Geography Coastlines: www.stattogori...
on JackSucksAtGeography we upload a range of easy to watch & sometimes educational geography related content. I have successfully learned all 197 countries and flags of the world. I also look at interesting maps to teach us more about different parts of the world and their culture. On this channel I also play Geoguessr.

Jack: Keeps talking and showing how USA and Alaska have a long coastline
Also Jack: Forgets about Canada being right next door with almost twice as long coastline lol
True, I was thinking this the whole time.
Same
canada was my first guess for longesr
Hg
I kept thinking that.
Jack: The USA has the longest coastline
Also Jack: Looks at a map to confirm but chooses to ignore Canada
Canada: Has the longest coastline by far
No Norway dose
@@RylanandGraham Well, technically they're all infinite so it's a stupid debate to have.
@@RylanandGraham Canada has more then Norway but Norway is up their (it's #2)
No it doesn't
@@coolgameryoutube6504 Yes it does. 243,000 km. Google is your friend.
Jack constantly missing Canada is hilarious
Canada hos the longest coastline in the word
bro gonna get called out by his Canadian viewers
I was waiting for so long
Ikr
Bro I was bouta comment because Canada has a coastline of over 220,000
As a canadian I was hoping for canada to be there so jack can see which country actually has the longest coastline
Same I am apauled
Same
I’m not Canadian but same
Same here
I am mad to because i am Canadian as well.
Jack: Usa or Russia prolly have the longest coastline
Canada: **Cutely disappears**
My mind didn't go to Russia or Brazil, I was wondering about Indonesia and Canada
I wonder how he didnt even mention canada in the vid
@@Hiethan check the channel name again :D
@@amostein814 dam he does suck jkjk
@@Starlyrra_II To be fair, no one ever really thinks of Canada.
If I had a dollar for every time jack said “I could be wrong” I could feed a family of 6

Congrats, youre fed@@wilhelmbanan
Or being wrong about coastlines with Canada
As a Canadian I cackled when Jack thought Brazil might have the longest coastline 🤣🤣
SAME!

Jack confidently knowing the right answer and clicking the wrong answer is just another level of content I'm looking for
Haha we loved that bit too
Jack: USA has the longest coastline.
Canada: are you sure about that.
As a Canadian this put a hole in my heart
Yeah, me too :(
The US will have the longest coastline after the invasion.
Im suffering with you friend as a fellow québécois
I was wiat for him to clock it but he never did :(
Facts
Canada when Jack is looking at a map: ceases to exist
Canada actually has the most with 265,052km of coastline according to the game, well done Canada 🇨🇦
Damn. A whole 265 kilometers? Das crazy.
265 kilometers is kinda small ngl
Why thank you
@@notyepper It literally the world’s longest
@@Mushe_ aint no way 265 kilometers is the longest when the USA got like 100,000 kilometers
Norway's coastline is actually very controversial. Depending on which agency does the measurements the lengths are very different. This is due to the coastline paradox. Would recommend watching some youtube videos on it cause it really is quite cool. Basically a coastline does not have a defined length, but the smaller your unit of measurement, the more precise the total length is. Because of fjords and having about 240K islands, Norway's coastline is massive. But if you use a large enough unit of measurement, many of those become insignificant. Wikipedia uses 2 sources for the coastlines of countries, and Norway is either the 2nd or 7th longest coastline, so there really is a big difference.
Jack is making so many unusual noises in this video and they'll all make good no context clips.😂
Hi jack, i just wanna say: I've watched you for 2 years and you've inspired me in geography. THX ❤
*THX sounds getting progressively louder*
Love these videos mate, Jack and Drew give me chill vibes late night.
U haven't seen the whole thing
@@fsgbitty why? I have seen it, i usually see at 2x speed so
Amazing. Great score. Some brilliant question combinations. We were praying for Canada to pop up :D Thanks so much for playing!
Norway and Finland have an enormous coastline because of their thousands of islands which really add up
norway doesn't have many islands (compared to finland), it's the fjords that make the coastline so long
@@nzredwolf4048 Norway has the second most islands behind Sweden and Finland is third
@@cleverstone1097 ah, i did not know that
What about the country that has most islands ( sweden)
and i did it like that cuz i don't want to get banned
Jack: goes on about the USA having such a long coastline
Every Canadian watching: no no no!
Real (From a Canadain)
Is it really even a coastline if it's all frozen? I mean what good is it if I can't go to the beach?
