We’re proud to collaborate with Bill and Melinda Gates for this week’s video! It may sometimes seem like things are getting worse, but there’s lots of reasons to be optimistic about the future. More people have access to toilets and sanitation than ever before. Thanks to public health improvements like this, since 1990, 122 million children’s lives have been saved. Diseases like polio are nearing eradication. Women have more access to health care and education than ever before.
But our work is not done. How can YOU help make the future better for the world’s poorest?
SPECIAL THANKS:

It's incredible to me that in our age of iPhones, drones, and TH-cam, 1 in 3 people on Earth still lack access to basic sanitary toilets. LOTS of people, mainly children, die unnecessarily as a result. I think it's time we flush this problem once and for all, don't you? Something to think about next time you sit on your porcelain throne.
It's Not Okay To Be Smart
Nice video and some good puns! keep it up :)
Donald trump your not even close to average
I love how this show feces down the big issues.
by that I mean your dumb
I'm actually useful.
That's a Toilet hello toilet
Nah, your always full of crap
PotatoPuff162 that is if you don't flush
That's a Toilet I keep my poop in a toilet. I eat, poop, and the poop goes to da ocean ( I think )
But Blocko from Life Noggin doesn't even know what you are.

For a second I thought this said “woman”
I was wondering who this woman was, and why she liked poop so much

So both John Snow and Kit Harrington's ancestor had a part in this? Truly a game of Thrones ._.
lol!
that’s a funny comment
you--
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING
YOU WIN THE INTERNET
I remember learning in a sociology class I took in college that improved sanitation more than improved medicine was responsible for increased life expectancy. I think the toilet is probably the most underrated technological innovation of all time. Great video promoting it!
This episode was full of sh**!
Why the fuck do you censor it? Fucking Americans...
I don't get it
Literally, this episode was full of shit. Literally. You can see them everywhere on the videos.
Yea, I hated it too.
i hate puns...
In days of old,
when knights were bold,
and toilets weren't invented,
people laid their load,
beside the road,
and walked away contented!

Which "load" are you referring to?

What's relevant to me on Valentines Day is that India shits in its fucking streets and doesn't care.
Thomas Crapper... Well i know why people thought he invented the toilet...
Vincent Cardona mr crapper was born i my town ( the same one as Jerry clarkson )
Lol
CRAPper
It was actually his marketing.
Toilets weren't called crappers until he started selling them and had his name displayed prominently on every toilet.
crap
I should be sleeping.... and yet, I watch the history of the crapper🤦♀️
Lol
Is "crapper" used by british or australian people ?
Just curious, I've heard shitter used by americans and i am aware of the different word usage in different countries thats why i asked
@@sidhantjasrotia220 to be honest; I'm really not sure...
Im Canadian- so perhaps it a British thing?

You must've forgotten the flood that killed every Indian in 2500 BCE... and after that, Eastern Europeans migrated (Turkish-like) and became supremacists, forgetting about Indus Valley, and only discovered it in 1820.

Fuckall, India invented the toilet.
Mohan jadro 1st City in mankind history that discovered toilets , watch vedio again
Turns out Jon Snow did know something after all.
I knew a special person like you will comment that.
Zain Ashir Jon snow's real name is kit Harrington , his great great grandfather Harrington made new Era toilet
John Harrington 2:45 check Google
No, it was Walpole.
Zain Ashir i was gone say this😂😭
Some people are embarrassed to talk about toilets. Just say the word toilet to them and their face gets *flushed.*
;)
Aguila701 oh no my delicate sensibilities
Master Therion meh I like the sci shows puns better ima go back there lol
Aaron Smith Yeah, raw food and parasites are funnier than toilets anyways. ^_^
Master Therion you again
GET OUT
Nobody is embarrassed...
It seems like George R.R Martin is a big fan of toilets.
He named one of his main characters after a toilet inventor and hired another toilet inventor's relative to play that said character..
John Harrington and Jon Snow.
Sorry for the long comment. Cheers!
Dont forget tywin lannister also died on the toilet!
many years later...
we're hoarding toilet paper
love how this was recommended to me in the middle of said pandemic
dont forget about 5:43
I cannot imagine what it was like for mothers before diapers were invented...
Zen Archer periods without pads is a pain too
space cookies Still better than getting pissed and shit on.
Ugh well in most countries of asia and africa they still don't use diapers and pads too they are maybe too expensive for those poor people or for other reasons maybe (not in their reach or knowledge that things like them even exits)
daniyal k+ We have Diapers and Pads in Africa. Perhaps remote villages don't have them, but they have historical methods and techniques for dealing with such.

