Don't you turn 2 in a month?
Greetings from South Dakota
Half as Interesting Red mine next.
Yay! Congrats!!! Ü
eighth as interesting when?
Looking forward to "Eighth As Interesting" for all the topics that didn't make the cut for this video
And then 1/16 as interesting
Gannon Rice And then 1/32 as intresting
sixteenth as interesting...
1/8 is $20
@@christopheraviation9556 and then 1/64 as intresting
These subjects have one thing in common: they don't transition into aviation/logistics smoothly enough
There's gonna be a tax for that.
...
Also not enough bricks.
They don't involve bricks
@@therealgadielsepulveda
OVERSIMPLIFIED!
You will never make more than 199 medium quality, slightly funny, slightly interesting videos on a nondescript grouping of subjects.
Mean_Commenter Wait that was actually you? I thought it was made up by the name. Hang on are you a HAI dummy account?
HAI himself needs to see this comment!
The Hidden Ninja You know somehow, I think he already knows
holy shit you're real ??!!!!
YOU'RE REAL!?
Bricks aren't in the list. That can only mean we're getting a video about them.
Yess
That's for Fully Interesting, however so long as he keeps halving the half he will never reach a whole.
petlahk Legend 😂😂
I really cant wait for the video
ieshi akerman can’t wait for a brick video
>emu war
>"not even half as interesting"
Australian: *aggresive typing*
Australian: *types in upside down*
>types in oversimplified
Australian don’t care about the emu war. It was really lame tbh
The problem with the Emu War is that nearly everyone has already talked about it.
Castsmith Australian: gets angry at the way Emu is pronounced
When we getting the episode about bricks?
Or the halls?
Yes we need it now..!
GIVE US THY BRICCS
It wasn't included in this list, so there's still hope.
or barrels?
Half as Interesting: "We can't make a 5 minute long video about Emu War."
Feature History: *makes a 7 minute long video about Emu War*
Oversimplified made a 10 minute one
@@The_Keeper_of_Names I guess that HAI is even more oversimplified than Oversimplified
Probably there are hour long documentaries made about it
@@milancealeksimovic4650 HAHAHAHA! HAHAHA-HAHAHA-HAHAHA!
@@milancealeksimovic4650 Possibly you are right although I watched it again and about half the video is padded with jokes though it is in more detail.
When you see HAI advertising a Sam O’Nella video:
*Ah. I see you’re a man of culture as well.*
Greeting fellow being with one of the worst animal skeletons~
I see your a person of culture as well
Hey kids
@@luuksteller7223 - No thanks I only buy watches from sketchy Swiss dudes, not from sketchy non-swiss internet dudes.
loooooooooooooool
@@petlahk4119 what about buying watches from swiss miss? or should I say swiss piss
This guy has a list with topics that didn’t make the cut.
This dude made a video about elevators.
I'll bet it was very uplifting! :-D
Paul Rubens Lol ;D
@@yipper503 🤣🤣🤣🤣🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
You're forgetting about the road sign that was in metric.
But elevators are very interesting
He did it, by god he made 100 medium quality, slightly funny, slightly interesting videos on a nondescript grouping of subjects.
I didnt think he could
"We can't stretch these topics out to 5 minutes"
Oversimplified's 10 mminute Emu War video: Am I a joke to you?
IKR
HAI didn't say it couldn't be done, just that they couldn't do it.
The fact that I can't run 100 meters in under 10 seconds does not mean that Usain Bolt doesn't exist.
lol
3:20 The ball dropped exactly at 6pm for me (I could hear the church bell) which was by far the coolest thing that happened to me today
Can't wait for the Full Interesting, a whole movie about planes
I think you mean a full movie about bricks.
That’s wendover
Will there be a 100% as Interesting?
Wendover Productions
Wendover Productions
That's just Wendover Productions
What about a 1/8th as interesting video?
@@mark8307 But what if the video isn't about planes or other forms of transportation.
That Sam O'Nella Academy shout out...
EDIT: Tom Scott and the rest of the Technical Difficulties covered Ruth Belville on an episode of Citation Needed.
It's complete with what is either the best or worst joke that one will here today if they watch it.
It’s impossible to make an interesting 5 minute video on the emu war.
laughs in Oversimplified
"It's impossible to make an interesting 5 minute video on the emu war"
This enraged his father, who punished him severely.
“The United Kingdom of Great Britain and probably Northern Ireland depending on when your watching this”
Thinking ahead
Noice
Lol
But he put Scotland in the UK... so not really
Mn M good point
Blaydon eh
Theresa Mayday doesn't like this element
You should make a 1/8 as interesting about what did not make the cut of a quarter as interesting.
and than 1/16 as interesting for what didn't make the cut for that
@@ronangames786 and a 1/32 as interesting as bloopers for 1/16.
