I can add to tbe Bee fact; I spent nearly 2 years outside on the front porch, working and just being there, here in South-West Virginia. We had wasps start moving in, which was alarming at first, until I realized the wasps I was seeing most of the time are non-agressive and have small hives. What was even more fascinating was the discovery that the wasps would investigate me, curious about my presence, and did not try to attack me to drive me off. I mean I was there first! Then the best part started happening; my friend wasps began to defend me from yellow jackets and larger hornets that were quite aggressive toward me. I had maybe 4 nests close to me and another 6 along the porch on the other side of the door. The queens would come over and greet me every day when I came out and got settled for the day, and their daughters would greet me now and then as they went about their day. When yellow jackets appeared, the queen would come out and signal the other wasps to come and drive the invader out! If an invading wasp or hornet refused to leave, well, I'd find them later, cut in half, often with their wings ripped out too. I knew wasps could recognize faces, so I am not surprised that Bees can as well.
Mike, I trust you more than anyone on the internet. Sometimes I will say to others, "According to Mike Estrin on his show list 25 blah, blah, blah." Isn't that something? I love facts the way some love collecting. I have since I was a little tiny kid. I was a whizz at trivial pursuit. Cheers from Ocala, FLA
I went to school with twins born 6 weeks apart - and we were born in the mid-sixties! Not quite the same gap but given the date, very impressive that they survived. The Scots have that many words for snow, of which about a dozen are broadcastable! 😂 (Just teasing my Celtic cousins 🏴🏴)
LOL, no wonder I don't play chess! There is a beefalo farm in my area. They look like miniature buffalo. Too cute! You're so funny Mike!! you're the main reason I watch List25 😊
So happy to have these. I love random facts and so far each one of these I’ve watched in the past few weeks has has at least a few new ones. And I’ve collected facts most of my 43 years. Thank you Mike. Sincerely
Merry Christmas, Mike! I grew up having largely diced and browned spam in mac and cheese as a thrifty dinner entree. We always 'knew' it was spiced ham and the whole family loved it. I'm in my 60's and still make it. Kudos on your pronunciations. They sounded legit to me so I say that's a win! 😂
Not sure what conversion you're using but 25°C is nowhere near 13°F (ref. 10:08 timestamp). 25°C is 77°F and 13°C is about 55°F. I do notice that -25°C is -13°F so perhaps that is the temperature point you were trying to communicate but that's not what the video shows nor what Mike narrated.
One of my professors was involved with debunking the myth about Inuit having so many words for snow. The elders in the village were asked very plainly how many words they had for snow. The answer was that they had as many words for it as there were in English, as in one or two. The myth was perpetuated mostly because, as in many languages, they have a lot of adjectives...but none exclusive to snow.
You are 3,000% better at pronunciation than all of TH-cam . I give obvious foreign based channels a pass on some pronunciations but there are so many bad channels out there. I run TH-cam in the background often and some i have to run with captions to figure out some common words, numbers and celebrity names. There’s one channel out there that reads out abbreviations by S T instead of street and years by each individual number like 2 0 2 3 instead of 2023. Something i have to rewind to figure out what they just said. And of course,they’re the ones that ask for likes , comments and support for their channel. Sometimes their photos don’t match either. I saw one today where there were photos of Jerry Lewis and Jerry Lee Lewis in the video as if they were talking about the same person.😊
To be fair Mexico City's "water table" is actually the water of an old lake. The Aztecs built their capital Tenochtitlan (which is now the center of Mexico City) in the center of the lake. They later built the surrounding city on the lake bed after the lake was drained by the Spanish.
Monopoly derived from "The landlords game". Created in 1903 by Lizzie Magie. Darrow played the game and just changed a couple things and called it Monopoly.
I'm hooked on your videos, as I'm known in my family for knowing rare facts. I'm known as the BOUI....the Bureau of useless information! By the way.... you're gorgeous 😊 God save the King 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Wisconsin here. Can confirm the cow thing. Cows are adorable and can be as stubborn as a mule but mostly just as cute as they seem. Go hug a cow. I think there's a Hell, Minnesota or Michigan? I should remember which one? Anyway MI or MN out there?
There’s also underground caves in Mexico City which could be a culprit in sinking issues ( some caves even were found to contain Incan artifacts and most have been unexplored
I grew up camping in the High Sierras. Traveled with family through the south. Mosquitos were always an issue. Moved to Portland (OR) 5 years ago and camped many times and nary a sight of a mosquito. I assume they must be here, but haven't seen a bug or a Sasquatch yet.
My uncle had a cow that he kept as a pet... that damn thing was basically a 6 foot tall 2000 pound dog. got excited to see him and other dog like mannerisms
Also if what I've heard and read is correct Beefalo were used to work on bringing back the population of buffalo from the brink of extinction. Creating the beefalo then working on breeding the cow out of it until it was back to just buffalo.
Beefalo is DELICIOUS! After the USDA decided to quit giving Natives (at least in the Cherokee Nation) Bison meat back in the early-mid 2000's they switched us to Beefalo. It's lean, tasty, healthy...but last I knew they quit including Beefalo too.
There are dry valleys in Antarctica that have little snow, just winds so strong they sculpt rock and iced up rocky terrain, so you see ice, but no deep snow. Because the winds are so violent, no penguins go there.
Interesting fact about Tips. T.I.P.S. Stand for To Improve Prompt Service, one of the oldest public houses (pubs to everyone else) in London, they placed a wooden box in the porch way of the pub, if seen putting coins in the box you were served quicker.
when i was in elementary school the vowels were: “a e i o u and sometimes y !!” this was in the ‘50’s. i doubt things have changed since then. so rhythm does have a vowel!!!!!! now, is there a word with no consonants? LOL🤣🌷🌱
Was at a dive bar for a birthday party a number of years ago. An older woman in our party wanted to do a karaoke version of Joplin's classic "Mercedes Benz"; the last song she would record before her death. The problem was (still is), is that one can't do a karaoke version of Mercedes Benz (the only other noise in the song besides her voice is Joplin banging her foot on the floor of the recording studio.) Tried informing her (and everyone else at our table of this, but was ignored.) So, she gets up on stage, the lady running the karaoke machine that night then found some other song with the same title, the machine did its job and removed the words to that tune, and, well sir, the disaster began. She's singing "Oh lord, won't you buy me....., the music to some song that not one of us had ever heard was playing and the whole thing was quite the mess.
At 4:53, I've always wondered how putting the best A.I.'s against each other in a game of chess would turn out. Would the game be brief? Or would it go on and on and on. I'd like to see Google's Gemini A.I. go against Chat GPT 5's A.I..
I've heard of twins being born when the clocks changed so the one that came out first had a recorded time that was earlier than when the second one popped out.
I'm shook! Mike, Monopoly was invented by a woman. "Who was the real inventor of Monopoly? In fact, the rules to the game had been invented in Washington DC in 1903 by a bold, progressive woman named Elizabeth Magie. But her place in the game's folk history was lost for decades and ceded to the man who had picked it up at his friend's house: Charles Darrow." Idk what to think...