3:17 - the serious, straight way you delivered that line made me have to pause the video I was laughing so hard.
Only other time I've heard about Sir John Harrington was the South Park episode where he appears as a ghost to tell everyone they've been using toilets wrong and you're supposed to sit on it the other way facing the back "so you have a little table for your comic books and chocolate milk" proving Butter's was the only using toilets as originally intended.
Watchin it while sitting on toilet
once you hyungw-on you cant hyungw-off srly
I am too. 😂
Same. Shooting lava outta my rear. 😣😖
same
Ivan Johnson hope it wasn’t nothing serious m8
Kit Harrington (Jon Snow) is related to John Harrington.
Wait… is this true? I have not heard this. Sources anyone? Incredible
Charles II was his eighth-great-grandfather
It's Okay To Be Smart according to Wikipedia He is indeed an member of the House Harington and Part of the lineage
That's amazing.
This fact has blown my mind. Thank you everyone.
Loved the three seashells film reference! Be well and don’t get fined for a violation of the verbal morality statute.
🤗😂🥳 LOVE the 3 seashells reference!!
Give this man an award for talking about poop maturely, and without filling the video with poop jokes.
Seems like a waste of opportunity to me
Who's is pooping and watching???? Only me? Come on guys...
Eduardo Varella I was literally on the toilet when I checked my subscriptions and saw this video.

This guy is amazing! He researches and learns to teach us and I've learned so much from him! He rarely has ads and almost all his videos are translated in like 8 languages! You can check in the captions!
Quarantine has now made me watch history about toilets...
what a life am having, watching a video about toilets at 4 AM !
Yaser Humeid OMG I AM WATCHING IT AT 4:20 am RIGHT NOW IN DUBAI OH YEAH 4:20 SMOKE WEED EVERYDAY
Same here
Hey me too
A whole video featuring 💩. That's a topic that really moves through us.
What a load of crap
Lol
This guy hasn't changed too much since that time he went on an adventure to Atlantis.
Im sorry it took 3 years for someone to appreciate this comment. It is deeply underrated.
Nice Demolition Man reference. I'm still trying to figure out what those seashells do... 🤔

I usually hate these, since these are the CANCER of youtube comments. But this was pretty funny.
Carlos Martinez I saw somebody else post this totally copied
Random doesn't equal funny.
I still kinda liked this.
Thanks, Bill and Melinda.
Thanks for all the sh*t
i owe my life to the plumbers and farmers

The three seashells reference got me good
Looks like Jon Snow did know something after all!
fun fact: Sir John Harrington who invented modern toilet (2:45) is great great great great grandfather of kit Harrington who portraying Jon Snow

"Demolition Man" reference. Nice.
How many people get the "Three Seashells" reference?
yujabes probably the same number of people that have heard of Wesley Snipes.
... and if you don't understand this (1993 cinematographic) reference, you can curse to have paper!
According to my calculations, at least 11 people.
Make that 12 :-)
damn him for reminding me.. now im gonna spend the rest of the day trying to figure out how they work :
I can't believe people were so nasty. for so long. even cats or dogs bury their poop sometimes. I understand some people didn't have access to water all the time, but there's dirt everywhere. make a hole bury your poop.
I still can't believe it.
Do you believe it yet?
Never heard of a dog burying their poop.
Ronald Summers I think it's a very rare case for dogs. maybe the ones that grew up around cats? I think I heard of some dogs doing that...
Dogs have no qualms with eating poop
"Thomas crapper" the guy has crap in his name😂😂. No wonder he is credited for inventing toilets
kinda funny how Sir Harington is Kit Harington's ancestor and then a guy named Jon Snow figured out the Cholera thing.
Now.. we had toilets that talk in japan..
have*
serious?
Zackary Schejbal yeah lol
n an i
Did someone say JON SNOW????????????
Winter is coming
He knows his shit
Pooping at the wall must have been a butt chilling ordeal.
*bet his contemporaries said to him "you know nothing jon snow"*
Kleo ness maybe they pooped on top of the wall to make it taller.
Does anyone remember when that kid in elementary school went out of the stall and didn’t wash there hands, and you just stood there staring like 👁👄👁
I have a Doulton ceramic water filter invented in England to sanitize water during epidemics. Love it!
Love the "Demolition Man" reference. Anyone catch that?
Who else is watching this on the toilet?
..
Dylan Watson you are
Uuhhh... me :)
Not me. But it inspired to go make a visit to the throne...
I had too much coffee this morning.
The three shells reference got me
Incredibly informative! Can I use this for my show?
i gave my toilet a big hug after watching this
You know nothing john snow!😂😂😂
YES!!!!! Extra history squad where you at!!!!!
the guy who created the toilet is actually kit harrington(jon snows) ancestor
tieler gray DAMN IT! I was going to go for this joke lol
I got a bidet ad before this,my grandparents have one,it's nice.
"A toilet in the bathroom? What's next, a husband and wife sleeping in the same bed??" - 1950's sitcoms probably
I have 3 question:
1) where do our waste go when we flush it down the toilet
2) does our waste affect animals
3) does the water we use for the toilets get reused
Humans don’t care about waste that’s why we doom everything we transform.
you know nothing Jon snow
knight shade, greetings comrade. Extra credits welcomes you.
Yes extra credits
John Harrington is Kip Harrington's (Jon Snow actor) greatuncle or something like that.
DA EXTRA CREITS :D
lol i love ec.
I actively searched for this comment :D

