here's to a decade

Love your stuff! Keep it coming!

Think Fact Congrats on your milestone. Of all the fact videos out there, yours are the most interesting and well put together. Not just "here's the fact, let's move on!" You actually put substance behind each one in a way anyone can understand and really become engaged in. Keep it up!

That is insane...

I've been watching every video since maybe 2016. Please make videos more often. I enjoy them.

I would like to do more, but my problem is balancing out life and this. But also making sure that I'm truly compelled to cover a topic and I'm not just doing it simply because I feel like I need to get a video out. It's a balancing act, but I would like to make more KZfaq content more regularly; it's just some videos are easier to make, and frequently the stuff I find that I have more passion over requires a lot more work. Thank you for sticking around, I really appreciate it!

Thank you very much and I am happy you liked the video. :) It's always nice to hear from you.

My guess would be different sub species of violets are probably more potent than others. But yeah, I love lilacs! Thanks for sharing!

I have 6 kinds of wild violas or violets on my property, I’ve been gardening for 40 years. As far as I know they are odourless , to humans at any rate.

Actually added it relatively last-minute, so I'm happy that it's well-received. I replaced it with a different fact that was really complicated to explain, haha. Thank you and it's always nice to hear from you!

It's kind of a funny term if you really break it down think about it.

Oh, I now see the mistake. In 2010 there was a large incident of Art theft that took place in Paris France. Picasso was among and the painters their pieces stolen. Five pieces of art were stolen, and multiple websites seem to attribute them all to Picasso, or at least indicate such through their wording. I simply took one of the paintings and put it in the video, and apparently was unlucky with the pick.

I wonder how hard it is to become a citizen? It seems like the majority of the people in the order are not citizens, obviously. Haha

What a coincidence! It's definitely an interesting story to say the least, Dow risked a lot by simply hoping they wouldn't catch on to it. I'm happy the video helped!

It's always nice to know people are still excited to see them come out! They can be a lot of work, but the response is always worth it! Thank you for the compliment, and I'm happy you liked the Dow one too! Take care!

Nikita Alekseyeva seriously though!

I do love myself a good karma story. I'm happy others liked it too. :). Thanks for the comments!

Thank you, I appreciate it! They can definitely be challenging to find, which is why it takes so long, but I am always happy with the response! Thank you for the comment and compliment!

IFTANK yeah. Unfortunately though, I've been posting more frequently but my videos don't often seem to get out to all my subscribers.

Yeah thing is hes never going to get his viewership back. To long between uploads

Good catch, thank you for letting me know.

Thank you, they're quite a bit of work but I always enjoy the response to them! And you can count on it! Thank you for the comment.

Nice to hear from you again! Hope you have been well. :)

Plus the doughnut planet was best!!

I've always been critical of the top 10 channels for being exhausting, not creative, and lazy. In more recent times, I've tried to utilize IFTANK to hopefully show that one can make actual high quality top 10 videos. Well, with a small mistake here or there. haha Thank you for the comments, and I liked the doughnut a lot too. Now we just need to think of a clever name in case we ever find one.

Thank you very much, I appreciate it!

Thank you Keith. I do not think I hav ever smelled violets so the biggest thing the fact made me think of was that. I have not heard of that before, but given the reputation they have that would make sense. Oof, good eye. I did have it right at one point. My computer shut down on me and I lost a lot of work. I have planed for it to be a Friday video but that slowed me down. Thanks

Thank you! People like you make all the work that goes into making them worth it! :)

Clever, and it could be in reference to multiple Homers through history.

How about reference to police? 😁 Like .. the fuzz, copper, bacon (I despise the term "pig" for the police), bobby, smokey (the bear), five-o, danno, the man, gumeshoe, dick (as in, Tracy), bobbies, nicker, plodder, rozz, blue bottle, po-po, gravel roadsters, o.p.p, connies, babylon, barnies, ghetto bird, bizzies, blueband, blues & twos, or blue light special (lol), 😃 blue meanies or the man in blue, cherries or cherry toppers, buckies (as in, Buck Rogers), city kitties, chips, cuntstables (lololol) 😂donut patrol 😄 narc in the park, the heat, jakes, local yokel, ossifer (when someone is drunk and can't pronounce "officer") 🤣 paddies, snut, blue lines, town clowns, woodies, vickers, slops, rozzers, plodders, nicks or nickers, leos, jams or jam butties, the filth, dibbles, bronzers ..... I'm sure there are a ton more!! There are all U.S, British or Aussie slangs 😊 Now YOU have learned a few new words/slang for police officers. You're welcome! 😉😊😎

That's actually a funny coincidence. Did the doughnut planet have a name? I feel like if we ever did really find one, we have to think up a clever name.

