- Squirrels were stealing my bird seed so I solved the problem with mechanical engineering :)
Here is an explanation of the illusion dish thing!- demos.smu.ca/index.php/demos/...
Here is a link to the illusion dish (not sponsored :) www.amazon.com/dp/B0718XCG7F/...
I started a company called CrunchLabs where we build a toy together and then I teach you all the juicy physics for how it works. So if you want to learn to think like an engineer and have really fun time doing it, check out the current promotion where you get 2 FREE boxes at crunchlabs.com
You should also go subscribe to the CrunchLabs UA-cam channel cause we’ve got some bangers in the pipeline- / crunchlabs

Phantastic Gus is my spirit animal.
I love your channel so much!
yay
i love you sooo much, and i want to work at nasa when i grow up, like you did! you rock!
Wait.. How did you comment this 1 hour ago when the video came out 1 minute ago?!!??
good job mark
Neighbor: The squirrels are really becoming a problem.
Mark: Yeah, I've been training them with a special obstacle course.
Hahahaaa
LMAO i also loved how he said paint me like one of your french squirrels
Neighbor: The WHAT
Another UA-camr whose area is flooded with squirrels solves that problem by using air rifles on the critters, incredibly effective.
But I have a feeling that won't come across very well on this channel! xD xD
Best comment
Meanwhile ... 17 squirrels learned to raid Mark's fridge between 6am and 10am while he was being distracted by 4 of their mates.
It's like a heist movie, showing only the four distracting squirrels until the end where there is a big squirrel reveal on how the real heist was actually the fridge and a montage of how they pulled it off
over the hedge anyone?

This isn’t ratatouille
Omg that is so funny
This was both educational and entertaining. Watching the brilliance of these squirrels was more than what I expected. Thank you for being so curious yourself!
Ofc they are smarter than me.
Your skills as a story teller, educator, engineer and naturalist are brought together so beautifully. Thank you for this video

