How to Rebuild the World From Scratch 

Yeah Dr. Stone is one of the best

Me too. I'm planning to start from scratch.

I came here after watching it😂

If that's the case, I'd recommend "How to Invent Everything: the survival guide for the Stranded Time Traveler", by Ryan North.

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw the title

What about a meat pie?

If you are thinking you will be moving out of a city you should have already made relationships with people that live the the rural area where you want to live. Ideally you should already be living there in a rural area outside of the city where you work. There isn't much empty wilderness left in the world, and if you try going there after civilization falls you are certain to run into people that aren't going to be very welcoming to a stranger wanting to come and share their precious resources. With or without an established place to go it would be essential to bring existing survival skills and resources with you. It is best to do your research and work on your social skills in advance not to wait until after civilization fails.

A maths textbook, a science textbook, and a dictionary (without which the other two are worthless).

Arithmetic textbook, civil engineering textbook, and a famous work of literature (to preserve culture, philosophy and history) that has important teachings

His book is a pretty good source of basic information. For a deeper approach, I'd recommend "How to Invent Everything: the Survival Guide for the Stranded Time Traveler", by Ryan North.

Primitive Technology shows how to replicate an entire primitive village on a new planet that is identical to Earth.

Punch a tree with your bare hands and make a crafting table with 4 blocks of oak planks

Depends on the teacher.

If you can't do.... Teach!

Living proof of why books like his are so vital. ;)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_concrete

Don't get into the habit of thinking the ancients had it all figured out. They didn't. No more than you or I. Our current cement and concrete is what we need it to be. Part of what makes roman cement so "great" is that the things we see still standing, was made of the best stuff available; this leads to issues such as choke-points in the supply line. The more important the structure, the more likely they will get their demand; especially when it's the Emperor himself demanding it. So yes, roman cement was great, because a few structures are still standing. woooh A secondary issue with our cement being "poor" is that we stuff steel into it, so that it can bear more load, and be more flexible. The problem with this, is steel rusts, and blows out bits of concrete. Roman concrete structures don't have rebar or I-beams, thus needing to be thicker at the lower levels to bear the load of the upper levels. As opposed to our concrete structures which are comparatively thin. So let's break this down. Can you get amazing concrete today? Yes! But you won't get it in a bag at the local DIY store. You have to hire a highly specialized concrete crew who knows what it is you want, they will order the necessary ingredients and mix it to exacting specifications, and pour it for you in a timely fashion. Peasants like you and me, will never get to use this stuff, just as roman peasants never got to make houses with "roman concrete", which would be better classified as "Roman Emperor's Concrete. And just for shits and giggles. Roman cement had nothing on Egyptian pyramids. Give me enough rock, and I'll make the world last forever.

Millennium is too much

Seth Weeda indeed

Didn't he stay with sympathizers?

point, not only that, but liquid gasses that need electricity to keep them cool enough to stay in liquid form will fail to be kept cool and start to boil

I think it's fairly doubtful that anyone graduates from college illiterate. Even getting into college after High School these days is pretty difficult in the United States, and while my STEM major friends read quantitatively less than I do as a lowly Liberal Arts student, they still have to have high reading comprehension to understand the language of even basic STEM textbooks. The only people I don't really know about are those Business majors... (that's a joke, I'm sure their classes are hard too, haha...)

Rip it costs money and I’m a poor high schooler interested in the topic.

Don't make negative judgement. Ends with a negative judgement.

8years later your apocalypse is coming😂

I like to make my toast in a pan. It comes out much more evenly. So all yo than in the best toaster. All you really need is a hot surface. The ideal design is something like a Tandoori oven. Absolutely delicious flatbreads. Also... thousands of years old, most likely. Not all progress makes things better.

That is not true. I ate cans, when I was in the army in 2003, from 1970.

@christopher snedeker Lathes are used to shape metal as well. You use one to make screws, nuts and bolts.

And most of those will be otherwise lovely, law abiding people who are simply pushed to the brink. Does your neighbor _really_ need _two_ cans of peaches when your baby is starving?

We got lucky with Covid-19. If it had had a higher mortality rate and other deadly characteristics, we would have had a much harder time surviving...... However even in that scenario, I think humanity will survive even though a lot of people will die. One point that I found interesting was the fact that the skillset required to do basic survivalist activities like hunting, making a fire, etc. are very important too. The scariest part was when he mentioned the next generation of humans who would be radically different from us since they would experience a weird world in which many are hoping to create an almost fictitious future (which supposedly existed in the past). Their train of though may be intrinsically different.

@@devenford2322 mmmm, much better covid than the closely related MERS which iirc had a mortality rate of around 30%. It's one of the reasons S. Korea was as well equipped to handle it as they were. I agree with your sentiments that humanity will survive, even if so done in the face of massive loss of life. The last statements I'd like some elaboration upon though.

Actually, the world may have a couple year's worth of grains in storage. It's not all that bad.

YES AN ANIME FAN. Did you come searching for the same topic too?

@@popopop984 hehe I did.

This comment convinced me to really start watching it

@@mipmip4575 Hehe let me know what you think ;)

@@MrDarksaife Only watched 2 episodes, but already frickin love this show. Thanks for the recommendation :)

Lathe, it's a machine that rotates an object while you are working on it.

ah ok, thanks

The "Foxfire" books was the first thing I thought of too.

The guy has limited time and is speaking of his project. 🤦‍♂️

Can _you_ tell us about such work?

@@HansDunkelberg1 The Foxfire books and the Backwoods living magazines...

It's just you 🤦‍♂️

Do you mean the climate will be so because of a nuclear winter?

In the event of a collapse, I wonder if we'll see a role reversal between the Colonizer and the Colonized.

You might also need a dimension-hopping sofa or two. :)

Wars will break out when we start to run out of towels.

TheDajamster Nah, it's cool they'll just start stitching their towels out of leaves and carry on.

hello from 2022, we're still here and still watching this video, the world didnt colapse but humanity could have handled it so much better

Hello from march 2022,we have a war in Europe which could lead to possible nuclear war,if things don't calm down soon

Without gasoline powered airplanes, zeppelins may make a comeback. Seriously. No need to resort to pony expressing things when we know the secrets of manned flight

Lift.

that´s what i was thinking through the large parts of the talk. that´s good in principle but useless in practice. a bit like saying computers are made of sand now go and build one.

I think it still has a use, as it still serves the purpose of giving you a general direction for further investigation, but you'd need companion books for basically every trade, skill, and to guarantee continuity of knowledge. These books would have to be written in a way that assumed no knowledge and no teacher to assist. Combined, they'd be a library by themselves.

As mentioned there are already many books that deal with practical survival information. This is more general and aimed at how to restart civilization not already well covered survival skills.

An unfair comment, considering that the entire first chapter of his book deals with that exact issue. You make it sound as if he didn't address that fact.

Hopefully a new society would not go down that backward route of creating magic beings and dogma that holds back the progress of humanity 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

The whole point of this thought experiment is to avoid another dark ages 😉😅

Great! If your prayers work, would you ask him to not allow the devastation in the First place.

Because we are psychos lol look at the news headlines and tell me we have a stable society
