You know, you never actually stop clapping, you only increase the intervals between claps.

3:49 That quiet space should be rebranded as a panic room for introverts. I’d buy one.

"It's so quiet, people become focused on the sound of their own heartbeat" Oh, yeah. That's when the real adventure starts :D

The thoughts that run through our head is fascinating.

Here's some "shower thoughts": Why aren't apartments called togetherments? If a deaf person needs to go to court, is it still called a hearing? What happens when you are scared half to death twice? Why do we say we have a fear of falling, when it is what stops the fall we should fear? If a package reads "opens here" at the grocery store, shouldn't it be "opens there" since we never open it in the store? If the Energizer Bunny gets arrested, is it charged with batteries? Have you ever stopped to think... and forgot how to start? Does poison become more or less poisonous when it expires? Are satanist in Autralia christians when they turn the crusifix upside down? If you call it makeup, why don't you call the removal of it "breakdown"?

I don't like where my mind takes me if and when I go knee deep to my shower thoughts. It's all fun and well till I start asking existential question... More of your content "say less" That's all I'm here for

The knocking one got me. Made me imagine a baby throwing a tantrum and a grown up banging on a door. Same thing, same objective.

How do you not have more subscribers? Your video's are so entertaining.

I believe I've read a study somewhere that suggested somewhere around 1800 was the number of words in English you need to know to be able to efficiently infer the meaning of new words from their context.

We have way more than five senses, they just mostly lump together with the 'main' five. My favourite to describe to people being proprioception, the sense we use to tell where our body is at all times. The best way to test this is to close your eyes and extend your arm out to your side with your index finger also extended. Now, whilst only bending your elbow, touch the tip of your nose with the tip of your finger without opening your eyes. You should be able to do this every single time, this is proprioception at work. Fun Fact: Out of all the senses we do have, we don't actually have receptors to specifically tell if something is wet (hygroreceptors). A good example of this is when you feel clothing that has been drying and can't tell if it's still damp or just cold.

Just finished : Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree. On the surface it's a chill fantasy story . But in reality it's a love letter to coffee.

Crazy thing I learned recently is some people don’t have an inner monologue. They don’t “hear” their voice in their head when they think.

Smile and love of knowledge is contagious

TL;DR Thoughts on learning a new language from my personal perspective. Danish guy here. About language... In Denmark we're taught English from a very early age. That means even if learning a language is not your skill, the +90 percentile of the Danish population can confidently communicate with foreigners of equal or higher levels. We learn it early enough to make English a natural part of our identity, but at the same time we learn it late enough to make us conscious about the learning process itself. Knowing English from this perspective teaches you a few key pieces of information: ▪ that most of the English nouns pertaining to family, parts of the house, structures, etc - tangible things that are visually observable - are words of mostly Danish/Nordic descent. ▪ that the basic structure of English comes from the Germanic languages. ▪ that pretty much the remaining words in English stems from the Romance languages. So... consciously knowing all these words of Romance descent makes it relatively easy for me to recognise or guess what they are French, Italian, Spanish or Latin, though French being the most difficult because, well... French! My point is; knowing or being able to guess all these words (mainly nouns and adjectives), I still have no clue whatsoever how to string together a meaningful sentence in any of these languages because I have no knowledge of these languages' prepositions. Prepositions are the single most important word class to master if you wanna learn any language! The remaining word classes, syntax and grammer will come automatically once you actively start speaking and writing said language. Sorry for the long read!

We have many more senses than the five prime. Time, space, balance, direction, weight, mass just to name a few.

Your videos are good I always enjoy watching.

I once said on reddit something like "Pain is just the brain running a system diagnostics test, and finding issues."

In the 1940’s they made a series of films starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce as Holmes and Watson. They were often loosely based on the stories of A.C.D. Most were rewritten to take place in the 40’s. He even thwarted the nazis in “the voice of terror” They were so good and I always caught them on the late late movie after my parents went to bed. Anyway, most of them are free viewing on KZfaq. Worth a watch on a rainy day.

Your End thoughts are really interesting !

Your last "shower thought" reminded me of an hilarious Chris Moltisanti's scene from the Sopranos: "They say there's no two people on Earth exactly the same. No two faces. No two sets of fingerprints. But do they know that for sure?". Also there are a few movies about this concept, one that I particularly liked was Villeneuve's "Enemy"

My grandmother lived in an old peoples home. Everyone there had a comfy chair where they spent most of the day. I wondered about the journey of that chair before it became THE chair for her. Has MY chair been made yet? How long before I sit in it? Who sits in it now? Makes you think mmm…

That was cool. Also, I love your smile. =)

What you said about korea is true I've heard that before as well

Thanks

I like Agatha Christie's Miss Marple series the best out of her characters. And I like the Miss Marple movies with Margaret Rutherford playing the title character. Just seemed like the perfect actress for the role. As for Holmes, I certainly enjoy the books at lot! My favorite movie actor portraying him was Basil Rathbone... Both those actors' movies were black and white, which I think kind of enhanced the mood.... Never got into Poirot...