@Can We get to 2,000 subscribers without videos ? When the op made the comment originally it didn’t include phantastic Gus, so they edited it, but only after someone replied
Mark…. I am blown away. This might be the best online video I have ever seen. On the negative side, its not Google, FB, Tw etc rolling dopamine addiction - I realized around the 4-6 minute part you TOTALLY HAD ME and there was nothing that would prevent me from seeing it in its totality. I nominate this for the UA-cam Emmys or Oscars.
Probably the best video I've ever seen. Agree ❤ I too am blown away.
Do they actually do youtube awards? If so, I nominate this video. hands down best video I've seen in a looonnng time
This has been the most enjoyable 20 min's I've ever spent on UA-cam, ever. Hats off to the fun! And I'm a squirrel lover too! Thank you so much for your video!!!
I'm changed forever toward squirrels.
That shot of gus chillin on the picnic table was probably the best thing ive seen in my life
Aka my brother at 5:00 am
The shot of the squirrel’s butt is hilarious and I thought he was doing it on purpose.
yes
Same haha I was actually laughing out loud at every joke mark made of gus
Mood
Imagine someone breaks into the house from the back and sees squirrels doing parkour
Robber: Ooooookayyy then imma just leave now
Gus: Broooooooo, can you bring me some walnutsssss
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I would be like “oh... OH THEY TRAINING SPY SQUIRRELS!”
Cause we all break into houses to go outside...
DarthRaichu I think they meant they tried to break in from the back or something
You’re basically training your squirrels to problem solve. Soon they will take over the world.
Mini micro squirrel computer.
Yes they evolve and learn fast.
We can hope...probably too late for this election though 😩
It’s like that one episode of Rick and Morty.
this video is absolutely fantastic. the perfect combination of science, animal, action, humour and fun! thank you for putting in the time and effort to produce this!
I am telling u even tho it was 3 years ago I still love it I watched it when it came out
I just got emotionally attached to 4 squirrels in 20 minutes.
Haha...me too!!! And they're co cute, right
hahaha TRUE THAT !!
Phat Gus
Is love
Nice
Nice
This is what Quarantine Boredom looks like when you're a NASA Engineer.
🤢
Well said.
Yeah you should see Micheal Reeves...
@@coledatbom6749 the squirrel would have gotten just taszed do death :)
👏👏👏
cant believe i came accross this video, 3 years later. That is realy something,!!! love the ending of, when you mentioned the deeper effect of this adventure : connecting with nature. Amazing hats off.
ñ🤓
Squirrels are my favourite. The are so nimble and beautiful i use to watch them all the time in front of my house on the boundary walls of the park. This video is always a delight to watch as i am often away from my home due to work this refreshes the lazy mornings i have when i am at home.
Moral of the video:
Squirrels are smarter than the average package thief.
yes
I don't think those things qualify as smart.
Edit: (I meant Package thieves)
Spence C. They’re definitely clever
there big brain
@@Plazmasoldier You're right... theyre genius.
"I'm going to build a squirrel-proof feeder"
Builds a 50-part navy seal training course
Wow
I just realized that
Cougar Pack YT same
Navy Squirrel
😂😂😂that's the best
This is one of my favourite videos on UA-cam. Since my first time watching this video, I have moved to another country and started bird watching & bird feeding in the backyard. Since then the battle has been real - at least 2 bird feeders were destroyed, and much suet and seeds went to these indomitable, genius creatures. I now fully believe that squirrels can take over the world if they really wanted to.
Благодарность автору от мамы болеющих детей, которым необходимо спокойно сидеть во время ингаляций небулайзером. Ваши видео - просто находка! Даже я с удовольствием их смотрю, хотя планировала заниматься бытом С увпжением, Мария
lets be honest, when we clicked on this video we never thought it would be this good.
i was worried he would hurt the squirrrels, nice video
Honestly 😂😂😂
Its Mark Rober. Of course it would be
Those squirrels exceeded my expectations along with the video.
Ive been subbed for a long time ik what im getting into
This is my 2nd time watching already
like for a petition so that he has a day every year where he brings back the course to check up on the squirrels
Yes
@@masonelliott7674 that's kinda mean but ok.
Week is better than a day
Already in the works. The boys are gonna have to bring their A-Game next year now that I know what they're capable of.
@@MarkRober *Boys and Girls, don't forget phantastic gus
No words. Beyond excellent. Thank you. Filled with hope that at least one person in America still has a functioning brain.
Mark Rober, 20 :20 min. of pure fun with these marvelous squirrels, with no doubt, we learn something new every day, thank you so much. greetings from Lima, Perú.
This is the closest we'll get to the Olympics this year
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂🤣🤣😭😭
This deserves number one comment 😂
😂😂 true
lmaoooo
normal people: il just buy more bird seeds
Mark Rober: let me build a squirrel version of wipeout
😂😂😂
yeah lol
I just shoot them
@@michiworkz4560 Ahh yes the American way
also eat your cereal
I like how in these videos, the squirrels are showing off the cuteness by the same time, getting tiery exercise out
Очень смешно. Спасибо. А белки - чудо!!! ❤❤❤😂😂😂
Came to watch Squirrels doing an obstacle course
Left learning that Squirrels do math better than me
Lol
Hi great great great grandpa
@@jax6648 hi Jotaro
@kakyoin noriaki huh
Haha lol
I would literally watch a whole season of Squirrel Wipeout.
Your on to something here
Woah woah wash he’s gotta point there
I'd watch that on discovery channel fo sho
Oooohhh... Interesting
What we need :
1.Squirrels
2.Miniature Ninja Warrior sets
3.Some cameras
4.Walnuts......lot of them
I've watched this everytime UA-cam put it in my pull-pile. You're Genius! THANK YOU
This obstacle course was single-handedly responsible for the evolution of flying squirrels.
This, this is the video that UA-cam was invented for.
Yes, thank you!
😄😄😄😄😄
Most definitely!
Fax
Yes!
Moral of the story:
Squirrels are smarter than porch pirates
Like that's a hard thing to be.
And wayyyy more atheletic
Lol
Your very true about that
Squirrels are smarter than me 😂
This was so wholesome like everything you do! So inspired by you!
This is a special video you’ve done here. I was in awe watching it and enjoying the narration like a happy story about life
I hope he realizes that he is only training the squirrels to become stronger.
I got u to 420👉👉
They’re going to be unstoppable

