On my Navy ship in the early 1980s, I once stayed awake and working for 54 hours straight. One does NOT tell the Captain one is going to sleep with a critical piece of equipment still broken! I finally got it fixed, and I looked and felt like the walking dead. My Seniorchief finally ordered me to "get horizontal", in other words get some sleep! I cannot believe anyone can go 90+ hours awake. Ain't gonna happen. 😒
I once worked a day shift, stayed awake to work a night shift the following night, and then stayed awake for the next night shift. Not through choice, i just couldn't sleep. That's 12 hour shift, 24 hour break, 12 hour shift, 12 hour break, 12 hour shift; 36 hours of work in 72 hours with no sleep (excluding 3-4 hours for travel to first shift and home from last shift). Being awake for 3 full days was followed by about 20 hours of sleep. I was halucinating at points, felt like i was going to have a heart attack, and looked like hell. I woke up unable to open my eyes due to the amount of sleep built up. I imagine 90 hours would feel like a near death experience and took several days to recover from.
I really felt bad for Guillaume De Gentil. All the guy wanted to do was track Venus and he ran into an endless amount of bad luck. What really hurt was in the end where he was declared dead and his wife remarried.

I honestly was shocked lol. How do you know so many facts and not know how many people actually catch them all. It's honestly not even that hard to complete a shiny dex.
As a person who struggles with limited mobility I have played runescape off and on for 17 years and achieved the max cape at least 4 times on RS3 now. However nowdays that is not as insane as it seems especially when compared to the insanity of the master quest cape, completionest cape and Trimmed completionest cape. Yes doing these things does require a lot of time but consider that it is a game where you can talk and play with other people and i have several friends from there who ive been friends with through multiple year long breaks on both sides. The game was where we met but the friendship has lasted for longer than our interest in the game.
Yeah its also important to mention, that most players play runescape over a very long time... its not typical for people to start runescape and grind 10h a day for capes... most people play it for like 10 years, or longer
Actually, talking about wasted time, my teacher told me to write a fictional story, a fantasy fiction one to be exact, and I did. I poured my heart and soul into my story, I even put a whole story line, with a very meaningful plot, and I actually wanted to use this story to help people and I wanted to sell the book, and actually make progress out of it. UNTIL the teacher force-stopped the progress of my book, with drawings and all. Then, when it was time for it to be graded, I was doomed. We did have a show and tell of our stories, but people were only allowed to look at one page of the book. And when the teacher graded it, she acted like it was never there, and even though she promised to let us finish it, she didn't give us time to, proving that what she said was a whole lie. So, no one acknowledged my hard-work. It was a waste of time, but I still plan on selling the story once I finish it.
Don't think of it as a waste of time, an endevour like that means so much more than being limited to just one classroom anyways. See it rather the starting point to a project you want to publish out to the world. No one can stop you from writing. The grade isn't the important part but rather doing it for you in the end. Good luck in the future with it! :^>
Dude that sucks I’m sorry you had that experience. A great teacher can make any subject interesting for anyone which is an amazing thing. But sadly on the other side of the coin, a terrible teacher can crush a dream like a bug in a rug
Damn that fanfic is The Wheel of Time long. That's freaking impressive. The Wheel of Time is so good and so long. I worked as an analyst for a small wastewater testing company and it took me over two months to listen to The Wheel of Time working 40+ hours a week. Job was crazy I would work 15-18hr days sometimes because the other analysts were lazy bastards and I just kept getting more and more stuff piled on me. I had to work a three 12+hr days culminating in a 24hr day so that I could take a two week vacation meanwhile the other two guys that worked on my side got mad at me because I didn't help bring the 3 trash cans to the road once a week. I'm putting in 15-18hr days at least once a week because of my workload, which they never once offered to help, and then they got pissed at me because I didn't help bring out the trash cans to the road. Two guys three wheeled trash cans doesn't seem like a big deal but apparently it was to these lazy bastards. I did take the trash from the interior trash cans to the outer one, often cleaning theirs without being asked, but guess that wasn't good enough. These jerks workloads were so light they could go on vacation without having to work any overtime at all just pick the pace up a little and not spend hours surfing the internet or standing around BS'ing. Eventually I got tired of the crap and quit.
(18:04) The worst part for the guy who set out to type the names of the numbers from one to one million is that the task would have seemed like a monumental and significant task when begun in 1984...however, by the time he finished in 1998, a moderately clever child could easily write the small amount of code that would generate the list of numbers in seconds.

