  • A pilkopedia user by the name of sheb put this compilation together so for every like this video gets, I'll feed him another tiny Japanese bowl of rice so he doesn't starve in my attic. You don't want sheb to starve...do you?

    To attempt to completely wipe out jellyfish would be an undertaking that would dwarf the apollo missions in magnitude, and even with every resource available it would be next to impossible to achieve the objective. He wants this to be done because they don't do anything. I love Karl Pilkington.

  • @iamtherealrenedescartes
    @iamtherealrenedescartes 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    They don't. The reason is because when we refer to "knees", we are referring to a specific type of joint; that joint is called the femoral-tibial joint in which the cockroach only has one but this joint on the cockroach has very little meaning in relation to vertebrate knees. Now, if you ask how many joints cockroaches have, then there are five, plus the joints between the segments of the tarsi (tarsomeres) in which there is also 5. So 10 would be the answer.

      Having watched/listened to hundreds of hours of him I think Ricky doesn't possess the voice acting skills to do such a subtly off way of inflecting, and if was trying to disguise himself he'd probably have done a different accent to the one he already has.