He’s?
How many late night dip's did Prego take in the neighbor's pool. (accidental of course) little to slow to get off the trigger😲🤬🤯N flying 🐿️'S but I didn't know that they could swim.😜
The effort, time and commentary Broooh!!! Always appreciate your videos. Funny and informative 📌
Absolutely loved this video! So cute and fascinating! Thank you!
Now i feel like i know these squirrels personally,
Yeah I'm gonna miss em
Now I'm thinking in getting a squirrel
these squirrels are smarter than me
M 2
I want a pet squirrel after this video and I want Mark to build a squirrel playground for them
The squirrels sitting on the picnic bench is so cute lol
Phat Gus was hilarious 😂
Phat Gus the superstar
Everyone: Keemstar vs Ethan Klein
Mark Robert: calm down and watch squirrels get yeeted
until you see phantastic gus laying on the table doing the starfish
Right?!
The fact this video is 20 minutes and 20 seconds long and was released in 2020 is just perfect.
Amazing work😂👏 I love squirrel too❤
I've moved from Russia to USA, and I'm so happy that I can touch nature. I'm give to squirrel nuts, some foods, they are so cute 😊
A squirrel sitting at a tiny picnic table is the cutest thing I've seen.
Not when they push your friend's birthday cupcakes off the picnic table and on the dirt floor. Lol but they are cute not doing anything.
@@dduelion who hurt you
Was it the squirrel
DC has dem super rare hairless tail squirrels
Tatiana Saravia I mean ur not wrong but jeez who did hurt u 😂
Phillip2423A until fantastic guss comes along
Imagine having squirrels in your backyard waiting on a picnic table for some walnuts
I would just sit with them and bring nuts
We shall now open a squirrel restaurant
We don't have squirrels in my place ¯\_༼ᴼل͜ᴼ༽_/¯
I'm the 666th like, you're welcome.
*Me, who’s allergic to walnuts:*
👁 🐽 👁
👄
Phantastic work. Gives me some ideas for my backyard squirrels also! 🐿️
The fact my science teacher showed this video to us last last week is crazy i cant-✋️
But I LOVE THE VIDEO!! :O
"Doctors trying to find a way to cure the virus"
Mark Rober:"trying to find a way to outsmart a squirrel..."
This is the best comment
Totaly the best comment I have ever seen 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Engineer things
And in both cases, it is impossible
I wish the cure will never found
I demand a controlled study where you get squirrels from other communities and try to replicate these results. I suspect that the squirrels in Mark's backyard are more intelligent than average squirrels as they are probably master engineers from watching all of his science projects.
Perhaps we should send these squirrels to Japan...
I agree
they're getting too smart...
(words from mark rober himself)
*Sneak 100*
13:13 Mark Rober: Now here comes Phat Gus, and I mean... how Phat Gus is this? He sees the camera and he's like: "Paint me like one of your French squirrels. Yeah? No? No takers? Alright..."
Lol!!!! 😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂
This was amazing I honestly thought this would be partially boring but this is amazing and so sweet!
I cant believe it worked so well, this was probably one of the most entertaining things I've ever watched.
Yup
you need to get a life then
Danes, if this didn't entertain you immensely you are a sad sad individual.
@@x1v160 or he is a physicist
@@danesstang9307 who hurt you...? 😢
I like how he talks about the squirrels like they’re speedrunners.
“A solid run”
“A time under 40 seconds”
“A near perfect run by Frank”
Mark robers obstacle course any%
(No major glitches) Spliced
funny
@@Tettymanurung123 it is thank you
they cheat they do TAS speedrun
This was a fantastic video. After loosing 3 baby flying squirrels, I needed this.
This was genius! Well constructed. And amazing to see what amazing skills squirrels has!
What I expected: Some boring carpentry
What I got: A comprehensive slow motion analysis of a squirrel being launched
This is better then any carpentery video anyone could imagine
I didn’t think I needed squirrels sitting on a picnic table in my life, but I really did.
something you didn't know you needed but now know you needed
Same lolol
Lmao it’s amazing
He looked so comfortable
I think you don't
Wonderful to find on a Saturday morning while studying for an exam :) Thank you!
After three years, a random comment from a friend reminded me of this video and how fun and heartwarming it was. So here I am again and it did not disappoint after all that time.
Imagine Mark's son in the future asking him for ideas for the science fair
Marks son or daughter will win EVERY science fair.... EVER
Underrated comment😂
@@melissapeterson1298 Already has a son
Ya heard of a Nuclear Reactors?
He already has a whole video on science fair ideas
Squirrel: can i please eat something?
Mark: well yes but actually no
lol
Lmao
Frazier Lo has to ppll
Yessss
You get hearted
Thank you Mark for your helpful video!! My students and I learn a lot from your videos not just the Science but they can also practice listening to a native English speaker. Once again thank you from VietNam.
Its a tradition to watch this every once in a while
Squirrel kids: *eat free nuts from humans
Phantastic gus: "in my days if you wanted to eat, you had to go through a whole parkur course!
This comment is waaaay underrated

