I remember my grade school teacher asking the class "Do you know how Columbus found out the world was round?"...."He learned it in school!" then she showed us a picture of an ancient Greek statue of Atlas holding the round globe..
+Sergio Lobato I don't recall if my grade school teachers actually perpetuated the myth *but* by middle school our geography teacher made sure to emphasize the debate in Columbus day was how large the Earth was; one side thought it was smaller and the other larger. If it was smaller, he could safely voyage around with the amount of supplies he could carry. If it was larger, he couldn't. He was wrong about the size, but was fortunate no one thought maybe there were enough islands along the way, let alone two more continents. XD ... I wonder how much of this will be revealed as false? XD
+Mitchell Pittman Well, actually, war changes a lot. For example, during the days of the musket and early forms of the rifle and similar "boomsticks", war changed a lot, because all of a sudden people started fighting in large organized forces that marched around in disciplined formations. Which changed again in the 20th century when trench warfare started being a thing and the whole idea of marching to battle in bright colours promptly died out. Which changed again, also in the 20th century, when wars stopped being a battle between two powers and their respective allies and instead became the playground of global powers vying for control over global politics.' Which isn't even mentioning gas, atomic bombs, bombing raids, raiding, guerilla tactics etc.

Except nope! A fact can perfectly well be false. It doesn't become an opinion just because it's not true. "Paris is the most beautiful city in the world" is an opinion. "Paris is the capital of France" is a true fact. "Paris is the capital of Venezuela" is a false fact.
djpheeze Right, right, wrong. The third statement is false, just false. Truth is not subjective. You can verify the truth of the second two statements yourself. A fact is a statement that is verifiably true. Will it always be true? Not if the evidence changes, say, France invades Venezuela, occupies it, and the French decide to move their capitol to Maracaibo.
and cats are lovely, they don't need you to walk them and they don't need so much of your attention. they can walk themselves and all you need to do is fill the food bowl and open the door now amd then. and most cats don't bite even if you disturb them in their sleep. so to respond to your comment: i hate your dog
I had a fun time experiencing sashimi for the first time when I lived in japan for 8 months. This older couple invited me and my friends over for dinner and we had sashimi because of the wife's diet. The shrimp i had was still wriggling on the plate they served it with. In addition to spitting up bubbles. I know it's all spastic stuff post-dead, but I felt a little bad eating him with it squirming in front of me - almost like I was a giant eating some villager alive or something
"Dogs are better than cats" Except NOPE! Cats are cuter and far less needy and you don't have to worry about getting sued unlike dog owners whose dogs decide they like the tast of neighbors.
Cats are also selfharm stoppers and stress relievers! My cat Pepsi stopped me from cutting my legs by sitting on my legs then she sat there until I calmed down. And then she picked up the rasor with her mouth and woke my mum up. Cats are very good for calming stressful people and mentally ill!
As someone who works for a plane ground handling service, emptying the toilet is extremely clean and most of us prefer doing water/toilet service over crawling in the planes holding area to throw 200 bags for a few meters.
I like dogs and I like cats, I don't get how some people can only demonstrate how much they like one by saying how much they hate the other. I don't have a dog because it's not fair on them to leave them alone all day while I am at work , although I would love to have one. I have 2 cats but they are much more self-reliant.

also no need to choose posting youtube videos as his main source of income. respect his choices, just like you would expect us to read your comment and respect your opinion.
TheXnaut Your example on cats differs depending on the breed (for both cats and for dogs). On top of that, this is a youtube channel, not a business. Yes he makes money, but he makes money by posting videos of his opinions on what peaks his interest in culture. If he was selling a product on the market, I would agree with you. But he is not marketing anything other than his voice, so he has no reason to say anything that does not truly represent himself.

TBDGamer Exactly why does there always have to be a debate some people are cat people and some are dog people usually people like both but just like one more
I'd argue the "body heat through the head" one with the correct data because from a logical standpoint I think it makes sense. With the exception of the hands, the neck and head are typically the most exposed body parts. Thanks to your clothing, much less body heat is escaping from everywhere else. So if we were to determine where most of a person's body heat escapes from, on average, I'd be willing to bet that the head would be tops.
Welp, I think I've found the next contender for another "Things you believe that are actually false" video. I used to think white chocolate was made primarily from the carob bean, but it turns out white chocolate really IS a form of chocolate. That's cool actually, my misinformation allows me to now truly believe white chocolate is actual chocolate. Or I'm still a jackass and there's something completely different I'm not seeing, because it's late and I don't want to read a thousand different Wikipedia pages.
