@@ohrats731 , their trips were from 1889 -1890. They died in the 1920s (specifically, 1922 and 1929). While it's possible it was related to the trip, you'd probably have an easier time linking old age or the 1918 flu pandemic than their trip that happened over 30 years prior.
Man...this host has totally figured out life. How amazing a job it is to get hammered with hilarious people, while getting paid for it. At most other jobs it seems frowned upon if you bring a six pack to casual Friday's...
Hey it's Rosa's girlfriend! Also, I love Nellie Bly. Her story is fascinating. Her undercover reporting also exposed a serious problem with mental health facilities. She wrote a book about it called "10 days in a mad house."
I knew it. She was also the journalist who changed mental health care by pretending to be crazy and getting institutionalized for 10 days. Drunk History also made an episode of that with a different actress.
You can tell that every actor that participates in this show has a great time. It’s just so over the top and bombastic that you can’t help having a good time
Is it strange that now I really want to race someone around the world? No airplanes, only bikes, boats trains and cars and selfies at landmarks. Who's down?
@@stopforamoment37 Currently in Holland, making my way east towards Germany, then I'll invade Russia. I'm travelling by bus with a circus of gypsies for some extra cash.
Only made it to Provo, Ut since last update. Jumped on with a band on tour. They're letting me tag along for moving their equipment. Van is tight but we are continuing east.
Elizabeth Bisland fell victim to favouritism, clearly. I knew Nellie Bly's story from the atlantic channel. LOVE HER! BTW, When are we going to get an episode of drunk history on the queen of jhansi?
Air Quotes it is it stars Natalie Wood “The Great Race”. However, unfortunately, until I saw this video, I did not know that there were two female reporters. So, maybe they should make a movie that is a little more accurate
Bly needs to be taught more in school. I think I only came across her when researching for a psych class in high school. Then sadly forgot about it. Then read a book told by Lois Lane (the series starts to dwindle in quality) but she loves Nellie Bly.
Ughh yeeees! I traveled RTW as a solo woman and have been constantly told "Women can't do that," by both genders. If girls had more role models that were doing the supposedly "impossible" stuff they could achieve so much more!!
I just stumbled upon this video, literally one day after rewatching (for the third time) The West Wing, where there is a whole episode dedicated to The First Lady flying to Pennsylvania to dedicate a statue to Nellie Bly. S2E5. I am staggered by the coincidence.
Lol… the algorithm sources similar content based on interests… and then I realised this is a year ago so you probably figured that but I just wanted to leave my mark in this forever web and find more intriguing videos!
Unfortunately traveling around the World has become a lot more dangerous. Just back in 2018 two Swedish Women were trying to hitchhike their way around the World. They got through Europe ok but then were found murdered in Morocco.
Well, you're unfortunately both in & out of luck. She's a raging lesbian (to the point where it's basically what's defined her entire life and career...) but she's also married, I believe.
I think he has said that he’s gotten really good at pretending to be drunk but still being sober so he can make sure the host stays in the right direction. Idk for sure
The beats here are similar to the way Nellie's story's told in the graphic novel AROUND THE WORLD. I wonder if that's something she read to become informed, or if they shared a source?
This lady voice acted ranger tabes in we bare bares and the actress for nelly boy played in the office. Cool to see people I know from other shows on drunk history
I wonder if Ellie Kemper was actually lipsynching out loud. Actually vocalizing to the existing track makes the synching look more natural, as opposed to just moving your lips silently. And I think that's why I felt she was less convincing than other actors on this show. (Not that I could do it, mind you...)
to me it just looked like Ellie Kemper's natural movements. She kinda has an overexaggerated thing going on. which isn't bad. I think it really works for her
