Fun fact: spinach has since been shown to have some oddly cool properties that promote muscle growth. It contains Ecdysterone, a plant based steroid. Out of all the foods, it has the highest bioavilability (though still way too low to count as steroids). So even though the pop-eye thing was wrong, it still had an element of truth we didnt discover till 2015!
That is the rule, I had gone a good few years before this mention, I made my partner lose 'the game' too, because you have to announce that you've lost when you think of it.
A ballin' episode of The Casual Criminalist AND the return of my favorite series on my favorite channel? Tell me the truth, Simon. Did I die and get sent to my own personal heaven?
When I was five years old, my Mother and a couple of her friends decided clean up and to plant some flowers in the town square. I found a baby bird that had fallen out of a nest and climbed the tree to put it back. My Mother told me that evil Myth about parents rejecting the baby. I burst into tears and walked the three miles home. (Back in the olden days, kids were allowed to wander miles from home, just watch the Andy Griffith Show, Opie wandered around town when he was five). A neighbor driving by asked if I wanted a ride, I told him about it and he explained that it was an old wives tale. He asked me if I ever played with our baby chicks, goslings or ducklings. If course I had, and their Mothers took them back.
There are three commonly reported rules to The Game Everyone in the world is playing The Game. (This is alternatively expressed as, "Everybody in the world who knows about The Game is playing The Game" or "You are always playing The Game.") A person cannot refuse to play The Game; it does not require consent to play and one can never stop playing. Whenever one thinks about The Game, one loses. Losses must be announced. This can be verbally, with a phrase such as "I just lost The Game", or in any other way: for example, via Facebook. Some people may have ways to remind others of The Game.
When I was a kid, I was told that I was a picky eater because I hated veggies boiled to mush. Then I stayed overnight at a friend's house. His Mother served a raw spinach salad with feta cheese. Yuck!!! I decided to do my best and to choke it down without gagging. Shocked to discover raw spinach tasted great! I eat all the veggies I hated as a kid, and like them, but never, ever, EVER boiled to death. Except green beans, still gag on them.
Same here in Ireland i was always the fussy eater. 'Flowery' potatoes are considered best. To me they are dry horrible balls of crap. And I awlways got into trouble for not eating them. Fast fwd to adulthood I refuse still to eat dry spuds and find out that Dry potatoes are actually inferior! Same with veggies always boiled to bits .... met my Spanish wife and she knows how to cook and nowby far the most adventurous eater in my family.
I think forcing kids to eat things they don’t want is counter Productive. Usually it’s the result of the cook being a bad cook. My mom was a great cook so I loved all foods.
The story of the birds defending their nest from a snake reminds me of my adolescence, when a pair of blue jays built a nest in our neighbor's grape arbor. Jays, if you don't know, can be very aggressive towards potential threats like hawks, owls, or cats. Our cat Chico learned this the hard way. That nesting season, whenever we let Chico out into the yard, the jays would dive-bomb him while loudly scolding him. It got so when we opened the door to let Chico out, he'd very nervously check the skies before dashing across the lawn and into his safe haven, the garage. RIP Chico!
I saw a cocker spaniel catch one by accident. Every time I opened the door Cindy would dart and run after the blue jays. One day I heard a commotion in the back yard and saw Cindy pawing at something and the jays other jays dive bombing her. Cindy lost that day.
Some people think Sam is paid with money, also not true, he's paid in stale Magic Spoon that Simon managed to finish off. If his memes are particularly on point he even gets milk with it.
if anyone who doesn’t know an unnecessary amount of info about planes (i just think they’re neat!), ETOPS actually stands for Extended-range Twin-engine Operational Performance Standards. finally i am useful for something
The other bacronym I’ve heard applied to ETOPS is Eventually There’s Only a Plopping Sound. The Twin-Engine part is the key, up until the late 1980’s, regulations forbade twin-engine aircraft from being planned to operate further than 60 minutes flying time away from a suitable airfield, meaning that transatlantic flights were exclusively the preserve of 3 and 4 engine aircraft. Eventually some bright spark realised that flying coast-to-coast in the US is essentially equivalent to an Atlantic crossing and that there was therefore a wealth of data to prove that operating on two engines over the Atlantic was perfectly safe (subject to somewhat more rigorous flight planning rules). Now most twin-engine aircraft are certified to operate up to 180 minutes flight time from the nearest diversion field and the Airbus A350 can operate up to 370 minutes away, meaning that basically the entire Earth’s surface is covered.

