Hank's sense of humor is part of the reason why I love to watch these videos. 😎
*Looks at crotch* "Wee-wee, did I just say "wee-wee"?"
There are a lot of penises all over the world made from various things in various conditions, some of which were created before penises as we know them were a thing. I wonder if we pattern/sex-focused humans are just really good at finding penis silhouettes, or if it just happens to be an efficient shape. Sci Show should do a vid on that.
Also, as I've used the word 'penis' a lot in this post, and used the phrase 'There are a lot of penises all over the world made from various things' in an entirely serious context... now excuse me while I giggle for like an hour.
+Laquisha Adams or Gaia just has a lot of sex toys. Perhaps we are just living in her nightstand drawer.
I like how a soft rock is called tuff, because it isn't very tough at all.
"Weewee? Did I really just say weewee?"
He probably has kids he would say wee wee to
one of the must-see natural places in Turkey, i personally recommend you to make a vid about "Pamukkale traverine terraces"
They have a necropolis there too.
The springs in Pamukkale was thought to be able to cure sickness. And the necropolis is for the poor souls who were not cured.
hreaper i did not know that, now it is more probable for Hank to make a vid about it :)
SOFT ROCKS CALLED TUFF WTF SCIENTISTS
"And here we come to my favorite tuff rock formation: Big Richard. As you can see, it stands erect at 50 feet, and yes, we do have the pictures to prove that. It's got an interesting texture to it. Reach out and stroke the sides of it, everyone. That's tuff. You know, I always get this strange sense of satisfaction when I come out here and enjoy myself with this thing. Woah, there, don't touch your face after you've been stroking Big Richard. That stuff could get in your eye. You don't want to go blind from stroking Big Richard, do you?"
A "soft igneous rock called Tuff," Well, that makes a lot of sense...
It feels weird to think that the person who wrote this no longer exists. You probably have the same name and a similar personality as you did a decade ago, but that's about it, right?
ha.. he said wee wee
Oui? Oui!
As a turkish person i can proudly say that you didn't bucher any vocabulary
Hank, you are an adult. You are on a science channel. You are allowed to say penis. I promise you won't get a time out for it
So, Ironically Tuff isn't very tough,
lol yeah.
Currently on exchange in Turkey and saw these rock formations a month ago. You get a nice feeling seeing someone cover a topic that that you were able to experience.
Keep up the great videos.
Oh come on Hank. You're a man of science. Just say "penis" and "phallus" for goodness' sake.
He said wee wee
I couldn't stop laughing when he started questioning him self.
I think that SciShow could be an interactive exhibit at a Places like The museum of Science and Industry; or A touring conference.
This looks like it's going to be a cool series! I love travel and geography, so I'm super excited!!
I'm excited about this series of sci-show, much more than any series. Another series with weird animals would be cool, too.
Im a subscriber for 6 months or so now - one of my fav channels - keep it going scishow!
Yep, subscribing, your channel is really worth it.
The caves people have built there are lots of fun to explore. The deeper caves have air vents built so it never feels stuffy down there. The great thing about the houses there is that they are so cool in the ridiculously hot summers. The temperature inside is nearly constant year round. It'll be hard to convince most residents to leave them.
Can you start making a SciShow quiz to test how much we absorb from each episode? I find all of stuff info fascinating and I don't want to forget it. Thanks for all the great work!
Hank, I love SciShow, by far the best show on TH-cam that I have ever subscribed to. Followed by veritasium1 and then followed by vsauce. You would expect that eventually you would run out of things and ways to entertain but every time I get an email saying SciShow uploaded I video I have to click on it to get smarter. And every time Im not disappointed.
Please do more of these places videos! They are really awesome and you are applying science to real places and the real world!
Cool!!! I've actually been to Goreme and slept once in one of those cave rooms. A kindly Turkish youth found my friend and I wandering around the hoodoos and took us on a personal tour (with no English). You forgot to mention that the soft rock in that region was also used to create entire underground cities, one of which held up to 20,000 people at once and had miles and miles and miles of underground tunnel-roads.
Absolutely loved seeing this in person - if you ever get the chance to visit this region - GO & enjoy all the wonders of the country; so much to see & experience (ps - they offer hot air balloon tours to view the valley). Though the tour of the underground city is a little too intense (very tight). The towns are so bizarrely awesome as some of the places which are still actively inhabited in the ancient caves have satelite dishes hanging off of them to accomodate modern technology.
Hank, sir, thank you for the entertainment you provide me on daily basis. I like almost everything you upload as a vain attempt to repay you somehow, which I know it would be impossible. Best wishes (as John would say) :P
Antinous and I have been to Goreme before. Interesting place. It was not far from his home in Bythinia. If I remember, Mithridates and Sulla did battle here. So much from such a very old place, It makes me feel old.
