Speech Gud In Class (feat. TheOdd1sOut) 

That mantis shrimp speech was oddly inspiring.

For freshman year in high school I wrote an essay about how anything can be a sandwich and I got an A on that project.

that... was actually a good speech...

It's weird having James animated in different art style

That mantis shrimp speech was weirdly powerful and inspiring

1. My friend says that he does not like The Sea Rabbit 2. He got ran over by a car 3. I lost my drivers license

Me when I saw James drawn in a different art style: Impossible.

The downside to this surgery is it is extremely difficuly and *most likely expensive* *laughs in canadian*

That mantis shrimp speech made me cry

This (feat. TheOdd1sOut) thing is becoming a meme..

I’m convinced. Split my brain in 2.

Theory: Robby from victorious has alien hand syndrome

How to be a RU-vid animator Step 1-Don't draw in people in color, or with clothes Step 2-Spell school S K O O L Step 3-Get a cameo from James to up the views

my school; teacher: CAN YOU ENGLISH kids: WE CAN ENGLISH teacher : OKAY CLASS DISMISSED

Some of you may notice that James (TheOdd1sOut) talks about that same thing in this video as he does in hes most recent video. Just to clarify, he gave me the audio for this video a LONG time ago, so technically he's plagiarizing against himself. Way to go James.

"Thanks for helping James" *violent screaming

Honestly this is so close to lawyering! you just have to keep talking until everyone gets confused, detached, lost, excluded and they just end up agreeing because they forget what was going on in the first place! an amazing way to derive from the topic, sound smarter because everyone else feels dumb, and if you drag it out long enough peope get tired and slugish making it seem like you made a actual point even tho it was just senseless speaking you stood strongly and made an argument enough. nice. ~ (gonna go take a nap:)

So mantis shrimps are basically on an acid trip all the time?

my best friend is like Alien Hand Syndrome. *Always by my side *random *makes me feel better knowing I'm not the crazy one.

When James said “hey!” I thought he was going to say “Hey! Vsause!”

If you really want to bring in the views put "ft. TheOdd1sOut" in the title

The mantis shrimp *IS* my new favorite animal

*put ft theodd1sout in the title* *instantly gets 2m views*

I love how James' story was basically word-for-word what was in his public speaking video

well, the mantis shrimp 110% convinced me. good job.

'IT IS BRIGHT IT IS DARK AND IT IS BEAUTIFUL." -Thomas 2k16

that mantis speech moved me. subbed

I ALREADY KNOW LIKE 75% OF THIS, and mantis shrimp are pretty wizard

The mantis shrimp is my new favourite animal. It used to be banana flies.

the guy i like is named thomas oh my

"It IS the kiwi bird" is what my friend would say

One of the best speeches I have ever heard. You should win a prize for that. Beautiful!!!!

alien hand syndrone sometimes chokes the holder in their sleep... just saying.

Who else loves Mantis Shrimps now?

I wrote the mantis one down. If y'all need it, here it is. The mantis shrimp, perhaps the most fearsome creature pound-for pound in the world. It is by far the best living thing on earth. Have you ever seen a creature that can flick its arm so quickly that water around it boils? The mantis shrimp can. Have you ever seen a creature that if it were human sized could throw a baseball into orbit? The mantis shrimp could. Have you ever seen a creature so stunningly beautiful that if it were to fly it would be mistaken for a rainbow? The mantis shrimp would. As humans we see some pretty awesome colors right? We got those blues, purples, reds and greens. Well prepare your minds to be blown. Every color the human eye can see is derived from three primary colors. The mantis shrimp can see sixteen primary colors. We humans might see a rainbow, but a mantis sees a cosmic explosion of vibrant hues unbeknownst to the human senses. Some people might be sceptical of our claim. They might look at the mantis shrimp and ask: “Why should that be the best creature that ever lived?” Well, I encourage them to look at the mantis shrimp and instead ask: “Why shouldn’t that be the best animal that ever lived?” Finally, we would like to leave you with a quote from a knowledgeable and trustworthy internet website: “The mantis shrimp is my new favourite animal because in the presence of such light and beauty it embraces darkness. It extols death with the luminescent brilliance of a dying star. It is Genghis Khan bathed in sherbet ice cream. The mantis shrimp is the harbinger of blood-soaked rainbows. It is bright, it is dark and it is beautiful.”

2nd speech is speechy I *almost* cried ALMOST

I think the best creature that ever lived is the axolotl.