6:10 - Chapter 1 - Bird reject their chick if touched by human hands 10:00 - Mid roll ads 12:45 - Chapter 2 - SOS is an acronym 17:15 - Chapter 3 - Spinach makes you strong like popeye
Every veteran knows that SOS is an acronym for "shit on a shingle" aka creamed chipped beef on toast. Signal Corps men would use semaphore flags to signal "SOS" to warn the camp to stay away from the mess hall when it was being served. Navy veterans in merchant sea service carried it over as a general signal of distress. And the rest, as they say, is history.
The Kinsey's questions and data gathering were suspect, for starters. "Thinking about sex" meant taking time out of your day to actively fantasize about getting busy, possibly leading to arousal, but not resulting in 'finishing'. The Kinsey's work has been criticized for some time, least of which was their refusal to factor western cultural/religious values in their conclusions about human sex drive.
Danny deserves a bonus for this or maybe an hour or two out of the basement (because we know for a fact that's where you keep him locked away😄). Funniest thing I ever watched at 5 am 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Crows and ravens will also pick up baby birds out of the nest, carry them to the nearest concrete or hard surface, and drop them from really high in the air sometimes multiple times until it’s dead. They also do that with baby rabbits. Pre-tenderized meat
6:08 When we moved to this apartment mid summer last year we had seen a nest in a bush by our front door. My moms bf was helping paint and the kids noticed a chick on the ground. He scooped it up and put it back. I told him not to cuz usually, from what I have seen, birds will destroy their offspring if they don’t see them thriving. Anyway literally 2 minutes after placing the chick back and seeing a second much bigger chick in the nest, the mama comes home and literally starts tearing the nest apart so we yelled at it and she flew across the street to a tree and kept an eye on us. It was fairly late in the day and after a while the mom flew away. The next day we heard some noises from the bush and see no mom all day so we started feeding them worms and shit til finally my daughter and my dads friend got together and researched how to raise baby birds. They wound up bundling the chicks up in a towel and put them in a paper bag in our garage as a makeshift nest and used a needleless syringe to squirt watered down dog food down their throats. A few days later the chick that started it all passed away and another day or two after that the other one did :( the kids were devastated and they wanted me to bury them but our yard is a swamp so I wrapped them tightly up and threw them in the dumpster cuz I wasn’t going to walk half a mile to the park and bury them there. All this to say I do think there is something to be said about this myth. We also had a crow drop a halfway cracked open egg with a crow chick in it from about 30feet in the air into our pool one day when I was a young teen (around the turn of the century). We were all swimming and the splash startled us but Dad had seen it and had us get out of the pool, removed the body and shocked the pool cuz he said the bird prolly dropped it because it was diseased or something. My point is birds probably realize when their chicks are failing to thrive or sick and want them out of their nests, causing a sympathetic human to notice and without wondering why it got there and assuming it fell, to “save” the little birdy just for the parents to come back and say fuck it I can’t do this now cuz you are gonna get my other chick sick too or something like that.
No birds, but I had a cat who had her first and only litter of 3 kittens. Four hours later, mom cat had relocated with two of the kittens. I found the third kitten at the first site and returned the "forgotten" kitten to the family. Two hours later, the "forgotten" kitten was outside the family again, this time dead. Two days later, another kitten died. A trip to the vet & it turned out that mom cat and remaining kitten had an intestinal tract infection. With medication, the mother cat lived, but the third kitten was too sick and died. So Nugboy, I quite agree that animals realize failing to thrive or sick offspring.
