Thing is, the statistic is technically true; it’s just that there is one guy somewhere who eats a bowl of spiders every morning for breakfast, and he ruins the average for everyone.
I mean he’s have to eat like 100 billion spiders a year or something
.... Spiderman?
"in their sleep" and the number will be TINYY as an average.

To everyone who has replied to this comment to disapprove it :- don't believe just any claim on the internet guys .This video just said that exact thing.
I eat over a billion spiders every year to single handedly raise our countries average.

The best thing about this is that all of us as viewers take his words in this video to be the truth, just because _we_ can’t be bothered to do research on our own either.
If Lemmino made up every single thing in this video, none of us would even know or notice it without extensive research ourselves. And yet almost no one in the comment sections even considers it a possibility - we just go along with everything he says.
It’s the perfect meta video

That's true. But 99.9999% of us aren't actually going to do anything with the information anyway, so it doesn't matter. The few who might know to do the research themselves. You would think...
to be fair, we can't really search for the absolute truth in everything since that would require a lifetime for any individual, we also can't become a paranoid cynical and start to believe that everything is wrong. We are stuck to believing whatever we don't care a bout and only doubting what is closest to us
"No one in the comment section considers it a possibility"
Me glancing up right above your comment to see someone else mentioning it. Awkward.
Top comment is litteraly saying what you said, but was posted 1.6 years before you lol
Snopes has now, 20 years later, confirmed that it was indeed "a big troll". A link to it can be found on the original article.
Checked this for myself in the spirit of this video, and indeed, it was a big troll.
An article linked on that site, called “False Authority” is a good read as well and may go to show how we all are not willing to fully fact check the information in front of us, even when purporting that the audience should be skeptical of authoritative assertions, lest there is proper incentive. Made clear by my willingness to scroll by other articles linked because I don’t want to spend my time fact-checking those things, which I think is okay. It’s when one takes the ‘facts’ they come across with links(or not) for truth without finding sources for the info, their sources and so on until you witness undeniable evidence, a primary source for yourself, or scientific proof that is a fault. Trust yourself and no one else. We are often sly creatures that garner credibility(for our own social comfort) and slip in misinformation when the time is right.
I can't be bothered to validate this simple fact but I'll gladly lift the information to everyone I know assuming it is accurate.

let me guess (probs not true but anyway) you came here because of dream drama and the music they used and you found this channel and it is the most interesting channel ever and you are watching all these videos
@@ardnys35 that is indeed what happened lol
The best thing is that we cannot actually prove this video right unless we literally make what he did. It could perfectly be another hoax.
I'm at a point where I realize that proving something right is not possibly at all, since there is no objective 'right' . So yes, we could try prove his video is wrong - but we cannot prove that it is right. The process of proving something wrong is called falsification and it works by bringing statements into contradiction with other statements and/or measurements.
And this is what the Internet is really good for, since a falsification does not require any credibility by the falsifier. You can read it, check the given sources and there you go.
Accepting that changed my worldview to a great extent, e.g. about history and such things.
You saying "another hoax" make this video trustworthy and thereby, not a hoax.
@@Megasterik That could be possible if the video was either entirely right or entirely wrong. It can hold some truth inside, while still being a hoax.
@@oom-3262 The simple logic is that if the hoax presented in the video are actual hoaxes then the video cannot be a hoax and if the video a is hoax, then the hoax presented in it cannot be a hoax since video can only be a hoax if it's content are not a hoax given that the video's premise was about the hoax. If person A says that person B is lying then person C saying "person A could be lying as well" doesn't make sense because logically, only one of them can be lying despite even if either of their sentences holds some truth in them. Hence, saying "another hoax" doesn't make sense.
Video can't be a hoax if it hold truth in it although the parts of the video which are hoax will surely be a hoax.
1) If you say a hoax could contain truth in it but still remains a hoax: If Snopes actually did an article as a hoax, will you say the article is a hoax or Snopes as a whole is a hoax even if Snopes have other truthful articles?
2) If you say a hoax could contain truth in it and because of that truth, it cannot be a hoax: The hoax shown in the video did hold some truth in it, the anagram in the name "LISA BIRGIT HOLST" was an anagram for "THIS IS A BIG TROLL" could be considered as a truth in the hoax itself and the hoax shouldn't actually be considered as a hoax. Coincidentally, it would make the video a hoax in a manner and in this case as well, "another hoax" would be illogical.
One thing that can be proven is the existence of other videos and articles on the topic, such as "The Search for Lisa Holst" by CGP Grey

“Spiders are not insects, they’re Arthropods”
Correction; Spiders are arachnids. Both arachnids and insects are considered arthropods.
Michael Scott slams table - "THANK YOU!"
@Rectangle boi Wow it really is there. The man corrects himself !
Rai Rashmi now i’m not challenging what you are saying but i’m just asking or clarifying.
In the phylum ‘arthropoda’ there are 4 sub divisions. I’ll only discuss two here, Chelicerate governing spiders or arachnids among others.
The other being hexapoda governing insects among others.
So is it incorrect to say: Whilst Spiders and Insects are both considered arthropods an insect is not an arachnid and vice versa?
Edit: so essentially he did not have to correct himself here. As he is not false in proclaiming spiders are arthropods
Someone didn't read the description~
Rai Rashmi Right, so you recognise it wasn’t incorrect just not as accurate as it could have been.