Here's a shower thought: "Shower thoughts" is just V-Sauce, Michael style videos - but with a calm and serene delivery instead of a mad scientist character staring manically at you while delivering random facts.. and sometimes asking where your fingers are.

Hello there, I was watching your video and you mentioned you like Conan-Doyles Sherlock Holmes and Agatha Christies Poirot. There is another author who writes detective stories that goes by the name of Arthur Upfield (Arthur W. Upfield.) He was born in England on the 1st of September 1890, the same month and year as Agatha Christie was born. While Christie published her first book in 1920, Upfield started writing a serialised novel in an Australian magazine in 1926. Upfield’s most notable character is Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte, a half cast Austrlian Aborigine. There are 29 novels in the series and i love them all. They are authentic in portraying how people thought and spoke in Australia at that time.

When yall realize that the Letter "A" looks like the tip of a sharpened pencil

I remember seeing a video of someone telling about showing their childhood pictures to their wife, from when they were in disneyland, and she saw herself in the background of the picture, with her own family. I wonder how few times something like that must have happened, so many factors, and is the number smaller than the number of people who walked on the moon?

I've heard that if you wait long enough in an anechoic chamber; and listen closely, that you can actually hear some of those internal sounds like blood pumping. Edit: LoL I really should wait until the end before commenting.

Subject zero is a really good channel with 3D animation...i recommend *MAKING A NEUTRON BOMB*

We have more than 5 senses. We can sense temperature, hunger, thirst, sense how our body is oriented and much more...

Congrats on getting past 70k subs 😀 On the point about facial expressions and your skull doesn't change shape, technically, the skull does change, and can affect expressions. It's a very slow process though. If you tend to have certain postural positions, often due to work, after tens of thousands of hours of that ( ie decades), the use of some muscles, and minimal use of other muscles in the head and neck, cause increases of the bone, to cater for the increased persistent muscle tension. So, where when you were a fit 20yo who held their head up high and straight, as a 55yo, after decades leaning over computers, a lifetine of stress causing jaw muscle atrophy from grinding ( cslled bruxism), etc, your head might be a a tilt, your lower face wider, your smile will look different.

Apparently there is actually 9 senses, the Other 4 are the thermoceptipn sense of cold and hot , equilibrioception sense of balance, the proprioceptipn sense of belonging and position, and finally the sense of pain nociception.

Japan considers birth as age 1 too, according to my dad, who was born there. He said he had to work around that when he dealt with US statistics for school.

I have a mechanical heart valve for an aortic regurgitation issue and I now hear my heart beat all day long : )

About the part of our body living a moment in the future: I once read that as our consciousness is an extremely complex and hence rather slow brain function, we take all our decisions about 0.2-0.3 seconds before we actually realise that we have taken them. The consequence of this is that, our conscious self doesn't take any decisions at all. It's just our biochemistry that does, which has the, for many people uncomfortable, consequence that there is no such thing as "free will". There's a lovely 10 minutes video from Sabine Hossenfelder "You don't have free will, but don't worry" on that subject, but derived from physics.

There are 2 days every year when your day isn't 24 hours, factoring in daylight savings time.

I have to have a fan on at all times because I hate the quiet. I have minor hearing damage so "quiet" isn't really quiet to me, it's just a really annoying high pitched noise that makes it hard to concentrate but for some reason if there's ambient noise around I don't hear the ringing, it goes to the back of my mind.

according to physics there is no cold, just more or less warm. so if you feel something to be cold : It is just you losing warmth to the less warm object. cold doesn't exist and we only feel the warmth going away then. if I understand well we then feel the flow of energy

Such a beautiful mind

"Tempt" instantly came to mind for me.

I had the thought about limited faces in the world several years ago. Since then I often notice people with almost the exact same face. I have even seen the same face on three women from three very different ethnicities.

I really liked the clapping one. x)

There is a young lady that lives in my town that looks very much like you. When I first came across your channel I thought you were her.

im someone who hates wasting food... so to hear food never goes bad something just started eating before you did... made my night. lol

When we realize that a line of paint on the road will have more authority than we'll ever will

1:29 This is why teleportation like you see in movies or Star Trek will not be possible as the person or object that dematerialises will rematerialise in empty space because the planet has moved away from its previous spot very quickly. Similarly time travel where the object or person disappears and reappears in the past, or the future, will not be on the earth as the planet has moved to a position where it was in the past or where it will be in the future, while the time travelling person or object reappears in the same spot where it disappeared; i.e. in empty space, as it hasn't moved distance only time.