@@crabwalk7773 my wife’s uncle had the same going on when they were attempting to breed their huskies too. My wife decided to isolate the runt with the mom as much as she could and the mom actually nursed it back to Health… Very sad for your cat to have lost the whole litter that’s crazy, tho I’m surprised that she only had three kittens, wayyyy back in like 97 our cat had a litter of like 7 then a litter of 8 the next year. Though luckily they all thrived and we had a free kitty rehoming party both times after we chose the best one for us to keep. Animals are smarter than us sometimes lol. The kittens in your case may have sensed something spreading and decided to try to save the ones she could or something. I’m super sensitive in the moment so I would have done the same thing, but knowing what I do now I wouldn’t have. Thanks for the story tho it was very interesting and also kinda proved my point in a way. :)
To think some of us (me included) almost gave up on Brain Blaze and Simon all because he wanted to *_blaze while sitting_* - I for one apologize and glad Simon has 1.2 quadrillion-pentillian other channels to satiate my Unrestrained Blaze Craze
There's a book called "hot sex" in the common kitchen at my dorm, and the writer wrote the 7-second thing. When we were looking through it, one of us guys would say, "have you remembered to think about sex" pretty often as a joke. The entire book sounded like the writer was going through an ugly divorce and had taken a dislike to guys. We constantly made fun of it and still do because of how dumb it is. But if you need another synonym for sex, "horizontal mambo" is one I like. Partially because it's a song by "Here Come The Mummies" and that it's just funny
Danny's euphemisms reminds me of the end credit roll of the movie 'Grumpy Old Men' Lol. BTW Simon, I think thinking about "polls" counts as once per day.😂
While I will admit I miss the long form, Simon standing and rambling vids. These shorter vids are still funny as fuck and perfect for the drive to work.
I LOL'd so much at the Saltwater crocodile joke. I'm an Aussie and have rescued many baby birds, never from a Croc but several from blue tongue and shingleback lizards. Edit, and I live in the tropical North where I wouldn't dream of swimming in a river or at a beach because of the very real Salties, Saltwater Crocs here.
Sam, the little red bird one? awesome! :D also, bookmark that one you used for Simon walking away... even though he sits down these days... if he does get up to do 'something' stick that sound effect in again! that was HILARIOUS! :D
I like spinach too! Then again as a kid I liked : brussel sprouts, broccoli, alfalfa sprouts, bamboo shots, smoked oysters, mushrooms, cottage cheese and tomatoes. I'd eat damn near anything. 😆
My mom used to say we had to at least eat enough to taste it and decide for ourselves. I liked most veggies except lima beans and Brussel sprouts. Thankfully we didn't eat much caned veggies. I heated up some canned spinach once, I gagged on eat and had to throw it away. It was so bad. I guess I'm spoiled but frozen spinach is tasty and fresh spinach goes great in a salad or sandwich.
Simon I went ahead and hit the FF button when you started the squarespace ad. I couldn't help myself, you told me not to! Laughing, but true....Great job with your stuff. Funny dude!
I like spinach but only if it's cooked right. I think the reason why most people don't like it is because most people boil the hell out of it and make it lose all flavour. It's the same with most vegetables. Stop boiling the hell out of vegetables.
Honestly, it's mostly a texture thing for me, as spinach doesn't really have much flavor whether cooked or not. I only *enjoy* spinach when it is raw and part of a salad, otherwise I just tolerate it. This is much like how my family has always preferred kale to collards-- kale has a stronger flavor and doesn't get so mushy.
As a 55 year old man Food and naps are quickly eclipsing thoughts of shagging. Depends upon what I see during the day Thank God for yoga pants Thank you ladies!!!
Spinach is tasty af. People who dont like it havent had it in good food. I use it in curries, add it to flavoured rice, add it to salads... Its good shit!
Bird part, I literally watched birds circle 2 birds fighting to death...I waited till it was over and walked down to the school yard spot to find a the looser dead and I have never looked at birds the same...nature is crazy!!!
19:15 anti-oxidants actually are a thing Simon. In brief: Oxygen is a corrosive gas. Over our lives, our bodies' cells accumulate a lot of oxidative stress, which puts pressure on the telomeres to divide for the production of more cells (also why blood is basically completely replaced every 3-4 months since they carry all the oxygen bound in hemoglobin). Thus they get shorter, there's less DNA available, you "age faster". Taking antioxidants will help alleviate some of that oxidative stress on your body *if intake is consistent* . But instead of buying mega-expensive super-foods you can also just take slightly more than recommended Vitamin E supplements (or probably athleticgreens, havent tried them yet but sound promising) from the supermarket or just snack on sunflower seeds throughout the day.
There's cheap fruits and veggies that are packed full of antioxidants and vitamins/minerals, blueberries, beets, broccoli, kale, Brussels sprouts, spinach, along with various other foods, you don't need expensive 'super foods' or supplements, just a healthy diet.
Well, if oxygen is bad and hydrogen is bad then I give up on water since it's obviously what's slowly killing us all. Accumulated oxygen and hydrogen damage. Oh, and to back my new age medical degree... Look what H2O2 does to your cells!