Yea I was born and raised in HOT SPRINGS ARKANSAS where that took place. Capone has many hideouts around Hot Springs & that building is now gone but they just started making plans to build on that site.
5:08 you failed to mention the odd modifiers like the "shinny charm" and the "matsuda method" both of which, reduce the odds of encounter significantly, now a days "shinny" hunting is pretty much an integral part of competitive players and it's no longer rare nor time consuming as it used to be.
I remember watching Geraldo and Al Capone's vault! What an epic fail. Geraldo never quite lived it down. But at least the special had some interesting info about Al Capone.
After much research about Simeon the Stylites, his habit was not a waste of time and did not end up in vain. His preaching conveyed temperance and compassion, and was marked with common sense and freedom from fanaticism. And especially taught against profanity and usury. Even the monks told him to stay where he was. One of the miracle I learned was that once when Simeon was ill, Theodosius sent three bishops to beg him to come down and allow himself to be attended by physicians. But Simeon preferred to leave his cure in the hands of God, and before long he recovered. And when his mother died, he asked that his mother's coffin be brought to him. And bid farewell. Not even his own mother could visit him and she embraces the monastic life style and knowing the statement which follows, "If we are worthy, we shall see one another in the life to come." Same principle stated in the bible for sure.
I remember playing Soul Silver back in 09. I was walking through a cave when I encountered a Zubat. I was tired, wanted a unique flying type on my team and caught it in a basic pokeball. Showed to my older brother, we both had bad sleeping habits back then, and suddenly he didn't need to sleep anymore. The Zubat was green. I never saw the sparkles indicating it was shiny. She has been a part on my Main team since, including having her in Scarlet today.
@22:30 The Nyan Cat animation is now more known from the Memz Trojan. When a computer is infected with this, restarting the computer will only run the Nyan Cat animation indefinitely.
Granted, with the new shiny odds and options like Cute Charm, filling your shiny dex doesn't take as long as one might think. But it's still a shit ton of work.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Wandering Inn was up there with longest works of fiction. Author puts out about 40k-50k words every single week and has done so for literally years with no end in sight.
The one about shinies needs to be updated because your numbers assume max odds. I’m the older games (gen 2) there’s a method to make 1/64 opposite gender hatches shiny, moving up to gen 4 you can get a 21.34% chance on all wild encounters using the cute charm glitch, and in newer games you can get odds as low as 1/100, 1/152. Also keeping in mind that a lot of players use bots to auto farm shinies for them (you can literally just leave the system plugged in and catch a few shinies every day with no effort) Not saying what the players did isn’t amazing (only caught 10 shinies in my Pokémon play through a myself), I’m just saying it’s not really that big of a waste and especially on the newer consoles I would assume they did some trading/botting
Yeah, and if you catch them all, then you get the Shiny Charm, which increases chances, and Action Replay/hacks were a big deal as well so you could easily use cheat codes to get every shiny. I definitely used AR back in the DS days, hahaha. I stopped using it though. And I think there's another method with breeding, by using a Pokemon with another language and a Ditto, or 2 Pokemon of different languages (so like one English name and one German, for example). I did this to get my shiny Duskull, but I think I had the Charm as well. xD This was all the way in UltraSun, and that was THE ONLY TIME I got the Charm by myself (aka, no cheats or anything, just trading with myself and others via GTS).
I was actually out at the library today reading one of my books about military animals, and Operation Acoustic Kitty was actually mentioned in my book. I like how this just tied into what I read today. I had a really great day to be honest.
This shouldn't be tolerated, 2.5 billion down the drain of tax payer money wasted on a hole in the ground, 20 million dollars of tax payer money and 5 years gone with a dead cat??? Wtf
11:33 oh man, I haven't heard of the superconducting super collider since I was a kid... It used to be in the news every so often in the 80s and early 90s.
To the dudes who got the shiny dexes They earn my total respect and should earn the respect of every single Pokémon player, every single person who has touched a game, who has played Pokémon go, or is even played the trading card game everyone should respect those two men