Lancashire's 19th century potato crop was fertilised by human waste, take the fields by the Night Soil Men.
As a kid in the UK, I remember Victorian public toilets, with huge wooden doors and a brass lock that opened with the drop of a coin.
You lost me when you mentioned Jon Snow
But I mentioned JOHN Snow
nd did you know that the Harrington mentioned in the video is Kit Harrington's ancestor ? =D
Volcano Games but that WAS the dudes name. No joke.
Perfect video for valentines

we could *WIPE* this toilet absence from the earth if we could just *FLUSH* in a few dollars to help. Lel
Love the three sea shell Demolition Man reference lol.
The longest time ever of someone being constipated (can't poop): About 100 days. Nightmare on that.
Then they had "Miserere" (google it)
Duchesse de Berne I'm pretty sure if you have to Google it, it's not a good joke lol
Man imagine when you finally get to drop that load. What a brick. Might even crack the porcelain.
"Thomas Crapper" ahahahahahahah
Kain Bastien crap
It is weird that I watched this on the toilet ?
Me:yup
A good video before the "Three Seashells"mention, and a wonderful one after it.
People need to get with the times and learn to wash their ass every single time they use the restroom. It is not widespread enough.
While I do agree, paper tissue does a good enough job.
Georgia S. Yeah but some people don't do a good enough job themselves XD
Aphro
I completely agree. There needs to be a new toilet system where you actually clean yourself, not just wipe it around.
Seth Perry You heard of Japanese toilets?
Georgia S.
I don't live in Japan...so no.

Funny you mention Snow, the Harington guy who invented the first toilet is actually Kit Harington's ancestor. He talks about this on a talk show, can't remember which one.
so funny when you google john snow you get the ice zombie killer instead of the guy who saved millions from shitting themselves to death.
That's humanity for you.

Please use water, not toilet paper. You missed this. Feel cleaner.
@spack2k I recommend you to try that first before commenting..
Whole Asia doesn't wipes their butt after taking a dump
That's exactly what I said. I don't know how people could just use toilet paper, it's crazy. You're supposed to wash both your butt and your hands, I really cannot fathom just using paper, would you eat out of a plate that wasn't washed but was just wiped with paper? No, so why do they think using toiletpaper is enough to get the job done? Even when I'm out, and I use the bathroom first I fill a bottle of water before entering the stall and I make sure I have things on hand to clean myself.
Yep, I'm from the paper culture and I believe it's horrible. As soon as possible I will try to change it
It's not like our immune system can't deal with it but still it gives me chills
No western toilets include it
@@etriganthedemon666 No, that's not what I think at all, I'm just simply saying that I don't know how people could JUST use paper? That's all. Some people do use toilet paper alone you know, perhaps you don't, but some do.

Had me at 3 seashells. I love you guys.
I love this channel, before I go to sleep,I see a couple videos,I love the variety of topics💕Thank you
I am a proud retired wastewater treatment plant operator here. Sanitary plumbing is the basis for civilization. So the next time you use the toilet, flush twice. We appreciate the sentiment.
Watching this while I'm on the toilet.
Squid Daddy Crabcakes same
Squid Daddy Crabcakes you have got to be shitting me
Squid Daddy Crabcakes XD
"Stay curious"
Oh we will
When you said Airbus of children crashing every 6 hours all of the laughter of some of the things in the video just diminished and just started taking everything seriously. It’s so sad that so many lives are lost to poor sanitation indeed. :(
Oh this isn’t an April fools video...
I have been learned
seems like 8 000 000 000 people should start building OUTHOUSES
instead of shitting in the bushes
Love the 3 seashells reference!!!
The 3 sea shells joke was fantastic.
"Sometimes more if you've had Taco Bell" lmfao.
John Snow knows something, about poop.
0:53 is straight bars
I've watched the entire Brady Bunch series 3 times, and I never noticed that the kids don't have a toilet.
John Harrington? Is he a relative to Kit Harrington aka Jon Snow?
And than Dr. John Snow?
Maby he isn't Azor Ahai but Toilet Man!
According to him, yes.
I like that this video made some of the connections.
Kit Harrington brings up his relation to Sir John Harrington quite a lot in interviews.

A lack of a sanitary toilet (or indoor plumbing) is simply another consequence of poverty, and dealing with it is little different from dealing with poverty itself. Poverty is the original or "natural" condition of humanity, and wealth is largely the creation of increased productivity, and the freedom to invest and innovate. Productivity is increased through savings, i.e. deferring current consumption for later consumption. Savings can then be used towards increasing productivity and creating more wealth. More wealth means more people can afford sanitary toilets, indoor plumbing, and other such modern conveniences.
A major problem in increasing productivity, besides less liberty and minimal property rights in many parts of the world, are the central banks that continually increase the money supply of their currency and distort interest rates, which are essentially the "price" of using someone else's savings or deferred consumption. This continual inflation and interest distortion discourages savings and encourages borrowing, which, among other things, hinders and distorts the development of increased productivity.
