You know...when Thor wasn't able to do super hero stuff anymore, he got drunk, played games and grew a belly. This Thor instead becomes evil, finding ways to defeat super heroes and what not. With science. ...I like this Thor more.
Well he did do a video where he admits to being Thor’s younger brother, his dad comes to visit him at work lmao. I am guessing this means he is probably closer in age to Loki so he probably hung around him more lmao.
@@Sagitta62 Well 1) I wasn't alive in the 60's 2) English is not my native language 3) Are we sure it is all just beer? All kidding aside, thank you for educating me xD now I know
This brief, strongly needed, much appreciated glimpse at serious Kyle at 9:38 just settles for me that you're really a sweet combination of Carl Sagan and Mister Rogers that human beings so desperately need. Thank you for your service as a science spokesperson and for tailoring not just the warm and nice stuff about "this is all we've got", but also the serious harsh, yet elegantly put things like that answer to such unpleasant commentary. Much love, you inspire me.
The water pressure thing actually reminded me of what happened to my daughter when she was a few months old. She had a growth spurt but as sometimes happens not all her muscles grew, the ones that fell behind were her breathing muscles. This meant that she could only take a few breaths flat on her back before she lost strength and stopped breathing. Her doctor explained it by saying she wasn’t strong enough to fight gravity as she could breath perfectly fine on her stomach or propped up. I am wondering if it wasn’t just gravity but the way the pressure from your own weight and the air around you effects you when you lay down like that.
It sounds like getting caught in a fishing net would be a real threat to Aquaman's life. Imagine one day he's going around fighting against over-fishing of various regions when he tears through a bottom trawler fishing net, only for one of his feet to get tangled in the torn netting. Now, he's getting twisted and turned, flipped up and down and dragged along the sea floor and the fishing boat moves along. Maybe its not super fast, maybe it's not super forceful. But he's quickly disoriented and getting lightheaded from the lack of oxygen as he's dragged backwards and his gills struggle to breathe co-currently to the water flow. Aquaman reacts quickly, reaching to his feet to untangle himself, but too many interruptions back-to back slow him down just enough. Dragged over corral, bumped into rocks, on-and-on. He's getting lethargic, his thoughts muddy. He flips over, making one last heroic struggle to free himself. A brief moment of lucidity as his gills are properly oriented for a moment. Then, *THWAP!* A fish smacks right into his face. He blacks out for just a moment, but it was a moment too soon. He is dragged along powerlessly and passes silently. Felled by no Supervillain nor clever scheme, just a small crew of fishermen, biology, and bad luck. One day, he left home and never came back. Never heard from again. No one ever steps forward to claim the honor of defeating the mighty hero. He just, fades away.
Great video, Kyle!! So my nerdy question of the day is: Could Dr. Strange use the Time Stone to bring people back from the dead, essentially just reversing their death like how he reversed time with that scene with the apple when he first used the stone? Or is there some concrete universal laws that prevent him from doing so? If he wasn't one of the victims of the "blip" could he use the stone to reverse Thano's evil snap and bring back half of the universe? Discuss. P.S. You're not fooling us with your magazine subscription calls, you villany villain.
I learned about the limits of snorkels the hard way as a kid. My friend and I went out to catch some turtles and I brought some water hose thinking I could go down farther. Nope! I was popping up and gasping for air within seconds!
Hey Kyle, I once went on a touristy snorkel/scuba hybrid activity in Hawaii called Snuba (actually highly recommended), using surface O2 tanks w/ 20 ft or so tubes allowed untrained schmucks like myself get around certification for scuba diving and swim with the turtles (at a respectful distance of course). They pressurized the tubes so that your not breathing in--your lungs are simply pumped with air and you just go with it I guess. Is this the same way Scuba diving works?
Good ol' pressure differentials. Fun fact. Swimming to the bottom of a 10m/32.81ft deep pool would probably be painful the first time. I suppose you've got to deal with the surface area of your body in m3 by the weight of the volume of water above you. Which would probably equal a bad time. At least for your eardrums anyway
Speaking of Aquaman's lungs collapsing under pressure - he can just inhale water to fill his lungs with it and hence protect them from external pressure - he's not using them to breathe under water anyway. He'll have to do a lot of painful coughing once he is out of the water and needs to breathe air though... but that beats collapsed lungs, I guess.
