- The giant tortoise is best known for living for decades, being giant and probably not much else, so who would have thought it'd taste so delicious?

A group of pandas is called an Embarrassment of Pandas which is still funny to me
Yep. That list was definitely written by the crows.
I just watched a vid about Kea parrots - a circus of Kea. made me laugh
I feel like it was a misspelling or something.
They probably initially called it a Embracement of Pandas and somehow someone started calling it Embarrassment
@@JaggedEmpire1 a flock of crows is called a murder
I guess I’m a group of pandas.
"Impotent tortoise rage" is now how I will describe my mood from now on.
"Impotent Rage" is a character from GTA ...
“Impotent tortoise rage” is my finishing move
Big mood
@@antoniomargallo5317 *THROWS FAT BANANAS*
them catching the tortoises is depressingly funny...
where watching stupid people try to catch a alligator snapping turtle the opposite. They can reach around their back and bit your hand like bolt-cutters. Fast little bastards on land too
@@blackgriffinxx lol
@@blackgriffinxx hate when the tortoises attack
You never mentioned the best part of eating a tortoise, it comes with its own bowl
And you probably can also cook it in said bowl.
@@LadyNikitaShark imagine being cooked in the bowl and the fat *and* the water you provided... the disrespect O.o
@@calebdavis5428 no more than eating a chicken omelet
It can, in fact, be Cooked on it's own shell. A good way to know if the Tortoise is ready to be eaten is lightly tap on it's shell while on the fire and if it cracks, then you can begin to serve it.
Afterwards you can wash it and use it as an ashtray. Very versatile
Dont forget that it took them decades to bring a giant tortoise to the Royal Society in London to officially study it, because the sailors kept eating the specimen on the way. (blatantly stolen from a QI episode)
Great episode, that.
@@etovakala Aren't they all?
"A backpack full of impotent tortoise rage" is an incredible sentence
This is also what i found was a great wording
My favorite animal group names are for vultures, because they actually have three that depend on what they're doing at the time. If they're resting they're called a committee, if they're flying they're called a kettle, and if they're eating they're called a wake
Now this is my favorite animal group.
I liked to get it to 99 don’t like it anymore ppl
One of these names is not like the other. No seriously, kettle? Kettle!? Why Kettle? The fuck. These brits and their tea.
@@WLxMusic 'Cause if you look up and see vultures circling overhead, you're in hot water.
Karl, the Unkindness of Ravens is just the polite British version of a Murder of Crows.
Kinda
you mean canadian?
pretty much
Well there also is the term a Conspiracy of Ravens which makes some sense the Ravens plan the crows murder
what i hate is that ferret means little thief and a group of them isnt called a guild
Ferret Means: Little Thief, which makes the name Business even better
Ah, a PM Seymour Fan I see
It makes me think more of Ankh-Morpork's Thieves Guild
"Captain Britain"
Captain Britain's not a Captain America knockoff, he's a real Marvel character. His sister was Psylocke of the X-Men, I believe she's currently using the alias in the comics.
They're both very different, unique characters, despite having the Title of "Captain".
Glad I'm not the only one who caught that
Captain Midlands is a Captain America knock off though ;)
@@NecrochildK I loved that Excalibur was in charge of protecting the dimensional aspect of the Xmen universe. Like the writers knew the time lines and alternates were so out of control that they had to form a team to police it. Also Excalibur had Technet as villains/rivals, who I thought had some of the more creative character designs.
The one constant in the X Men universe is there's a Captain Britain in EVERY dimension.
Captain Britian was Brian Braddock, he and his sister Psylock (Elizabeth Braddock) were part of the superhero group Excalibur. Captain Britain was granted his powers by Merlin himself, and the one glaring weakness he has is the farther he is from Britain, the weaker he gets.
A backpack full of impotent tortoise rage ... that right there is an amazing combination of words
Now I want to make a tortoise ranch to bring tortoises back from being endangered.
As a Texan I fully support this endeavor!
And I want to domesticate a population of them so I can eat them
@@Akaryusan As a Texan, I fully support this
@@Akaryusan as a Texan I fully support this endeavor.
Honestly, breeding something for food is the best way to ensure the species survives.
When I heard him say Gorillas i thought he was gonna say because it's a band, like the band Gorillaz but no, government.
Do you think that’s why they called themselves Gorillaz? Because they’re a band? That would be so deep
@@jkzldn5316 that is definitely why
@@Cheesyboi that and the fact that both Damon and Jamie were born in the Chinese year of the monkey
A group of salamanders is a Congress
@@brytonwallis4817 An infestation
Does ten decades really sound better than a century?
ombre loup yes
@@JampaB no
No
ombre loup maybe.
