This clip is from QI XL Series N, Episode 10, 'Nature/Nurture' with Sandi Toksvig, Alan Davies, David Baddiel, Cariad Lloyd and Ross Noble.
Of course, this arrives on the one time I tell myself "I'll just watch this QI clip while enjoying dinner"
And then spend ages looking for a clip you've not seen while your food gets cold
How fast do you eat🤨?
@@peter-johndamonse5035 As G G noted, eating time meant multiple clips. My food was still warm though ^^'
I think you know it might be something like this.
Right with you there buddy, feeling it.
"It lives up a hippopotamus' bottom."
Ah, in the hippobottomus.
Ba-dumTISH!
I got a genuine chuckle out of that
ha...haha. clever fox.
@@DickHolman Da-bum-tish
@@GCAbleism158 Da-bum-SWISH!
(Given that bulls use the tail as a rotary spreader for territory marking).
:)
That national geographic employee needs a raise. My god lol
As a professional writer myself, I tip my hat to him. That was brilliant.
They may be consumate flyers
but in light of that particualr snippet
if it turns out reincarnation is true
damned if I'll volunteer to come back as a Ruppelle Vulture
(Or, worse, a hipo's arse leech)
I'll bet he can write a hell of a lymric too
I think they call them "writers"
The World is such a beautiful and wondrous place.
I'm a little disappointed they didn't have a video of a hippo giving the ol' 21 gun salute
There are things even QI won't show...
and it escalates more and more as you are eat your dinner.
host: "if they continue to eat ,lets show them this picture! still eating? go! now! show the video! still eating?.... show the other video...of a hippo exploding into another hippos mouth! THEY CONTINUE TO EAT?....put the president of every country on the line. this video is still illegal to show in 29 countries. may god have mercy on your soul for what you are about to witness. (host covers eyes and put on earplugs)
I was pleasantly surprised they didn't
Nooooo!!! Please, just don't! Lol
the youtube search bar is right there. :)
I would think the koala would be the pickiest eater. It will only eat eucalyptus leaves and only if they're still on the tree. If you take them off the tree and try to give it to them, they will refuse them.

Sorry :)
It's a wonder if they notice, considering they're permanently stoned, mate
I initially thought panda. It just chills eating bamboo shoots all day 🤷♂️
There’s a bunch of facts I could have happily died not knowing.
Was at Whipsnade Zoo several years ago and was warned by the keeper that they had just cleaned the hippos' water.
The animals don't like clean water so are more likely to defecate a lot and keeps were worried they would spray the public.
"Deep Carcass Dive" needs to be a metal band. Stat.
When the Hippo said to the Vulture "You can kiss my arse", he didn't know the vulture would get quite so carried away!!
Added to the list of QI answers I did NOT expect...
Before watching this, I'm going with eucalyptus leaves, which is the only thing koalas eat.
In fairness, eucalyptus leaves probably taste like ass anyway.
I was thinking pandas and bamboo. That went sideways.
Funny thing about koalas eating eucalyptus. Their young don't have the tolerance for the poisonous eucalyptus, so they build up their tolerance by licking up their parent's fecal discharge. Other funny thing is that koalas don't have anuses; they secrete shit-like juices out their skin, in a certain area.
Who would've thought a documentary about koalas could've gone so wrong, so fast.
@@OldNew45 the "tolerance" is bacteria to process the toxins in the eucalyptus.
They do produce faeces, they need to get rid of the indigestible parts of the leaves (cellulose) and other waste products (eg red blood cells, the reason most animal's faeces is brown).
Males have a patch of skin on the chest where they secrete scent
Never again, I'll eat my cereal while watching QI.
Well, that would have made an interesting 4th verse for Flanders & Swann....
Gosh those hippopotami are almost as heavy as a 97 horsepower omnibus.
@@pjay3028 You made me laugh so much I nearly spilled my madeira m'dear.
@@decodolly1535 at least you didn't get flutter on your bottom!
How terribly......house & garden of you all.
Well this was the right clip to watch while eating.
My first reaction was amazement, wondering how did I made it to 4chan pages while still on TH-cam. My second reaction was yet even bigger shock, realizing that I'm still on the QI channel...
i think we now know why hippos are known for having such bad attitudes.
Hippo-roids.
"What crawled up your ar*e?!"
"Well, it's a kind of leech......"
@@Karajorma 😄😄😄
and that little tail spins like an over-revved propeller!!
