How Long Would We Have to Live if the Sun Went Out? 

Which superhero could save the Earth and human race from the doomsday scenario? 😲

This would be an interesting netflix series

*Sun goes out.* *Winter everywhere.* Schools: We'll just do the classes online.

This would make for a very interesting movie plot

Someone: I just bought the worlds most expensive sunglasses! Sun: *goes out*

*sun blacks out, world panics* My manager: you’re still coming into work right?

Sun goes out Employer: “No changes in schedule, business as usual” 😞

Imagine having the sun literally disappearing and thinking... "North Korea Killed Our Sun! We Have to Stand for Our Rights"

I always your videos but never leave comments. I love learning from you guys. I love the clear narrations. I also love the graphic style. About how long does it take to complete one video?

“This won’t happen in another 7 billion years” Me: still worries

Sun, gone. School : “its just a sun, back to class”

so this is a 10 minutes expansion of "we're all f*cked!"

The music on this video is hitting me emotionally for some reason yet I can't figure out which emotion. I want to cry but I don't know what about

7:48 The sun disappearing will cause your dad to grow an extra set of legs.

"If you or someone you know died as a result of the Sun disappearing, you may be entitled to financial compensation."

“We don't know who struck first, us or them. But we do know it was us that scorched the sky”

I got a crazy question. When the sun goes out and the planet starts getting cold, if we built thousands of giant furnaces the size of a small building all over the world could we heat the planet back up? Eventually we'd run out of coal or other fuels but I wonder if it's possible?

I can’t imagine the memes that would arise from this happening

Sun goes out My wife: I told you to repair it last Sunday.

So basically, I need to build a full on fallout shelter at least a mile underground, with a bunch of specialized equipment both to build and maintain it that I don't have, and with the right equipment and knowledge to maintain a steady supply of food, water, electricity, and some sort of artificial sunlight, plus a way to cycle oxygen so I don't suffocate. Easy peasy. I'll start tomorrow.

The cheery tone of both the art style and the narrator makes this incredibly creepy within the context of discussing the end of the world. I love it.

People when the Sun goes out: “Ayo who turned on Dark Mode?”

I'm pretty sure Canada would just be like "oh it's a slight breeze"

By it's nature, the sun can't just go out. I do remember a short story I read as a sixth grader back about 1967, where a large planet careens through the inner system and drags the earth with it. The story starts with a family of four, living inside an igloo sized shelter composed of overlapping carpets. The story is told by the son, about twelve or so. At that stage, the atmosphere has already settled out into stratified layers of "snow". The igloo has a constantly tended fire, and an airlock system based on yet more carpets with pails of nitrogen and oxygen defrosting in stages within. The son is beginning to take over some of the duties of scavenging the food available in nearby buildings (big city) but the range available to their outside suits (whatever air you leave the igloo with) is beginning to bite. The story ends with IR detection and rescue by a much larger group that has managed to keep a nuclear powerplant going. Looking back into the past, it was a good story with considerable thought put into it.

Wow this brought back memories of a book from middle school. I think it was called Life as we Knew It.

Me: well the sun wil die in 3 quatrilion years 2020: are yo challenging me?

sun goes out Vampires: Now we feast

I remember when my step brother always used to try and scare me by saying this would happen in another 10 years, its been almost 20 and the sun is still here.

Nicely done 👌👍

I lost it at “North Korea had killed the sun “

Everybody: This is the end of the world. : Dinosaurs: First time huh?

Honestly, I think I would just go ahead and die. After watching The Gray, survival in that kind of climate would be beyond dismal, it would be wretched. Many of my loved ones would likely be dead, possibly my significant other, my mother, or my sister. I don't think I could take it. I would likely just walk out into the dark cold and allow it to take me. Living wouldn't be worth much to me if I couldn't share it with my loved ones, and considering I've had a long history of clinical depression, I don't think surviving is worth suffering. In fact, I'm relatively certain of it. But that's just me, not to throw a massive wet blanket into the ring. It just seems accurate.

It’s the 4th of July today in Maine and it hardly reached 55F today. We’ve had the woodstove going since it’s pouring rain and windy 🤢

People: oh no the sun is gone Cell phone: flashlight activated

Everyone: 2020 can’t get any worse... May watching the video: *Write that down, WRITE THAT DOWN!*

This wild, I was thinking about this today.

About two weeks. It depends what plants grow there and how long they can go without photosynthesis. So, australia and other mostly baren countries/islands/continents won't go long.

This scenario would make a really interesting fictional story

I just learned more in 9 minutes 25 seconds than I did 4 years of high school 👍

I watched this video of a person who made like a 14 floor house underground. It had a garden and stuff, it was pretty cool

I love these videos there perfect for corentin

Penguins: Ah yes, it’s all coming together.

*sun goes out out* Russia: It’s a bit chilly today

You really got my attention at the "no more internet" part...

