survival. 

if you're stuck in the wilderness just walk up to the biggest toughest looking bear and kiss him right on the lips

"Fuck you, get Nord" is the most convincing sales pitch ever.

The fear in IH's voice when he says "holy fuck," makes me believe that this man would take a life if it meant his identity would remain safe

Imagine internet historian at a con and hes just surround by dozens of people chanting "lightwood laminate"

i love how the episode on survival is 50% how to deal with awkward social situations lol

You're in prison and the roughest toughest bad boy comes up to you and says; "AYE, YOU THE INTERNET HISTORIAN!?!"

I love sumitos method of answering hypotheticals is to just throw the problem back into Historian 10x stronger

Internet Historian: "They have to kinda manufacture stupidity into the scenario of a zombie apocalypse otherwise nothing would happen." Also Historian: Barricades the house, goes to the second floor and *_kicks the ladder down_* instead of pulling it up.

I just hope that Sumito goes to vidcon and walks up to random people saying:"Whats Up Internet historian" loud enough so nearby people overhear him.

The fact that we still don't know Internet Historian's identity proves that NordVPN is very effective

I can't stop laughing at Sumito's 180 flip of that jewellery thief situation

I love how none of these deal with the wilderness, yet both IH and Sumito are stranded in the middle of the desert with a projector and no water

I heard from a Indian that the holding of hands is taught to them as kids to prevent kidnapping since it's so prevalent in their country, and it just kinda sticks with you for life

What I learned from this video, is that in the fight for survival in any situation, you must: 1. Cry _2. Cry deeply_ *3. Cry more, inconsolably so*

It seems like Internet Historian and Sumito make 9.5/10 standalone content, but whenever they work together it just straight goes to 19/10. This is entertainment at its very finest. Keep at it guys, these monologues are pure gold.

As IH fans, if anyone tries to blab his identity at some con or whatever, I think its our jobs to just come up behind the person, put them in a headlock like a secret service agent then whisk them away. All while crying, of course.

I don’t think IH has ever broken character as hard as that airplane bit

I love that Sumito can play ball with basically any bullshit conversation and just roll with it.

If we're ever at Vidcon and someone tries to say, "oh look, it's Internet Historian!" we need to do a Spartacus moment where we all go "I'm Internet Historian!"

"He's such a selfish lover, I can't stand it" had me in tears. Feckin' hilarious!

Gonna be hearing that Tokyo Ghoul opening every time my dog gets rejected by other dogs.

I love that you can hear the genuine fear in Internet Historian's voice at the thought of being accidently revealed at Vidcon.

Honestly Sumito could call someone Internet Historian and they could sound just like him but if he doesn’t look like Hide the Pain Harold I wouldn’t actually believe it to be him.

"I work here I'm allowed to jump over the counter" is a mindset I've adopted at my job and honestly it's made working slightly more tolerable.

"you must learn to survive if you want to survive" that's really deep, man. it's only friday

Scenario: IH and Sumito start a podcast but like ironically. The plot twist is it's great and everybody loves it.

I am deeply grateful for this extensive guide on how to survive not only life-or-death situations, but also the true danger: social situations.

I've never played DnD, but I would kill to play a game with Internet Historian as the dungeon master.

I wonder if IH doesn't actually bring in any money for Nord VPN, but whoever is at Nord is just so entertained by the story and production value that they keep sinking money into sponsoring him so they can see what comes next.

I love how historian cracks himself up with his jokes even before he's uttered a word.

Right now I am in tears thinking of the image of a guy on a plane pointing out what may or may not be shit on his pants, being offered water to clean it up, accepting it, saying "thanks," and just pouring the bottle out over his crotch and laughing like a maniac while the plane passes into a cloud and lightning is lighting up the sky outside the window.

That woman is watching this video right now, and just realizing that she met the ever elusive Internet Historian.

This channel has just devolved into Internet Historian and Sumito playing custom DnD campaigns at this point

Internet Historian and Sumito have such an enjoyable chemistry to watch... probably my favorite duo

I love how NordVPN continues to sponsor you despite the absolute madness of the ads. I can appreciate a company with a sense of humor.

