Top 10 TERRIFYING Facts You Were Never Taught In School 

I have never heard “tissue, tissue” before, I’ve always heard “ashes, ashes.”

"Ring around the rosy"? As a kid I only heard the song lyrics being "ring around the rosey, a pocket full of posey, ashes ashes we all fall down." Kind of interesting. I'd be willing to bet yours is the original. 🤣

Didn’t Edison not even invent the lightbulb? He basically stole it and claimed it as his invention.

I heard of those German experiments before I was out of elementary school. Then started learning history and they really do leave out a lot

my grandma was in a Japanese concentration camp in WW2, and the sheer stories she's telling my sister and I now we're adults and old enough to know are horrific! some of the prisoners resorted to eating the frogs that lived in the area as they weren't fed well at all (they were very lucky if they got a bowl of rice and some veggies or a little meat per day or a small peice of bread. they once went hungry for 2 days as someone had complained about the bread being stale!) with the result that the local population of frogs nearly went exinct! a lot of the other stories my grandma has told us are too horrific to repeat here!

I learned the Tomas Edison elephant thing on an episode of Bob's Burgers.

What Edison did to that poor elephant goes to show that smart people don’t necessarily have any common sense. Thanks for the show. I always enjoy them

The christopher columbus one legit made my jaw drop...

Edison was a flake. He basically put his name on Tesla's inventions and the never paid him for all the work. Also, Edison Had a n obsession with the paranormal paranormal.

I miss Rebeca since she has been gone - like 3 or more yrs now. Heroin use to be called 'The Gold Cure" in the late 1800s' use a lot for treatment to help with body pain and addiction withdrawal.

Anyone else notice that they were ok-ed to say "heroin" earlier but "opium" is off the table...😂😂😂

I believed the ring around the Rosie story too(that it had to do with the plague), I only recently discovered that that story has been widely determined to be a myth.

They'll say "aww Topsy" at my autopsy. That song from Bob's Burgers is how I first learned about poor Topsy the elephant.

A tissue? I've never heard that before in my life, only "ashes, ashes"

Fun fact about Thomas Edison... outside of trying to prove alternating current was dangerous, he was using direct current to try to disprove Nicola Tesla wrong. 😂

The history books are altered sooo much i dont think we actully know true history

My Grandpa had been a Park Ranger. I traveled with him a lot. He even got me a pet Racoon we called, "Bandit." The summer I turned 10 years old and my cousin turned 14, he brought us and Grandma out to one place he had to make sure stayed safe even though there were 2 Guards there. It was both beautiful yet a thing of nightmares. There was a little rock pathway across a river, a very high and thick wall made with rocks, and from a little driveway that had metal gates was a building of rocks. Quite a large one. My Grandpa brought us into the building and the interior still was broken into tiny rooms but metal and some still had tiny straw beds, pails and what looked like thin metal troughs. The floor was dirt. Only one tiny window in the whole building which was where Grandpa showed us the bullet holes and dried blood. Lots of both. We were horrified. The he brought us out to look at the rock walls from the inside. It was covered with bullet holes, blood stains, a huge square fire pit and 2 small cannons. Then our Grandpa showed and told us what it was all about. It was a Camp supposedly used to keep the Japanese safe. He told us it was more a Jail nobody would find. It was horrible. I had nightmares about it for quite a long time. The Cold in Northern Manitoba Canada would have made them feel like they were in Hell. The Cold War was still going on as well. My Grandpa told us that more of those Japanese people lived than they would have had they not been kept there. Still, all the bloody holes in the walls and outdoor Wall makes me question if they had been better or worse off in those conditions.....💔🤔🇨🇦

Times change people don't . Our children will hear the horrible truths of our time, and on it goes😢

All these fun facts are very interesting to and I love the content it brings to the platform great videos and don’t ever stop doing your ting

