When you slow down the earth's rotation every minute 

So, to explain the end. The reason the lack rotation didn't result in two-face when it was really long was because the orbit was still changing where the sun hit. That's also why around 320 was the most extreme, it was the closest to 365, one year. You'd need one rotation per revolution to become twoface. Also known as being tidally locked. And the snowball at the end was because increasing the orbital period also moved the earth farther from the sun. You can see in all that mess around the sun that mars and everything is much closer, and the next planet outward from earth is saturn after he increases the orbital period.

0:48 I have read a _lot_ of case reports in medical journals, mostly out of curiosity, and one of the biggest takeaways for me is that humans are, in fact, simultaneously terrifyingly fragile and astoundingly resilient. The things that have killed people are just as surprising as the things people have survived.

Challenge idea: graystillplays has the ability to cheat, but so does the board. The further he gets into the board, the more the board cheats to try and stop him from winning. There's plenty of checkpoints when he starts, but if he cheats, checkpoints get removed from the board.

4:22 It does. If the earth stopped spinning there would be wind over the speed of sound across most of the earth.

I feel like Universe Sandbox 2 is Grays way of taking revenge upon us for everything we do to him/FloridaMan in GTA as well as Nixon & Tom Hardy Jr in HAPPYWHEELS

Alright, so we're checking out the only RU-vidr who can still make these jokes and not get taken down, it's GrayStillPlays.

I’m sure Gray actually knows the difference between life likelihood and “total population of humans remaining” but it makes me laugh

humans on earth: 'GET READY GRAY IS MAKING A UNIVERSE SANDBOX VIDEO' gray: 'PAINNNN!"

graystillpays + insanity + immense agony = enjoyable content

5:15 They died due to overwork, and now they have to work for 28-30 hours a day

*As a Batman fan, I love how Gray renamed the earth to ‘Two-Face’ because it was half light and half dark.*

I remember there being a whole documentary going over the what-if scenario of the Earth's Rotation speed slowly decreasing over time, all complete with visuals, experts, and actors going through the simulated scenario. It was one of my curiosity-piqued videos on RU-vid in the early days, and now I'm wondering if I can even find it again.

Loving that we're getting so many universe sandbox vids. Its what originally got me hooked on the channel.

The temperature dropping because the Earth is getting more distant from the Sun. As the rotational speed decreases, the centripetal forces are weaker, leading to larger distance in the orbit of Earth.

Make Pluto into a giant gas giant bigger than the solar system by using meteors to make it gain mass

If you stop the rotation of the Earth, you want have to raise the temperature. If Earth stops rotating, everything not nailed down, will fly eastward at 800 mph. A very had day will take place.

If you set it to 365 days it turns into a eyeball

One of these days your gonna break universe sandbox so bad that your computer will fold in itself and collapse into a black hole🤣🤣🤣

I don‘t know why but in Universe Sandbox when you wait a while the Earth cools off.

Everytime I see a new video from gray I think of destruction and chaos

Wow. Even after all these years, Grey really does still play. Bro passed the fraud check 👍

Gray I dare you to hit two mountain lions with an rpg while you're on the spinny portion of a windmill

If the earth stopped spinning, i will just go to mars

Gray:scorches the earth…survives, freezes the earth, survives, throws asteroids at the earth, survives, creates wild weather, survives….makes the days longer….everyone dies. Yep, that’s gaming logic.

This is realistic too. Millions of years ago (dare I say billions), each day on Earth lasted only 6 hours. And that number gradually increased because Earth started spinning slower and slower. And it's still slowing down, though mankind will be long extinct by the time we realize this is actively happening.

Petition to bring back adding more zeroes.

