids I taught were good critical thinkers.
1:47 No, you won't get the bends. It's not pressurized. It's normal atmospheric pressure. You would hardly notice the 500m extra layer of air on top of you just like you would hardly notice the 500m less if you went to the top of the Empire State Building.
Quite correct, it's just the same as being 500m underground.
Yep the man is right, no difference unless it's presurised.
Yes. The structure is massive and strong enough that it doesn't need to be pressurized. Kind of like a cofferdam.
4:17 - The "River" Hamza - is not a river. The water movement is through porous rock at a depth of 4,000 meters. It was originally estimated that the Hamza was moving thousands of cubic meters of water every second... however, that's not what scientist found when measuring it. The "flow" is moving at a pace of just a few centimeters PER YEAR - even slower than a glacier - so the notion that water is being transported in some way is entirely incorrect. It's also not a river in the traditional sense because the water is saline, not fresh. Due to these latest discoveries, the description of the Hamza as a river has now been highly disputed by several geologist, including Jorge Figueiredo, who views referring to the Hamza as a river to be highly inaccurate.
Thanks for that. I learned something quite interesting.
You can sometimes see sunfish around Cornwall in the summer months.
Yep! Seen one. They're brought in by the gulf stream.
What! Where in Cornwall?
@@rexfoxoloughlin6033 The Isles of Scilly is a good place to see them from my experience
@@rexfoxoloughlin6033 I've seen them from towan headland in Newquay.. only rarely when theres a heatwave in mid summer though it seems. First time I'd ever heard of a sunfish was when baffled trying to work out what they were and asking some fishermen. Quite interesting things!
These guys are funny as hell
Now that I think about it... the biggest thing you've never heard of is very much a question that's impossible to answer. As the moment you answer, your answer makes itself wrong.
What about a true guess
@@seanclements6206 Never heard of not... never knew about... if you say the words you've already heard of it once... so... the answer invalidates itself even if your correct answer is just a serious of random sounds to you...
This literally said in the video....
@@squeakybunny2776 ... Yeah... I was just pointing out the wording issue. Read the above comment to know my further description on the topic as you are not the first to debate the topic but you are the first to seem to simply miss the topic.
@@jocomfiresin6982 I'm not debating the topic.
I'm debating your notion:"now that I think about it".
What do you mean now that you think about it. As if it was an afterthought after the video ended that just came to you. Your "debate" was already raised and closed in the video itself....
How drunk was Stephen during that pencil segment?
This could have been the episode wherein he'd come straight from the airport after a delayed flight suffering from very bad jetlag. Evidently he simply had to record the episode nonetheless!
I’ve always assumed Stephen was always drunk. I don’t remember seeing him ever looking sober.
Yes, a small sherry!
Yeah, I was gonna say. He seems pretty sloppy in that clip.
For the swinging it must be quite beneficial to be heavy, provided you have the strength to support.
They never let us play that sport on the playground when I was a kid. I imagined myself doing it though!
Love this show! Only wish that the alarm for guessing wrong was less... Alarming 😖
Imagine if a small jack in the box in front of each contestant just popped up and sprayed you in the face with water 😆
0.5 seconds in and I'm already dying from laughter
"Nøgleperson." LOL.
7:58 Actually the Sun fish does live in "our" seas. Only last week a dead one washed ashore on the Dutch coast.
Did you know that I really love this kind of stuff!
Now, why would you suppose anyone would know that?
@@waynemarvin5661 I'm still working on the whole telekinesis thing. When I get it I'll be within your very mind and you'll know!
didnt include the whole question of the start of the video, only "troll"
In my school days we had swings like that. We would have competitions to se who would last the longest and do the most rotationsm
Saw a sunfish in Ilfracombe harbour back in the 80’s, parents had a picture of it.
I saw one in the ‘90’s in the Gulf of Maine when I was a kid. That was the only time. 😎
Recently on the Radio 4 programme Nature Table they were talking about sunfish and said it's not unusual to find them in the sea off Cornwall.
Thanks for cutting the first question. Great editing.
Demand a refund
@@jamespfitz - That's hardly the point. Maybe you didn't spot the poor editing, but it was amateurish to say the least.
