The best thing to realize it is that the first sentence is "Hi. You're on a rock, floating in space" while the last sentence is "Where the hell am I?" So if you replay the video right after watching, it's a kind of inception of humans developing enough to ask how they developed, and it being explained to them up until the point where they became smart enough to ask how they developed, and so on... a really clever idea!
The 7 years war was not showing each country one on one with each other that was just showing the two sides and the alliances of each. Sweden wasn't running around America killing natives. 😀
@@mikelarsen5836 Knowledge and intelligence are two different things if you lived your whole life never knowing that something like a tree even existed and then you were placed in a forest you'd seem pretty stupid. Or if you were told in your history class that the American natives gave the land to the settlers while those that didn't were just war mongering savages who had no understanding of society so they needed to be taught sometimes with force. This was what I learned for years then I moved out of the States and low and behold, I discovered what actually happened. Intelligence is ones ability to recall information if your knowledge only consists of information that is incorrect or unknown that doesn't make you unintelligent that makes you mistaken but luckily with videos like this we can learn from our mistakes and that is the smart thing to do which Alice did. Now you can hopefully learn something yourself.
26:05 don't sweat it every sentence in the video involves entire fields of academic study each covering lifetimes of information in thousands of books and papers. the important part IMO is to realize the information is out there for anyone willing. also linking to 10:47 of Greeks thinking about stuff: Socrates said he's the smart one because he knows that he knows nothing, which it turns out is more or less the basis of the scientific method, nothing is known until it's tested.
the fact that Bill Wurtz managed to get this level of generalization (in a good way) and separation from everything specific, as to be as laconic as humanly possible, when one's to tackle the enterity of the human history it's just... I'm a lack of words to describe how amazing that is this is the stuff the 90's promised us that internet would bring
Yeah, the Opium Wars is a pretty messed up story. A short version is Britain helped smuggle Opium into China to cause a drug problem over trade agreements, Extra History did a series on it that's really great.
@@quakxy_dukx to think Britain fucked over all the world and this world would be totally different then it is now if Britain didnt do even half of what they did.
Relating to the Prussia and Hanover bit you were confused about: Hanover in this context refers not to the city of Hanover, but the Kingdom of Hanover which controlled parts of northern Germany. The Kingdom of Prussia would go on to become the German Empire, so it'd be more accurate to call them Germany, though, at the time, Germany wasn't a country, rather, a mess of smaller states, Prussia at the time controlled most of Northeast Germany, what is now the southwest of modern-day Poland (Called Silesia), most of the north of modern-day Poland, and the Kaliningrad Oblast (that bit of Russia separate from the rest of Russia between Poland and Lithuania. Prussia is pronounced similar to Russia, but the etymology is completely different. Prussia was named after the Old Prussians/Baltic Prussians. Russia was named after the Rus' people, which were originally Norse who assimilated with the local slavic tribes.
also, IIRC, "sweden" at the time also included norway and finland... the easier way i've noticed with this video is if you can pause before the list, the map is shaded so you can see the territory on each side of the list...
@@cynicalminion It didnt, Norway was still under Denmark for 50 years after the seven years war. They lost it to sweden in 1814. Sweden did control Finland, Estonia, St. Petersburg, Pommerania and Livonia so they were pretty dang big

The first confusing part makes reference to scientists stating that the big bang didn't just created matter, but also time and space. People who cannot conceptualize things beyond their daily experience, don't like the scientists answers to questions like "if there was no space, where did the big bang happen?", which is "trying to answer a [where] question when there was no space makes no sense". Something similar happens with the question "what was before the big bang" and "it makes no sense asking before and after outside the realm of time". Some people use the metaphor of small frogs living in the bottom of a well, and one of the frogs learns that math indicates there could be oceans with waves, no walls around them, and immense skies above with clouds and stars. Nothing in their experience would help to make sense of that. How could for instance, the water not run away without walls around it, or make non-stopping waves? Some frogs would say an ocean could not exist. Similarly, nothing in our daily experience can reflect what the math says about the big bang. That is why these concepts sound so weird.
Well, space is the measure of how different things placed relative to each other. So, if there is nothing (no matter) - term 'space' has no meaning. Time is how we see sequence of events. And just like that, no matter means no events, no events means no time.