No, legally, white chocolate doesn't exist. True chocolate contains pulverized roasted cocoa bean, consisting of cocoa butter and cocoa solids. White chocolate contains no cocoa solids and thus technically is "white confectionery coating."
+Quotenspartaner It's both: From a human's perspective you could say a human year is like 7 dog years (in one year a dog ages 7 times as much as a human). From a dog's perspective you'd say a dog year is 7 human years (at one year old, a dog is like a 7 year old human) Either way, it's all stupid.
+Quotenspartaner The term "dog year" is ambiguous because of how English works, and can be understood to be either 7 years or 1/7 of a year. The version you wrote in your original comment is the more widespread version; I was trying to simply explain why the "mistake" was made in the video.
Here's an interesting fact: if you got all the flat earthers in the world to hold hands and form a line around the world, two thirds of them would drown.
That 'heat loss through head' crap is based on US Army conducted studies about the loss of body heat in extremely cold temperatures in 1960's. And they used soldier dressed in special ( ECWCS ) suit ... with nothing but a steel helmet on his head. So .. yeah.
+Ronny Finseth Heat loss is based on surface area. Two ears and face aren't that bad. Hat and scarf can easily reduce the heat loss there to minimum. Thin pants are worse.
Well number 9 only exists because of misleading language. In Polish for example "ziarno kawy" which stands for coffee bean actually literally means: grain/seed of coffee and there is no confusion as to what part of the plant those little buggers are.
+A Regular Brit, Jesus! Are you 7 or what??? Your grammar and spelling are atrocious, and even what you're saying is that of a spoiled rotten 7 year old. Do you feel like a big man starving your cat? Aawww, you get mad when kitty won't come sit in your lap? So you punish it by starving it? Piece of shit.
Well my cat's gone missing and I might very well fall back into clinical depression because of - couple of mental "disabilitys" I have. People don't realise how much something as simple as a cat can effect your life in Dutch a massive way, I have a mild form of autism called aspergers where I'm a terrible socialist and don't have friends (Typical Internet teenager) but my cat helped me out a hell of a lot, but now she's gone, but everyone's telling me it's probably gonna come back
+Willi Kampmann Like in many other cases, common language use doesn't adhere to technical terminology and its definitions. Just look it up in any general dictionary: "2: made from, obtained from, or containing plants or plant products " (Merriam-Webster) "[C] (US informal veggie) a plant, root, seed, or pod that is used as food, especially in dishes that are not sweet" (Cambridge Dictionary) Or German: "1 Sammelbezeichnung für alle krautigen Pflanzen, mit Ausnahme der Kartoffel und Erdbeere, die im Garten oder auf dem Feld angebaut werden und dem Menschen roh oder gekocht als Nahrung dienen" (DWDS)
Stephan Kerbl That was exactly my point: coffee beans aren't the only produce from plants that are incorrectly categorized in common language. Nobody really cares. Tomatoes taste like vegetables, so do avocados, and coffee beans look like beans. Because of that, the “false fact” about coffee beans is a lame one.
Tomatoes are a vegetable. They're not animals or fungus. They happen to be the fruit of the plant, but fruits, stems, seeds, roots, and leaves are parts of a plant, vegetation. We don't say potatoes aren't vegetables because they're roots. Roots are vegetables, fruits are vegetables, leaves are vegetables. Ham isn't a vegetable, chicken legs aren't vegetables. How we classify them in a grocery store isn't the same as their botanical status. Likewise, grocery classifications therefore aren't any more inaccurate either, since they're considered vegetables for culinary purposes. Ever had tomato jam, or tomato ice cream, or tomato jello, or tomato pie for dessert?
Sushi is not anything consumed with vinegared rice. Sushi is vinegared rice and what goes with it, together. Also, modern sushi is just a 'fast version' of an old way of fermenting fish, and those old ways of fermenting fish are still called sushi. So funazushi, or other types of narezushi, are fermented fish that are served without rice... and they are still called sushi. They're just not popular because they taste funky, haha.