@@b-zar8912 and a 0.015625
as interesting for that
All the channels together would be once as interesting.
A hundred videos: what a milestone. Congratulations, HAI! Looking forward to the next hundred. Cheers.
tbh if my channel was a quarter as interesting as this quarter as interesting video, i'd be in good shape
hahahahha
So you aren't even 1/16 as interesting as Wendover Productions?
Some of the most bone chilling words ever spoken. “Decisive Emu Victory”
When he mentioned Sam O‘Nella I was so happy that channel is so good
Ruth Belville has been covered on Tom Scott’s channel in a game of Citation Needed. The electricity surge gets covered every year on some magazine TV show like The One Show
1:36 Also there's an OverSimplified video on it so go watch that!
Minion
This enraged Sam's father who punished him severely.
I have never smashed the like button faster before. Now I need a new screen.
OverSimplified: Making a video about a subject I covered even simpler?
Yeah there’s gonna be a tax for that.
I would watch a wall if only he cracked his bad jokes
Guess the title will be cracks on walls

When will Twice as Interesting be made? 🤔
After "Interesting"
2^10000000000000^10000000000000 as interesting
Half as interesting thank you so much for you videos! Your dry humor gets me every time
Can't wait for 1/8 and 1/16 as interesting.
I'd be more impressed if he can come up with 1/1024 As Interesting.
When will One Eighth as Interesting come out? I know that Quarter as Interesting has just been released, but I’m already excited for its sequel
*You've come a long way*
Your topics will always be 100% as interesting for me
Congratulations on 100th Videos.
So many more hundreds to go! ❤️
The US having a civil war in another country, classic
Soban Faiz just can’t keep the war bug in our own pants now can we.
Ah ha! I've found your secret. You just look through the Unusual Articles page on wikipedia until you find something half as interesting!
All jokes aside great job Sam, everything you put out is honestly amazing and I wish you luck with continuing it!
I burst into laughter when you said, 4:00 "You could take the bridge like a boring, oatmeal-eating dude."
Half as Interesting: Sorry I didn't make a video about the emu war. It wasn't interesting enough.
Me: If oversimplified can do it why can't you?
Australians: Are we a joke to you?
Still waiting for the 'Storm Area 51' video.
Oh, and the bricks video as requested.
Nah that one Will he covered by the internet historian
Real Life Lore did a video regarding ‘Storm Area 51’
VanMan 23 Yep, I saw it. Although I am waiting for Half as Interesting to do one.
That was the best transition into the sponsor ever. I have said that on hai videos before but this one...I had no idea where it was going. Keep up the good work and the funny transitions.
Congratulations! Thanks for so many half as interesting videos, the comedy is well balanced and the information density is great
“Go watch Sam’o Nella’s video” I love this
"England's favorite hexagon" is the best gag in this video.
I don't get it, though.
France itself is more, shall I say, pentagonal
@@thehiddenninja3428 Fair. I mostly laughed at the "favorite" part though.
I was waiting for an episode on the Great Emu War
Great video! Quick tip - in Australia, an emu is pronounced “eem-you”
+
HAI: We couldn't stretch The Emu War to over 6 minutes
Oversimplified, who made a 10 minute video on The Emu War: _am I a joke to you_
This looks like Wendover productions
Without planes?
I saw 10,000 Emus once.
_They tied me up and killed my family_
What was I talking about again
I remember his first episode and to see him come this is far is just amazing
I am convicted that QAI should make up every 25th episode of HAI. 😍😍😍
HAI quotes from this video:
"I will skin u alive lol"
"Upside-Down Americans"
"Anger tea"
"Boring, oatmeal eating dude"
4:48
"more south...like beyond the sofa on the porch kind of south"
the bit about the civil war battle in brazil will be really helpful for my social studies project, i'm so glad i found this video!!
Is nobody going to talk about the fact that the Quarter as Interesting logo at 0:45 is actually legit good?
Probably some texturable 3D Q
I feel personally attacked by the "sofa on the porch" line. I'm going to go cool off on my porch now
The transitions are absolutely flawless; LEGEND
I binged season 1 of extremities this week! I loved it!! Can’t wait for season 2!!
if he makes a quarter as interesting channel, It would be good for a quick watch like if you're on a 5 minute break or a toilet break
HAI: "You can't possibly make 5 min video on Emu War."
OverSimplified: "Hold my beer: th-cam.com/video/BXpu6tbFCsI/w-d-xo.html"
This needs to be a regular thing! Ily
Loved the episode and felt it was too short. more like this please
As a British person, I dont like tea and after a football match, you know, after the one you play with your feet, we all go drinking. We prefer Guinness or Fosters.
that moment you realize when one of your favorite youtubers watches Sam O'Nella
Hey kids.