My math teacher showed us a comic of a mantis shrimp in a tank with a lottle boy watching it. The mantis shrimp said "oh, hello small human" then smashed the glass and jumped at the boys face yelling "123death!!!!" This was on thw first day, so you can imagine who was my favorite teacher from then on.(hint it him)

1.1M views ... seems like his idea work good job

"-writing -petting puppers -*preparation of sacrifice to Lucifer* -cooking"

I dont want my hand to kill me...

Mom:why are your grades bad ummmmm um my alien hand lol

i did a purrswasive speach on why you should stop being human, and become a cat

It definitely would be interesting to have an arm that is completely void of human control, and yes, I also agree that the mantis shrimp is an amazing creature.

FAK YASS! A NEW VIDEO! I waited 87 years for a new video, why are you so lazy? _god I love your channel_

Humans have three color receptors, red, blue, and green, not yellow. Research it.

I wrote an essay about Mantis Shrimps in 5th grade and used the same comic as a source... ...ar wee hav saem brane

8:34 -"It is bright, it is dark, it is beautiful" me: Heyyeyaaeyaaaeyaeyaa!!! And I say HEY! whats going ooooon!!!

I love how he makes something that is completely bad become the best thing ever and provide direct facts that make logical sense!

What about a mantis shrimp with alien hand syndrome?

“It is bright, it is dark, and it is beautiful” I died 😂

THE MANTIS SHRIMP HAS HOLO EYEBALLS

Did you kidnap James for this video??? XD

I googled "alien arm syndrome" because I had no idea if you made it up or if it was a real thing. Turns out to be a real thing. Weird.

You spelled it wrong it’s not skool It’s skol get it right people Edit: I know this is literally a year later but there are so many peeps are getting r/whooshed or however it’s spelled smh my head

The shrimp speech moved me. I am a new person.

8:50 sounds like James found the sprinkles again!😂😂😂 Edit: that scream should definitely be a meme

Who else clapped when both of the speeches were done??

I am an Australian sooooooo. Can we Put this shrimp on the BBQ.

99% of people wont read this But the 1% how have you are the best people ever

How did you do any of this with a straight face?

Cutting the right and left brains will also lead to another disorder called split brained.

OMG YES THE FRIKIN MANTIS SHRIMP IS THE BEAT ANIMAL IN THE WORLD.

this is probably my most rewatched video, I am currently doing my french project on mantis shrimp. Thank you for introducing me to this beautiful creature

Ok James that was great Hopefully this will give me more views *cough

The explanation on how the Mantis Shrimp is the best animal sounds so dramatic with da music.

You're good at convincing people, I'm banging my head against the wall so i can get a alien hand!

The speech about the mantis shrimp... it was jaw dropping!

I've been convinced! This video not only made me subscribe to this channel, but now the Mantis Shrimp is in my top 5 favorite animals. Also, I adore how you used sincere persuasion and interesting facts. Is it true that they can see 16 primary colors?! This video shall now be loved and remembered forever! I can now tell that you and your public speaking are magnificent! I hope that this comment changed your life in a way or two! I also hope that you and James have long lives!

I can't tell if you talk really slow or if James talks really fast

I remember when I was getting promoted from elementary towards middle school I had to represent my classroom and give a speech it was my first time in front of a huge audience and I got nervous midway and choked I turned to my principal and he nodded signaling that's everything is ok and I continued my speech then in the end I got a standing applause

“Aren’t mental disorders bad and you don’t want to have them?” Edgy teens: “I want them all”

ayy thanks when my teacher asks me to do a project on animals ill do it about the best animal in the world!!! :D

“Preparation of sacrifices to Lucifer”😂😂😂

I need a back to school necklace, someone tie it for me

YAY HE SAID KIWI BIRD!!! (I loves it when awesome you tubers reference my little country) Which is New Zealand (just in case ya didn’t know)

Who saw the first story from James himself?

One time I made a speech talking about carving knives being used as homemade plastic. Surgery

Unique novel structures... *pictures weird tower of books*

The mantis shrimp can make bubbles that are hotter than the surface of the sun, and when they pop it's louder than a gunshot

who came here from James?

Oh god if u had an alien hand if u were chopping something u could maybe stab someone ._. wow 😳

James I am disregarding your advice and copying the mantis Shrimp speech word for word for class 🙃

I listened to the second speech, and when it was over, i just sat there and thought to myself: that was the most perfect choice of music you could possibly put in that video. Great speech Sea Rabbit, Great speech. *clap clap clap clap clap*

lmao james held hostage XD

Mantis shrimp for president

I'm colorblind though. I feel left out now. :(

2:29 did anyone else think of swearing Tourette’s
