A Rattling Good Read 

The really remarkable thing about _A Void_ is that it's a translation-from a French novel with the same restriction.

7:04 "100% plagiarization. What a clever idea." Try telling that to my teacher.

0:42 "When you now hold it over a candle flame, and warm it up, it sets on fire. Remarkable."

Speaking of books, I'm afraid Tim's wasting his voice on not narrating novels for audiobooks.

Mr. Tim, there was a book discovered in Sweden not too long ago that you might be interested in reading about. It was hinged so that it could open 6 different ways, and depending on how it was opened it contained a different story.

The "What men know about women" book reminds me of a novelty record which was completely silent it was entitled: The wit and wisdom of Ronald Reagan.

There should be more waterproof books

Tim should have a series of books on tape. He would never read the story inside the book, he'd just describe the book (the artwork, texture, weight, smell, contrast of soft cover and hard cover) for about 5 minutes.

I have Ashens '50 Thousand Shades Of Grey' It's like the sheep book but with 'Shades of grey' 50 thousand times

*100% plagiarazation* *what a clever idea*

I've got a book that's similar to the counting sheep book. It's called "Fifty-Thousand Shades of Grey", and it was written by the cheap tat/electronic tat/expired food reviewer Ashens. It's the phrase "Shades of Grey" repeated 50,000 times. Unfortunately it's out of print now, so good luck finding a copy for a decent price.

Book from the nile.

I've got a book from I think the 40's where every page is cut horizontally about 3/4 of the way down. The bottom section serves as a little vocabulary book you can reference whilst independently reading the book in the top section. Another novel novel.

Anyone read House of Leaves? Amazing, if could totally fit in Tim's collection

Such a wonderful collection, I look forward to seeing more

"100% plagiarism... what a clever idea " My teacher did not agree.

I've seen a book called Fifty Thousand Shades of Grey. The whole book is just the phrase, "shades of grey" fifty thousand times over.

I used to have a book as a child called Reflections. When you reach the end of the book, you turn it upside down and the illustrations become different, then you read the book end to beginning to finish the story

Tim should read "House of Leaves". The most mindbending work of fiction I've ever come across.

Only Tim would have a book in a book in a book in a book

4:38 That tiny book Contains Water From The NIle

The book with sheeps would be better if the sheeps were disordered... Because in such variant there are actually only three numbers that we need to count: height and width of a page in sheeps and the number of pages =)

Of course if you're interested in other novel novels, there's also the book of every color in existence: www.gizmodo.com.au/2012/09/this-book-contains-every-rgb-color-that-exists/ and the ubiquitous House of Leaves, a horror story that plays with typesetting and font and bizarre nested references and appendices to tell several strange stories (often all at once).

I want to lay down on a cloud made from his voice...

recently stumbled onto your vids and subbed, very interesting stuff! I really like how you present them too, simple, and informative. thank you!

Reupload? I swear I've seen this before...

0:19 90 Pounds for that book?

Anyone who's a fan of Perec and Queneau is ok in my book. Brilliant collection as always Tim!

I've got a disguised book. It's a proper old antique in the shape of a book all bound in old leather. Twisting the corner accesses the pouring spout to a hallmarked solid silver alcoholic hip flask shaped as a book and the book is called 'A Pleasant Surprise'. This is a proper old and expensive antique looking book and you wouldn't know what it was without picking it up, only to reveal something brilliant.

Novelty novels

that "vast" book is super rare!

another good novelty book is 50 000 shades of grey by stuart ashen

A few unusual books from Poland: "A Perfect Vacuum" by Stanisław Lem is a collection of reviews of nonexistent books. Some of reviewed works are actually impossible to write. "Imaginary Magnitude" by the same author is similar, except this time it contains forewords and prefaces. "The Gates of Paradise" by Jerzy Andrzejewski is a novel set during the Children's Crusade. It's remarcable for the fact that it contains only two sentences. While the second one is rather short, the first one is extremely long. "Alea Iacta Est" by Stanisław Dróżdż is a set of six tomes together containing all 46656 possible results of rolling six six-sided dice. It exists in a single copy and is essentially a more compact version of a installation under the same title.

Thanks for making such great videos guys, I have been feeling down recently and yet you guys never fail to bring a smile to my face. Much appreciated :)

Anyone know what the Jacob's ladder book is called?

He should get Ashens's book, "Fifty-thousand Shades of Grey"

there was a tab of LSD in the smallest book in that book safe one

What about Stuart Ashen's 50,000 Shades of Grey? That one made me giggle

waterproof books from the nile

It's not exactly plagiarism if you've correctly cited everything, is it?

Book from the Nile

I would love to see a video of music boxes, Tim has to have a billion of those.

I think the salesman with the "fan" book saw you coming Mr. Rowett.