“Lets see if the average amount of people are dead they are” -gray

I thought this was going to be regular torture, but *Alex's torture from gta finally kicked in and gray said this beauty! THANK YOU ALEX!!!! **0:01** THIS MAY SEEM LIKE A SIMPLE CONCEPT, WHERE MAKING DAYS LONGER MAKES PEOPLES LIFESPAN SHORTER!!!!!!! ! ! ! ! ! This is just intensifying the pain gray induces to himself anyway in other games now, beauteous as I like to say lmao XD 💀💀💀*

When are we going to get Minecraft & Sims episodes back Reginald & Spleens must be feeling lonely

Part of me wants one of these where it starts out as the regular video of slowly increasing/decreasing the mass/speed/temperature and then just abruptly fixing it back to normal to see how it effects things.

gray make mars 100% livable

You know it’s going to be chaos when gray posts

1:11 the rotational period isn't exactly 1/day initially because Earth needs 23 hours and 56 minutes to complete a rotation around itself, rather than exactly 24 hours. That is also the reason why every fourth year has an additional day.

There is only one youtuber that kills madness its GrayStillPlays!

My day gets better every time i see you uploaded a video

I'm just imagining a bunch of scientists making an announcement on the news something along the lines of "Unfortunately, we appear to be in a GrayStillPlays video. Good luck to you all. "

Gray I want you to make a quasi star by using the sphere rings and a black hole and planets…

There was a Nova/NatGeo documentary on this. It was in their catastrophe what if series, it was called "Aftermath: When the Earth Stops Spinning". The rotation period slows gradually to match the orbital period, so that like Mercury, 1 day = 1 year, with the northern hemisphere's day being at Perihelion [Nothhern hemisphere summer] and the southern hemisphere's day at aphelion [NH winter] for the harshest effect of 6 months of daylight on the most people.

So happy universe sandbox is here with modern grey :)

The sun be like around the universe

I heard something about the rotation of the Earth being very important for heat because of the molten core in a science article many years ago. Its extremely hot down there and as you slow down the Earth's rotation, so does the core and its heat. But eventually, when it gets too slow, the side facing the sun is simply cooked by the sun. Also it looks like it maybe moved a bit farther from the sun for some reason even though you didn't change the orbit? Weird... By the way, peak GreyStillPlays content is still definitely the My Summer Car series, but its good to see Universe Sandbox back 👍

All life would become nomadic, and follow the more habitable edges of the sun.

Episode 182 of saying: Can we be honest: watching Gray break a broken game like Hello Neighbor would be HILARIOUS

Greece is aching to implement the 89 day work week

.997 is correct for the base rotation, it is why we have a leap year. The actualy lenght of day is 4 minutes less than 24 hours (24*60)-4 = 1436 minutes. 1436/24 = 59.833333333333333/60 = .997222222222222222

I love how Gray just casually fixes leap years in the first 2 minutes of the video lol

WOOO I LOVE UNIVERSE SANDBOX VIDS FROM YOU

Finally back with Universe sandbox, i remember a year ago almost i was sad by the fact ive watched all of your US2 videos, and that you wont make more

*Day 158 of asking... Challenge for Gray: Try and complete a challenge with no checkpoints that take 9 hours to complete. The twist is that the board disappears after you touch it, and in order to reset it, you need to restart the board (before anyone complains... Yes, there will be parts of the board where Gray can have a break, and yes, there will be a teleporter at the end, where Gray has 2 chances to get the correct road path correct (Which won't despawn) if he fails at getting the correct path correct then he just need to restart the map. AND... yes, it is possible, and what I mean by two hours is that no matter what difficult board he plays, would probably take 2 hours, but Zach just edits out most of it, so it's suitable for a short yet entertaining clip) Yes, there will be a 10 second timer before the board slowly disappears and there will be parts of the board that won't disappear and there will be a script at the end where it teleports Gray to the beginning and resets the board, and there'll be 3 teleporters, he'll have to guess correctly, one crashes his game, one forces his game to force restart, and the final teleporter gets him the win. (Just kidding, all teleporters are guaranteed to get him the win, there will be a text saying there's one teleporter that works)*

I just love the cosmic madness that Gray unleashes every time in universe sandbox

Gray's science is psychotic to say the least. you are crazy and I love it!

