fun fact, doctors just say there is something wrong with us then put us to sleep and after we wake up they say that we are “fixed” and charge us thousands of dollars
Loved the editor’s explanation. Simple, to the point, giving this channel’s vibes. Just perfect.

Fun fact: The first guy to use anesthesia in surgery, Robert Liston, also once cut a persons leg off so fast that a spectator died of shock, the patient and an aide to Robert also both died of sepsis from the unclean saw. This lead to the only known surgery with a 300 percent death rate.
I see someone’s being keeping up with their puppet history
this is one of my favorite things I know
Just “forgot” to leave out that this was because, at the time, surgery had to be done extremely quickly to minimize blood loss and risk of infection.
The aide died because he accidentally amputated his fingers together with the leg. I imagine the aide was holding the patient to place and Liston got… uh too enthusiastic.
… I have to look this up now because I can’t trust anything after this vid. You could all be in on this. IS EVERYTHING A LIE?!
my absolute favorite fun fact: that arrangement of four spikes at the end of a stegosaurus’s tail is called, scientifically, a thagomizer. It simply did not have a name until Gary Larson, creator of the Far Side comics, drew a panel in which a caveman lecturer is explaining dinosaur anatomy and says “Now this end is called the thagomizer… after the late Thag Simmons” and the scientific community just kinda ran with it (@katie.cali)
I love this fun fact so much I can already tell it’ll make me happy for years to come
I just saw the word thagomizer for the first time yesterday (i think in an article or video about women’s body parts being named after men who ‘discovered’ them)… what’s the word for the phenomenon where you have never heard of something and then when you hear about it the first time, suddenly you see it everywhere?
lmao as a huge gary larson fan this has always been one of my favourite facts

One of my favorite fun facts: The oldest “your mom” joke was discovered on a 3,500-year-old Babylonian tablet.
So you’re telling me that the one in Shakespeare’s “Titus Andronicus” wasn’t the first one?
THE SACRED TEXTS
This is true, contrary to popular belief it was not the Titus Andronicus that was the first, it was actually Babylonian tablets, presumably made by students. Although most of the joke has been lost over thousands of years, there is one thing that is certain from this joke, they are talking about your mother
[part that was lost over thousands of years] of your mother is by the one who has intercourse with her. What/who is it?
what was it
and did some one ask who’s Joe?
So what was the joke?
Fun fact: the word “oxymoron” comes from 2 Greek words:
Oxy (Oxus) – meaning sharp
Moron (Mōros) – meaning slow, stupid, or dull
So “oxymoron” means “sharp-dull” making it an oxymoron itself.
ah i love etymology

Fun fact: Kermit is implied to have caused 9/11. In a Muppets special in 2002, Kermit is shown the world if he didn’t exist, and the Twin Towers are still up. This implies that Kermit somehow caused it.

IN 2002? AFTER IT HAPPENED?

Fun fact: otters have a little pouch of skin under the arms, where they keep their favorite rock. It helps them open seashells, among other things, and we’ve got records of them getting upset when losing the Special Rock.
I’ve actually heard about this recently. i don’t remember if it was in school or just surfing on the internet lol
i accidentally first read this as “others” as in “others have a little pouch of skin under the arms” as in “other humans have a little pouch of skin under the arms where they keep their favorite rock and use it to open seashells and we’ve apparently been observing these other humans because we have records of them getting upset when they lose their skin pouch rock”

Fun fact: Back in 1802, there was a book titled “A Pickle for the Knowing Ones” written by american businessman Timothy Dexter, which he used to complain about politicians, the clergy, and his wife. However, the book was special in that it used zero punctuation and he pretty much spelled every word he could unconventionally. There were so many complaints that in the second edition, published in 1805, he added an extra page at the end with 11 lines of nothing but punctuation marks, which readers were instructed to insert wherever they felt they were necessary.
What a legendary person
sam o’nella
i know this one cuz of sam o’nella
Dexter was also dropped out of school when he wad very young too (I think around 8 years old).
I have this book.
Fun Fact: If you buy a bigger bed you get more bedroom but less bedroom

this works better in person, for this to be correct you need to say you get more bed room but less bedroom
Fun fact: water guns were invented on accident. Man named Lonnie Johnsons was an inventor/engineer and in 1982 while performing an experiment with water and piping he accidentally squirted water on himself. Instead of being mad he was intrigued by what he had made and it later became known as the first ever water gun.
That is false
The Heilongjiang hand cannon or hand-gun is a bronze hand cannon manufactured no later than 1288 and is the world’s oldest confirmed surviving firearm. It weighs 3.55 kg (7.83 pounds) and is 34 centimeters (13.4 inches) long.
@@Da-chimp Bro, the comment was about water guns, not firearms
@@great_hedgehog8199 ohhhhhh
My bad
a lot of discoveries and inventions are usually accidental and the story behind it. But this is pretty funny, ngl
Water pistols are nearly as old as the pistol itself, probably the first one was in the early 1700’s.
One of my favorites is that it’s illegal to suspiciously carry a Salmon in the UK. It’s part of the Salmon Act of 1986, and aimed at discouraging poaching, and it sort of just stuck around. This goes alongside some of my other favorite dumb laws like in some places, wearing clown costumes. Not sure where that came from. (s_tselnik)
how do you suspiciously carry a salmon? what methods of carrying salmon are suspicious as opposed to non-suspicious methods? how do you carry a salmon non-suspiciously?
I feel like is I’ve heard this somewhere, but I don’t know if that’s because it’s true, or false
This happens with a lot of the questions in this video though lol
“IS THAT FUCKING FISH JENGA?!”
“That guy looks fishy, he’s hiding something in his coat!”
In Pennsylvania there’s a super old law stating it’s illegal to have oral sex, and one that says it’s illegal to sleep in a bathtub
Fun fact: many people know that the word orange existed first as the fruit, and then the color was named after it. However, the word orange has existed in Europe since before orange fruits were brought to Europe from India. By etymological coincidence, a region in France came to be known as “the Principality of Orange” over 100 years before the first oranges were brought to Europe. The Prince of Orange married into the Dutch royal family, so the Dutch had an association with orange before it was even a color.
fun fact: in norwegian, in certain dialects, a small and simple conversation can be had without the use of any consonants, only vowels. (a very situational one, but it is possible.)
That’s cool…

Fun fact: The roman emperor Caligula was widely considered to be mad, once forcing an entire legion to do nothing but collect seashells after a defeat, and is said to have made his favorite horse, Incitatus, a consul. It’s also said he once had an entire section of the audience at an arena tossed in with the wild beasts during intermission because he was bored
I’m actively serving and can confirm doing inane activites after training is still a commonly practiced tradition.
And knowing a bit about history, I can also tell you that making Incitatus a senator was supposed to be an insult to the senate. “You’re so bad at your jobs my fucking horse could do it”
If I recall, he had abandoned an attack on Britannia right at the shores of now France, impromptu declaring war on Neptune himself and having his men stab at the water.
Rick Riordan still doesn’t fail me
Most modern historians actually doubt these stories due to the biases and inconsistencies of the writers. Also, he PLANNED to make his horse a consul, but never fully did.
