The boots NOT made for walking 

I'm so glad they decided to upload this question's video, because the reactions are amazing.

Alright, can someone gifify her reaction, please? :D

I must have replayed that like a dozen times, such an amazing reaction

@@dcltdw Hear, hear! It'll go viral REAL fast!

It reminds me a bit of "2001": Bowman's reaction when the star gate journey ends and he arrives in that hotel room!

Like annie herself

Someone should make a GIF of it RIGHT NOW (only if Tom and Annie give permission, of course).

Me too! When she said Pixar my mind went there immediately.

Me too!

I certainly have one of those that's still vivid in my mind after _mblmn_ decades.

That's it! I knew it was wallpaper paste, but my brain got stuck on 'Loctite', which is kind-of the same _shape_ as Solvite, but I knew that wasn't it.

Tangents is a SciShow podcast lol

Please help me, because I still don’t understand the answer… who are those “army men”?

​@@KasabianFan44 the tiny green army men from toy story. Their plastic toy form has a solid base for their poses, so obviously the toys wouldn't be able to articulate the feet moving and would have to shuffle around with said board nailed to their "shoes", so Pixar did just that for the animation but writ large to get the idea as to how one would move with such limitations

i also thought of him when i heard the word 'archivist' lol

4:50 After the boarding thing was dismissed, and we're told he was videoed scrambling around the office. I went to an anti-diarrhea/vomiting ad following the lines of "when the runs hit you, getting on time to the loo is more of a struggle than you think; be safe, use our products". Either that, or part of an accessibility campaign for workplaces along the lines of "place yourself in their shoes for a minute; mobility is more difficult than you think". Especially true in case of emergencies and evacuations.

Results: miss. Clever thing he did. I wouldn't have made the 1992 Toy Story connection.

The wall paper paste was solvite I believe.

@@TheM0JEC yep, dangling from a helicopter

@@Andrew_Fernie there were a few, the helicopter was one of the most recent I believe.

Interestingly, in the late 80s early 90s we used to make something we called a "go board" or "walk board" by taking a thick plank about the size of a skateboard, nailing in two ca 2" by 4" blocks of wood on the underside and nailing in two leather straps on the top where we could shove our shoes in and "walk" around on it like that. I'm not sure if it was a common thing around the world, or if it was just a Norwegian thing (because skateboards were banned from 1978 to 1989 for some weird reason) or if it was just lokal thing that some of my friends invented. It might have been just one of the "least effort" thing we could make in wood working class; that we kept making just because then we would look busy; or it might have had some real purpose. I suppose it might originally have been a home made skateboard substitute, meant to be able to practice skateboard jumps and tricks without access to a real skateboard. Maybe the straps either was a misunderstanding by my friends of how it was supposed to work, or it was a substitute for grip tape since our woodworking teacher probably would get angry if we used all the sandpaper to glue onto some wooden boards.

now i'm trying to figure out how i'd say the answer without giving it away to others.

Can it be both?

Glad to see I wasn’t the only one to immediately go to the Criminal lean stage shoes.

You can see some of it in behind the scenes material for Toy Story.

Unless Tom is some kind of fact powered time traveler 🤔

I think he also did it further back, maybe 1972? I seem to recall one time he was up there he referenced the last time he'd been up there.