Carissa is so gorgeous in every way, even when acting out the story! lol.❤
Koalas are also incredibly fussy eaters. They only eat eucalyptus leaves and most only eat leaves from specific trees, at that.
And koalas are so (literally) smooth-brained that they are unable to recognize eucalyptus leaves as food if they have been removed from the tree beforehand.
@@shartsmcginty8056 well in the same way some animals aren't able to eat meat that's not moving
To try and give a decent estimate for Alan's sake, if we said the average person weighs about 80kg and a hippo weighs 3,000kg, that would mean the hippo weighed about as much as 37 people.
1300 - 1800kg average weight as per first Google response.
6 Americans
Or, 1/10th of a blue whale?
Blue whale weight 50,000 - 150000kg.
@@hhiippiittyy The average female weighs around 3,000 lbs. (1,400 kilograms), while males weigh 3,500 to 9,920 lbs. (1,600 to 4,500 kg), according to the San Diego Zoo
First google result
4 minutes ago, I was happily expecting the answer to be the Koala and its incessant desire for eucalyptus leaves. I am no longer happy.
"oh the worlds fussiest eater, this'll be a good one to eat my very messy burger while watching"
....
Don't think I could put on a pair of gloves again without envisioning a vulture's head executing a deep carcass dive!
My first thought was silk worms. They only eat fresh mulberry leaves.
Koalas are picky too. Not only do they only eat eucalyptus leaves, they will only eat them off a branch. If you present a koala eucalyptus leaves in a bowl, it won't recognize it as food.
@@bretterry8356 koalas aren't picky. They're just stupid!
@@catatonicbug7522 They can be both.
@@bretterry8356 That might be because there are no bowls in nature. Koalas want their food right from the source.
it's even more specifically the leaves of the white (!) mulberry tree.
Welp, that was the wrong thing to watch on my lunch break
3:00 sounds like Cannibal Corpse lyrics
I chose an interesting QI video to watch over lunch.
Whoa! National Geographic appear to have employed a new team of writers, possibly former ghost writers for Barbara Cartland? 😬✌🏻
I was so sure it was Koalas only eating eucalyptus. That would've sounded the horn I guess
I'm so pleased I haven't had my lunch yet. Thank you for sharing 🤢💐
Come to south africa and see them in the wild
No thanks, having them on the next continent is a safe distance, thank you very much.
:)
That will teach me motto eat during a Qi video.
I'm just surprised that the answer wasn't about my late dad! I loved him dearly, but he was the pickiest eater on the planet.
"Have you been speaking with my husband?"
🍽 😋 And now ... Let’s watch QI as we have dinner
"like a hand in a velvet glove" : Bon Scott 1979.
2:46 Until it is done
There are so many animals that could have been the answer. If you want a human parasite, one exists that only exists on our eyelashes and feeds on dead skincells, and if you want a nice example a panda bear and koala are it.
My first thought was koala, but although their diet is almost exclusively eucalyptus leaves, they regularly eat about 30 species.
Although there is a parasitic nematode which lives exclusively in the lungs of koalas - durikainema phascolarcti.
Neither Koala or Pandas are as fussy as you are lead to believe and both eat more than just their sterotypical diets.
Pandas eat meat as well as bamboo.
0:54 "The best place to hang out." hahahahaha
Ross's first comment was very interesting because I found out about atlas moths not long ago. Thought it would have been the right answer.
Definitely the clip I regret eating during.
Deep carcass dive is my new band name.
Why am I watching this while eating breakfast!?
At least they can metabolize that stuff. The Giant Panda only eats bamboo, but their bodies aren't designed to digest it so they don't get a lot of nutrition out of it, so they have to eat lots of it a day.
I was just gonna take a short break from work but now I whish I didn't 😄
There's a video of a Hippo exploding his waste everywhere and it's very funny 😂
Eh? Where?
@@wordreet The internet.
@@TheNotoriousDUDE Ah, yes, prolly.
Cariad just keeps on getting more GORGEOUS every time I see her 😍
I need to upgrade my glasses, I read that title slightly differently.
And I thought I had a bad job...
I was having a warm pain au chocolat when she started describing this whole clip 🤢
Best clip to lose weight with! hungry? no more.
That couls, and should, have been a lot more graphical. Still... +1
I love this show. But also hate it for making me have an internal debate on whether it is wise to look for a hippo taking a poo.
A two y/o contemplating their first plate of porridge.