That’s so real (canadian)
So true
all of its not really "frozen"@@xviper2k
6:08 Just so you now there are 2 main reports of coastlines in countries. The app jack is playing with follows the world resources institute report
However the world factbook report(by CIA) is used by Wikipedia and most encyclopedias according to which USA is 9th and the top 3 are:-
1.Canada 202,080 km
2.Norway 83,281 km
3.Indonesia 54,716 km
However the report by world resources institute which is followed more is:-
1.Canada 265,523 km
2.USA 133,312 km
3. Russia 110,310 km
*Comment which do you think is better
I am seeing so many people copy bits of my ORIGINAL comment and me getting only one like 😀😀😁😁😅😅😐😐😔😔😩😩😭😭
I clicked your pfp to see ypur pg comment to bring back to this one lmao
The CIA is more accurate
The islands in the Nordic countries also add up to the coast line (Finland, Norway and Sweden are the top 3 countries with most islands, all have between 178,947 to 267,570 islands. In comparation, Canada is in 4th place with 52,455 islands)
kai is doing such a great job at editing
I have to do geography revision for homework and we are doing coasts thank you jack 😊❤
As a Canadian citizen, I am slightly offended that you didn't even mention us at all in a coastline video, being the longest and all lol
same
I feel like deifining the length of a coastline is quiet difficult due to the coastline paradox so idk what data this game is based on but it feels strange because an argument for different lenghs can easily be made
As far as I can tell, the source this game uses is the World Resources Institute, but yeah, I agree that it does feel a little strange.
Someone's watched a RealLifelore video
Jack getting really into his borders and coastlines lol
Well according to my calculations it is subjective which one is longer, I could explain but I would recommend RLL video on it. actually I will explain, so basically it's called the coastline paradox, let's say you had 4 massive rulers to measure the UK. it wouldn't be very accurate, because the rulers are to big to measure the details, but if you were to use 8 rulers to measure it instead, it would be like 400km larger. That principal can go on infinitely, like if you were measuring with a 1cm ruler the uk would be 100,000km instead of 8,000km and if you measured using atoms there would be so many twists and turns, that it would be something like 100sextillion km. I know it sounds unbelievable but it's true, I would recommend watching the real life lore video, as he explains further.
Always wondered why we can't just use the same ruler. I guess that would be wrong aswell...
@Jesen Livesly lol, just watch real life lore's video on it instead!
And by the way, if you wanted to know what a sextillion is here you go, 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
I am sad that Canada hadnt poppin up. I am curious about the coastline with all these arctic Islands
Same
It's #1
243,000 km.
im doing geography at school and your videos really help me with it!
1:41 jack thinks Portugal and Norway are almost the same 💀💀👍🏻
As a Norwegian I feel kinda offended
He considered Portugal and Brazil.
Keep up the great up! My Geography has improved so much since I started watching your videos! Thank you!
it will be cool if you would do a country rating video
Yea
Thank you jack,as I started learning countries after watching your videos and now I know every single country in the world and by best time is 8:59
you still have to do that flag tier list if you havent started already
I was genuinely really surprised to hear that Jack has never heard of Macau.
Same lmao
What you have to realise is that the Nordic countries have a lot of islands and their coastlines add up a massive lot to the coastlines as well.
This was pretty interesting seeing him learn the coastlines
And didn't learn about the longest coastline ( canada ) with almost double compare to US
Jacks giggles are the best I love his giggles!
The fact that Jack knew who Lewis was at the end made my day.
Love this, you always make me smile Jack 💕
Thanks for your content Jack! My son Dylan is 6 today and is now a flags / countries genius! Happy birthday Dylan! 🎉
Fun fact: you cant really know the real coastline of a country because you it’s depend’s on the ruler’s size
OMG WHAT AN ORIGINAL FACT NOBODY HAS EVER HEARD OF
6:14 "But that's (Hawaii) not going to add much" Jack is forgetting the territories: American Samoa.
Guam.
Northern Mariana Islands.
Puerto Rico.
United States Virgin Islands.
Minor Outlying Islands. Bajo Nuevo Bank. Baker Island. Howland Island. Jarvis Island. Johnston Atoll. Kingman Reef. Midway Islands. Navassa Island. Palmyra Atoll.
Guam only has bases
@@SocialistNerd And you're wrong
@@SonOfMuta How? On a map Guam is technically an independent country
Jack is the type of guy to feel sorry for a country not with its friends
POV: Kazakhstan being the Biggest Landlocked Country in the World, the Game: nO kAzAkHsTaN iS 4 tHoUsAnD kiLoMeTeRs
Jack: completely forgets about Canada
Me: praying for Canada to come up because it’s coastlines is 202,000
You. Don't ever forget my country again, or we'll drown you in maple syrup!
Jack just so you know Canada has the longest coastline, and Norway is #2, IK crazy
@@Starlyrra_II ikr so crazy 😱😂😆🤣😆
1:39 Jack when he realises Norway has one of the longest coastlines in the world (I did some quick Googling and some sources say it’s #2 or #3)
9:20 indonesia is the 14th biggest country.. its definitely not top 5
At 7:46, I actually confuse Taiwan with Samoa 🇼🇸 but that’s in the past now
Jack: The USA must have the longest coastline in the world
Canada:
Jack is like: USA has the largest coastline.