Majority of the nursery rhymes are super dark

As of a few years ago, thankfully america finally changed “Columbus day” and strted calling it *”INDIGENOUS PEOPLE DAY*” bcuz I’ve always thought my whole 24 years of life that native Americans are the true founders of the USA and it always made me mad when people say Columbus was bcuz historically that’s not even remotely true🙏🏻💯

Ring around the Rosie- people praying around the rosary not to get sick. Pocket full of posies- they kept poses (flowers) in their pockets for the smell because the lesions smelled horrible. Ashes ashes- they burned all the infected. Fall down- 😵

I’ve heard about the “Ring around the Roses” theory, but it’s highly debated and doubtful because the more professionals who look into are putting in the group of “songs” twisted to suit someone’s point, some points are easily dismissed/disproved but others like the “Ring around the Roses” are harder because it gets so ingrained into so many people’s minds that it’s hard to get through to everyone

How we survived to get this far still amazes me..

The mosquitoes were released in, “Georgia, Florida and Savannah?” Savannah is in Georgia.

Ive never heard your version of ring arounf the rosey😂 a tissue, a tissue😂 It goes " Ring around the roseies Pocket full of posyes Ashes, Ashes We all fall down...."

I believe it's, "ashes ashes we all fall down", lol.... Hell they didn't have tissues, yet... Let alone toilet paper.

The black death, they didn't speak about all the cats they killed prior to the outbreak. Rats and mice were rampant.

You talked about how Nazis tested on twins. Twins was not their only subjects tested. The question here is do doctors use what their Nazis results on today subjects. Meaning there was a lot of cruel killing after days weeks and months that those monsters tested whatever they wanted to do to their prisoners. Causing so much pain, so would you pass on the recorded results to today's teaching?

I’m 67 here’s how I remember this song. “Ring around the Rosie’s, pocket full of posies. Ashes, Ashes, we all fall down🎶 I did find out later how the song came about. 😢

to the neanderthal ancestor part: it is known that many 'cavemen' placed food and personal belongings next to their dead, inside a cave before literally shutting the 'doorway' with a big stone.. which was thought of as a way of kinda saying goodbye... may you be well fed on your journey to the afterlife... so maybe those ancient neanderthals were the ones who started that sort of tradition ... "burial" ... many old cultures believed that the afterlife - or the netherworlds were inside the mountains, underneath us and in the rivers running beneath said mountains.. : norse mythology has nine rivers - one leading straight to hell... and a big dog guarding a stairwell in the land of the giants... greek and roman has the river styx and a giant threeheaded hound ;) egypt has the nile which was said to be coming from the underworld and its god Khnum or also romanised Khnemu, was one of the earliest-known Egyptian deities aka Seth or Sethi, the jackal god of the underworld, and his guardian anubis, khnum was originally the god of the source of the Nile and thought to be a mere benign aspect of Seth himself... the egyptians burried their pharaohs inside a structure which looks a lot like a mountain, because they were seen as living gods, protected by Sobek the crocodile god of the passing ;) ... even the mayan and aztec believed the underworld was inside a mountain, and a great maelstroem - aka Xhibalba! the two god twins had to traverse it in order to obtain immortality.. (aztec) just like heracles had to go into the river styx before he could be accepted among the gods again.. (along with 11 other tasks - also known as the 12 tasks of hercules)

those walking sleeping bags look amazing xD I want one

I do wonder why we weren't taught these facts in school?? You can't cherry pick historical events. I want to learn about them all.

My mom was born in China and my Grandma is from Mongolia so I’ve been aware of some of these horrendous facts.

2:14 when i was in elementary school we always said "ashes ashes" instead of "tissue" the song ended up getting banned until it was changed to tissue we were only taught why in fifth grade and we were told that ashes were talking about the ashes of a dead persons body being burned during the black plauge , turns out that most ikely it was not actually about that and i got scared as a kid for no reason. [ this was about 7 years ago]

Actually ring around the rosey is "ashes ashes we all fall down". From burning the bodies.

Imagine how many addicts suffered.