If Weird Places will be a new series, you should cover Socotra Island of Yemen. It's endemic species are just fascinating. Dragon's Blood trees, sand dune beaches, cucumber trees, bottle trees, the list is endless.
who do the hoodoo?
His name was Heehoo Dundehoodoo.
Herr Hansen her name was Hoodoo Moodoloodo
TheJaredtheJaredlong The voodoo hoodoo that you don't dare do?
A really weird awesome place is pamukkale in turkey!!! You should put it in one of your vids
scishow, Vsauce, CGPGrey, AsapSCIENCE, I'm loving all these informative video channels!
Thank you for the suggestion, Mr. Solo. It's nice to see that you've made time to contribute to science education, even while busy with the galactic rebellion.
HANK! I have two questions: 1.) If all the volcanoes on Earth were to fully erupt simultaneously what would happen? I think that the world would get really cold because the ash would block out the sun but it could also get really hot due to the lava and what not. 2.) If two black holes crashed into each other, what would happen? Would they explode or form one big Super Black Hole? I can't really find any definite answers so I was hoping maybe you could help me.
Thanks in advance,
Jasmine
Love your show! Some ideas for weird places to talk about: the Easter Island, Ol Doynio Lengai and the Crystal Cave in Mexico!
Hey... guess what? They've done the crystal cave now!
As somebody who has never studied geology before, but is going to study it at uni next year, this was really interesting!
Oh yeah! I'd really like to see an episode about the sailing rocks of Death Valley.
Make a video about Pamukkale, too :)
Yaaay At last something I can really appreciate, because I have actually been there and I've seen all these villages. It's amazing that they could build 40 odd meters into the ground and yet they could breathe there. I could breathe there as well as on the surface. And giant weewees were cool too...well that sounds bad.
More pictures, less facetime with Hank when you have those awesome pictures of the place you're discussing! My wife walked in from the other room when you were describing the landscapes and was disappointed there were so few pictures during the rest.
Really love this channel!!
I seriously love this show
pretty cool. I asked about doing a sci show on mesothelioma ages ago, it's what my grandad passed away from due to asbestos exposure industrially.
If you ever get a chance you should visit Goreme, it is really incredible.
There are claims, with some supporting evidence, that the tunnels are much older than generally thought. There's also the mystery of what happened to all the rock that was dug out to make them.
Phallus it's phallus Hank.
Somewhat unrelated, but this comment made me think that Hank should do a Crash Course mini-series on anatomy (similar to his ecology one or John's literature one)! I think that would be so interesting!
Love this new category! :-D Can't wait for more weird places.
Hi from Turkey. Glad you're back.
You'd also have to cover the outside of every house, the ground, and several miles around the town to give decent protection to the residents, as those fibres are very small and light, and can and will drift on a breeze, get onto clothing and be carried indoors.
I love Emily! I want to see more of her. Brain scoop is awesome! I love when she filled in for you on Sci Show! And I love the interaction of the two of you!
I was there last year and it is really amazing!
I think there's been some misunderstanding. Hank was obviously referring to "Oui-Oui" the french version of Noddy, a character created by writer Enid Blyton and featured in many TV adaptations on BBC. Like the rock formations, Noddy is known for wearing a big pointy cap on his head.
I've been to Göreme on a family holiday. My mum couldn't stop laughing the entire time.
Is it just me or was he talking faster than usual.? Coffee or crack something's got him hyped
One of the places I'd like to visit, have been since Michael Palin did the New Europe thing a bit back.
Oh my goodness, I went there a while ago and forgot what it was called, thanks for reminding me :) Great video.
(I'm not Hank, but...)
Yes we do. The reason we say that we "burn fat" is that fatty tissue is consumed via chemical reaction with oxygen which produces extra energy; this is pretty much the definition of "burning", even if the energy released doesn't get to the level where we produce a visible flame (thankfully).
I'll also mention that burning fat produces toxic compounds, which is why it's unsafe to lose more that a pound of fat per week; the liver can't remove them any faster.
Tuff livin in göreme
Loved Capadocia. Been there amazing place!!
Hank Green, brings news of cancer-causing rock formations, then says "wee wee" less than 5 seconds after lol Love you Hank you funny, funny man xD
I think he got the majority of his facts correct. A quick check on the Göreme National Park website confirms what he said. I also trust that Sci Show reviews their facts very carefully. This is a channel dedicated to spreading factual information and a love of learning.
"Did I really just say wee wee?" Classic! 😂
I like how Hank is still a cute, shy nerd who is embarrassed to say naughty words in public.