Woah, HaBsburg guy!!! I literally just replied to your comment on the other channel and recognised your long username. Again, gotta correct the record because there is some BS here: >>Over our lives, our bodies' cells accumulate a lot of oxidative stress, which puts pressure on the telomeres to divide for the production of more cells (also why blood is basically completely replaced every 3-4 months since they carry all the oxygen bound in hemoglobin). Thus they get shorter, there's less DNA available, you "age faster". Largely correct. >>Taking antioxidants will help alleviate some of that oxidative stress on your body if intake is consistent And with that you drifted into 'there is zero reliable evidence to back this up' territory.
@@brainblaze6526 just tried to link a harvard study on antioxidants but the thing doesnt like me posting links. Mostly backs up my comment, but what I meant with "taking antioxidants" wasn't necessarily supplements (altough I did mention them and gave them way more weight than the study, my bad), but as I said sunflower seeds for their vitamin e content. Sunflower seeds usually aren't considered a superfood I think. Anyway, example Quote: "Excessive free radicals contribute to chronic diseases including cancer, heart disease, cognitive decline, and vision loss. This doesn’t automatically mean that substances with antioxidant properties will fix the problem, especially if they are taken out of their natural context. The studies so far are inconclusive but generally don’t provide strong evidence that antioxidant supplements have a substantial impact on disease." Bottom line: taking supplement antioxidants won't harm but isn't proven to benefit substantially as studies are inconclusive, getting them by natural sources such as sunflower seeds (EAT THE DAMN SUNFLOWER SEEDS AND DO SO REGULARLY, also funnily enough it mentions them specifically in the study) is much better, but they are necessary due to free radicals being almost entirely oxygen atoms with too few electrons + the odd helium nucleus here or there depending on how much you play in a radioactive sandbox or whatever. Or as I like to call them to the mild annoyance of a physics teacher I know, the radioactive elephants in the porcelain stores that are our bodies. I can send Danny a link to the study on twitter or to you by mail
Hey, Danny! Fun fact. Popeye’s creator lived in Chester Illinois.

So, yeah. My pathetic little life. And sex is the furthest thing from my mind 99% of the time.

Happy to see Simon doing God's work making everyone lose the game. Lol been a while myself 😂
Whats the game
Thank you Sam for using the Takeshi clip, it's one of my favorite memes out there
Every veteran knows that SOS is an acronym for "shit on a shingle" aka creamed chipped beef on toast. Signal Corps men would use semaphore flags to signal "SOS" to warn the camp to stay away from the mess hall when it was being served. Navy veterans in merchant sea service carried it over as a general signal of distress. And the rest, as they say, is history.
Simon losing the game at 4.20 *chef's kiss"' can't make it up 😂
I won the game -
An anti-memetic beagle told me so.
Gotta trust that guy. He was adorable.
You cannot win the game you can only lose when you are reminded you are playing the game... Congratulations you are now playing the game!
@@gabrielpartanen1194 Nah, already won. The beagle was very clear about that.
Straight from the Casual Criminalist! Awesome!
And a decoding the unknown
The fact that you wanted to say “bow chicka bow wow” makes me know you watched Red vs. Blue.
I have definitely heard the phrase "do the horizontal tango" before.
Now I'm genuinely curious how many euphemisms Danny could come up with if you just let him loose.
So many euphemisms. Bravo, Danny.
Thanks a lot Simon, I just had to Google the Game and I guess I'm playing it now.
Just did it as well, was rather difficult to find the actual game and not the rapper
You alway have been
Things I didn’t know I needed: hearing Simon go “bow chicka wow wow”
The Kinsey's questions and data gathering were suspect, for starters.
"Thinking about sex" meant taking time out of your day to actively fantasize about getting busy, possibly leading to arousal, but not resulting in 'finishing'.
The Kinsey's work has been criticized for some time, least of which was their refusal to factor western cultural/religious values in their conclusions about human sex drive.
“Foxtrot. Uniform. Charlie. Kilo.”
Got a nice big list in the classic Bloodhound Gang Lyrics…
(Source check)
Danny deserves a bonus for this or maybe an hour or two out of the basement (because we know for a fact that's where you keep him locked away😄). Funniest thing I ever watched at 5 am 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Gave a thumbs up just for the end credits scene. (Good work Sam!)
