Simon, I'm one of those people that believed (or thought I knew it as fact because I never verified it) that males and females have a different number of ribs and neeeeeeeever looked into it. I think I was taught that in Catholic school in Alberta Canada, but I don't know. I seem to remember some kid telling me, and then I asked a teacher about it. I'm pretty sure the teacher confirmed it. I hadn't thought of it in years, but yea, I was still under that impression. So, for the first dumb ass thing from the dozens and dozens of videos of yours that I've watched over the years, this one is so stupid it actually kind of hurts.
On the note of ribs... Yes, loads of Christians over here in the US believe the garbage that is their particular brand of holy text. Why they think their holy text is better than someone else's holy text, or why any of that ancient knowledge (the past WAS the worst people!) is even believed over things humanity has learned since then, is a complete mystery. People just like their sky daddy I guess.
Tangent here: I've not been well recently and have had to spend a disproportionately long time flat on my back on the floor. Whilst there, have been going through much of the Whistlerverse, including Brain/Business Blaze, Decoding The Unknown and The Casual Criminalist. So thank you to Simon and his many writers & editors for helping to keep me (sort of) sane whilst I got intimately familiar with the imperfections on my ceiling.
I know what you mean .... except for the ceiling part. I'm in chronic pain and the Whistlerverse is an excellent distraction for my mind. If I was able to bottle it and sell it, I could be a thousandaire. Allegedly. 😄 (BTW, I hope you're able to get off of the floor soon!)
I understand the mind stimulating effect of the Whistlerverse. A year ago my eyesight went weird. Nearly 3 months not being able to see properly, no reading, no videos, not even to be able to go for a walk on my own. Whistlerverse kept me as sane as I could be at the time. I hope you get better soon. Hope Simon realises the weird therapeutic effect of his work.
same, I finished chemo and watching all the whistleverse stuff during the past 8 months helped me be distracted and entertained during hospital stays, and long boring appointments/infusions etc.
The rib logic baffles me. The first time I encountered it, I had a student confidently explain the concept to me. My bemused first comment was "does that mean a man who loses an arm will have male children with one less arm?"
Some woman tried to tell us that at Sunday School once. We told our mother, she as a registered nurse walked over to her and in a dangerously calm voice called her an idiot and told her "keep to your lane" and stay away from science because she was "obviously incapable of understanding the basics".
I remember it being a "fact" only spread by students when I was in early primary school. I had clean forgotten about it until biology lessons and have never heard it mentioned since
"Good evening, we're Sperm Graveyard and the Ghosts of Funtimes Past! This first song is from our brand new album. It's called "Chicken Mayonnaise Sandwich." ONE TWO THREE FOUR!"
I appreciate Simon pointing out that it's important to listen to people you're training under. I have to train people at work and sometimes they act like they know better than me even though I've been here like a decade and they're brand new. Granted, this wouldn't be an issue if they genuinely do know something I don't, but so far, that hasn't happened. Like, I'm showing you how to dilute this chemical and how diluted it needs to me so we can use it, so you need to listen to me. If I come back and find you just poured straight concentrate into the spray bottle, I'm going to come give you a lecture before someone loses their eyesight or gets chemical burns (and that Someone just might be you if you didn't wear eye protection when filling the bottle). The concentrate is navy blue, and the diluted chemical is sky blue, so it's pretty damn easy for me to look at the bottle and see you didn't dilute it.
People didn't use to do this as much. Young people now have been taught to think too highly of their own thoughts, with no reason for doing that. It's really sad.
I was embarrassingly old when I found out men and women had the same number of ribs. I was watching an archeology program and they were trying to determine whether a skeleton was male or female. I said why don't they just count the ribs? My husband asked why and I said that men have fewer ribs than women. He asked me where I learned that. I had to wrack my brain to remember it was something I'd learned in Sunday school and never questioned, and that somehow had never come up since.
If it makes you feel better, there's a good chance "removed a rib" was a euphemism for the fact that humans don't have a baculum, a bone in the penis that many other mammals have but humans don't.
@@TheLithp I recently found out that washing someone's feet is an ancient Hebrew euphemism. I wish I knew that before my grandma passed so I could get her reaction to it 😂

Wait until you learn that eggs literally burst out of ovaries, chest-burster style. It's even more fun when they develop into a cyst, and THAT bursts into your abdominal cavity.
Wait until people find out that if you keep one or both of your ovaries after a total hysterectomy, until menopause, they still release eggs. Which are eventually reabsorbed by the body. Or as my friend put it, "your body basically gobbles them up like an unsupervised chicken."