he said without giving one example
@@enclave2k1 Of course. I'm a journalist..........
I could. As I said before, there's a lot of examples out there. But given the already argumentative way you just replied; I'd have to assume you disagree that news has devolved into propagandistic, rhetoric-filled nonsense that is largely circularly researched and has lost any interest in what the "truth" may be. If that's the case, then nothing I say will change your mind. I don't claim to know "the truth". I even admit to the "rabbit hole nature" of investigating this stuff.
I CAN, however, claim that "the news doesn't report on all the facts and let the reader or viewer draw their own conclusions". Instead, opting to repeat what someone on twitter said or what a website posted or whatever the "narrative du jour" might be. It's pretty obvious with even the basest of google searches. I would absolutely LOVE to bring these things to light.....
However, I really don't think any examples I give would accepted by you as evidence and you simply replied as a way to get in to it with me. You want me to give examples so you can make remarks implying you know so much more than anyone else and how silly I am to doubt the press. Your reply comes across this way.......as someone who's just trying to be argumentative and if so, I'm not taking your bait. If it's not the case, then you need to work on your communication skills because, frankly, you come across like a prick.
If you really care about examples, then simply start researching the headlines you read. Start looking at sources. Do some research, actual research (as in checking out what is being said on BOTH sides and investigating the info each side has). It's not my place to tell you how to think.
And BTW, did the thought ever cross your mind that I left examples off because I want him to cover what he wants? That I recognize that a news story I find interesting may not be the same one HE does? Again, likely not. You don't strike me as particularly contemplative.
In any case, say what you will. I'm done. Enjoy your bliss and the source you get it from.

@@richardmorris8902 Well yeah, news corporations are inherently reliant upon the capitalist system, and will do/say anything to uphold it. Their revenue sources are advertisers, who in turn take money from corporations, who take money from their workers. They don't exist in some intellectual vaccumn, they have material reasons to say one thing and do another.
@@boozecruiser The fact you just devolved a topic as broad as "poor media coverage" in to "bad capitalism" shows how little thought you actually put in things and how little you actually research. Your entire comment implies that if media wasn't "capitalist", it would tell the truth...and that is hilariously deluded.
4:36 I see what you did there lmao.

Kappa Thanks m8 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
What if this entire video is HIM trolling us and how we'll go tell people that this myth is fake when in reality the audience hasn't done the sole thing he preaches: to check the sources. What if HES testing how gullible the internet is by lying to us about the whole operation and his one hint was "This is a big troll". What if he's the troll? Why That would be... genius
Dingus Productions that's what I've though too!
Dingus Productions go fact check it then. I can't be fucked
check the facts yourself. It's the only way be sure
He is ;)
He said abraham linc. said that everything you read on the internet is true.... well the internet didnt fucking exist obviously he's trolling
Man I like your sense of humor!
This is one of the best videos on this website
really miss your weekly top 10 facts
martijn yea, but what are we going to do. he is pretty much expanding his research to make more accurate information for us, in which I like 😄
martijn check his Chanel, there is a vid he explains the proces of making his video's its a long proces ( Dont get me wrong i would love to hear this voice and these facts every week but it is to hard for him) ps i think its the vid 1.000.000 subcribers Q & A
Tim Vdv Yeah i know i saw the video and understand why he doesnt make them weekly anymore but i just really miss then =)
martijn me to haha, he does his reachers thoroughly ( im dutch Dont know the exact good word) and his voice is godlike just like morganfreeman his voice
quality over quantity
"Abraham Lincoln once said that, 'If you've seen it on the Internet then it must be true.'"
nice one
Nobody talks about how the video starts with a false statement, basically proving that anything can be said to be true while it can be completely random and fictional. The way the video starts and ends creates a circle alike the one that's described in the very same video. Brilliant.
Love it!! Brilliant!
Yo the editing is so sexy.. It pleases me to see a youtube who knows design and good transitions.
The transition at 2:23 really got me
This is a big troll. (can we make this a meme for this channel?)
G lets make it happen
back in da days, this channel was Top10memes
G hell yeah
ken chang yah you're right it was called that
OH, I MEMBER!!!
I missed the bulk of this video, cooking as I was watching it, but I did never fail to catch the part where you dissed the Danes.
I appreciate your thoroughness! I'd always just assumed it as all made up for one of those stupid email chains people used to send all the time.
never clicked a video so fast in my life, wasnt the top 10s but o well
KillaZae same
KillaZae *never
*wasen't
Sheer Heart Attack Wasn't* :D

Staffaynu so with your sorry TH-cam get a life
Gamer Boy what?
more like ILLEMMINOti confirmed
this is art. amazing video
Man, you put a lot of work into your videos
You run into this more than you’d like when getting citations. I’ve found articles citing each other. And your just kinda at a loss at that point.
but that means that somebody went and edited their post to troll someone........... :(
@@8stormy5 Not to mention wikipedias rules of trusted sources is highly arbitrary. Secondary and tertiary sources are considered more reliable than primary.
LMAO I once found a published article citing Wikipedia. I'm not sure if it was a joke or they let it slip.
Certainly an article can't cite another article that hasn't yet been written... And one must come before the other, right?
Never thought I can relate to that.
"If it's on the internet it must be true. -Abe Lincolin. But there was no internet in his ti... Ohhh i see what you did there
I still don't get it...
xDD
Aadi Ram
Please explain this to me!!! D:
its a troll it says everything is true on the internet when really its not
Because not only Abraham Lincolin didn't say it, and not only is the statement wrong, but there wasn't even internet in Abe Lincolin's time. It's not rocket science.
Great job, Lemmino! The ultimate great debunker!
I finally know that you got the idea of the lost colony video from your ask reddit thread