5:45 "the water hit your balls and you were like, wait second"

I've never heard Internet Historian emote as much as he was describing a stranger cleaning chocolate off of his pants by pouring water on his crotch

So what we learned is this: 1. Herstorian has giant anime milkers 2. You guys need to make gameshows cause that's lit AF

I like how internet historian's model looks more and more demented as the series goes on

TwitchCon survival tip: - If there's a ballpit or foamcube pit... DO *NOT* APPROACH. TURN AND RUN

I love how they both seem to be getting crazier and crazier each time.

The agony in Historian's voice just THINKING about being outed at VidCon... We must protect this man.

Sumito & Intorian's dynamic is one of my favorite things, because they're both funny on their own, but their style of comedy pairs up perfectly so they also play off each other's bits perfectly and spend most of any ITF just making each other laugh every other line. IH's style is a lot slower and long winded but Sumito just cracks one-liners constantly, he's always on the ball and knows exactly how to catch you off guard. Great stuff.

16:06 fun fact I learned in highschool: when you are panicked, like in a life or death situation, the frontal lobe, the part of the brain that is responsible for logical thought, is essentially shut down while you are panicked, which is why some people just stand still when they see a car barreling towards them

When IH is talking about his chocolate pants its sounds like a third funny story, a third “what the hell is wrong with me” and a third guilty confession to someone. And i love it.

I don’t know why, but hearing Internet Historian lose his shit retelling his plane story made my day. Just hearing his calm voice just turn into laughter was amazing.

The actor zombie thing was a thing in London. It was an event where you'd pay to basically run through the streets of London to avoid zombies. It helps that London already looks post-apocalyptic.

I've actually seen a homeless person near my house that was wearing a T-shirt as pants with his two legs through the arm holes and the neck hole for his personal business. He must have already watched this video.- Survival.

That airplane story made me fucking burst out laughing and tearing up at the scene. I just love the sentence "To prevent it from looking like I shit the front of my pants, I poured water all over it." it's the perfect example of automode on a human.

The jewelry heist is even worse. He pulled it out to come in. The door is a push from that side. Him yanking on handles in was just him seeing the handles and forgetting while freaking out to escape. So if he had just pushed he probably would have been fine

9:28 that’s not a zombie apocalypse. That’s Nord.

These all feel like a Kings Quest or text adventure thing. “You’ve just shit yourself.” “I break dance” “I start crying inconsolably.”

The thing is, I don't think the door was even locked on the would-be thief, he came in and you can see the door hits a stop, he fucking pulled when he should have pushed.

These videos are just an elaborate podcast at this point. I came in expecting survival and all I got were piss stories and gameshow ideas. 10/10

16:43 "i lost mine horse riding" 💀💀💀

15:00 I actually discovered this while visiting a UK campus. Not just 2 young men but sometimes 4-wide. A series of complaints broke out about them walking down sidewalks hand-in-hand so that they therefore blocked all others who'd have to walk around them. Upon investigation the students, all new arrivals, all abroad for the first time in their lives, they explained this was normal in their home country and it seems to be rooted in a very popular 'combat sport' where teams play 'break the line' against each other. The great champions hold hands and another opposing line of hand-holders tries to crash through them and whoever breaks grip loses points etc. Culturally, this is a 'strongman' thing. This is young men being 'sporty' and 'athletic' looking. At some point, a Pakistani professor was called upon to try and explain to them how and why, in British culture, you cannot use the pavement to have 'grip battles' and the campus culture doesn't have this kind of mentality and thinking etc. No joke, for real, about a year later the Uni created a league for this sport.. whatever it's called i dunno.. 'hand holding battle'. Anyway, as far as I can sort it out - that's where that comes from and why its a cool 'tough young dude' thing for them to hold hands and walk around in public like that.

I love how Internet historian looks like he has been out in the wild but not for like a long ass time more like a weekend camping in a RV

Herstorian is a strong and independent woman that needs no Historian.

The chocolate story is some real greentext material

"Can I be the top?" Lmfao this guy.

Historian, hearing that aeroplane choc-crotch story made me realise my embarrassing moments weren't so bad. Thank you for your sacrifice, now the rest of us can rest easy.

why is everyone surviving and not prospering? *”all this and more”*

His airplane story is exactly why you should ALWAYS keep a change of clothes in your carry-on.