Sounds like bee shit to me.

Oh gods, I love your jokes!! So glad I found this channel 😁
Welcome!!!
The comedian Bill Engvall said it stood for Stuff Posing As Meat 🤣
Great job being on all those teams. I bet you Dad was proud.
Well....I hope he would have been but he passed when I was 7.
@@list25sorry to hear that 💜 I lost mine 2 yrs ago
Cool backdrop today 🔥
Dying here at attempted Scottish pronunciation. Mike is so adorable though, we totally forgive him, he's welcome here any day!!!!! 😊😊
Truly fun facts!!
great video as always ... perhaps try the Dutch words for rain ;-)
I think the closest relative to T Rex is a chicken for the folks that want to know.
Imagine what Colonel Sanders could do with a T-Rex!!!
I can't believe my hometown was mentioned!! Wooo Waterford!!! Les gooooo!!
Yo man Scotland here, you pretty much nailed it
Thank you so much. That means a lot. Seriously. I like to make sure I pronounce things as correctly (or close to it) as I can.

I loved this video!
Somebody's gotta say it. Mike, you're adorable! ❤
Agreed. If I ever had the privilege of meeting him, I would fan girl like crazy!😊
Just stop it
I must agree 😊
Right! He is like a cuddly Teddy Bear 🥰
Agreed!
I don't know which would be worse - bubblegum-flavored broccoli, or broccoli-flavored bubblegum.........
Or pees.... yuck