Danny has long been, and still is, my favorite of your writers.
Men definitely think about sex more than once a day - 100% of them, I would bank on.
Crows and ravens will also pick up baby birds out of the nest, carry them to the nearest concrete or hard surface, and drop them from really high in the air sometimes multiple times until it’s dead. They also do that with baby rabbits. Pre-tenderized meat
I sooooo needed to know that. I think I will distract myself by thinking about sex.
Danny's euphemisms are hilarious
Honestly just love brain blaze, keep it going fact boi :)
6:08 When we moved to this apartment mid summer last year we had seen a nest in a bush by our front door. My moms bf was helping paint and the kids noticed a chick on the ground. He scooped it up and put it back. I told him not to cuz usually, from what I have seen, birds will destroy their offspring if they don’t see them thriving. Anyway literally 2 minutes after placing the chick back and seeing a second much bigger chick in the nest, the mama comes home and literally starts tearing the nest apart so we yelled at it and she flew across the street to a tree and kept an eye on us. It was fairly late in the day and after a while the mom flew away. The next day we heard some noises from the bush and see no mom all day so we started feeding them worms and shit til finally my daughter and my dads friend got together and researched how to raise baby birds. They wound up bundling the chicks up in a towel and put them in a paper bag in our garage as a makeshift nest and used a needleless syringe to squirt watered down dog food down their throats. A few days later the chick that started it all passed away and another day or two after that the other one did
:( the kids were devastated and they wanted me to bury them but our yard is a swamp so I wrapped them tightly up and threw them in the dumpster cuz I wasn’t going to walk half a mile to the park and bury them there. All this to say I do think there is something to be said about this myth. We also had a crow drop a halfway cracked open egg with a crow chick in it from about 30feet in the air into our pool one day when I was a young teen (around the turn of the century). We were all swimming and the splash startled us but Dad had seen it and had us get out of the pool, removed the body and shocked the pool cuz he said the bird prolly dropped it because it was diseased or something.
My point is birds probably realize when their chicks are failing to thrive or sick and want them out of their nests, causing a sympathetic human to notice and without wondering why it got there and assuming it fell, to “save” the little birdy just for the parents to come back and say fuck it I can’t do this now cuz you are gonna get my other chick sick too or something like that.
No birds, but I had a cat who had her first and only litter of 3 kittens. Four hours later, mom cat had relocated with two of the kittens. I found the third kitten at the first site and returned the "forgotten" kitten to the family. Two hours later, the "forgotten" kitten was outside the family again, this time dead. Two days later, another kitten died. A trip to the vet & it turned out that mom cat and remaining kitten had an intestinal tract infection. With medication, the mother cat lived, but the third kitten was too sick and died. So Nugboy, I quite agree that animals realize failing to thrive or sick offspring.
@@crabwalk7773 my wife’s uncle had the same going on when they were attempting to breed their huskies too. My wife decided to isolate the runt with the mom as much as she could and the mom actually nursed it back to Health…
Very sad for your cat to have lost the whole litter that’s crazy, tho I’m surprised that she only had three kittens, wayyyy back in like 97 our cat had a litter of like 7 then a litter of 8 the next year. Though luckily they all thrived and we had a free kitty rehoming party both times after we chose the best one for us to keep.
Animals are smarter than us sometimes lol. The kittens in your case may have sensed something spreading and decided to try to save the ones she could or something. I’m super sensitive in the moment so I would have done the same thing, but knowing what I do now I wouldn’t have.
Thanks for the story tho it was very interesting and also kinda proved my point in a way. :)
I’m with you, Simon. I love spinach, both raw and steamed
To think some of us (me included) almost gave up on Brain Blaze and Simon all because he wanted to *_blaze while sitting_* - I for one apologize and glad Simon has 1.2 quadrillion-pentillian other channels to satiate my Unrestrained Blaze Craze
I think you mean business blaze
There's a book called "hot sex" in the common kitchen at my dorm, and the writer wrote the 7-second thing. When we were looking through it, one of us guys would say, "have you remembered to think about sex" pretty often as a joke. The entire book sounded like the writer was going through an ugly divorce and had taken a dislike to guys. We constantly made fun of it and still do because of how dumb it is.