+ColbOnTheCob The body heat one, which is one of the few that actually needs a source rather than being common knowledge: www.bmj.com/rapid-response/2011/11/02/head-cover-cold
+The Hominid If his source was QI then he would know that while Thomas Crapper didn't invent the flushing toilet, he did invent the ballcock ... which is even funnier.
are you saying that the only reason people think the world is round is because they blink so much that they are unable to process the fact that the earth is round? so the reason people have not discovered that the earth is flat is because... they blink a lot? but then what about satellite pictures and what astronauts see? are you saying that every government in the world are lying to every one that the earth is round for no apparent reason? what about gravity, what about other stars and planets, are they flat too? why do you believe the earth is flat?! or maybe this is just a theory you thought at the top of your head just for funnsies and now im getting weirdly passionate about it?!?!?!
Fact 11: The thumbnail has nothing to do with the video, except for the coffee bean fact. The thumbnail icon is from Futurama in the episode where everyone get a $100 tax payment and Fry buys 100 cups of coffee for the caffeine. Yes i'm a nerd, stop picking on me for knowing my my naughties animated comedies.
+Felix Nielsen Funny thing is he says it's mostly cooked fish like smoked salmon, but smoked salmon is raw fish. That's why when you heat it up it cooks, changing colour and becoming flaky like any other raw fish does when you cook it.
Felix Nielsen Why do you say smoked salmon is not raw? Most varieties are cold smoked so they have never been exposed to heat. Anything uncooked I would consider raw.
There are many way to prepare food. Picked food is not raw in the same sense either, yet it has not been cocked. I suppose it's really a question of definitions. Anyway, there is a pretty big difference between difference between regular raw salmon and smokes salmon, I hope you'll agree.
Fun fact, my family and I had a flight delayed for 4 hours once because when they were pumping out the waste from the previous flight the hose actually exploded (right where it connects to the plane). It made a huge mess, and they considered changing our flight to another plane. In the end they cleaned it up and simply delayed the flight (because waiting on another plane would have actually taken longer). I got to talk to one of the people who had to clean it, it was as bad as you imagine but even they said its the kind of thing they'll probably look back on and laugh about.
+Caleb Bonney Cats and dogs are just for different sorts of people. People who want someone or something to worship them will like dogs. People who are more independent and don't need someone or something to worship them will like cats. Most people are probably in the middle and could enjoy both pets.
+Alexander “'Xander'” Sack I find large butts attractive, and I am incapable of dishonesty on the matter. My male peers out there are unable to disagree.
The main thing that's wrong about the dog years is that in reality one dog year equals one human year. "Dog years" is just nonsense. It's made up because people feel bad for their dog not having the same amount of birthdays we do, but I don't think dogs give two shits about that. It falls into the same category as people who (unironically) celebrate their pet's birthday with special pet food and presents, and those who even buy birthday and christmas presents for themselves that's supposedly from their pet. "Oooh, look what Mittens got me for christmas!". Horseshit!
Of course they do, but that wasn't my point. It's just complete bogus that people want to tie the dog's development (and lifespan) to the equivalent age of a human being. "My dog has reached doggy puberty, so he must be twelve-thirteen dog years old." No, he's still one and a half to two years old.
Sure. But the concept of dog years does do some good by providing a way for kids to understand why their pets are old and tired despite just being a few years old.
+elizabeth trudgill correct, but lets start with sphere, so we don't confuse the Flat Earth Society way too much. There's plenty of loose Turkeys allready :)
+Dick Coughlan Someone can't admit to being wrong it seems. Come down off that high horse once in a while. You'll enjoy life more. Also thanks for reminding me why I stopped following you.
+Noel Alexiusson Facts are things that can be proven truthful or false. Opinions are subjective and so are a little trickier. Facts can be wrong--example if I said "I"m wearing a pink hat" but I am clearly not, it is an false fact.
I'm not sure, I've never actually seen anyone get sick from sushi, but I'd imagine it's maybe one of those things where you get "sick" due to your body not being used to it. That wouldn't involve throwing up though, it would likely just involve uncomfortable bathroom trips.
Freshness doesn't mean pathogen-free. Cooked fully does however. Some people, more likely people with weakened immune systems, can become sick off of Sashimi because it's raw. Most of the time, and for most people, it won't be a problem because said food is well washed and whatnot, but the whole reason we cook food to begin with is that it's the only way to remove all microbes from the food.