I have PCOS and I can confidently say that it FUCKING hurts. Last time it happened was seven months ago and I was laid up for four days because moving was excruciating.
@@dragonwings36 yup! Mom had a full hysterectomy at 34 because of uterine polyps. Her periods were so heavy, she was chronically anemic. They told her she kept her ovaries so she wouldn’t go into instant menopause.
@@ItsJustLisa your poor mum! I only kept 1. We were aiming for both but mine had a giant cyst on it so it needed to go. Plus there was the whole endometriosis nonsense. Absolutely no regrets! I hope your mum is enjoying her no periods and that healing post surgery went well.
We were taught at school about hypothermia and NOT rubbing the limbs but to wrap them in a blanket and warm them SLOWLY. At the beginning of every school year we all got to watch the same short video/film - 1970s, New Zealand - about the signs of hypothermia and how to treat it. Largely to do with people going off hiking, sking or camping and recognising if one of their group was suffering and how to treat it.
I never even heard of rubbing a hypothermic person before, but the moment he said it, I pictured the horrible damage that would occur if you rubbed a frostbitten area! And even if you could safely warm the skin surface that way, it's not going to do anything for their core body temperature!
As a child of fundamentalist parents, yes, we were told men had fewer ribs than women. It was even taught in my Christian school. I didn't know this was false until my 20's.
I also have fundamentalist parents and I have never even heard of that. Closest I have heard of is people talking about where the original rib might have been.
We've actually been trained on that fact about not rubbing person in hypothermia's limbs during our first aid training for driver's license. You're supposed to use the thermo blanket (or any other blanket) and wrap the person in it so they get warm on their own.

@tripsaplenty1227 exactly, the brain is actually pretty resilient, and able to reassign different parts to deal with damaged or missing sections. Exactly what the life of a surviver of brain damage is like depends greatly on what was destroyed. The victims of lobotomy are a classic example, having part of the brain damaged / destroyed to calm a patient down, mostly non lethally. If part of your brain is unused, it will get repurosed to other things. In particular someone who is blind will use their visual cortex to enhance other senses. Studies have been done were they did multiple brain scans and other tests on a volunteer who was blindfolded over multiple months (iirc).

14:30. As a non-religious person, I thought men had one less rib than women, but this was because I assumed the story in the Bible was invented because of an observed difference between male and female anatomy. Primitives observe a fact in nature and make up a story to explain it... it never occurred to me that there wasn't an observed anatomical difference before they made up the story.
As a religious person, I remember that I had been told this at some point, with that same logic attached to it (observation->explanation). Then I found out that was all made up, and I thought "Why didn't they just say that Adam had 13 ribs?" 😂
According to one of the banned books God did make the first woman also from dust. That'd be Lilith. She didn't want to submit to Adam so God turned her into a succubus and kicked her out of the garden. Or so the story goes anyway. Eve was then created from Adam's rib so that she would be submissive to him.
As the son of a theologian (unfortunately), the reason for Eve being made from Adam's rib is to be his companion. She's his, she came from him, she's literally a part of him. However, there are books that weren't included in the Bible that suggest that Eve was Adam's second wife and his first wife (Lilith) was made from the dust and....didn't turn out as well. When you consider that the Bible as its currently structured was picked and chosen from over 200 texts (or "books" in keeping with the Bible's structure) by a bunch of dudes in the 16th Century (and then redone in the 17th century at the behest of King James I of England) trying to merge multiple religions into one to ensure conversion, some of the head scratching parts make sense.
From a conservative Christian woman (not American): IT'S A SYMBOL! We were made as equals. Not from the head to manage our men, nor from the feet to be walked over. But as support, depending on what is needed. It also means that men are supposed to protect us so that we can be who we can. At least, that's how my grandfather explained it to me... Perhaps he was just awesome..
@movingforward3030 ewww. What a gross idea. Men and women are not equal in that explanation. It's mens fault women are unsafe and needed to be protected(from the world Men built), but also the idea that Men need to be supported and not protected. We are all human and thus need the exact same thing in that regard.