Thank you guys for your most interesting facts. I love how each of you present them in a quick and concise manner maximizes your production value. Every one of your presenters are most professional in their delivery. I hated the non-ending "jokes" of the pre-historic man segment, I fast forwarded-just so I did not have to hear another one. (Guy: Don't believe that people who laugh at your jokes when you're telling them to them in front of them-really think you're funny. You're not!)

All of these “ plagues “ have been man made

You sing the nursery rhymes @2:07 way different than we do in America 🤣 we say it with “ashes ashes we all fall down”

I grew up with a different version of ring around the Rosie. Ring around the Rosie pocket full of Posey, ashes ashes, we all fall down.❤ that’s a Version I grew up at

@1:40 I think the lyrics are the UK's version of ring around the Rosie have different lyric than the USA. We sang "Ring around the Rosie, a pocket full of posies, ASHES ASHES we all fall down: I was told the Ashes Ashes represented the burning of the dead bodies because they ran out of room to bury people, so the has mass cremations to stop the threat of plague spreading, Dark huh?

That was also my first time hearing ring around the Rosie that version. The one I was taught was ring around the Rosie pocket full of posies ashes ashes, we all fall down.

It's actually ring around the rosy pocket full if posers, ashes ashes we all fall down....rung around the roses meaning the rash they got, pocket full of poses to battle the smell of the body, and ashes ashes we all fall down referring to burning the bodies to prevent the spread

WHY do I always think about these ancient folks and wonder…WHAT THE HELL DID THEY DO AFTER A POOP? 💩 🤔

Wow that really blew my mind about those dogs. I can't believe somebody did that to those poor dogs. I'm so upset I doubt I'll even sleep tonight. Could you imagine going to sleep then waking up and having somebody else coming up out of your back? It's horrible! And I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't even put them to sleep.

Love your earring! We're did you get them?

Ring around the rosies pockets full of posies ashes ashes we all fall down..... Dammit

The 1977 "WOW" isn't a mystery. It was me entering the world 😂

Is there some kind of regional difference between the nursery rhyme? I always heard it as ring around the rosie pocket full of posies ashes ashes we all fall down. I even covered it in my Black Death project in school

Some people can be the worst! All those atrocities and deaths are sickening! It's still happening today, which makes it even worse somehow. To ALL those evil, sadistic people...I can only hope you're suffering in hell! (Just sending those thoughts out there lol) To ALL the victims, I hope you're at peace. ♥😢

I loved playing ring around the rosie when I was little. But then again I had no clue it was about the black death. Yeesh

and I thought I wore dangly earrings lol. re ring o roses... atishoo was for the sneezing, I don't know where ashes come from, although I have heard that.

The segment on my housemates was very educational.

How can children take heroin in the name of medicine and still live without dying immediately, please I need some vitae answers, who will help me out.

Where did you hear A tissue ,a tissue? I always heard it as: Ring around the roses ,A pocket full of posies ,ASHES ,ashes ,we all fall down. I never heard A tissue in there at all.

Well I've always heard it as "Ring around the Rosie, pocket full of posies, ashes ashes we all fall down!!" Never heard it the other way before 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Missed her I’m back to watching because of her💯🥺

I like what you young, talented people are doing here.👍🏾

The mosquito test is back.

Both are acceptable. The Rosie's were the rashes and high fevers. Atishoo or achoo , I always heard was sneezes and not tissues. posies were to help mask the odors of the pustules. Ashes were creamations. Turning people into ashes.

YAY YOU ARE BACK

@18:09 AMONGUS!! The original AMONG US!!! hahaha😂😂

Anyone else confused by the ring around the rosey song bc I know it wasn't sung like that lol

Very interesting video.

I was taught “Ring around the Rosie’s, pocket full of posies, ashes, ashes, we all fall down”. Instead of ashes the Host sings “achu”, mimicking a cough. Has anyone else heard their version before?

Glad to see you back Taylor.

I totally remember the sprayon hair for men commercials! lmao😛😁

if the stains didn't come out of their clothes, they just said piss on it.