The International Space Station is the size of a football field but since it travels at 28 000 km/h (or 17 000 mph) or 7.66 km/s, if you are close enough to its orbit, you won't be able to observe it fly past you because its speed is so high.

Congratulations on hitting 70k your going to be at 100k before you know it I love this channel 🙂

Hey, no long comment. You're a beautiful person.

The shower thoughts guy's voice is like a male version of yours. You both have the same clear and soft voice and style of speech.

daydreamt, dreamt, outdreamt, redreamt, undreamt

"Shower thought" from a conversation with a friend. There are two ways you can look at the order of how you eat food from your plate if you're saving the best for last. You are either gradually eating better and better food or you're always eating the worst piece of food that's on your plate.

Identical siblings aren't freaked out by dopplegangers.

The Korean method of counting personal age is logical, if I understand it correctly. When you're born, you start at 1, because you are now in your 1st year of Life. On the anniversary of your birth, you are now 2, as you are in your 2nd year of Life....and so on. It's just like counting calendar years. In the Western world, we started at Year 1 - not Year 0. We were in the 1st year of the 1st century C.E.. January 1st, Year 101, we started the 2nd Century. January 1st, 2001, we started the 21st century.

in terms of the sound of your own blood moving, try covering your ears with your hands, the noise you hear is the blood moving in you

The Malice book felt like a version of 1984 from big brothers perspective. I can understand wanting something light after that. looking forward to more uploads. Hope you are well

You can always use sanitizer wipes to clean your phone. You let it dry off before you charge because some might have alcohol content.

Blood going through your veins sounds like a wide stereo-effect pulsating 'ooom ooom ooom ooom' - in stereo because the sounds in each ear are not exactly the same, so it doesn't sound like it's in the middle of your head. Some people hear it when they wake up with their heart racing from having a nightmare.

If we assume that time is infinite and that the laws of physics are constant, then no matter how unlikely, at some point the exact combination of chemicals that make each of us unique (including things like DNA, etc) will be recreated as basically a new us as a blank slate. Again and again, forever, even if it takes unimaginable stretches of time between each.

also interesting is that we never feel the objects we touch : we rather feel the repelling force of the other object and we follow the curvature of that other object repelling us. so actually we've never touched anything : rather we feel and remember the repelling force giving us the feedback so if you hold a sheet of paper between your fingers : It is hovering between your fingers

9:11 Dreamt and it’s derivatives are the only words in the modern English language that ends in MT.

Shower thoughts. I never said those two words together. Shower thoughts. Now I heard No Protocol say them. It's a lot to think about.

the visible frustration😂 u really tryna think of a word that ends in mt

'verklempt' ends in mpt. Though, it's originally Yiddish.

That Korean age thing reminds me of British floor numbering. In north America when you walk into a building at street level you are typically on the ground floor; and to reach the first floor you need to ascend flight of stairs. In Britain, and perhaps elsewhere, the ground floor and fist floor are one and the same. So by escalating your first flight of stairs you find yourself on the second floor. Just a different datum along some cultural lines.

We actually have something like 15 or 18 senses. I can't recall all of the others, but the sense of balance is one of them, for example.

I instantly thought of dmt when the mt question was asked… Haha

"If everyone always blinked at the same time nobody would know that we blink". Therefore we wouldn't have a verb for blinking. So how would we call a blinker? And what other name would blink 182 have chosen instead?

I think that I had a thought once🤔

if you make a list of everything love is and is not you can start to fill in the edges like a jigsaw puzzle and you start to find some strange things like its clearly not an emotion though it does fruit many emotions, hate is not even part of the love spectrum (it is neither love or its opposite as you can love people you hate), the closest definition to the opposite of love i can find using this method is actually evil or Evol =P, both love and its opposite are jealous but they differ in ideology (liberation vs domination) ......the longer you try to understand it more confused you become but also the more ok with that you become. and strangest of all Love is alive because we are alive but unlike a parasite it sustains us

2:40 - Even our age counting has its own "perks": imagine you were born, for example, on December 30th 1965. This year, when someone asks you how old you are, you say 57. Then when they ask "oh, so you were born in 1966?" and you say "no, I was born in 1965", they get confused because they subtracted 57 to 2023 to get 1966, not knowing that you're one year older only for two days each year. 🙂 7:30 - Actually, I have. 😊 11:34 - I don't agree. Clapping existed way before high-fiving became a thing.