It's definitely a good story!

Happy to hear you enjoyed the video, thank you for the feedback!

The craziest part about it to me is the fact that they are among the only animals to have survived Antarctica splitting often freezing over. Many of the animals that once existed on Antarctica share a history with the animals on what is now Australia. But they all died off due to climate change. So these little bugs are literally among the literal last vestiges of all native life that once existed on that continent. There was actually ant life ones in Antarctica, it be interesting to know what potential sub species and species altogether developed during the cold only to still completely die off.

It was actually a last-minute substitute! So I'm really happy it's actually the most well-received fact it seems!

I miss all of you guys as well. Trying to be more consistent has been a big goal for this year!

Hahaha, I thought it might. I was wondering what peoples reactions would be like.

Try not thinking about your tongue.

I know this is over a year old but this and the tongue reply got me thinking of two things that have screwed up a few hours of my day on several occasions. So if any of you see this think about these two things, first one that is not so bad is blinking. Few times its happened and you notice it and end up constantly blinking when normally you dont realize and is a natural reaction. When you pay attention to it then it can become so annoying. Second one which is the worst one is a few times I've ended up paying attention too my breathing and when that happens its like you have too remember to breath instead of breathing automatically without thinking about it and you realize you haven't breathed for about 30 seconds and need to remember to breath in and out. That is the most annoying and horrible one out of the two.

OK, wrote my comment before I got too that part in the video. He said the same thing about breathing so yeah my bad

Hahaha, it's definitely been a while. The hard part is, it often takes a lot of time to find stuff that's really original and neat. The hardest ones are finding new space facts, they're so well-received so I try to include one in each video, but they are becoming more challenging. I'm happy this one was well received by people. Take care!

Yep, now I'm on to creating a new list. Which means I'm going to be patiently waiting for new interesting facts to show up my way. Haha

Unfortunately, it's a bit of a money issue. I need to save up money for better lighting equipment, I'll need some quality sound recording equipment, and once I have the both of those I can utilize a bigger space to fill myself in so I can use a Teleprompter. I'm being slowed down by the fact that I have been having frequent kernel panics (shutting my computer down) with my computer seemingly having a RAM issue. So I'll probably need to get another thing 16 gigabytes of RAM, which is more money. I am very careful how I spend my money, which subsequently means I have to compensate by spending more time to make videos. And do do that, it's also exhausting and it requires more brakes. Things are complicated.

Wow, that's really bizarre. I'm just realizing that. I don't know what happened there. I'm pretty sure I copy and pasted the symbols from somewhere during the conversions for something else. Maybe that website was using a letter "i" and my computer auto corrected it without even noticing. I don't know, I'll have to look into it. Good eye!

When I was animating the horse racing, all I could think about was that news wheel involving a cardboard cutout of a bear and then "showing" what the bear would have look like running through the woods. Lol

Think Fact HAHAHAHAHA! I forgot about that! It was proven fake, wasn’t it? Yeah, it was fake. Please tell me it was fake......

I have no idea, but I couldn't imagine being the camera crew during that segment. Lol

Hahaha, I just can't win with haircuts/hairstyles seems. No matter what I do somebody's distracted by it. No wonder so many educators go bald. ;P Thank you for the comment, the compliment, and maybe it will look a bit better when it grows out.

dont listen to this guy, i loved the vid

I had no problem retaining this information.

Herbert Dow definitely was a clever man. He actually lucked out a bit because the trust had so many members that some of them initially thought it was one of the members that was responsible for doubt doing well, that they were somehow in on a conspiracy. It's definitely a pretty interesting story, you should check out some of my citations if you want to learn more!

Haha, I will let people know if at some point if I find myself in a situation where I would appreciate some help. Thank you very much for the offer. :). I want to make more videos, and thinking up good topics is a must! One of these days I'll probably think up something around chess, it just has not happened quite yet. Always nice to hear from you!

Ya. Of the list, I think of stamps.