There is also a theory that the big bang was just one of many occasions of the universe coming into existence, then collapsing into it's self after who knows how long and coming into existence again, basically saying that it's a never ending cycle of creation, destruction and recreation
@@Aliceingingerland yeah, mine did too the first time I watched it. It also triggered a bunch of "oh I vaguely remember that" or "I remember that word popping up. Huh, that's what it was about."
While rewatching this one a dozen or so times, pay attention to the visuals. There are details in there that reference details that the voiceover doesn't, or which are otherwise amusing. Like that cameo during the frenetic lead-up to the society jingle. Or the details of that 10 step program. Or even the names of various kingdoms, etc., on the map when things "break".
One I just saw on my last viewing is England's flag slowly going from (I guess?) the original red cross on a white background to the current Union Jack. Adding the blue triangles with a white X. And then adding in the red X.
For the first part, a pretty accepted theory about the Big Bang is that time and space could not have existed, or at least existed in any way we would recognize, before the Big Bang.
Still hoping you could react to “how the universe is way bigger than you think”. It’s quite similar to this one (perhaps a bit less chaotic and comedic). And I think you would love Axis of Awesome’s “4 chord song” (live version). To persuade you even further, I’m going to casually mention that they are Australian too… 😅
Yeah, the super massive stars from the beginning were so large that they burnt uo after only a few million years. Those that didn't explode, collapsed and turned into black holes. These black holes spent the entirety of the universe, eating matter and growing larger. Now they're so massive that galaxies formed around them

The Tomb Kings, known as the Priest Kings in their former lives, are the undying rulers of Nehekhara, an ancient Human civilisation that formed a great and powerful empire some two thousand five hundred years before the birth of Sigmar Heldenhammer and the founding of the Empire. Out of all the unliving creatures that would claim dominion and royalty over the dead, only the Tomb Kings could truly claim such masterful and undisputed sovereignty. For they had once ruled a mighty and far-flung empire during a time when the rest of Mankind were little more than savage barbarians. Long ago, during an ancient and forgotten age, Nehekhara stood as a shining beacon of civilisation and Human achievement; a golden age when its cities shone with a majestic splendour, its buildings crafted from magnificent marble and limestone, its armies capable of conquering entire kingdoms. In this long-lost age, Nehekhara's mighty rulers reigned as living gods amongst men. But this great realm was destroyed millennia ago through acts of great treachery and powerful sorcery. The living of Nehekhara perished long ago in a single, mournful night, and in their absence, the dead stirred from their graves and claimed the land anew. Even as their ancient civilisation now lies buried beneath the sand, its once verdant plains turned to searing desert and their mighty and glorious empire fractured and in ruin, the Tomb Kings have once more awoken from their deep sleep. Rising from their decrepit sarcophagi, the mummified rulers of Nehekhara awoke with eyes of burning balefire, their thirst for power, conquest and vengeance just as strong in death as in life. They have returned to reclaim that which is rightfully theirs, their legions innumerable, rising up from the scorching sand brandishing weapons of polished bronze and priceless gold. Ancient, emotionless and spiteful to all those that have slighted them, woe betide those foolish enough to stand before their silent onslaught.
When you stopped to look up those nations in the versus lists, it wasn't one on ones in the 7 year war, it was all the ones on the left vs the ones on the right
@@thehoogard That's not as far-fetched as it might seem. Sweden did have some early interactions with Native Americans in their short-lived colony of New Sweden. It's not far from Iroquois' territories. But by the time of the 7 years war Sweden had lost the colony to the Dutch.
@@havcola6983 That's true, but as you say, we're almost 200 years later, plus the "New Sweden" colony actually had excellent relationships with the natives as far as I've understood it.
prussia was between germany and poland, and hanover was a citystate and the house of hanover was ruling england at the time of the 7 years war, which is also called world war zero, because it was the first transcontinal war
also the first minute explaines that there wasn't time and space before the big bang, so everything happend at any possible time, because it did not happen, because time in our sense did't exist
Talking about history. You might also like the history about why South Korea Remains a Free and Democratic Country by watching The "March Of The Valiant: Philippine Expeditionary Force To Korea" it's a Documentary about the contribution of the filipino soldiers who fights in korean war for south korea, and how 1,000 filipino soldiers, Stand and defend its Ground against 40,000 North koreans and chinese soldiers combined, in order to not let them inside the corridor of south korea😇 it's a histrory that only few people's know. Because most of the people only know that America is the one who is always in the back of other countries😇

I have a request. A great comedian passed away about a month ago and I don't see him getting a lot of reactions, and it kind of saddens me because he was SO talented. So I was wondering if you could do an Amazing Jonathan reaction?