I can 200% feel the passive aggressiveness of the IH's editor against them through the entire video, and I love it.

The fact that we actually haven't seen Historian's identity makes me believe he can actually blend into the crowd when someone shouts out " Is that Internet Historian " whenever they see sumito being with someone in public XD

If I were at a con and heard someone shouting about IH, a "very convincing" attempt at an American accent, then suddenly some dude just full sprints past me, I'd probably piss myself laughing. On the plus side, it might make a nice distraction for his escape.

"You must learn to survive if you want to survive" I think I'll start using that.

The Nord storyline is more of a crossover than anything in the MCU

I love how "In the Field" are just really heavily edited podcasts

you’re in a jewelry store, and the biggest, toughest elevator drops a chocolate bar below your carry on bag and says “Aye, are you pyrocinical?”

I love how Internet Historian's voice goes from Barry White to Tiny Tim in two seconds when he's laughing.

4:05 the tension is palpable

Fun fact: The Stasi actually used the "let's move a persons stuff around while they are not at home" tactic to make the people they were suspicious of think that they were going insane and to induce mental breakdowns.

How to spot the Internet Historian at a convention: He's accompanied by a woman with giant anime milkers

"How to survive on an airplane going down" 1: You're sitting on a plane. 2: There's a female passenger next to you. ... ... 498: And now you're mightily embarrassed about the fact that your have a pair of wet chocolate smeared jeans, and feeling extremely uncomfortable, stupid and helpless while sitting in the mess that you've created.

That bit about the chocolate on the airplane hits 110% home. Like, the part about laughing in an awkward situation but other ppl just looking at you like you're crazy-nuts because there's no way that they could know what is so funny

The gaslighting tv show idea is actually a really good concept. I would definitely watch it if the contestant's reactions are genuine.

"Hmm I wonder why Internet Historian doesn't want to show his face" *hears the plane candy bar story* "Aaaah ok he's that kind of person"

Easily the best one yet, you’re doing something truly special here with this format of video. I hope you know that

These guys literally, actually incepted ideas into my dreams. Because of them, I had a dream I was at a Con with some girl who wouldn’t stop crying unconsolably.

That "wait, what?" at 13:36 made me lost it. The moment IH noticed he was outplayed.

Gameshow: 12 gay men in a house have to figure out who is secretly straight. If the straight doesn't get voted out he gets $1m. Twist: All 12 are straight and told they are the one straight man

As much as I love the main channel, I gotta admit... I am having a blast with these uploads

There actually was an English reality type show that was set in a zombie apocalypse where it was set in a mall and they had to go out and collect supplies whilst not getting bit, it was pretty cool lol

I'm loving the haggard look. Really adds a whole new dimension to "hide the pain, Harold".

Internet Historian needs to start a podcast, the chemistry he has with people like Sumito and Ordinary Things is brilliant.

Internet Historian is, truly, Incognito. I can understand his reaction being to just run away, the spotlight would be fucking immense.

Flying over Chicago a few years ago while there was a lightning storm. That was the most powerful shit I have ever witnessed. Absolutely stunning displays of lightning.

I would actually like to see internet historian and Sumito play D and D

IH amusing himself with a "Finger in the Hand Hole" joke is the most innocent thing i needed for the rest of the year

2:00 "He's such a selfish lover, I can't stand it!" 🤣 I keep coming back to this, just to rewatch that one bit.

Saying he would jump as the plane was crashing made me laugh so hard because I imagine him jumping then flying to the front of the plane at 700mph and becoming a pulp. Science is funy

I love how hard he consistently and unsuccessfully tries to lose that NordVPN sponsorship

Wasn't expecting a new one so soon, but it is welcomed.

The wait for that "Field" kills me

16:20 you know, a game show around this (maybe with the survivors using nerf guns) would actually be pretty cool

Did you know that the average survivalist swallows eight bears in their sleep over the course of a year?

IH: **Having an existential crisis** Sumito: "Yeah...? Yeah... So there's these weird cargo shorts..."

I’m such a plane nerd… I can only imagine what it must be like to fly through a big storm as well! I love flying just to watch the planes and landscape, the weather too would be awesome.

Those reality shows will be great for a new dimensional cable