Cant wait for the 1/8th as interesting series.
Congrats on making 100 videos.
man, if only this was a semi-annual series
At 1:45, you forgot about cricket, rain, and cancelling cricket matches due to rain.
hai: *EMOOO*
every Australian:
ATTACK
Whoa there are 100 of these already? Feels like just yesterday I was watching the Wendover video announcing this channel
From Wikipedia: TV pickups occur during breaks in popular television programmes and are a surge in demand caused by the flushing of toilets (leading to a surge at the pumping stations) and the opening of fridge doors by millions of people.[2] There is a common misconception that the number one driver of TV pickup is the boiling of kettles. In fact, this only creates a pull on the local network for a short period of time until the water has boiled, and can therefore be managed relatively easily, whereas flushing the toilet causes a longer surge at the water and sewerage pumping stations, and opening the refrigerator lets the chilled air escape, causing the compressor to run. These loads are more of a problem for the grid.

*Grrr, France is a PENTAGON!!! The south side is almost perfectly straight so it’s ONE side, and FIVE in total!!!*
::grumble:: ::grumble:: ::grumble::
Talks about a causeway in France and references a religious being but didn’t mention the Holy Island causeway.
Laughed more at this than any of your vids so far. Love this channel and your humour. From a tea drinking Brit.
This needs to be a series.
But where's Fully Interesting: The Topics That Were Too Good?
It's called 'Wendover Productions'.
@@toanoopie34 and planes are a requirement in topics.
I can't handle him saying 'e-moo', I'm out. Enjoy the vid guys
"Ah, shut up me."
Goodness, I love you Sam.
The thing about kettles being the main source of TV pickup is a bit of a myth. The biggest source is surprisingly from the massive number of toilets being flushed simultaneously (because everyone had been holding it in till after the match/tv show finished), which requires water pumping stations to come online to maintain pressure in the water mains. Another source that outstrips the kettles is from the number of fridges being opened (presumably to get milk for the tea), which then warm up slightly resulting in the compressor kicking in to cool everything back down
i love how sam just says 'emu' wrong XD its pronounced 'ee-mew'
HAI: These could never be made into a video
Me: Challenge accepted
KhAnubis bet he won’t pin you
stop clinging on his tail
This should be a weekly series
It’s nice to see fellow Sams looking out for each other
At least this video wasn’t quarter as interesting...
Hi
You're first
HAI: the Emu War cannot be stretched out into a 5 minute video.
Oversimplified: Am I a joke to you?
they should make more videos with scrapped ideas compressed into one video, damn you even already have the name of the series! Quarter as interesting
0:20 I am just looking at the "Fact" that they got 100K likes for that comment
Emu is pronounced eem-yew. Not ee-moo.
*this isn't me being presciptivist of English, it's an Indigenous word.
I’m glad you plugged my boy Sam’s video about the emu war.
You see, this is a perfect video to celebrate HAIs #100 video!!!
Also Emu is pronounced Ē-Mew, not E-Moo (which is how you pronounced it).
Also, if you didn't know a long line above a letter means it's a long Sound.
You could talk about the physics of paint drying and I'd still watch it and find it interesting (I'd also skip through the skillshare bit)
In reference to the tidal road in France, there's also one off the coast of Northumberland in England that temporarily connects Lindisfarne (colloquially known as Holy Island) to the mainland. The road is so long and the tides rise with such speed that there are safety huts spread across the road for anyone that gets stranded, the official policy from the local government is to just wait it out (barring stormy weather conditions).
Dang, has it really been 100 Episodes already?
I've been here from the start since the channel was first announced and it's always been one of the Uploads I'd look forward to the most in my subbox , Much Love
Nope it has been 49.75 episodes
@@andykillsu Nice ^^
I was there when you announced It on wendover productions. I have been a subscriber since the beginning.also congrats on 1m subs
You should look at Dinorwig Power Station -- it's a giant lake at the top of a mountain in wales that they pump water into to release huge emergency power when it's needed. One of the main uses that it gets is to specifically deal with Tea Time power surges.
3:45
Literally the best part of the video, and also why i'm watching your videos
This should be a series
I didn't know the channel was this young...
AWESOME!
HAI : Stretching out the emu war to five minutes is impossible.
Simple History : Hold my drink.
Episode 100 and 1million subs, congrats!
I did drive through Le Passage du Gois, and it's both fun and beautiful. There are many stories about cars that were trapped in the tide and lost to the sea
Now for the 1000 000 sub, WE WANT THIS BRICK VIDEO