@@movingforward3030it’s not that he was awesome, per se, it’s that he was willing to bend the actual import of the symbol - which has always been that woman was made by a male-identifying father figure god as a component part of, and is therefore subservient to, man, in the same manner as men are a component part of and subservient to their god - for a female audience, so she wouldn’t recognize the inherent contradiction in the symbolism and rebel against the religion. Men (and indeed women) have always been willing to bend the rules to make them more palatable, that’s why so many conservative Christians believe in there being exactly 10 commandments when neither of the two primary lists of commandments agree on either the order or the number of commandments, and also believe in Jesus being raised bodily into the heavens when 2 of the 3 synoptic gospels completely omit that imagery and the 3rd was very obviously changed likely centuries after the fact to better support what doctrine had by then evolved. The OP comment had it right… today’s doctrines of faith are entirely a curated interpolation and synthesis of many historical beliefs all meant to serve the shifting needs for power of those who held that power, consistently presented as “conservative” fact when nothing of the original has actually been conserved.
That opening line is 100% Simon being a grumpy old man. I was waiting for a litany of complaints: “The sun is so bright… ugh, have I ever had the best tuna sandwich of my life and it’s all downhill from here?”
Nah brother, the moment you start reading random icebergs from reddit and passing them as content, that's when creativity is truly dead. Y'all still golden on my book.
I remember hearing the rib thing at Sunday school.. It's stored next to people being turned into pillars of salt for looking back. I probably believed it when I was 8.
The sun coming out like that was as though some unearthly being had turned up to smite Simon, and then just gave up cos the processing of paperwork for official smite work is just unbearable... :P
Kinda wish the abridged version would stop popping up everywhere. Can't even have a conversation about dragonball anymore without T4S being people's only talking point.
The amount of ribs brought to you by a Roman Catholic grade school who's nuns also beat my older brothers left hand with a hard wood pointer ever time he tried to write with it!
I had all my toes affected by dry gangrene (long story). My doctors actually recommended bone broths and other high-cartilage foods as something to help surrounding the amputation process. Couldn't tell you if it actually helped, but everything went really well. I even got to keep 2!
I did hear an interesting theory about the "Adam's rib" story: The word "rib" in that context might have actually been referring to the baculum, or penis bone. Most mammals have one, but humans don't. So the story of Adam and Eve might have been partially an attempt to explain where that extra bone went.
I’m a woman. I’ve had three children. I knew that my ovaries are not attached to my fallopian tubes. But until this video, it never occurred to me that sperm might live long enough to exit my fallopian tubes and wind up wiggling around all willy-nilly in my abdomen. I am fully embarrassed enough to say, “Ew”.
And of the select several women I have mentioned this to, and even one two men who were eavesdropping, several made 😱 faces, and one man told me to, “Never speak those words together again”. 😂

20:55 Wait. This guy, who was actively working to disprove these supplements, exclusively tested a source he had infuence of? To me is sounds more like a case of his sample size being too small, but even in a test of 1 person in the "Is 20 grams of pure arsenic lethal?" test is going to too small to give a 100% definitive result, even if the absolutely obvious result is that it is or is not nonsense.
@@Markcrazeerthe word used is tzela which could mean rib, or side, it’s not entirely clear what the exact translation is meant to be, granted both iterations of genesis are rife with systemic sexism particularly when you account for Lilith getting kicked out of Eden for wanting equality of the sexes

Primitives observe a fact in nature and make up a story to explain it... it never occurred to me that there wasn't an observed anatomical difference before they made up the story.
As a religious person, I remember that I had been told this at some point, with that same logic attached to it (observation->explanation).
Then I found out that was all made up, and I thought "Why didn't they just say that Adam had 13 ribs?" 😂
According to one of the banned books God did make the first woman also from dust. That'd be Lilith. She didn't want to submit to Adam so God turned her into a succubus and kicked her out of the garden. Or so the story goes anyway. Eve was then created from Adam's rib so that she would be submissive to him.
Book of Enoch I think
Absolutely terrible science fiction
@@captainspaulding5963 Just some fanfic anyway.
@@filipbaxa71 indeed!!
Allegedly.
As the son of a theologian (unfortunately), the reason for Eve being made from Adam's rib is to be his companion. She's his, she came from him, she's literally a part of him. However, there are books that weren't included in the Bible that suggest that Eve was Adam's second wife and his first wife (Lilith) was made from the dust and....didn't turn out as well. When you consider that the Bible as its currently structured was picked and chosen from over 200 texts (or "books" in keeping with the Bible's structure) by a bunch of dudes in the 16th Century (and then redone in the 17th century at the behest of King James I of England) trying to merge multiple religions into one to ensure conversion, some of the head scratching parts make sense.
From a conservative Christian woman (not American):
IT'S A SYMBOL!
We were made as equals. Not from the head to manage our men, nor from the feet to be walked over. But as support, depending on what is needed. It also means that men are supposed to protect us so that we can be who we can.