@@Aliceingingerland Thank you. I have so much love for stand up comedy. So I'm saddened when a really talented comedian passes and they don't get the respect their talent and work deserve.
Just remember that you're standing on a planet that is evolving, revolving at 900 miles an hour......... and prey that there is intelligent life somewhere up in space coz there is bugger all down here on earth.
It's like getting all history downloaded in your brain. After this you can say "I know history!", kind of like Neo in The Matrix saying "I know kung-fu!".
I have a similar issue with my hair. If I do tight rags for at least a day I get a curl that lasts okay - but that doesn't produce big Elegant curls. When I was a bridesmaid I dyed my hair and clip in extensions and the hairdresser (who has experience trying to trick my hair into doing things) curled the extensions and curled my hair through them.
i think i heard cairo was deeefintely not the only city affected. also heard that the people of mali suffered greatly while he pranced around north africa lol
Fun (and appropriate!) reaction to this phenomenal video, like. Five years later, it still blows my mind. And it's filled with awesome lines : "Don't worry about Rome, it won't fall" "I wonder if there's room for Moors!" "Khmer!" "Where?" "Here!" "'Wait!', said Christopher Columbus, probably smoking crack" "Then the Dutch revolt and all the hipsters move to Amsterdam" XD 20:49 "You can make a religion out of this" is the most complex part of the whole video, imo. The Enlightenment has produced the ideologies behind all the great totalitarian, murderous regimes of the 20th century, and an ideology can be considered a secular religion. I'm French, I know. Oh, and you don't have to watch the video "over and over again", sister, you need to read books, now! :D
One question I like to ask sometimes is "What would you see, at the center of the observable Universe?" The somewhat strange answer, "Whatever you're seeing now," makes sense when you learn that the entire Universe was once (as near as anyone can tell) a single point, and all of space and time has been expanding from it ever since. There's no privileged place that's the center of everything. So, if you're the observer, you're by definition at the center of the observable Universe.
Loved it, somehow everytime I hear of this video I always think of Melodysheep's "Timelapse of the future: A journey to the end of time" Its truly a masterpiece. Would be a good reaction, but its another long video though.
Alice dear, if there is one thing that most schools don't really teach us it's the fact that everything, and I mean really everything is connected to everything. Schools teach us a bunch of stuff, like literature, history, philosophy, arts almost as if those were independent and separately evolving things. In fact those are all deeply connected to each other and also to everything else: society, religions, economy, science, climate changes and so on. And this is where this video - besides being really entertaining - does an excellent job, it gives you the fundamental idea that nothing ever happened without a reason. Every event has a cause and an effect. Sadly that doesn't help us predict things more efficiently, but it does help us understand the nature of our species a lot better.
The memory card in your camera may be formatted with FAT32 which has a maximum size limit, if your camera can store in NFTS it should be OK or a completely different problem.
Some file systems don't support file sizes over 4 gigabytes, so that could be messing up with your video recordings at 15 minutes; the file's just gotten too large. Maybe the SD card, if that's what you use, could be formatted to a different file system that supports larger files, but that'd only work if your camera can work with that file system. Note that any data on a SD card that is formatted will be erased, so save it somewhere else first if you try that.
It’s a funny and interesting video, which is the charm of it. An even cooler part, in some tiny way, you’d be in the version of it 1,000 years from now. We are living a story that (hopefully) will be told long after we are gone.
The best thing to realize it is that the first sentence is "Hi. You're on a rock, floating in space" while the last sentence is "Where the hell am I?"

Yep, put the video on repeat and it's the most sanity-draining version of "This is the song that never ends" you've ever heard :D
Never thought of it that way, that's a really clever observation.

I really enjoyed the “Why can’t we all get along?!” summation. I agree. Seems so simple.