I just like how the dad of the family is always smiling lol

nations: *start nuclear war* nuclear weapons: *create massive amounts of heat* modern problems require modern solutions

We've just figured out how to stop global warming

Well, there is indoor farming methods, such as green house of hydroponics and even aquaponics for that matter. We should really give the guys making stuff like more credit cuz theoretically if the sun switches off forever we really need their technology to bring vegetables into live. MIT has a group called OpenAg their team and people contributing to it are awesome, I already thought they were dope but this video made me realise we need them a lot more in emergency situations. Same goes for all renewable energy pioneers

My fav infographics vid

Sun: Goes out Greta Thunberg: "how dare you".

The Sun: He protecc He attacc But most importantly, He not come bacc😢

Interesting concept.

1:51 the correct phrase is just 5800 kelvin. (in the kelvin scale of measurement there are no degrees)

Sun disappears: Solar engineers: why do I see 4 black men dancing next to me with a coffin?

Here’s a simple answer to everything about survival. We all die... *The End*

7:53 is buddy sitting and standing at the same time😂😂😂

Awesome channel

7:52 I think that dude has two pairs of legs .

Nobody: Me thinking these videos will actually come in useful one day

I live around an hour from the coast but I love the cold so I’d probably live a little longer than most people here. 28° F (-2° C) in a t shirt, shorts and a thin blanket on and off and I’m fine. It was night and there was strong winds. For reference: 32° F and ° C is freezing

Don't forget that active volcanos can be a good source of heat.Digging a hole into a magma pocket,stocking the magma into a large container to keep people warm etc

My Mom would still send me to School.

The sun goes out. Everybody: We are gonna dieee😭. Polar bears: 🙃

8 mins, that all we have, 8 mins. Thats the time it takes for light to travel from the sun to the earth.

I doubt it would be snowing in this scenario as there'd be no warm place on earth to evaporate water and form clouds to rain/snow.

Sun: *Windows XP Shutdown Sound*

7:50 is this man sitting and standing at the same time didn’t know the sun caused mutation too?

Elsa: Who cares about the cold, we should worry about the food only.

2:28 People watching this video 8 billion years from now: 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

Look how we’re acting with the covid 19 😂 we won’t make it 3 days.

“What would happen if the sun went out” The Beatles: NO NO NO NO NO

8:49 Underground with no electricity means blinds and heat lamps

September 2020: shout out to everybody on the West Coast who is currently experiencing this. Absolutely LOVING the disgusting orangey-grey sky, street lights at noon, and eerie, nuclear-winter-esque chill. NOT. Yuckola.

I just love how the animated people keep smiling during any kind of disaster

Short answer: we won’t last very long

I love your channel

"What if the sun went out?" Understandable, have a nice night. *Dies*

Me: Mom the sun is gone- Mom: your still going to school

The background music makes me wanna cry WHAT’S IT CALLED I MUST KNOW

Anyone know where the background music used in this video comes from? I kinda like it :)

Sun: IGHT IMMA HEAD OUT

“Vaporize the earth as it collapses and dies” that’s not worrying at all

wouldnt find people who can dig deep into earth in my country, but we sure would be ready for cold weather, cos we grew up in times when snow was here for 6 months a year, lately its like only 2months a year.

6:54 jolly dad hammering away during the apocalypse....Positive vybes

"The temperature would be -150 degrees Fahrenheit" Canadians: I don't see a problem here.

7:48 are we not gonna talk about why the father has 4 legs?

Me: watching the video 2020: that's another for apocalypse bingo

I have a feeling between artificial light, green houses, growing plants artificially and all the other technology we have, we may be all right for a little bit. Except for the orbit thing.

Not trying to be “that guy” but how is all of the snow supposed to be there if the water cycle can’t conduct without the sun?

Well we don't have to worry about global warming anymore

As it started talking about living underground I just kept thinking about the Fallout vaults

6:38 Why was that guy's nose so long until I realized it was his arm a few seconds later

Sun: imma head out Canadians: still showering in maple syrup

People who built fallout shelters that can produce food and water: WhOs CrAzY NOw????

this: *happens* solar engineers: do i hear coffin dance?

02:26 I think that time is relevant to ones perception of the intensity of gravity. Saying this, when the sun does began to swell, gravity would increase slowing the perceived time by people on earth. Meaning that as the sun dies time would pass slower for people influenced by the sun ultimately making the dying process seem eternal. So even though the sun dies at a normal rate to someone viewing beyond the suns gravity, is never experienced by someone within the sun gravity because the process effects time relativity.

"Hello darkness my old friend I have come to talk to u again..."

I recommend immediately putting out as much greenhouse gas emissions as possible to hold in the heat in our atmosphere as long as possible. Just one idea.

To everyone saying they want a movie or TV series about this, you need to watch a Netflix series called Into The Night. It's not exactly the same as this, but the plot is about energy from the sunlight suddenly killing everyone wherever it shines, and it's not even safe underground. It's not the heat, but it's energy from the sun messing with molecules in organic matter with fatal results. So survivors on an airplane have to keep flying west away from the sunlight, only briefly stopping for fuel and supplies until they can figure out what to do next to survive, as obviously you can't keep flying around forever. It's an AMAZING show and I highly recommend it.