Amazing vid bro🎉🎉

Yes! Another USB2 video! Loved these back in the day (2-4) years ago. Gray literally broke game and made earth engulf the whole galaxy 😂

GTA myth:grey simply cannot skydive into a jacoosi. Idk how to spell it.

Yessss gray is back TOOOOOOOOOOOOO universe sandbox

Amazing vid! I love watching your vids with my brother every day.

Awesome! I haven't watched your vids in a while but glad I finally got a notification. Idk why they're being weird but we are SO BACK. 🎉

I love these. It's super hard to keep up with the stats😅

People in Alaska just can't tell the difference though lmfao

Satan would be proud.

Life likelihood isn't a measure of how many humans are still around. Don't forget there are extremophile microbes and countless things in the deep ocean that can handle surface effects for a long time. The universe isn't about human life and neither is this game.

379 days later, only gray and his followers have survived. Video/day 379 asking for a 100% everything is a windmill course in GTA

Kind man restores the ice caps

This is actually going to be really useful for me, I look forward to the result. (I have a but of world building I'm doing, and the world gas a similar conundrum)

Gray+mobile games/bottle flip=the content i love 😂

All hail classic Gray!!!

I love it when the earth is like my food half hot and half agony

Probably the coolest Universe Sandbox experiment so far

Has anyone else had the existential crisis of thinking that, assuming God (A one true creator of all things) could be like Gray.. and we're only still around because he's just got too many tabs open in his interdimensional laptop but one day he'll remember to come back and Universe Sandbox us all straight to oblivion like this??

Yay space stuff :p

GRAY YOU ARE AMAZING

Bro I missed these so much

Gray you singlehandedly saved me from boredom lol

Gary is part of the Vogon Contructor Fleet. Don't let him read you any poetry.

I'm watching this at 10:38 pm in AZ and it's 104°

i almost forgot this video JUST released

The goat of illegal humor😂

UGH IT FEELS SO GOOD, to have universe sandbox back, this is what got me on gray that and happy wheels

I love your shows

waiting for the day grey realises that "life likliehood" isnt just people, but animals, plants and even the tiny amoebas

I love gray.

I like that gray has gon back to us2 instead of "gta obstacle course"

As somebody living where we have 4 months of day and 4 months of night (midnight sun and polar night), can confirm - this is what it feels like

Leave it to Gray to make a single work day last a lifetime

Greys original idea of killing humanity wasent good enough, so he placed the earth over by jupiter.

Does anyone think that graystillplays and baronvongames should collaborate?

Basically why it froze at the end was because as the poles froze, the planet deflected more sunlight, which caused the temperature to drop, which caused more ice to form, which caused more sunlight to be deflected and so on.

Now I want to see an exact opposite of this XD I wonder what it would be like if Earth was spinning at insane speeds.

GRAY PLAYING UNIVERSE SANDBOX AGAIN?!? I MUST BE DREAMING

One year per day, means the earth is tidally locked to the sun, so only one half of the earth is in total sun.

The Life Likelihood Index is LITERALLY BASED ON THE EARTH’S ROTATION SPEED. And also because humanity was sweeper off the Earth by the clouds.

life likelihood means the chance that things are still alive not the precentage of people left every video

Day 1,215 of "reminding Gray he isn't good at video games but is so masochistic he will never give up until he wins" until my comment gets pinned.

wonder if gray next one will be earth rotation going up where it's day and night so quick lol

Finally, more pain

Fun fact, Earth is slowly losing its rotational energy, meaning soon we will have 25 hours in a day.

Gray is the definition of “the soup is cold and the salad is hot”😂

I feel like near the end the reason it was so survivable was because you could stay on the edge pretty easily

Towards the end wen the rotational period was 64008 days or 1,536,192 hours... That's 175.36369863013695068493150684932 years, imagine being born during the daytime, your kid was born in the daytime and their kids were born in the daytime and its still the same day you were born💀

When Gray is not torturing himself in GTA, he is torturing THE SOULS OF THE INNOCENT