I love this video it’s so fun, some of Bill Wurtz’s songs are silly and ridiculous! I’m glad you had such a fun reaction to it! Also your hair looks fantastic, it’s going to look so lovely for your wedding!
Awww thank you so much!
@3:47 -- '"brain.exe stopped responding'"😄
at the end
Her : that was great, i learned a lot
Her brain : '"you're running out of disk space '"
Anyway great video
As always: a wonderful reaction! I hope all is well, and keep up the incredible content!
“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
I live in Las Vegas, so any sight of greenery is spectacular to me. Of course, you do live in Australia so the amount of venomous critters kinda prohibits me of actually visiting. Send more vids of your outdoors so we all can be envious from a safe distance.
Hey, your t-shirt says Paradise California! I'm from the town of Paradise, California! It's not a big place - it's actually a really small rural town, so I never expected a t-shirt with our town on it to end up all the way in your neck of the woods! Most of our town burned down in 2018, so besides the fire it doesn't get talked about much. Fascinating to see it on your shirt after clicking on this video randomly in my recommended!
woah
I'm Polish so I'll do a tip - take the ze from zebra as "zi", the w from water as that ł and the rest is like you said - Ko-zie-łek
The important thing I've learned from this is nothing was ever any better. The past was the worst.
As George Carlin said, the planet is fine, it's not going anywhere. WE are.
WOW! Almost 6 thousand subscribers. Congratulations Alice, the channel is going gangbusters. Another great video. Loved your reaction.
Also the hair and makeup look great. How are the nerves going with the wedding date getting closer?
Sugar is so goddamn profitable you might forget to not do slavery.
Now that’s a weird bumper sticker! 😂
interesting fact... there will never be more gold on earth than there is, right now.
You just broke my heart! I adopted a stray cat that looks exactly like your kitty! He had a terminal disease and I watched him pass away. Everything thing I love goes away in the end.
im going to tell my kids this was the discovery channel
I didn't know I needed this today. But I absolutely did. 😆 Thanks for uploading this
Hahaha awww yay!! Thank you for watching!
Yes, please react to History of Japan. This was great. Thank you! Subbed.
I've also really enjoyed Lemmino's videos The Vanishing of Flight 370, The Lost Colony of Roanoke and The Search for D. B. Cooper.
Tuesday afternoon, I finish work, make a cuppa tea, collapse into my recliner, pick up the remote and go to gingerland
Bill Wurtz is the primary reason anyone had heard about Tonga before suddenly everyone did last December.
The best part about this Bill Wurtz video is that if you loop it, it's seamless.
The camera stopping at 10 minutes sounds like you're recording with it as a standalone recording device. You'll want to connect it to your pc and use it as a webcam instead. That way you'll be able to record for as long as you have electricity.
I love watching first time reactions to this video. Loved it!
You should check out teachers reacting to this, like Teacher Eddie or Simple Viking, they drop so much extra knowledge.
Great reaction video! I was cackling at the white screen jumpscare! 😆 Maybe you can keep that short frame where you said "Ad." at the steam factories part and use it in future videos? Just a suggestion. Have a great day, everyone!
Hahaha it really got me 🤣 haha good idea!
The Tomb Kings, known as the Priest Kings in their former lives, are the undying rulers of Nehekhara, an ancient Human civilisation that formed a great and powerful empire some two thousand five hundred years before the birth of Sigmar Heldenhammer and the founding of the Empire. Out of all the unliving creatures that would claim dominion and royalty over the dead, only the Tomb Kings could truly claim such masterful and undisputed sovereignty. For they had once ruled a mighty and far-flung empire during a time when the rest of Mankind were little more than savage barbarians.
Long ago, during an ancient and forgotten age, Nehekhara stood as a shining beacon of civilisation and Human achievement; a golden age when its cities shone with a majestic splendour, its buildings crafted from magnificent marble and limestone, its armies capable of conquering entire kingdoms. In this long-lost age, Nehekhara's mighty rulers reigned as living gods amongst men. But this great realm was destroyed millennia ago through acts of great treachery and powerful sorcery. The living of Nehekhara perished long ago in a single, mournful night, and in their absence, the dead stirred from their graves and claimed the land anew.