I'll tell ya worst waste of time. Depression!! I should of counted the endless hours I was stuck just laying there in bed being paralyzed not even interested in watching my favorite TH-cam channel "Be Amazed" there were times I did manage to get up and go lay on the couch,but still did nothing but try to sleep it away. The 2nd suckiest part of depression is you never know when it will hit you and never knowing when it will go away. So I say godspeed to any and all others that have or is going through it at the moment. Of course if you're going through it right now then you'll most likely not be in TH-cam comments wasting your life reading other people's posts. Just remember,there are better times ahead and don't take for granted and appreciate the hell out of your non- depression moments of your life!! ❤
It's hard to even catch all normal pokemon in Pokedex, I believe having all shiny is insane. I mean legendary, mythical, and event dedication must be a nightmare
The pokemon 1 is worse than you think You have legendarys that are hard to catch so even if you find a shiny have to actually catch it You have pokemon like abra who will teleport on their first turn Pokemon that only hatch from eggs And of course the 3 starters in each game
Funny thing about that...I also actually have a living shiny dex, one legit specimen of every type of Pokémon whose shiny forms are actually possible to get. And yeah...it's a pain to keep up, but still satisfying in its own right.
Its only "worse" if done in gen 2 or 3 Every gen after that made shiny hunting easier. Shiny charm and matsudo methods were introduced reducing the odds significantly Lets Go introduced overworld shinies along with if you had a chain of 30+ significantly higher odds of finding one Arceus added outbreaks with higher odds Sword&Shield had hacked dens you could join and introduced a Max Raid where you had a 1-100 chance of getting a shiny legendary Scarlet&Violet introced sandwiches that boost odds for 30 minutes (gotten 3-4 shinies with these in 30 minutes) and the DLC even added wild encounters for the first 8 gens of shinies So yeah, it doesn't take anywhere close to the time claimed in this video, especially if trading is allowed. The only tricky part are the shiny locked legendaries that were only released as events since you'll need to find someone willing to trade if you missed the event
about the max cape: That cape is not even the hardest one to get nowadays. There is also something thats called the completionist cape. For that one you need to have not only gotten all skills ln lvl 99 but several skills at lvl 120. And you need to have mastered every single minigame, finished every quest in the game. Found all the lore and several other really obnoxious timewasting requirements. If you think mastering mini games or finding all lore is easy you are oh so wrong. For the lore thing: you have a skill called dungeoneering that is a roquelike thing. You need to find every lorebook in there but its completly random wich one you get and there are over 100 different ones. If you are unlucky just that part can already take over 1000 hours. For the minigame you need to have cleared every minigame a certain amount off time. Some spam in the the thousands off times you need to clear them. And there are over 20 different ones. This also takes 10s off thousands hours to do. And this is all on top off the already ridiculous max cape requirements since you also do need to have the max cape to even be able to buy the completionist cape.
For someone growing up in the 90's and 2000's, watching a marathon of your favorite cartoon or animated shows was a wonderful thing. Before there were tv collections on DVDs or streaming services, the only way you'd get your fix on your favorite tv series was to watch it in a marathon. Even recording it on tape was a thing if you wanted to watch it in the future. I think some people can understand what I'm talking about!
Time enjoyed, isn't time wasted. Fanfic won't be a waste. Nor playing video games for more than 365 days of combined time. As long as you had fun doing it.
I most certainly don’t have a max cape… 😅 Missed opportunity to talk about the completionist cape and the trimmed completionist cape which make the max cape seem like a walk in the park.
The fanfic one where the people read it multiple times isn’t really that crazy I myself am able to read 300000 word books in a single day with large breaks and distractions so if you really put your mind to it you could probably read a 500000 word book in a day with breaks of course so to read the entire fan fic bible you would need at least 2 weeks with breaks and school with stuff between

Yea I was born and raised in HOT SPRINGS ARKANSAS where that took place. Capone has many hideouts around Hot Springs & that building is now gone but they just started making plans to build on that site.
Oh, Jerry Rivers… what a showman! 😂😂😂
I remember watching that shows well. Still reference it to Oak Island. Except OI is in its 10th yr
Cannot believe how badly the narrator botched and mispronounced Geraldo's name, repeatedly. Come on, you gotta know better!? 😒
5:08 you failed to mention the odd modifiers like the "shinny charm" and the "matsuda method" both of which, reduce the odds of encounter significantly, now a days "shinny" hunting is pretty much an integral part of competitive players and it's no longer rare nor time consuming as it used to be.
Its still rare but its way easier espeselly in pokemon go for exempel
Excuse me I don’t want to come of as rude but there is only one n in shiny
Now theres also outbreaks, which reduce it to a handy 1 in 158.1
Shiny odds vary vastly depending on how ur trying to get it
@@starlight0313 an now there are shiny boosing sandwiches that almost guarantee getting a shiny
My grandfather always said my life was one big waste of time. So far its been 46 years. I win!!!!! Thanks g pa!!!