There's a novel novel I have called Fifty-Thousand Shades of Grey. The name is an obvious parody of Fifty Shades of Grey, but the entire text of the book is only the phrase "Shades of grey." repeated fifty-thousand times.

"100 plagiarization, What a clever idea!" Wish my teacher thought the same.

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS, I WOUD BE NOTHING WITHOUT THEM

Quite the collection of NOVELties

The "plagiarized" book isn't plagiarized at all... Plagiarism is when you don't source it... He sourced the books he got the text from

Ha! That last picture of the books pouring out of the window was in Madrid a few years ago. I saw it! It's in the Palacio de Linares, which they say is haunted. Here's a photo: www.elle.es/var/ellees/storage/images/elledeco/diseno-arquitectura/piezas-de-diseno-con-libros/palacio-de-linares/4697033-1-esl-ES/palacio-de-linares_ampliacion.jpg

I once bought a book entitled "Hugh Grant's Guide to Fidelity" (published after he had his Divine encounter) and the pages were totally blank. Didn't realise that someone else had already had a similar idea.

I also had a book when I was a kid that I used to love but no longer have in my possession and can't remember the name of. It was about a bug, either a grasshopper or a cricket, and it had a cutout of him on a stand, and as you turned the pages he would pass through a hole in each one and appear on the next page. Then when you reached the end, you were supposed to take him back home by going through the book in reverse, which would put him back on the first page.

Completely unrelated. Did Tim say "gas mark 4" for the cook book?

Book from the nile

not so first

Cameraman does a great job. Very smooth filming.

I'm a writer and an artist and have done some really cool sculptures with books (mostly short stories) I wrote. Is there a PO box for this channel? I'd love send you guys a little piece I made!

Books written without "e" or any other letter aren't exactly new. Back in the 30's Ernest Wright published his novel "Gadsby", without an "e" in the text.

I am thoroughly interested by this one - I would like to get into collecting these, since I have many experimental books, but none with no letter e, or the best one I think is the rewritten story in different ways. Know of any in stores now???????????????????????🏰

Do you have any funny vinyl-records? Have seen your Toy Victrola, Record Runner and Astrology Greeting Card. Got more of this stuff?

Perhaps Tim would be interested in a book titled Fifty-Thousand Shades of Grey by Stuart Ashen (***** on RU-vid)

The "Vast" novel sounds like one of those "Writing fiction with A.I" challenges.

I've just watched this whole video and thought it was brilliant. I've just had a joint too so im stoned out of my tree. These videos are awesome but when your stoned they are even better.

They shoudve jumbled and randomized the sheep on each page so you can't cheat and multiply the number of them on one page by the number of pages there are.

so what can you put in there? a book, and what's in that book? another book, and what's in that book? My Crack. what a lovely idea.

Astonishing collection of sophisticated fruits of boredom and quirkiness. I like it!

How did "what's in the book?" miss the meme train?

This is the last video in my Autoplay before the NASA videos. Happens every time. 🤔

8:52 "Only the letter e." You mean "e" is the only *vowel* used, right?

I can't be the only one that's headed straight to Amazon...I love you, Tim.

The waterproof book was probably made of Tyvek.

Did anyone catch the name of the puzzle book at 8:00 ? The one with the mixed up story pages?

(Beginning of every video) Tim: *INHALES LOUDLY*

I can always count on tim to cheer me up

Tim is adept at cooking the books and destroying the evidence Remarkable

At 6:30 I believe that the image has hidden text when you read it from an angle. I don't know if it does, but the way it is drawn makes it look that way.

I’m pretty sure it’s a crime in England to destroy anything by Dickens

this channel is absolutely fantastic

I like the part about the books...

What's in the book... another book... what's in the book, a gun *bang... Wow.

is it really plagiarism if you cited your sources? the joke is that it’s legal as used the words of others yet still had an original story

All that men know about women book is genius... should have been best seller once upon a time.

Wouldn't that western book not be plagarization as he sites all his sources?

Who could downvote a video like this? Just unsubscribe.

03:56 Any ideas about what one could do with unsuccessful e-books?

I just had an idea of a flip-book of a flip-book of a flip-book of a flip-book of a flip-book.

Please help, I'm addicted to these videos...

I'm a FAN of that book!! Haha.... I have no friends

A recipe book you must bake first to use is called a "Cooked Book"😄

I felt distressed when he closed the yellow book and the page folded 0.o ahahaha

How about a coffee table book about coffee tables that unfolds into a coffee table?

anyone here reads Finnegan's wake? talk about a novelty book

A book in a book in a book in a book in another book. It's bookception.

100% plagiarization. *What a clever idea.*

I heard it as "E, the Communist of all the letters..." at 8:36

4:14 Tim would be great in the drug smuggling industry

Cain's Jawbone for those interested in the Who Dun it.

Finally someone made book pages that are not out of paper.

i love these longer video's

No Gadsby?! For shame Tim, shame.