But if you need another synonym for sex, "horizontal mambo" is one I like. Partially because it's a song by "Here Come The Mummies" and that it's just funny
Just how many phrases can Danny think up for describing the sex act???? 2:32 and we've already had far too many .......
Danny's euphemisms reminds me of the end credit roll of the movie 'Grumpy Old Men' Lol. BTW Simon, I think thinking about "polls" counts as once per day.😂
While I will admit I miss the long form, Simon standing and rambling vids. These shorter vids are still funny as fuck and perfect for the drive to work.
One thing, and 1 thing only; 'Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo' xD
Crashing the custard truck. 😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤🤣🤣🤣🤣
Maybe Danny gave out the address as a code to signal operation “Basement Break-out” is a go.
I LOL'd so much at the Saltwater crocodile joke. I'm an Aussie and have rescued many baby birds, never from a Croc but several from blue tongue and shingleback lizards. Edit, and I live in the tropical North where I wouldn't dream of swimming in a river or at a beach because of the very real Salties, Saltwater Crocs here.
Damn you Simon and Danny I had gone nearly a year without think of the game
Sam, the little red bird one? awesome! :D
also, bookmark that one you used for Simon walking away... even though he sits down these days... if he does get up to do 'something' stick that sound effect in again! that was HILARIOUS! :D
I like spinach too! Then again as a kid I liked : brussel sprouts, broccoli, alfalfa sprouts, bamboo shots, smoked oysters, mushrooms, cottage cheese and tomatoes. I'd eat damn near anything. 😆
My mom used to say we had to at least eat enough to taste it and decide for ourselves. I liked most veggies except lima beans and Brussel sprouts. Thankfully we didn't eat much caned veggies. I heated up some canned spinach once, I gagged on eat and had to throw it away. It was so bad. I guess I'm spoiled but frozen spinach is tasty and fresh spinach goes great in a salad or sandwich.
6:54 - 6:59 I definitely woke my neighbors up laughing at that one
*THE GAME*
_RULES_
Do not think about The Game. If you think about The Game, you lose The Game.
Every time you think about The Game, you start again.
@@TheRatsintheWalls
That I did. My bad.
Simon I went ahead and hit the FF button when you started the squarespace ad. I couldn't help myself, you told me not to! Laughing, but true....Great job with your stuff. Funny dude!
I like spinach but only if it's cooked right. I think the reason why most people don't like it is because most people boil the hell out of it and make it lose all flavour. It's the same with most vegetables.
Stop boiling the hell out of vegetables.
Honestly, it's mostly a texture thing for me, as spinach doesn't really have much flavor whether cooked or not. I only *enjoy* spinach when it is raw and part of a salad, otherwise I just tolerate it. This is much like how my family has always preferred kale to collards-- kale has a stronger flavor and doesn't get so mushy.
@@coololds I understand the texture argument. I can't eat beans, sweercorn or peas because of their texture.
Hahaha burping the worm in the mole hole is my new fave chat up line
As a 55 year old man
Food and naps are quickly eclipsing thoughts of shagging.
Depends upon what I see during the day
Thank God for yoga pants
Thank you ladies!!!
I really enjoyed the story about the birds in South Africa!
I must say, I do miss the pacing factboy in a suit.
Baller episode regardless!
I love how the wand comment broke Simon lol
Spinach is tasty af. People who dont like it havent had it in good food. I use it in curries, add it to flavoured rice, add it to salads... Its good shit!
Also great in Lasagna.
Bird part, I literally watched birds circle 2 birds fighting to death...I waited till it was over and walked down to the school yard spot to find a the looser dead and I have never looked at birds the same...nature is crazy!!!
19:15 anti-oxidants actually are a thing Simon. In brief:
Oxygen is a corrosive gas. Over our lives, our bodies' cells accumulate a lot of oxidative stress, which puts pressure on the telomeres to divide for the production of more cells (also why blood is basically completely replaced every 3-4 months since they carry all the oxygen bound in hemoglobin). Thus they get shorter, there's less DNA available, you "age faster".
Taking antioxidants will help alleviate some of that oxidative stress on your body *if intake is consistent* . But instead of buying mega-expensive super-foods you can also just take slightly more than recommended Vitamin E supplements (or probably athleticgreens, havent tried them yet but sound promising) from the supermarket or just snack on sunflower seeds throughout the day.