I thought it was ring around the Rosie pocket full of posies ashes ashes we all fall down... I've never heard it sang the way she did before. And I was taught in 1st grade that it was about the black plague...

I could listen to Olivia speak all day great video

Morphine does suppress coughing .

We now know where Kons burial site is for about 1 year now and it's so easy to get to,it's under the brush and under the water From the divered river and covered in mud from the back and forth of the horses running over the burial site just like she said in the video 🎉😮

I read a book on the R*pe of Nanking and the atrocities done were unspeakable

I am assuming that the 'Ring around the roses' version you were singing must have been sang in Europe (which I guess since technically thats were it all went down, your not wrong) - but here in America The part where your singing 'a tissue a tissue' - we were taught 'a pocket full of posies, ASHES - ASHES, we all fall down' referring to how the bodies were burned to try to stop teh spread of that horrific desiese. Seeing it in text - I think our version is much worse with that little edit. Just thought I'd share. Love our guys' videos - been watching for about 10 years. By FAR one of tyhe best channels on RU-vid! We miss your videos and your absolutly wonderfully, silky smooth accent! MORE VIDOES!!! ;p Have a wonderful day!

Maybe I was lucky. But I was taught some of this in school. Maybe I just had a cool history teacher.

Thomas Edison was instrumental in the development of the electric chair

Ive seen the hugo boss part during history class tho ahaha

Ring around the rosie a pocket full of posies ashes ashes we all fall down. 😂

All the narrators are great but the first guy from Canada was absolutely hilarious. BTW the ring around the rosey song. Tissues weren't invented until 1924. Lol.

I heard about the black death it was so good to learn

America we sing ashes ashes, kinda a bit more morbid than a tissue

I dig the earings !

Well i guess now we know where amogus came from Walking sleeping bags

I did learn about the Nazi twin experiments. I was obsessed with the horrors one group of people could do to another.

anyone else confused where she heard that song i was taught ring around the rosie pocket full of posie ashes ashes we all fall down and its based on the fact that when kids had the plague theyd die and bodies were burnt

#6 spot maybe you could add in there that because of this "accidental" exposure to the radiation, the government would pay the people, and descendants of those exposed, a monthly allowance as an apology to the marshallese. And because of this, i think till today a lot of the marshallese people are exempt from a few things. One of them I know is having credit. One of my friends she is marshallese (Kirara), and she would get that monthly payment and would talk about it, she would talk about the people there when she was a little girl. Her and her husband would talk about the monthly "apology allowance", the "not having to have good credit "for anything really. That doesn't make up for the pain and suffering these people endured. But it surely helps. I must add though that I didn't ask her if this allowance is given to all those of marshallese descent or just some of them, because there are many outlying islands that also got affect too. So i'm not sure about all of them. I surely hope they also get the help too.

Hey! The Walking Tent. Remember the Snuggle❓😂

i always sang it as, ring around the roses pocket full of poses ashes ashes we all fall down

I have never heard that version...we said ring around the Rosie and we said ashes ashes we all fall down. Which makes so much sense now. Lol. Who decided that it was okay to let children sing a song about dying lol 😂

Just so you know it's not tissue tissue we all fall down it's ashes ashes we all fall down because when someone caught the plague they had to burn the body.

Cant wait to provide my child histories actual truth and tell them to tell their teachers that they are lying to other children on these things

Fun fact: Chimpanzees also hunt other animals and eat meat. So the Australopithecus Africanus may well have eaten meat, even if they were also the prey of larger animals.

that’s the new princeton hospital which is located in plainsboro the original was knocked down ab ten years ago and was in princeton close to the uni

I always sang it “ring around the rose, pockets full of poses. Ashes, ashes we all fall down!l

Scientist research sometimes doesn't follow ethical rules to gather their precious data results of scenarios or SECRET HIDDEN EXPERIMENTS ON A NIAVE PUBLIC...🥺