Hi Mark Rober
@@MarkRober lol
“what did you learn during quarantine” I learned the angular momentum of a squirrel”
What is the angular momentum of an unladen squirrel?
Haravata Johann dont you know
Nope you only learned that angular momentum is responsible for them righting themselves. I gave done work highly involved in momentum especially angular momentum for about 27 years.
@@quijybojanklebits8750 neat
“what did you learn during quarantine” - I learned that i need to move to a house so i can build my own course for squirrels. :P
Excellent l’idée du piège a touristes. Trop chou les photos😊
A Mark Rober vs Nature classic. Well worth the revisit on this New Year's Eve. 🎉
I just appreciate the fact that he uploads once a month and he always manages to make the content top notch in quality.
You are everywhere, try get a break once in a while...is Ytube and anime all you know?
I think you are a building with 64 minotors
Michael C Grigori oof
Well we meet again
Hey
This is the most entertaining video about squirrels in existence
Have you heard about Saving the squirrles initiative?
Someone doesn't watch idubbbz
Innit
Yup!
Just casually scalping Barbie like we wouldn't notice.
Such a great film- Love your narration, too. Very funny. And congrats on building such a great course.
What a great video. We don't have squirrels in Australia, so they're lovely to see.
Funny, how he can entertain both squirrels and humans at the same time.

Impressive, i would say
Imagine waking up one morning and seeing four squirrels having a picnic in your neighbour's backyard
Scare them away
"honey.... he's having s playdate with the squirrel is again...."
Back to sleep 😂
Epic
🤣😂🤣😂
I just LOVE watching Mark's videos! They really entertain me!!
Какой вы молодец! Удивительные белочки! Особенно понравилась Гас! Такие умные животные! Спасибо!❤😂
Mark: Is bored at home
Also Mark: Makes an American Ninja Warriors course for squirrels
why does everybody on youtube try to talk like this?
Typical Mark lol
That could be a reality web for youtube, surprised nobody has tried yet...
Tha'ts mark
@@foshizzlefy yeah, i hate this format.
Mark: builds the best squirrel proof bird feeder
Everyone at NASA: who the f let this man quit his job?
Except it wasn't squirrel-proof at all, was it?
@@swrennie better than the other ones... and i think the one with the spring could have worked with the spring soldered in place and you could secure the top with some screws to make it really squirrelpproof
I feel you all miss the fact that he DID make a squirrel proof feeder. He made the poles slippery 😁 He won, but showed how ingenious and determined squirrels really are.
I got an idea bring a gun and a squirrel trap
I forgot about that, i kind of glad he stopped working at nasa, if he didn’t we might not have gotten these videos
I watched this so many times and STILL enjoy it. Please do another squirrel video❤
Goverment: "work from home"
Mark Rober: "Squirrel parkour"
"Well turns out Phat Gus is not a dude.........and *he's* pregnant." 😂😂I'm sorry
Wow xd
omg
Phat Gus, is a male. Some male squarels have nipples.
Lol
Прекрасное наблюдение, белки шикарные...🤣👍, натуралист тоже👍
This is my favorite thing I've ever seen on UA-cam. Thank you for this!
This is the type of person I aspire to be, someone who makes intense “useless” contraptions because of boredom...
but first we need to be an ex-Nasa engineer😥
normal bored people: scrolling trough their phone
Mark Robert: Yeeting squirrels around his backyard

the magic of editing.
@@javacanda I don't think guss even cares
Francisco Garcia Gus is a pregnant trans squirrel leave him be
Gasp, girl Gus😀
Wow, I never thought that watching squirrels would be so much fun.
Phat gus can smell those wallnuts miles away before you even opened the package, he knew how to get to the end before you even built the platform
If your girl:
-likes walnuts
-opens up bird feeders all the time
-can land a 12 foot jump
-has a rather large stomach
She’s not your girl, she’s Phantastic Gus
Wdym Phantastic Gus is my girlfriend I’m confused
bravo
spreads out to be comfy on any surface
I appreciate squirrels like a thousand times more after watching this
Me too I’m just going to give them bird seeds, now so now they don’t have to try. 😂
Same!

And 3yrs later. Here I am enjoying this once again
Thanks so much for doing this. This was a lot of fun.
