So strange and humbling to see myself in a video on the internet, especially when I'm used to being a disembodied voice in a podcast or silent editor in a magazine! 😅 Huge thanks to Levi and the rest of the amazing Campfire team for letting me stretch my face muscles by putting this collaboration together. Keep worldbuilding, gang.
Another thing worth accounting for in desert environments is how badly the temperature drop effects many people; think "body heat equivalent of jetlag". Even if it doesn't become that cold, the switch is so quick and so steep that it shocks the body (naturally, some handle it better than others and getting used to this helps to mitigate the effects). What also factors into this is that dessert cold is different from European cold; it's more "penetrating", the air it's less still and it's more windy. When visiting Europe, I was ok walking around in a t-shirt in 0 degrees, but 12 degrees in the dessert has everyone shaking under their coats.

@@AroundTheCampfire My thoughts exactly.

Amazing video !
Thanks! 😊
Very good video !!! It's sad it doesn't have more likes :/
How'd they get Rob Schneider's cousin to be in this?
Awesome video! Tons of great information. Big fan of your guest! You've got a like and subscribe from me. :D
Wouldn't the Fremen overheat?
Their stillsuits deny the water vapor from taking the heat away. They would need air-cooled radiators.
I hate to be that guy but the Mayans didn't live at the Amazon.
u right, my bad
1:20 Hey at least the gravity's only 0.88 g's so it would be 7.92 pounds 😅
if you wanna check out some real world amazing desert cultures, look up the canals of the hohokam or the canats of ancient persia,
I want to thank you for not showing a clip of maggots, really.
I take that back, ten seconds later you still showed a spider, my creepy-crawly phobia still kicked in, lol.
So close 😔