Even as their ancient civilisation now lies buried beneath the sand, its once verdant plains turned to searing desert and their mighty and glorious empire fractured and in ruin, the Tomb Kings have once more awoken from their deep sleep. Rising from their decrepit sarcophagi, the mummified rulers of Nehekhara awoke with eyes of burning balefire, their thirst for power, conquest and vengeance just as strong in death as in life.
They have returned to reclaim that which is rightfully theirs, their legions innumerable, rising up from the scorching sand brandishing weapons of polished bronze and priceless gold. Ancient, emotionless and spiteful to all those that have slighted them, woe betide those foolish enough to stand before their silent onslaught.
lol
4:09 Why she'd say hello like she's on the phone 😅😅👍 I love it
This video taught me more than any class ever did
When you stopped to look up those nations in the versus lists, it wasn't one on ones in the 7 year war, it was all the ones on the left vs the ones on the right
Haha, yeah. I can guarantee us Swedes did not sail over to North America to fight some native americans :)
@@thehoogard That's not as far-fetched as it might seem. Sweden did have some early interactions with Native Americans in their short-lived colony of New Sweden. It's not far from Iroquois' territories. But by the time of the 7 years war Sweden had lost the colony to the Dutch.
@@havcola6983 That's true, but as you say, we're almost 200 years later, plus the "New Sweden" colony actually had excellent relationships with the natives as far as I've understood it.
Damn that hair looks great! Also thanks for the reaction, it's a great video haha
love how he gave basic cliffs notes to HOTEW & HOJ💖
My favorite history channel is Oversimplified. I highly recommend his channel, it is so good.
I wish I watched this before all my chemistry classes 🤣 so cool!
The bit that got me was the little *ding* sound with *MINGGGGG*
prussia was between germany and poland, and hanover was a citystate and the house of hanover was ruling england at the time of the 7 years war, which is also called world war zero, because it was the first transcontinal war
also the first minute explaines that there wasn't time and space before the big bang, so everything happend at any possible time, because it did not happen, because time in our sense did't exist
YOUR CAT IS A BENGAL AND I'M IN LOVE.
Talking about history. You might also like the history about why South Korea Remains a Free and Democratic Country by watching The "March Of The Valiant: Philippine Expeditionary Force To Korea" it's a Documentary about the contribution of the filipino soldiers who fights in korean war for south korea, and how 1,000 filipino soldiers, Stand and defend its Ground against 40,000 North koreans and chinese soldiers combined, in order to not let them inside the corridor of south korea😇 it's a histrory that only few people's know. Because most of the people only know that America is the one who is always in the back of other countries😇
observation, the first line of the video is the answer to the question Bill Wurtz asks at the very end, meaning the video can be looped forever
Great reaction. For not knowing much history you seemed to pick up on a lot. Subscribed.
I have seen this video a dozen times and JUST got the "try some metal, it's underground" joke...
Ginger hair stronger than hairspray. Another reason to fear them.
You look exactly like my old history teacher, except she was a little older. This video made me so happy to watch especially because the old teacher I had was, and is, my favorite teacher I've ever had :)
I have a request. A great comedian passed away about a month ago and I don't see him getting a lot of reactions, and it kind of saddens me because he was SO talented. So I was wondering if you could do an Amazing Jonathan reaction?
Awww 🥺 will look into him!
@@Aliceingingerland Thank you. I have so much love for stand up comedy. So I'm saddened when a really talented comedian passes and they don't get the respect their talent and work deserve.
Damn. I had no idea Jonathan died. That really bites. I love his stand-up/magic routines. Pure chaos when he takes the stage.
@@mattfraser9661 Fuck. I didn't know either. AJ was my spirit animal, if I believed in such a thing. Thanks for suggesting him, brother.
that might have been the cutest reaction to this video :D
Just remember that you're standing on a planet that is evolving, revolving at 900 miles an hour......... and prey that there is intelligent life somewhere up in space coz there is bugger all down here on earth.
The "history of the entire world, i guess" is like getting flashbanged with information for 20 minutes.
Your background is awesome and I love cats!!! :D
The left side of the wall needs a silver play button
You now NEED to watch "Saving The Planet" by George Carlin!!!