If cars were designed to max out at highway speeds, they would be running at 7000rpm, which would be terribly inefficient and uncomfortable. They would also be less usable in an emergency situation.

QOTD: I'm team Sherlock all the way. Those were the first books I read that weren't a part of my school program and I was enjoying the heck out them. Still do, to this day. If you're into stories with a "crime solving" vibe, give a read to John Grisham's The Firm or The Summons. They aren't really about detectives, the emphasis is more so on courts and lawyers, but they're a page turner that'll keep you engaged till the end 🙃

If you don't have time to get through every recommendation, you could put them in a list randomizer so it's "fair."

Clapping really is a weird thing that we do.

I would recommend anything narrated by Prof. Brian Cox from UK.

Sherlock Holmes! I like Doyle's other short stories as well.

[12:29] Technically, it is still 24 hours but in a way you never had a 24 hour day because there's an additional time, almost a minute every day, building up to 6 hours every year.

Whatever the number of variations of facial features is, it's made even smaller by our ability to distinguish between units of measure or tones or shades of colors. If the number of variations is infinite, then the number of variations we can tell is also infinite but smaller, right?

There was a story back in August about a woman in Ecuador who was going through photos with her mother-in-law and saw a photo of her husband with herself in the background 15 years before they met. Story was on the New York Post website...Aug 5, 2022. I'd post a link but I don't think links are allowed in the comments.

"The oldest picture of you is actually the youngest picture of you."

A friend sent me a pic on FB that a friend of hers had sent to her. Her friend had seen me on my friend's page, and had a friend that looked a lot like me. When I saw the pic I felt a strange feeling come over me. I was looking at who I knew to be me when I look into a mirror, but he was in a place I had never been, with people I did not know, and he was wearing a red shirt, which I have never owned in my entire life.

If you like detective novels you should try The Bone Collector by Jeffery Deaver. It's the first book in the Lincoln Rhyme series. They aren't epic works of literature. He pumps one out every 12 months or so. But they are fun, tightly written books about a paralyzed former detective turned NYPD consultant and his protege, officer Amelia Sachs . He writes other stuff too. I've only read one of his books that I genuinely disliked. If you do try it, let me know what you think of it. Don't hold the movie adaptation against it. The book is MUCH better. It's night and day. And this is coming from someone who loves Denzel Washington. He starred in the movie. But even he could not save it.

8:35 I personally like to judge fluency by one's ability to reliably make a pun.

How do they stick Teflon onto non-stick frying pans?

Definitely AC's Poirot. The character is so endearing and annoying at the same time. His perfect appearance and social awkwardness is so well thought out. *Edit* To me Sherlock Holmes is just an obnoxious junkie.

2:13 Korea just ended the practice of "Korean aging" this year

Why is pulling yourself under a bathtub of warm water... or kneeling under the shower head that percussions upon you... so satisfying? I ask but it is. Minutes of a lifetime w water is just crazy true real.

There are many more days that aren't 24 hours. DST is still a thing for most people

kempt, tempt, coempt, just gotta get good scrabble😂

My shower thought is always wondering whether pets would actually like their owners if they had the ability to speak.

Here’s one that freaked me out when I first heard it. The “little piggy” that “went to market” wasn’t going on a shopping trip. 😱🍖

I've actually seen a crane being put together.

I don't have "Shower Thoughts' - I have "Hey, I see that you're trying to get to sleep but I have a ton of things I want to think about" thoughts. And there's a lot. For me it's usually about words, why something is called/named what it is? Etc. My brain loves semantics.

Not to do with this, but I found it interesting. Scientists have been putting together studies over the last 2 decades and are now confident that there is another inner most core to the planets inner core. About 300 km in diameter, and they think there could be a huge amount processes contributed to this that we still have no idea how crucial they are to life on the planet. It could explain the changes in the speed of the earth's core, and some of the strange oscillations previously measured.

The thought about the only non 24 hours days is not actually true, or at least not foe everyone. where daylight saving is a thing, there are two days of the year wich is longer/shorter than 24 hours

Enter another dimension when you extend the time over to a Full steamy Hot Bath.

"Silence" disappears when you say it. You literally have a skeleton inside your body. Everything exists. Even if they don't, they exist as "non-existing". When they say that "whenever you wake up at 3am is because someone or something is looking at you," that's probably, partially, true. To be precise, someone or something is looking at you 24/7 considering the amount of microorganisms we have in the environment, inside of us, and on our skin. Continuing that line of thought, there are probably ones who are crawling at your face right now.