Lol R.I.P Alinity's cat .Did you know Alinity, a twitch stremer, drank alcohol and then kissed her cat while still holding the alcohol in her mouth ...and then she poured the liquid into the cat's mouth? She didn't get banned somehow, even though she has directly violated twitch's policies multiple times in the past.
How powerful was He-Man from the original cartoon? If he's the most powerful man in the universe, and he's half human, he follows our laws of physics and biology. Would like to see the comparison to your Link and Mario vids. Thanks! MJ
Hey there. There seems to be a lot of physics based superhero episodes. I was wondering if you had taken a look at The Boys on Amazon Prime Video. I would like to hear your take on things
Cue lots of comments trying to "inform" you about there being three Jokers after you acknowledge that in the video and narrow it down to a specific one.
in reference to the glycolysis comment, humans already do this which allows us to hold our breath but still do activities. Unfortunately this process is anabolic and only last for on average 30 seconds to 90 seconds. Animals such as whales and other sea mammals and amphibians are already the best at this type of metabolism. But even they can only send us a long and regardless of how long they can stay under, they're not fighting off evil-doers at the same time
Unrelated... But... Kyle. Bruh... Will you ever discuss “that scene” from the first episode of The Boys? Like I know what I saw, but wut? How do we ever heal emotionally from that? So many questions!
I'm sure that comment wasn't the first to objectify Kyle - especially where the commenter tries to demean his intelligence without even watching the video - but I'm glad he called it out. Such shallow comments really come from the basest instincts available to any primate and should be beneath the intelligence - social or otherwise - of most. Also, if you need to demean someone's intelligence, objectify them, AND not even hear them out (or at least are incapable of understanding their science-y explanation) you're revealing yourself to be quite the ignoramus.
@@zombiegroan3985 Thanks! That's now my headcannon. Kyle's mom is a very prolific assassin with access to orbital strike satellites and such and other cartoony, physics defying equipment and no one can't convince me otherwise.
Patho Rossainz I imagine she is just baking some cookies when she gets the call. Turns the dial on the stove top burner and a computer pops out. She enters her passwords, screen loads with a picture of 2 identical baby Thor’s. She loads evilthororibatalstrike.exe. Thor’s mom “Love you my baby boo” Evil Thor “Yeah, love you too”
jab 1435 if you're talking about underwater then I think flash will be faster than the fastest fish but not faster than aquaman. Because flash is a human but aquaman isn't...not sure if that makes sense...
Clearly ... not evil ... 1. that laugh 2. does not do the work himself, but does give creative orders. 3. gives a clear end at the phone call instead of hanging up.
I love this series so much! I'm shooting for vague nerd points here, but Arkham Asylum: a Serious House on a Serious Earth by Grant Morrison talks about Joker's insanity a lot. It says that he's not insane, but 'Supersane' and can't filter the sensory information he receives on a daily basis. This causes him to invent his own personality every day. That blew my mind when I was like, 18.
Unfortunately, awareness is not the same as sanity, and being in a condition where sensory overload or anything else is causing irrational behavior would definitely not be sane. "Supersane" would be more akin to Vulcan logic or similar tropes in science fiction (or the Kwisatz Haderach from the Dune series if you're coupling it with increased awareness), and would basically mean deterministic behavior. From what I can glean, the story was really just making an excuse to give the Joker awareness of the reader as well.
@@Merennulli It was linked to chaos having a pattern that we can't see, but that he can. Maybe he knows some fundamental truth about the universe that we'll never know? Grant Morrison called it an evolutionary adaptation to the 21st century. All bollocks as far as the science goes but I thought it was cool :)
when the music started playing I thought someone in the office had accidentally started to play classical music without headphones and took mine off to see where is was coming from. unexpected actions yield unexpected results and I feel silly
as long as we use Political Leftists for the fuel..... they aren't worth much but it'd get rid of em at the least at there are more than a few too many of em. XD
@@samarnadra oh u mean those mothers who are risking their childrens lives for the sake of having something ro complain about? Yeah definetly fuel worthy
Kyle I have an idea for a video. What is the closest thing we can say is like the lantern core's rings. You could talk about how certain emotions can cause certain things plus it'd be cool to see if there's anything out there that can be universally used to create things.
Considering the current most accepted theory on bird evolution, in which modern birds are the descendants of the surviving avian dinosaurs, it is 100% For added flavor, a specific cologen protein was found in t. rex fossils that only appears in modern chickens today. Therefore, the question shouldn't be how much dinosaur is in a chicken nugget, it should be how much tyrannosaurus rex is in a chicken nugget.