What do you win exactly? After 46 years what's exactly have you "Won" out of it..?
Before this video, I thought I was a time-wasting person. Now I feel like a small ant compared to them :o
I remember watching Geraldo and Al Capone's vault! What an epic fail. Geraldo never quite lived it down. But at least the special had some interesting info about Al Capone.
I waste my whole life doing stupid things like talking to people
That’s socializing
What you said is just offensive. Ecoryzer. It isn't stupid nor a waste of time.

After much research about Simeon the Stylites, his habit was not a waste of time and did not end up in vain. His preaching conveyed temperance and compassion, and was marked with common sense and freedom from fanaticism. And especially taught against profanity and usury. Even the monks told him to stay where he was. One of the miracle I learned was that once when Simeon was ill, Theodosius sent three bishops to beg him to come down and allow himself to be attended by physicians. But Simeon preferred to leave his cure in the hands of God, and before long he recovered. And when his mother died, he asked that his mother's coffin be brought to him. And bid farewell. Not even his own mother could visit him and she embraces the monastic life style and knowing the statement which follows, "If we are worthy, we shall see one another in the life to come." Same principle stated in the bible for sure.
I remember playing Soul Silver back in 09. I was walking through a cave when I encountered a Zubat. I was tired, wanted a unique flying type on my team and caught it in a basic pokeball. Showed to my older brother, we both had bad sleeping habits back then, and suddenly he didn't need to sleep anymore. The Zubat was green. I never saw the sparkles indicating it was shiny. She has been a part on my Main team since, including having her in Scarlet today.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Wandering Inn was up there with longest works of fiction. Author puts out about 40k-50k words every single week and has done so for literally years with no end in sight.
longest one right now is the loud house revamped with about 13,000,000+ words
Is this original fiction though?
The one about shinies needs to be updated because your numbers assume max odds. I’m the older games (gen 2) there’s a method to make 1/64 opposite gender hatches shiny, moving up to gen 4 you can get a 21.34% chance on all wild encounters using the cute charm glitch, and in newer games you can get odds as low as 1/100, 1/152. Also keeping in mind that a lot of players use bots to auto farm shinies for them (you can literally just leave the system plugged in and catch a few shinies every day with no effort)
Not saying what the players did isn’t amazing (only caught 10 shinies in my Pokémon play through a myself), I’m just saying it’s not really that big of a waste and especially on the newer consoles I would assume they did some trading/botting
To much to read 😅
@@636zx You watch 30 minute videos.
@@CinnaSwirls ?
Yeah, and if you catch them all, then you get the Shiny Charm, which increases chances, and Action Replay/hacks were a big deal as well so you could easily use cheat codes to get every shiny. I definitely used AR back in the DS days, hahaha. I stopped using it though.
And I think there's another method with breeding, by using a Pokemon with another language and a Ditto, or 2 Pokemon of different languages (so like one English name and one German, for example). I did this to get my shiny Duskull, but I think I had the Charm as well. xD This was all the way in UltraSun, and that was THE ONLY TIME I got the Charm by myself (aka, no cheats or anything, just trading with myself and others via GTS).
I was actually out at the library today reading one of my books about military animals, and Operation Acoustic Kitty was actually mentioned in my book. I like how this just tied into what I read today. I had a really great day to be honest.
Let’s take the moment to appreciate how much effort BE AMAZED puts into his content for us. Great job

The Pokémon one was dedication. Not a waste of time. True fans will understand.
Highly subjective way of looking at it. Junk to some. Treasure to others.
I’ve stayed up late watching all one thousand Be Amazed videos!
To the dudes who got the shiny dexes
They earn my total respect and should earn the respect of every single Pokémon player, every single person who has touched a game, who has played Pokémon go, or is even played the trading card game everyone should respect those two men
Too bad it's easy to cheat them in for the first 7 gens. 8th gen requires a hacked switch.