Have you ever heard about the tragedy of Darth plagueis he wise. I thought not. It's a sith legend. Darth plagueis the wise was a sith lord who was so powerful he could influence the midichlorians to create life.
I could never take “an unkindness” for a group of ravens seriously.
i think your Nestle box in the corner is trying to get into another dimension
Basically tortoise is seasoning for other animals.
One Crow looks to another and the second one flies away...... there goes an attempted Murder
"Research is my passion." Asks other people to do the research. Well done. That's the American dream.
Me: What do you call a group of humans?
Mr.Popo: an “infestation”
I'm not going to look up what a group of sea stars is called, because if it's not a "constellation," I'll be thoroughly upset.
Or a galaxy.
@@rollochairbreaker230 naaaa .. 🙅🏿♂️
It actually is called either a constellation or a galaxy of starfish. So you can be happy knowing you were dead on the money, bro.
Here in the amazon we sometimes eat tortoise... and they are delicious, even more in yellow flower... best part is that you dont even need a pan, because you just use the hollow shell as one
Would love a video of animals that went extinct for dumb reasons like this
A group of bunnies is called a fluffle
Best description for a group is "an infestation"
- Mr Popo
(Tfs Dbza)
"Hand me something random" *guitar hero controller* careful what you ask for lol
When's someone going to hand him a paper towel? That'd be funn... y. Crap just thought of a way that might work. Now gotta go test.
@@turbopokey marshmallow might get him O.o
People have reaserched 'Roman ketchup' a condiment similar to Wostesher sauce, Also: a Congress of Baboons (or so I'm told)
Baboons are a troop. A troop of baboons.
The names for groups of animals are my favourites!! A group of flamingoes is a "Flamboyant"
4:10 I wonder if Gorillaz knew that before naming their band....
How about a group of geese on the ground is a gaggle but once they take off they become a skein of geese
9:36 lmao now that's a tea kettle laugh
I would’ve loved to eat half of these but that’s the problem.
Unkindness of Ravens is the Plentiful Glove of animal groups
"An unkindness of ravens"
I can only think of raven from rwby and it fits perfectly
Cue All Things Must Die
Murder
Unkindness
Conspiracy!
Is Raven the one with a sword that's just a knockoff of the Yamato from devil may cry?
She's yangs mom, her model is literally yang with black hair and red eyes
@@Pokecraftking wow. Talk about lazy.
And there you have RWBY. I seriously don't understand the appeal of what appears to be drawn using mspaint in a foreign sweat shop.
I remember the QI episode when they talked about this. One of the best episodes!
"What do you call a bunch of humans?"
"An infestation."
My favorites are the ones for mythological creatures. A group of wild dragons is called a thunder. And a group of unicorns is a blessing.
“Impotent tortoise rage” And “quiver of corbras” are now both my band name
A group of Crows is called a Murder, that is badass.
Our family's version of bread and dripping is made by taking the beef/lamb out of the oven halfway through cooking and rubbing bread in the roasting tin while the fat is still hot and liquid, it's pretty good then. Can't imagine how awful it would be with cold congealed fat
Gotta be honest, it really doesn't sound great either way, then again the only reason I have butter on my sandwiches is so the toppings won't fall off.
Parliament of Owls, makes me think of a group of Owls bobbing their heads to Funk Disco by Parliament.
My favorite is a conspiracy of lemurs because I just imagine a 1900s biologist slowly going mad in the jungles of Madagascar believing the lemurs are planning his demise.
3:37 my favourite quote..."a backpack full of impotent tortoise rage" I fucking howled at that!
"An unkindness of ravens"
*Karl turns into a steam train*
they also come with a free bowl as well! :P
I save the drippings for greasing the pan.
I use bacon fat when making green beans.
That last line before it cuts out, captain Britain is definitely an actual marvel character lol
A grumble of pugs is just perfect.
For remembering an unkindness of ravens just remember that one raven is a sign of bad luck so a whole flock of them is just plain mean.
I want to try all these things now lol all this made me so hungry
I always loved that a group of bunnies is a fluffle
I think I've reached Fact Fiend critical mass.
I was dreaming a little bit ago and got a phone call. The caller I.d. said "Karl Smallwood- London, UK " and I had a short conversation with you about how my video submission impression of Felix Unger from The Odd Couple was the best one you'd recieved.