Used to have similar glasses like Hank wears.. Now i miss that pair, going to have to get myself new ones :)
Students like to make fun of the shapes of the fairy chimneys in geography classes. Sly laughs and annoyed teachers... I'm glad you introduced something from Türkiye, Hank.
Another similar place to this one, is Vardzia, in Georgia. A whole mountain line, filled with ancient houses. ; )
A swedish scifi movie called Vintergatan(milky way) have some scenes from the caves.
(i think that's a great movie)
But the english scifi movies i've seen are better.
Hank is back! yay.
I'm so glad you switched to a blue background. That icky orange was so distracting.
Hank, if you're going to do more weird places videos, then I think you should cover the Hoodoos in Alberta. Rock formations don't get much weirder than that.
HI HANK AND JOHN! I just wanted to say I LOVE your shows, but I wanted to ask a favour. One of my best friends is addicted to triple c's (coricidan cough medicine). She loves your show, so I thought maybe if I could get you to talk about the effects doing this could have on your body, it might get her to get help. I really hope you see this..love you guys ♥
Hank: "Wee wee, did i just say wee wee?"
Hanks wee wee: "Yes, yes you did, Hank."
hey hank, i was wondering if scishow could do a video on the Human Genome Project because I am currently studying it at university and it is really cool and i think it it an amazing study, and i think that it is one of the most amazing biological studys done in human history. i hope you do this. thanks
good to have hank back
My mom and dad are happy (or unhappy). We live together inside a giant Wee-Wee. And sometimes my friends come over to sleep in our hollow Wee-Wee. They like it very much. We fit snugly into our Wee-Wee.
You actually pronounced the Turkish names pretty well. I'm impressed :D
i like how he keeps these shows G-rated. it makes the show funny when he needs to say something inappropriate.
Speaking of Star Wars, what about an episode about the science of Star Wars? How lightsabers work, the idea of the Force..stuff like that!
I have lost count of how many times I've been to Cappadocia and Göreme, and I had no idea it was actually a national park. huh. got family friends out there, there are hotels in the rocks, guaranteed dust-of-death free. I recommend anyone who can visit should visit.
The disease, similar to asbestosis, caused by inhaling small particles such as volcanic ash is called pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovalcanoniosis, also the longest word in the English language
Enjoying the weird places videos!
Those formations are rock hard.
Hey Hank
im a huge fan and been watchin your vids for every haha
im currently workin of a project for biology and i was wondering if you could do a show on if it's possible to "download memories" into a computer or some type of database where one can access it later.
Thanks!
Radiometers why they fail as generators and could they be used in space but made bigger to overcome the friction that prevents them from working on smaller scales as a renewable resource. I just think radiometers are neat in general and would make a good show. Cool how they spin differently in a total vacuum is interesting and the generator was a failed patent. I just like radiometers. Should do a show :D
rumpled pointy landscape... nice
In Utah their is a park called goblin valley. It is supper awesome with the best camping ever! And if you get a camp spot then you get free access to the park during your stay. It had some really awesome rock formations also as well as some good hiking. Utah is easier than flying over an ocean and getting cancer! :D
The Tertiary is no longer recognized as a formal unit by the International Commission on Stratigraphy,[4] its traditional span being divided between the Paleogene and Neogene Periods of the Cenozoic Era.
Awesome show, wewe
lol I love how he said wee wee and then looked down as if checking if he still had one
Just from youtubes videos Socotra looks liike the weirdest spot on the planet. Thanks for the info!
They way we process food is combustion, the opposite of photosynthesis. The product of this combustion is CO2 and water, so to answer your question yes it is burning but it's different. Hard to explain but I did my best. :)
I remember reading Herodotus mentioning people living in caves like that. That was about 400 B.C.
I'm not sure if it's the same caves, but it was in the present day Turkey area.
Holy shit I never thought of that... How unique would their experience be having no visual information or memory of visual stimuli? LSD tends to cause synesthesia in people with vision listening to music, but colour and vision would be foreign concepts to someone born blind. I'd love to learn some more about this! Good thought Chwyn.
Hank actually covered this on hankschannel I think, there's a place in Scotland called Overtoun House where many dogs are reported to have 'commit suicide' by jumping off a bridge. Whether it's suicide or some attractive smell is still an issue though.
There is a really awesome mountain in either new guinea or africa that is compleatly flat and tall and the plant life is in its own ecosystem up there. I forgot what its called but it is amazing, please talk about it
a similar type of erosion can be seen in northern Italy. Although, it is not due by volcanic eruption but glacier movements. check that out anyway! it is called "Segonzano's pyramids".
I've been here. It's cool as hell!!
Hank! I really like your shirt in this video!