I'll tell ya worst waste of time. Depression!! I should of counted the endless hours I was stuck just laying there in bed being paralyzed not even interested in watching my favorite TH-cam channel "Be Amazed" there were times I did manage to get up and go lay on the couch,but still did nothing but try to sleep it away. The 2nd suckiest part of depression is you never know when it will hit you and never knowing when it will go away. So I say godspeed to any and all others that have or is going through it at the moment. Of course if you're going through it right now then you'll most likely not be in TH-cam comments wasting your life reading other people's posts. Just remember,there are better times ahead and don't take for granted and appreciate the hell out of your non- depression moments of your life!! ❤
Haha 🤣 The joke at 28:12 made the whole video worthwhile!
I got a shiny tentacruel without even realizing it
Never thought it was THAT rare 😅🙃
I fished a shiny tentacool out of the small patch of water at the pkmn daycare. Later evolved it to tentacruel, of course.
Shiny tentacruel buddies.
@@JP-gd5ni nice and yessss 👏
It's hard to even catch all normal pokemon in Pokedex, I believe having all shiny is insane. I mean legendary, mythical, and event dedication must be a nightmare
There couldn't be any worse
It would be better if Alejandro binge-watched all the Be Amazed videos instead
15:45 that is kinda humiliating
The pokemon 1 is worse than you think
You have legendarys that are hard to catch so even if you find a shiny have to actually catch it
You have pokemon like abra who will teleport on their first turn
Pokemon that only hatch from eggs
And of course the 3 starters in each game

Funny thing about that...I also actually have a living shiny dex, one legit specimen of every type of Pokémon whose shiny forms are actually possible to get. And yeah...it's a pain to keep up, but still satisfying in its own right.
Its only "worse" if done in gen 2 or 3
Every gen after that made shiny hunting easier.
Shiny charm and matsudo methods were introduced reducing the odds significantly
Lets Go introduced overworld shinies along with if you had a chain of 30+ significantly higher odds of finding one
Arceus added outbreaks with higher odds
Sword&Shield had hacked dens you could join and introduced a Max Raid where you had a 1-100 chance of getting a shiny legendary
Scarlet&Violet introced sandwiches that boost odds for 30 minutes (gotten 3-4 shinies with these in 30 minutes) and the DLC even added wild encounters for the first 8 gens of shinies
So yeah, it doesn't take anywhere close to the time claimed in this video, especially if trading is allowed. The only tricky part are the shiny locked legendaries that were only released as events since you'll need to find someone willing to trade if you missed the event
22:01 OMG THIS DROVE ME CRAZY I THOUGHT MY DISCORD WAS GLITCHED OR SOMTHIN
about the max cape: That cape is not even the hardest one to get nowadays.
There is also something thats called the completionist cape.
For that one you need to have not only gotten all skills ln lvl 99 but several skills at lvl 120. And you need to have mastered every single minigame, finished every quest in the game. Found all the lore and several other really obnoxious timewasting requirements.
If you think mastering mini games or finding all lore is easy you are oh so wrong.
For the lore thing: you have a skill called dungeoneering that is a roquelike thing. You need to find every lorebook in there but its completly random wich one you get and there are over 100 different ones. If you are unlucky just that part can already take over 1000 hours.
For the minigame you need to have cleared every minigame a certain amount off time. Some spam in the the thousands off times you need to clear them. And there are over 20 different ones. This also takes 10s off thousands hours to do.
And this is all on top off the already ridiculous max cape requirements since you also do need to have the max cape to even be able to buy the completionist cape.

For someone growing up in the 90's and 2000's, watching a marathon of your favorite cartoon or animated shows was a wonderful thing.
Before there were tv collections on DVDs or streaming services, the only way you'd get your fix on your favorite tv series was to watch it in a marathon. Even recording it on tape was a thing if you wanted to watch it in the future.

Not finishing the super collider is probably the biggest scientific failure in American history
The fanfic one where the people read it multiple times isn’t really that crazy I myself am able to read 300000 word books in a single day with large breaks and distractions so if you really put your mind to it you could probably read a 500000 word book in a day with breaks of course so to read the entire fan fic bible you would need at least 2 weeks with breaks and school with stuff between