2:11 “I’m gonna try haggis for the first time later today”
*Look of focused horror*
I've got a coworker who puts a slice of orange, processed American cheese on a honeybun (kinda like a cinnamon roll but mass produced with a slightly honey and cinnamon flavored glaze)
It is one of the few things I would never, ever put cheese on
A murder of crows, flamboyance of flamingos, conspiracy of lemurs, smack of jellyfish
Now, I don't think many people will get this... but my favorite word for a group of creatures is a haunting
A gaggle of geese, and a murder of crows. Those are my favorite names for groups of animals.
In south Germany we call it "Grieben Schmalz" and for this we purposely cut the skin of a hanging pig (or parts of it) and heat it untill the fat comes out... Together with a bit of salt and "Schnittlauch" this is my favorite bread smear
I just love how many different things he can use to open beer
I've always found "a crash of rhinos" a hilarious animal group name.
his eyes during, "a shadow of Jaguars", 8:49 , He's seen some S#^t
i kind of want to try that tortoise
I think they were supposed to bring the tortoise back to study but because they couldn't stop eating them, the tortoises weren't well/properly characterised for a long time. I can only imagine the conversation went something like 'you fucking ate them again?!' And then the sailors just shrugging and commenting on how delicious they are
After Game of Thrones, it seems we would now have a "vision" ravens.
Okay i discovered this a while back from a tumblur post, but the word ferret was derived from the Latin word furritus which means "Little Thief" so that means that a huge opportunity to call a group f ferrets a guild has been squandered.
I use bacon fat to make roux it’s the best, just add equal part flower and cook till chocolate brown
I use it when making green beans. Just toss in a spoonful for each cans worth of beans and it gives them a great flavor.
A creep of tortoises.....now that's just pure gold.
A nightmare of coconut crabs
My favourite is a flange of baboons. It was made up for a TV show but still so good
They even come with their own soup bowl.
Could you imagine walking in the Galapagos and hearing 2 tortoises fucking, and you immediately thing it's a velociraptor.
The "Oh No" eyes. 4:56
I think that they failed to find the best one. A group of bunnies is called a "Fluffle".
"Captain Britain"
Me in 2020: lol
Me in after 'What If?' trailer: 2021 really is the weirdest timeline
Hahaha Bottom left there is a box of nestle cereal
My favourite is that a group of weasels is called a boogle. A boogle of weasels
Man... turtles and tortoises are my favorite animals. Turns out, they are the perfect animal to eat. Not just in terms of taste and edibility, but also in storage advantages. I'm hurt, and curious by how they taste.
We should be farming these.
It is the amount of time to get them to a good harvest size that limits it. To farm or ranch them you need an area without a lot of ground predators so limits you to islands for the most part and you need to be able to get in and collect the eggs to hatch them where rats can't get to them.
Damn Forget the impossible burgers I want a tortoise burger. Give me that slow fast food
The unkindness of ravens is like the Walmart version of a Murder of Crows just brand it Great Value Unkindness of Ravens.
A flock of seagulls 😂
Remember when you talked about the huntsman spider and how scary they are, well they are in Minnesota, U.S and they are dosial (for the most part)
My favorite is a grumble of pugs. Pugs are already cute enough but calling a group of them a grumble... Eeeeeeeeeeee
I learn more about stuff in this video than my elementary school class about animals that are Long gone or endangered
I don't think it was ever answered in the video, but a group of tortoises is called a "creep".
This man is my spirit animal a true alcoholic 😂
Some of my favourites groups for animals are and not limited to a flink of cows, an army of frogs and a crash of rhinos
It almost hurts to here people talk about not liking fat. It's the one macronutrient that won't kill you if you ate it exclusively, it's the one truly healthy source of energy, that unlike protein, you can't overdo.
I keep bacon fat but not for eating, you keep it for frying things in, use it instead of butter or oil when you make eggs
The NTNOCN changing Group Noun if Gorillas to Flange story is funny
Play the intro at 0,5x times speed, karl is now very very drunk.
my favourite term for a group of animals is a grumble of pugs
A fluffle of bunnies is my favorite
A group of bunnies is a fluffle.
Chips, cheese and curry sauce is bomb and your all missing out
quality owl humor karl love it
I love how chibi Karl's eyes went when he discovered its a destruction of wildcats.
My Grandmother would collect the drippings from the tray below the broiled steak, and pour it over the meat before serving. She called it "Juice". They family dog had the greese from every family meal dumped over its dog food before serving. She called it "Flavor". Pour animal swelled up, and just fell over dead one day. I would request my steak, without juice, Please.
Group of jellyfish: bloom. It is because they generally occur in certain times of year like seasonal flowers do.