The music in this is insane but brilliant.
This is one my all time UA-cam faves
Ooo This is a fun video, can't wait to see this reaction!
It's like getting all history downloaded in your brain.
After this you can say "I know history!", kind of like Neo in The Matrix saying "I know kung-fu!".
It was cool to see your delight at the beginning and sad to see your exhaustion toward the end.
I have a similar issue with my hair. If I do tight rags for at least a day I get a curl that lasts okay - but that doesn't produce big Elegant curls. When I was a bridesmaid I dyed my hair and clip in extensions and the hairdresser (who has experience trying to trick my hair into doing things) curled the extensions and curled my hair through them.
You should react to After Ever After by Paint if you haven't seen it. It is a hilarious music series. There are 3 of them.
The king of Mali spent so much gold in Cairo, he caused an economic crisis that lasted 12 years.
i think i heard cairo was deeefintely not the only city affected. also heard that the people of mali suffered greatly while he pranced around north africa lol
Fun (and appropriate!) reaction to this phenomenal video, like. Five years later, it still blows my mind. And it's filled with awesome lines :
"Don't worry about Rome, it won't fall"
"I wonder if there's room for Moors!"
"Khmer!" "Where?" "Here!"
"'Wait!', said Christopher Columbus, probably smoking crack"
"Then the Dutch revolt and all the hipsters move to Amsterdam"
XD
20:49 "You can make a religion out of this" is the most complex part of the whole video, imo. The Enlightenment has produced the ideologies behind all the great totalitarian, murderous regimes of the 20th century, and an ideology can be considered a secular religion. I'm French, I know.
Oh, and you don't have to watch the video "over and over again", sister, you need to read books, now! :D
I literally watched so many reactions to his video that ik half the script memorized
Speaking of a fun format to learn history, might I recommend Puppet History from Watcher. It's fun. Bring some jelly beans or jelly baby's.
One question I like to ask sometimes is "What would you see, at the center of the observable Universe?" The somewhat strange answer, "Whatever you're seeing now," makes sense when you learn that the entire Universe was once (as near as anyone can tell) a single point, and all of space and time has been expanding from it ever since. There's no privileged place that's the center of everything. So, if you're the observer, you're by definition at the center of the observable Universe.
I always love the random "gravity" when it says people getting together (8:41) xD
Loved it, somehow everytime I hear of this video I always think of Melodysheep's "Timelapse of the future: A journey to the end of time" Its truly a masterpiece. Would be a good reaction, but its another long video though.
Absolute masterpiece, so happy to see it referenced
Alice dear, if there is one thing that most schools don't really teach us it's the fact that everything, and I mean really everything is connected to everything. Schools teach us a bunch of stuff, like literature, history, philosophy, arts almost as if those were independent and separately evolving things. In fact those are all deeply connected to each other and also to everything else: society, religions, economy, science, climate changes and so on. And this is where this video - besides being really entertaining - does an excellent job, it gives you the fundamental idea that nothing ever happened without a reason. Every event has a cause and an effect. Sadly that doesn't help us predict things more efficiently, but it does help us understand the nature of our species a lot better.
The memory card in your camera may be formatted with FAT32 which has a maximum size limit, if your camera can store in NFTS it should be OK or a completely different problem.
Bill Wurtz is Jazz
I kinda feel bad for Bill. He's taking shots at people with that last line and literally no one notices.
And then you realize that every ten seconds of this video is an entire uni course. It's no wonder it took him almost a year to make this video!
Some file systems don't support file sizes over 4 gigabytes, so that could be messing up with your video recordings at 15 minutes; the file's just gotten too large. Maybe the SD card, if that's what you use, could be formatted to a different file system that supports larger files, but that'd only work if your camera can work with that file system. Note that any data on a SD card that is formatted will be erased, so save it somewhere else first if you try that.
History of Japan time.
Weird how every 5 seconds of that is a book?
Love braids like that! You look great with it!
Also, great content obviously!
You give me strong AP Lang teacher vibes. Very good thing, I loved my AP Lang teacher.
It’s a funny and interesting video, which is the charm of it. An even cooler part, in some tiny way, you’d be in the version of it 1,000 years from now. We are living a story that (hopefully) will be told long after we are gone.