What a lovely ending to this short. I shall cherish it and my nightmares will be ever so more exciting 😂
Hey! I eating here!
I may never eat again.
yea that was crazy! im scared to click another QI video while i eat now.
That was horrifying!
I want to know who discovered it and why🥴
I've read that koalas will starve to death even with other vegetation available, if there are no eucalyptus leaves to eat. Is that true?
They are Aussies, who would rather die of thirst rather than drink certain brands of their xxxx, err, beers.
Supposedly, if you pull the leaves off of a eucalyptus branch, a koala will no longer recognize them as food, so it could probably starve to death that way too.
...I'm normally reluctant to label animals as "dumb," on the grounds that they have to adapt to totally different living conditions from ours. But for koalas, I make an exception.
The world's fussiest meow meow.
Yummmy spaghetti
"Like an arm in an evening glove up the intestinal tract" I'm certain I've seen that on xtube
Before: If I die in the desert, a vulture will eat me!
Now: If I die in the dessert, a vulture will stick its head up my bum.
Surely it will go for the dessert first.
oh, my, gosh
Rice and dahl
Thinking about the way in which a hippo "spells relief" reminds me of Donald Trump's media strategy: FLOODING the ZONE with EXCREMENT!
If anyone is sceptical, there is a fantastic video of a hippo pooing on youtube.
"A" fantastic video? There are lots of them! (TH-camrs are weird)
@@decodolly1535 I was keeping it subtle so people are unprepared for the whole hippo fart/poop youtube rabbithole ;)
@@kek23k I've been down that rabbithole - I ended up at a zoo keeper manually pulling a turd out the backside of an elephant! I don't see why anyone else should be spared! 😉
I'd like to know what they were doing to find that out 😂
I have a mate in Africa who actually has a “pet “ hippo, rescued as a youngster, it goes into the house and plays with the dog. I must ask him how he worms it and is it house trained! I fear the reply!
And ask him why are all the walls brown in the house.
Koalas are pretty fussy, eating nothing but eucalyptus leaves.
Every toddler?!
Now I have to look up a video of a hippo taking a dump....
I'm surprised YT didn't recommend the massive hippo fart in the suggestions
My first guess was the Koala. They only eat one thing.
Just for anyone thinking of watching this while having a nibble: Don't.
Eating toast and watching this not a perfect combination
If your interested in Hippo's bowel movements, look up the Oppih by Zefrank. Guarantee, you will not be disappointed.
I picked panda.
They only eat one type of bamboo
I thought it said “Funniest Eater”
Same
To be fair, it is kinda funny
That too. Although the vultures are giving the leeches a run for their money in the funniest eater department.
@@daddymuggle True. But look for a video of a hippopotamus pooping. It will give you a new mind image of "the shit hitting the fan"
I would have guessed the giant panda, they dont have the stomach for bamboo and chose to eat only that..
That must be why I ain’t got hair on my arms 😂😂
TMI from Cariad.
But that's why we love her!
Earlier in this episode she said "I'm a very gassy girl." :)
I want to be sick. Suddenly I am afraid to.😱
I’m here to say beans
Panda or Koala Bear 0:19
Pedantic note: A giant panda is a bear. A koala is not.
@@clickrick Killer whales are actually dolphins but everyone knows what I'm talking about if I don't just say Orca. Sometime the popular name gets the point across better than the scientific one
For those who read the comments before watching the video. Don’t start eating at the start of this video.
Well, that was... uhm, graphic?
Koalas only eat one thing as well
Attention
Wouldn't the Koala be fussier? I mean it won't even eat leaves off a plate, it will only eat them off a branch. Granted, it's due to their own stupidity but still.
I would imagine it eats fuss
Each hippo kills an average of 0.2 people in their life.
Um, Koalas?
If a hippo weighed 3000Kg, then the 150 people would have to have an average weight of 20Kg.... even if it was 50 people it would be 60Kg
I was eating...
Shucks when I got on I was first to get to the video. Got so engrossed in watching that forgot to boast about being first. Amazing fact I wish it was fry reading this n sit back n Njoi the outburst from Alan
this show is not the same without Fry...
Well- THAT was unpleasant!
So how was that the answer to the question "what does the world's fussiest eater eat?" The leech eats hippo blood. Eating blood doesn't make one a fussy eater. Many animals eat blood, and many animals it just blood.
Yes, but eating blood from inside a hippos backside is very niche.
I used to think all knowledge was valuable, but not any more.