@@jamespfitzI didn't realise that was an option. Can I do that? If so, what process must I go through, or whom must I contact? This is great news. There are so many channels that are going to be hearing from me. Thanks mate!👍
I too am here for my refund.
I’ve had my refund.
Not only is the Ocean Sunfish fairly well known, but you also get them around the Cornish and southern Irish coastlines too……… But, most people wouldn’t know, that they are bullet proof, and inedible……………
Why do you know That the poor thing is bullet proof? 😳😳
I saw one while diving off north-west Scotland. They come across the Atlantic on the Gulf Stream...
Me & my pals used to swing over the top on swings in our early teens.
Why did you cut off the first question??
I think Steven, Alan, Aisling, Sandi and Susan is my favourite lineup ever.
ahhh that is so nice of you to say - puke
So underwater was actually right!
The German call it "the swimming head" but the guys from Revere call it "a baaby whaaaaale!"
Sunfish surely are found in British waters - they're regularly recorded in Irish waters every summer. Bound to be a few around Cornwall or western Scotland. I'd love to see one, my mate has seen them on a couple of occasions
"squeeze it in at the bottom", how did no-one make a joke at that comment?!!?!?
we are not calling it the "schwimmender kopf". We are calling it "Mondfisch".
What do you mean "impossible"? Allright, this might be a Baltic region thing but in Latvia as kids we've done those 360 swing loops both - standing and sitting!
The reason it's usually impossible is that people are trying it using swings suspended by chains rather than swings suspended on rigid poles. A typical chain swing has to remain under tension all the time, while the poles depicted here don't collapse under compression like a chain does. With a chain swing you'd have to go from a slow swing back and forth into a really fast swing that has centrifugal force stronger than gravity all the way around, in *one repetition*. If it takes more than one swing to work your way up to that speed, your chain collapses on the intermediate swings prior to that speed and you fall in. When you have stiff poles, on the other hand, then you don't collapse the swing on those intermediate repetitions so you have time to work your way up to the speed where you go all the way around.
@@dunbar9finger ahh, yes, the soviet style swings definitely had poles not chains!
@@wilkatis Do you guys in Latvia also do 360 with the large wooden swings for multiple people? In Estonia, you can see people doing such things, usually around mid-summer eve.
@@tarksurmani6335 While I haven't done it myself, I have seen people doing it! Most of the wooden-pole swings I've seen do have height limiters however, limiting how high you can actually swing.
As far as traditions go swinging is a big thing during the Easter, but it's definitely a summer time thing aswell.
Actually, on a not-so-fun note, a guy I knew died as a wooden swing collapsed on him while doing those loops. So maybe it's not the best idea to do so
Aishling is a beauty and so hilarious
Classmate pencil was my favorite;)
You do a very good Aussie accent mr fry.
At one point in Australia some children from war torn Kosovo came over and Channel Ten gave them a march pack of pens and other such stuff from popular programs at the time - it backfired a bit when one of the pens had Just Shoot Me written on it!
They should make a special where they have to guess the red herrings
That’s Alans job every week 😂
"I... HATE this show" - Phil Jupitus
Not Phill, it's Danny Baker.
"Not there ... miraaaage"
I’ve known about the sunfish for a long time, late 60’s I think
Me too. They have a stuffed one in the Museum of Natural History in Gothenburg. Appeared in Swedish waters, probably swept here by the Gulf Stream (klumpfisk).
sunfish are around the uk coast too....
The most dense the concentration of water reaches per cubic meter of air is 30 grams at saturation. The "river" of water vapor therefore does not carry as much water as any of the rivers Alan mentioned as a cubic meter of water contains 10,000 grams. As usual, the information QI uses in order to trip up the contestants is wrong.
No, David, the troll does not have to be pressurized anymore than a submarine has to be pressurized.
God damn how I miss Stephen Fry. He's like a nuclear bomb of charisma.
Miss him from what? He still does things.
@@GuitarGuy057 Qi
@@DiosCerdo Reasonable.