Canada: Am I a joke to you?
9:24 Jack… Indonesia isn’t even top 10 biggest
Jack thought about USA , Russia and Brazil for longest coastline but not even thought of Canada
3:33 The biggest coastline has Canada!
The 2nd biggest is norway
I love that jack is casually missing the 2nd largest country
Jack: the USA has the longest coastline
Me: *cries in Canadian*
7:51 Brunei only borders malaysia
Canada is the only country that borders 3 oceans. Yet jack forgets that it’s coastline is 2 times longer than the USA
surely countries like france with all of it's over-seas territories touches at least 3
@@of3788 maybe but counting just the main part of the country no overseas territories Canada is the only one
Everyone: Talking about Canada and its coastline
Me: *AlL oUr AnSwErS aRe BeInG aNsWeReD*
10:43 LEWIS
The reason Norway is so big (2nd longest in the world) is cus Norway has their famous Fjords that stretches hundreds of kilometers inland. Coastline is also counted with the islands and Norway has the second most islands in the world. Also svaldbard is kinda big.
0:31 island, island island
island, island, island
Nice educational fun video jack
You know what's funny? Jack has been talking about USA having a very large coastline but he completely forgets about Canada lmao
As a Canadian I’m deeply offended that Jack didn’t even consider Canada as the longest (which it is) I was just hoping it would pop up just so I could see is reaction
9:56 what was that noise
A pirate 🏴☠️
Jack: Does the US have or Russia have the longest coastline? Maybe Brazil even?
Canada: Am I a joke to you?
We’ve gotta make sure Jack knows so he talks about it in the next video
Finland doesn’t have a coastline at the top 0:49
6:45
It's actually australia. It's bigger than greenland and even almost double the size
Fun fact the Seychelles have 747 km and the Boeing 747 have the same name 😅
I love these videos. Love from South Africa 🇿🇦
Jack: I’m pretty sure that the USA has the longest coastline!
Also Jack: Forgetting Canada the whole video, (he even scrolled right past it, when he was looking at how "long" USA’s coastline is)
Me The Whole Video: 🤦🏻♂️ Canada has the longest coastline Jack, not USA!
Actually, longest coastline is either Norway or Sweden. It is a little bit disputed because of the coastline paradox.
@@thetriplee6181 I searched it up and it said "Norway has the second longest coastline in the world after Canada, with a length of 100,915 km including all the islands" and it said "Sweden enjoys 3,218 km (2,000 mi) of coastline, much of it in the Baltic Sea"
1:13 "Ghana is landlocked on 3 sides" Jack doesn't know what landlocked means 😂🤣
Latvia : You made me proud of my loss 😅
Jack you are a genie of countries
America Has the longest coastline, Oh Jaack! Canada, has the longest coast with lift 500,000-980,000 Km of coastline. Caspian Sea: I'm A Lake! Jack: Your a Sea! World: Your a Lake and a sea. Video Awsome! ❤❤❤😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉BYE!
Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!
I hear crying Canadian noises 3:36
“Alaska does the heavy lifting” as he ignores the huge country attached to it with several Alaska-sized sections.
according to the games logic, Finland has over 60k coastline because of all their lakes
Jack:usa has the longest coastline not Canada
Canada:what about me?
In most of jacksucksatgeography thumbnails he looks confused 😂
I don't know why Kazakhstan was here, the Caspian Sea, despite its name, is a lake, so Kazakhstan is landlocked.
Im sad we didnt get both canada and chili in this cuz their coastlines are also huge
Norway also has a ton of fjords and areas that jut into the mainland, which creates a lot of coastline and islands
To be exact Canda has about 215000km when the USA has about 113000km
Fun Fact: 2019. I worked in Neum, city on the small seacoast of Bosnia and Herzegovina
9:21 Indonesia is one of the top 5 biggest countries

The coastline paradox: Ima just head out
New Video Idea: naming all the countries in the "coronation march"
Yes jack, the hit oceanic country Mauritius.
Jack: USA has the longest coastline.
Canada: Ahem. Are you missing something?
Dont know where this website got their data from but the numbers dont match any I can find from other sources and the rankings are all over the place as well.
Coastline paradox
As an Australian I classify Australia as an island and include all of Oceania as the continent. So Australia is the Biggest Island!
"Ghana Is landlocked"
-JackSucksAtGeography ~2023
as a canadian i am sobbing that he completely fogor Canada even when scrolling past it on a map 😭
Canada's coastline is the world's longest, measuring 243,042 km (includes the mainland coast and the coasts of offshore islands). This compares with Indonesia (54,716 km), Russia (37,653 km), the United States (19,924 km) and China (14,500 km).
Jack should play flagle
Jack im doing a school project on Equatorial guinea do you have any facts or information