At least, that's how my grandfather explained it to me...
Perhaps he was just awesome..
@movingforward3030 ewww. What a gross idea. Men and women are not equal in that explanation. It's mens fault women are unsafe and needed to be protected(from the world Men built), but also the idea that Men need to be supported and not protected. We are all human and thus need the exact same thing in that regard.
Rib also isn't an accurate translation.
@@movingforward3030it’s not that he was awesome, per se, it’s that he was willing to bend the actual import of the symbol - which has always been that woman was made by a male-identifying father figure god as a component part of, and is therefore subservient to, man, in the same manner as men are a component part of and subservient to their god - for a female audience, so she wouldn’t recognize the inherent contradiction in the symbolism and rebel against the religion. Men (and indeed women) have always been willing to bend the rules to make them more palatable, that’s why so many conservative Christians believe in there being exactly 10 commandments when neither of the two primary lists of commandments agree on either the order or the number of commandments, and also believe in Jesus being raised bodily into the heavens when 2 of the 3 synoptic gospels completely omit that imagery and the 3rd was very obviously changed likely centuries after the fact to better support what doctrine had by then evolved. The OP comment had it right… today’s doctrines of faith are entirely a curated interpolation and synthesis of many historical beliefs all meant to serve the shifting needs for power of those who held that power, consistently presented as “conservative” fact when nothing of the original has actually been conserved.
The books left out of the bible were left out because they were found to be unreliable.
I just can’t get over the sippy cup Simon is drinking presumably wine out of.
I can’t wait for part seven of this series!
That opening line is 100% Simon being a grumpy old man. I was waiting for a litany of complaints: “The sun is so bright… ugh, have I ever had the best tuna sandwich of my life and it’s all downhill from here?”
Nah brother, the moment you start reading random icebergs from reddit and passing them as content, that's when creativity is truly dead. Y'all still golden on my book.
The editing on this one is next level! The god spund when the light blinds Simon right after the bible dis....wow. 🎉❤
Several teachers told me the rib myth. I was today years old when I realized it was a myth.
Thanks Dave .
Julian did great with the bumpers 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I remember hearing the rib thing at Sunday school.. It's stored next to people being turned into pillars of salt for looking back. I probably believed it when I was 8.
The editing by Julian was *chefs kiss*
The sun coming out like that was as though some unearthly being had turned up to smite Simon, and then just gave up cos the processing of paperwork for official smite work is just unbearable... :P
The Cell Saga memes are killing me 🤣👌
Not just Cell Saga, the abridged version!
@@captainspaulding5963 Hah, I love how one of the editors is clearly a big DBZA fan.
@@BruceBoyde yessss! And I'm 100% here for it 😂
And I’m here for you being here for Abridged memes.
Kinda wish the abridged version would stop popping up everywhere. Can't even have a conversation about dragonball anymore without T4S being people's only talking point.
"stfu and listen" I need this on a shirt, asap.
We need merch with all the "... With fact boi" memes
6:49 Without skipping a freaking beat, an ad started that said "Estrogen is destroying men's bodies...."
I almost fell out of my chair laughing! 😂😂😂
Never been this early, 50 seconds after upload.
Let's go Fact Boi and Dave
Well done, Julian. Brilliant memes for this one! And a banger of a script by Dave!
good job trio, keep up the good work
The voice, the face, the facts, the legend!
Simon that was the most appropriate boomer response ever.
The amount of ribs brought to you by a Roman Catholic grade school who's nuns also beat my older brothers left hand with a hard wood pointer ever time he tried to write with it!
Simon you have started a Collection of so Many channels we need to get you your own Network
I was taught at school in science. That women have more ribs than men. Nineties after x rays have been around for a hundred years.😂
I had all my toes affected by dry gangrene (long story). My doctors actually recommended bone broths and other high-cartilage foods as something to help surrounding the amputation process. Couldn't tell you if it actually helped, but everything went really well. I even got to keep 2!
Lovin the Hellsing memes Julian
Julian! Good on ya, my friend!
I love how often db and helsing abridged gets referenced. Never gets old
12:11...I ask myself this question so much my soul is almost destroyed. People's inability to listen is wild.
I love all the TFS clips in the edits.
VEGETA YES!!!!
Fabulous cup Simon!
Hey Dave. No need for the performance anxiety. You do an awesome job!
Dbz abridged meme *chefs kiss* thank you!
EDIT: Hellsign Abridged too. Omg!!