Hell, Michigan lol been thru there when its frozen over
18: "TEN!" 🤣
There is also a Hell, MI. and in 2003 there was 86 days that were below freezing.
There’s also underground caves in Mexico City which could be a culprit in sinking issues ( some caves even were found to contain Incan artifacts and most have been unexplored
The longest word in the world is smiles because there is a mile between each S lol
I grew up camping in the High Sierras. Traveled with family through the south. Mosquitos were always an issue. Moved to Portland (OR) 5 years ago and camped many times and nary a sight of a mosquito. I assume they must be here, but haven't seen a bug or a Sasquatch yet.
In northern Michigan, we have a few extra words for snow, too. However, I’m sure you aren’t supposed to pronounce some of them on TH-cam. 😂
My uncle had a cow that he kept as a pet... that damn thing was basically a 6 foot tall 2000 pound dog. got excited to see him and other dog like mannerisms
15:12 I recall 'spiced ham' being on the tins label at some point. Is it not still there? I didn't realise it was some secret
Hell doesn't have a church in it that's just priceless
Excuse me! Mike. My name is Kym, spelt with a Y, & that comment on Y wishy washiness is completely true😂
Star Trek's Scotty might say of your pronunciations, "Mike cunnah make the words work, Captain!"
Also if what I've heard and read is correct Beefalo were used to work on bringing back the population of buffalo from the brink of extinction. Creating the beefalo then working on breeding the cow out of it until it was back to just buffalo.
We have been to Hell in Grand Caymen.
There is a post office there for mail. 😮
13:30 Nice plot for a horror movie (yah, there have been some bug themed horror flicks... but never a worldwide scale one involving those numbers)
Beefalo is DELICIOUS! After the USDA decided to quit giving Natives (at least in the Cherokee Nation) Bison meat back in the early-mid 2000's they switched us to Beefalo. It's lean, tasty, healthy...but last I knew they quit including Beefalo too.

One thing I can say about this channel is I learn something new everytime I watch thanks Mike and list 25 and yes Mike is a total cutie🌹
I appreciate that!
"Have you ever wondered if you can find mosquitos in Iceland?"
.......No.
10:07 - Don't you mean minus 25 °C or minus 13 °F?
The sand which is here ........ really !!!!!!!!!!!! 🤔🤔🤔 ....... 🤣

I love the show!!!! Went back and watched all the past ones. Dig the info...ya 🥦 hater!🤣
Not a Fan of the Green screen, BUT, Love the videos!
when i was in elementary school the vowels were: “a e i o u and sometimes y !!” this was in the ‘50’s. i doubt things have changed since then. so rhythm does have a vowel!!!!!!
now, is there a word with no consonants? LOL🤣🌷🌱
Taught my 6 year old son chess and he kicked my butt!! Thanks for the facts!
I live in Texas and we have three towns called hell , heven , and earth
Hell, Michigan freezes over, too.
Mike you are so cute and funny in a corny dad joke kind of way. Keep up the great content
25° C is not cold how the hell can Hell freeze over at 25° C ?
25° Celsius is 77° Fahrenheit
Hey, that was fun, and plenty woah !! I like spam also. I have no idea how those Scottish worlds should sound either. 👍👍
The southern hemisphere is summer December to February
Still pumped that these guys are back. Despite it being a while.
Michigan has a town named HELL as well. Didn’t know that Norway had a town named that also. 🤗
Is that a jackalope hanging out on the wall behind you ? 😅

I actually was informed that I can genuinely sing at least when it's in the sublime style lol thanks to a drunken karaoke endeavor

I find it ironic the mother of the twins is Irish..literal and figurative Irish twins
There is a Hell, Michigan also
4:43 Go stand in the corner! Go on!
I've heard of twins being born when the clocks changed so the one that came out first had a recorded time that was earlier than when the second one popped out.
you missed hell freezing over in Michigan. and drive from hell to pairadise in just under 5 hours in Michigan
Hawaii has a beach made frome the sand from 1 of my local beaches (Port Kembla beach)
Oh. I live in Rochester and didnt know that.
Earliest known version, known as The Landlord's Game, was designed by Elizabeth Magie and first patented in 1904.
I'm shook! Mike, Monopoly was invented by a woman.
"Who was the real inventor of Monopoly?
In fact, the rules to the game had been invented in Washington DC in 1903 by a bold, progressive woman named Elizabeth Magie. But her place in the game's folk history was lost for decades and ceded to the man who had picked it up at his friend's house: Charles Darrow."
Idk what to think...
this guys and his jokes cracks me up lol
Me too lol
was doing a word search puzzle, found an extra word. to date, is the LONGEST extra word, I've ever found!
the word was " RESTLESSLY"😲
Can a "Bee"falo recognize you ???
13F?! That's pretty warm for a low winter temp...
8:29 In fact ALL mamals have seven neck vertebrae giraffes to shrews. 🤓😎✌🏼
😊❤😊❤
❤😊
Your awesome
There’s a Hell, Michigan that freezes over annually too.
Merry Christmas Mike!
You did OK on the Scottish 🏴
There’s also a Hell, MI!
Cows can also have a best friend in a different species