There's cheap fruits and veggies that are packed full of antioxidants and vitamins/minerals, blueberries, beets, broccoli, kale, Brussels sprouts, spinach, along with various other foods, you don't need expensive 'super foods' or supplements, just a healthy diet.
Well, if oxygen is bad and hydrogen is bad then I give up on water since it's obviously what's slowly killing us all. Accumulated oxygen and hydrogen damage. Oh, and to back my new age medical degree... Look what H2O2 does to your cells!
Woah, HaBsburg guy!!! I literally just replied to your comment on the other channel and recognised your long username.
Again, gotta correct the record because there is some BS here:
>>Over our lives, our bodies' cells accumulate a lot of oxidative stress, which puts pressure on the telomeres to divide for the production of more cells (also why blood is basically completely replaced every 3-4 months since they carry all the oxygen bound in hemoglobin). Thus they get shorter, there's less DNA available, you "age faster".
Largely correct.
>>Taking antioxidants will help alleviate some of that oxidative stress on your body if intake is consistent
And with that you drifted into 'there is zero reliable evidence to back this up' territory.
@@brainblaze6526 just tried to link a harvard study on antioxidants but the thing doesnt like me posting links. Mostly backs up my comment, but what I meant with "taking antioxidants" wasn't necessarily supplements (altough I did mention them and gave them way more weight than the study, my bad), but as I said sunflower seeds for their vitamin e content. Sunflower seeds usually aren't considered a superfood I think. Anyway, example Quote:
"Excessive free radicals contribute to chronic diseases including cancer, heart disease, cognitive decline, and vision loss. This doesn’t automatically mean that substances with antioxidant properties will fix the problem, especially if they are taken out of their natural context. The studies so far are inconclusive but generally don’t provide strong evidence that antioxidant supplements have a substantial impact on disease."
Bottom line: taking supplement antioxidants won't harm but isn't proven to benefit substantially as studies are inconclusive, getting them by natural sources such as sunflower seeds (EAT THE DAMN SUNFLOWER SEEDS AND DO SO REGULARLY, also funnily enough it mentions them specifically in the study) is much better, but they are necessary due to free radicals being almost entirely oxygen atoms with too few electrons + the odd helium nucleus here or there depending on how much you play in a radioactive sandbox or whatever. Or as I like to call them to the mild annoyance of a physics teacher I know, the radioactive elephants in the porcelain stores that are our bodies.
I can send Danny a link to the study on twitter or to you by mail
@@brainblaze6526 anyway you should buy sunflower seeds. Maybe even give Danny one or two
Hey, Danny! Fun fact. Popeye’s creator lived in Chester Illinois. I knew this bc when we visited that sleepy little hamlet on the Mississippi River on the way to see the Union Pacific 4014 Big Boy Locomotive we stopped there for a brief visit before continuing on to St Louis MO for the big event. So, yeah. My pathetic little life. And sex is the furthest thing from my mind 99% of the time.
I absolutely love that the game started literally over a decade ago in America and has already jumped the pond
WHAT IS THE GAME??
@@scentofcheese8030 you're happier not knowing
It's older than that
@@scentofcheese8030 You lost the Game!
The Game has been around since the 90s.
Okee, didn't expect that. Now I ff-ng lost the game and have to start all over again. Thanks alot.
Simon, the last time I lost the game was watching one of your videos. I hate that.
I love losing the game because of Simon... then I'm not the only one. everyone where I live is too numbskulled to get it.
"Chemistry is not real!"
I mock thee with affection. I really do appreciate your skepticism
Quick, someone who can lip read tell us what the pub is called! We need to be able to buy danny a beer.
I'm with you - I love both spinach and Brussels sprouts. I think it's only fair that you give Danny a little hydroponics garden of both to use as a focal point whilst locked in the dungeon.
Does Simon ever watch Sam's edits? They're hysterical!
Yes. He does.
I'd love to see Simon reacting to his funniest videos!
Jesus, Simon, it’s been years, fucking hell! I lost 😂
Damn, Sam really brought the heat with this one.
Yes danny and sam should do a comedy episode of casual criminalist!
It should be about their attempt to escape the basement
@@joannasayah9992 this 100% this lol
Totally off point - I love the trimmed beard, Simon.
The Tangent Incoming clip literally made me LOL & I almost woke my HB!
Danny is just trying to make new friends
I'm with Simon on spinach. Love the stuff.