The memes are amazing not even 5 minutes in. I love this channel.
I did hear an interesting theory about the "Adam's rib" story: The word "rib" in that context might have actually been referring to the baculum, or penis bone. Most mammals have one, but humans don't. So the story of Adam and Eve might have been partially an attempt to explain where that extra bone went.
Considering the amount of euphemisms in the old testament for sex organs, I've always thought this theory had merit.
I spent the entirety of the first bit laughing at the horror of these men 🤣🤣🤣 that's an amazing animation as well
I’m a woman. I’ve had three children. I knew that my ovaries are not attached to my fallopian tubes. But until this video, it never occurred to me that sperm might live long enough to exit my fallopian tubes and wind up wiggling around all willy-nilly in my abdomen. I am fully embarrassed enough to say, “Ew”.
And of the select several women I have mentioned this to, and even one two men who were eavesdropping, several made 😱 faces, and one man told me to, “Never speak those words together again”. 😂
Need more hellsing abridged memes sprinkled in. That hits right in the childhood
When you upset people over their invisible wizard friend and then upset people over their right to carry weapons only to discover it's the same people 😂😂
Listen here Dave, just because you're right doesn't mean we won't take that as a personal attack. This is 'Murica.
He's demonstrably wrong, but don't let that influence you.
@@capslockbusted About what? It's a 20-minute video.
Something about Police Girl being below Simon at 16:27 is very funny to me
Now, say…her…name…
Happy constitutionalist here! So happy we have it!
Blinded by the light... Shook up like a ru....blah blah in the night, blinded by the light!! xD God was shining his light down on you Simon, just to brighten up yo day, how thoughtful:) btw the first part of this is about Cocai... huh? I didn't say nothin' xD
I was not expecting the Kratos as Mal bit 😂
that my new thing for the day!, the is holes in the pluming?
I had heard the thing about the ribs, but I never put much stock into it as it didn't really make sense and I didn't really give it much thought
20:55 Wait. This guy, who was actively working to disprove these supplements, exclusively tested a source he had infuence of? To me is sounds more like a case of his sample size being too small, but even in a test of 1 person in the "Is 20 grams of pure arsenic lethal?" test is going to too small to give a 100% definitive result, even if the absolutely obvious result is that it is or is not nonsense.
Love the content
Well done Dave
5:15 , I am eating sc...scrambled eggs... I mean, left over taco beef added, but.. Thanks I guess?
I'm missing most of the ribs on my front right side and my right hand has 2 bones in each finger instead of 3. Birth enhancement. Great video! 😊🌎❤️🕺🏻🐶
Some day far in the future, your skeleton will confuse the hell out of some archeologists. That's spectacular!
The thing about Eve being made out of one of Adam's ribs seems to be based on the mistranslation of the concerning passage.
what does ot actually say? or do we just know its wrong. also that sounds like a covenient way to cover up systemic sexism.
@@Markcrazeerthe word used is tzela which could mean rib, or side, it’s not entirely clear what the exact translation is meant to be, granted both iterations of genesis are rife with systemic sexism particularly when you account for Lilith getting kicked out of Eden for wanting equality of the sexes
@@melissamargolese8782 with lilith in the picture whatever they meant with tzela it is absolutley not witchever understanding would let eve see herself as an equal. because that was the mistake that caused lilith to act out. the woman should be bellow the man, missionary style.
The whole ( holy/holey ) book is based on the mistranslation of mistranslations of mistranslations of the exaggerations of the exaggerations of someones made up stories to try to control those around them.
Starfishes really, really love Dave!!!... and Simon too😅
Does Danny even write for this channel now. It seems like so long since he has written one
He escaped the basement
Or simon forgot to feed him
Kevin and Dave killed and ate him
Shhh, raid shadow legends might be listening
Dave pushed him out as he pushed his way in.
0:17 well I'm so glad Simon read that with a straight face ... but there was a cut just then ...
This is a strong contender for weirdest Blaze opening. 😂
Yo Julian
Top tier editing
Dave was spicy while writing this script, I appreciate it. Hand feeding me some good ol "this person agrees with me about the deplorable state of a certain country" serotonin
You’re absolutely correct, Simon. Young people think they know best, and, as I will be 54 next month, I consider you one of those young people. 🤣🤪🤣
I remember being told the rib one at primary school by one of my teachers. Granted i never really thought about it after that but i also was too young to question it either
I KNEW that slap was going to fade to Ralof
Ahhhhhh, what a cute giant sippy cup. 😅😅😅😅