It's amazing how little we know about the amazon
Not true I have seen molas off the British coast, they follow currents, and if the water is cold, they lay on the surface to warm up. There are many around Bali. Saying they like warm water, when they dive to huge depths where the water is cold to hunt.
Depending on how much you know, the Shinano class CV of the IJN. Sunk c. 1945 by a USN submarine and the largest ship sunk to this day by a submarine *and* the largest carrier in the World including the Essex class until the advent of the USN's Midway class CVs c. 1948.
OMG Atmospheric Rivers!! That's what has been kicking Californias ass recently with 9 storms in a row! ... I was actually quite pissed off that I didn't already know about those, because I know a crap load of useless interesting trivia. Little did I actually know that it had been covered on QI already probably like 10 years ago. Seems 'tis I who is getting the ass kicking today.
Can someone explain what Jo meant about the Rio Hamza being hook shaped?
I'm sorry, but did Sandy just say that gas rig goes THREE HUNDRED METERS UNDERWATER! That's absurd!
Do they literally "drop" out or only figuratively drop out? Asking for a friend.
The hamza river is bigger but moves less water, per second (only about 1% of the Amazon)
What was the opening question?
Biggest troll I think
@@james-xf1ox yup, thats correct. funny enough I had just watched that episode a little while ago.
I watched a rather short hairy guy with very powerful legs do the overthetop swing at Maryland Rennaissane Festival. it' really quite breathtaking to watch.
Have you not seen many short hairy men then? 🤔
🤣
Ah,me thinks your Boris and the #45 use the same hair salon...🇺🇸✌️
Is it just me, or does Aisling look even hotter in glasses?
10:44 one of the biggest mistakes ever done with a pencil was a man pushing one into his urethra, becoming stuck…
The issue with the sun fish is that I had heard of it before this episode came out so it not the largest thing I’d hadn’t heard of. Mola mola are so cool.
His Aussie accent is incredible.
No way he isnt stoned out every episode 🥴🥦🥦🍑🍦5:23-5:37 he is both cheeched and chonged
Everyone must be aware of the Sunfish????
I think these researchers must think we are all BBC watchers!
A sunfish once washed up on the shore near my school. I was eating avocado during this episode. 🤢
To uncle creepy, I’ve never heard of a sunfish. They look diabolical
5:00 4km beneath the amazon itself... I think that is called the groundwater of the Amazon river watershed.
What was the question???
9:30 did you hear about the constipated mathematician? he worked it out with a pencil
I'm sure those sky rivers don't actually carry much water, since vapor is really diffuse
Wait for it....... Red Whale .
Gone, dead, RIP me.
🤣
...I am also laughing like an idiot at 9:00 further.. But I feel happy, so I win .
Bless the 90s.
Nigel Mansell what do you mean The Stig?
No, we call it Mondfisch...
Greetings.
Why does Fry keep saying: "as it were.''? What does that mean?
Atmospheric rivers hitting California now, January2023, causing terrible flooding, damage, and deaths.
The incompetent editing by the uploader cut out the opening question so it starts with a contextless answer.
U need a hug?
Agreed dunbar
Biggest troll
I thought it would be, who was the model for this troll?

What kind of edits is this
It would help if we knew the question at the beginning, not just random answers!!!!!!!!!!
WORLD'S BIGGEST SNOWFLAKE?!
Does Stephen Fry DO ANSWER REASEACH...or is he only a PRESENTER?
Alan Davies gatecrashed Marcus Brigstock's brilliant David Attenborough impression. Very annoying.
Not worth the 42 min commercial
I too am imagining the thighs
No, Sandi. The state of Arkansas does not write their laws in pencil.
They use Crayons.
Even their crayons are racist.
...imagining the thighs now.
Nothing like some incompetent editing from the get-go to make me not bother with the rest of the video. How hard is it to include the initial question?
you can kinda work it out with inference, that it was what's the world's biggest troll
he's just trolling you
Lidt trist, at Sandi ikke har hørt om de, her i landet så berømte, danske klumpfisk…
tha hamza river thing is prety much wrong on all counts.. bad QI!
bad QA more like
Let's go brandon
Well but I've heard of a sunfish, so it's not something I've never heard of.