If you could hypnotize Aquaman, wouldn't it be easier to hypnotize him while he's on land? Hypnotize him to believe he's just a regular Joe and then try drowning him like you would a human. Would that work?
First of all although I'm not above "objectifying" other people, I must confess I have never looked at your butt. I have never looked at Jason Momoa's either. Now to the crux, I understood that nurse sharks in particular would lie actually just above the ocean floor in places like tide pools in reefs where the current crossing their gills would have a stronger effect. I have seen them do this many years ago while we "snorkeled" and walked (wearing tennis shoes) on Devil's Reef at Ft. Sherman in Panama. This does not actually contradict anything you said, but perhaps adds a bit more information. Enjoying this video, as always. Thank-you.
If the whole figuring out how to kill supers thing makes someone a super villain, why the fuzz is Batman still part of the Justice League? Guy has a plan to take down everyone. Excited to see the Joker video.
The Imaginary Axis has already a video on the mental condition of the Joker which is in my opinion very entertaining. Long story short.......Joker is a psychopath of course, but not insane. He is more likely (maybe) kind of super-sane which means that he knows that he is a comic villain which explains all the "as long as there is batman there will be a Joker"-talk. In one comic martian manhunter (don't know how to spell his name correctly) sees into Jokers mind and describes it as a raging storm which he can't really understand. Another time Joker fell into this "revive everyone"-pit which is also used in the Arrow series. It revives people but most of the time make them go insane sooner or later.......on Joker it had the effect to make him sane......one could argue minus and minus is plus but it kind of is more likely that this pit takes away a good load of sanity so it makes sane people insane but super-sane people just sane, which is exactly what happened to Joker. Furthermore at the end of another comic Joker has kind of an interview with a doc in Arkham and talks to other people, but there are only two persons in the room. When the doc asks him to whom he is speaking to, he replies with "he is talking to his fans" (or something like this). The doc tells him that these Persons are only in his head which he answeres with "are they? or are we just in their head?" At the end of this scene, when he is left alone in the room he talks to himself (and the audience) asking if they are really just in his head and aren't real.......an then he turns around shouting directly into "the camera" through which we see the scene, if it was a movie, "you aren't real, are you?" breaking the fourth wall like Deadpool does all the time. Well.......this was not as short as I hoped......but seriously......check out that video. It is really great in my opinion.
Certified diver here: not by any means a correction, just an addendum. The longest snorkels I've encountered have about an 8 foot hose and float independent of the snorkeler. They typically have a series of one way valves and water escapes to prevent drowning and inability to draw breath. You could consider classic dive suit style diving to be pressurized snorkeling though. I highly recommend not refreshing your memory of the Mythbusters episode where the drop the pressure from one of those. Love the show, keep up the good work educating the masses.
Question: Deku (My Hero Academia) has been shown to flick his finger with a force enough to break boulders, but the impact breaks his finger. Since he is able to generate that force, would his finger not break merely by 'powering up' the flick, as he is asserting those massive forces against his finger and thumb? His finger can handle those forces but snap as they come into contact with rock (which must be more brittle than his finger or thumb)
Are you Ryan Reynold's son? You capture the exact same comedic tone. I'd watch a movie with the two of you playing that dynamic any day. And a movie you made yourself too. Brilliant content man, so creative! And clever and witty and intelligent and hilarious and Looney and unexpected. Well done bro.
I was looking at the thumbnail image for this video through blurry sleepy eyes and I legit thought it was Chris Hemsworth and I'm thinking aquaman isn't even the same brand as Thor what does he have to do with defeating aquaman? Then my eyes adjusted and I realized it wasn't Hemsworth at all
So will the next episode discuss the science of the mutation of the Nuclear Tests at Bikini Atol create Bikini Bottom and the talking sea creatures we know and love?
I'm pretty sure this is a joke, but there is a big difference between "majestically gorgeous" and calling positive or negative attention to specific attributes. Typically people respond favorably to being told they are beautiful/handsome and negatively to being told they have a nice butt.
I freaking love science and Kyle's vidoes. But I love Jason too. 😍😋 I think he's just a stand up dude. Also, his fan base will flat out murder you if you try to harm that precious cinnamon roll. We all know this.