Also there are different pathogens in different areas. Eating raw food from any country that isn't your home, or even region, puts you at risk of getting sick. This is also part of the reason you sometimes are required/recommended to get immunizations when traveling abroad. Don't worry though eventually your immune system will get used to it and not make such a fuss.
dogs are rude, they scream at you and spit on you and try to knock you over if you're smaller than them... cats are chill and polite by comparison, and hilarious.
+Ballistic Gecko *Facepalm* So when a dog is 7, us humans are only 1? Think about that please. So When our dog turns 21... we turn 3? *Facepalm* Shame on the two people who thumbed up this.
+JDeppFan2272 yes, that's exactly what the myth says: by the time a dog has reached one year old in human terms, it will be in an equivalent stage of development to a seven year old human. by the time a dog has reached three years old in human terms, it will be in an equivalent stage of development to a twenty-one year old human. dogs' lifespan are on average 7 times shorter than people's therefore (according to the myth) they must age seven times faster and so seven dog years lasts one human year.
+joshuaoosterhuis Read my post. You don't go by Dog years here. You go by human years. So saying that 7 DOG years = 1 Human year is backwards. You say 1 Human year = 7 dog years. If you say 7 Dog years = 1 human year, you are saying when a dog turns 7. As in, has his 7th human year on this earth, you are saying WE turn 1. Edit: You say it from the human perspective. At least that is how I have always thought it because I am a human, so why would I look at it from the dogs perspective? Edit of Edit: This is starting to confuse me because it is so idiotic that anyone is trying to say 7 dog years is 1 human year. OK, here is how it works, 1 year rotation around the sun is 1 HUMAN year. The dog ages 7 times faster than us. SO, saying 7 dog years = 1 human year is backwards for me because that would suggest that 7 rotations around the sun would = 1 human year, making human years 7 times longer. That is honestly the best way I can explain it. The video got it right IMO. 3rd Edit: Then again, none of this matters cause it is factually not true anyways. I just think it is stupid to say it from the dogs perspective unless you are a dog.
+JDeppFan2272 we've established this myth is about ageing and not rotations around the sun. the fact you confused the two doesn't make you right. "7 dog years = 1 human year" and "1 human year = 7 dog years" is the EXACT same equation, just the other way round, c'mon son...
joshuaoosterhuis I did not "confuse" anything. If you are talking about this subject you should go by human years, cause that is what WE go by. It may be "the exact same equation just the other way around", that doesn't mean it is correct. And don't call me "son", son.

If this video came out before Ironman 3, I would've been more surprised about the #10 misconception.
The beginning of this is gold.... you sirs... have won yourself a subscriber!
Did the people in that elevator clip die? The guy mostly..
I thought that it look deadly AF
Yes
Probably lost a leg
Just searched it
He was trapped and his lungs were crushed and he died before he was pulled out

no need to hate on cats lol. I am a cat guy but I don't hate dogs, just preference.
also no need to choose posting youtube videos as his main source of income.
respect his choices, just like you would expect us to read your comment and respect your opinion.
+Nico las It's bad business to polarize your audience. But cats are better, they can at least make their way home.
TheXnaut Your example on cats differs depending on the breed (for both cats and for dogs).
On top of that, this is a youtube channel, not a business. Yes he makes money, but he makes money by posting videos of his opinions on what peaks his interest in culture.
If he was selling a product on the market, I would agree with you. But he is not marketing anything other than his voice, so he has no reason to say anything that does not truly represent himself.
+TheXnaut Dogs can too? Assuming you don't live in "We need respirators to avoid inhaling too much coal dust." town.
I dunno why but the Adam "nope!" sound clip and images always cracks me up in these videos.
Thanks to this video, if I'm ever in a falling elevator, I'm just going wait calmly like a badass while everyone else freaks out about their impending doom. Then when we survive, I'm just going to stroll out as if nothing happened.
With maybe a broken leg, you'll limp out, as if nothing major happened.
+Sir.Bantalot
Maybe in civilized part of the world the elevators have those "large shock absorbers", but the elevator I was jumping/crawling out as kid didn't. It got stuck a lot, plus many power cuts, but it never ever fell, not even 1 cm.
+Sir.Bantalot hopefully you'll be wearing a diaper as well.
Thug life!!!

when your "nope" pops out, it's pretty hilarious.. :D kudos to you..
I'd argue the "body heat through the head" one with the correct data because from a logical standpoint I think it makes sense. With the exception of the hands, the neck and head are typically the most exposed body parts. Thanks to your clothing, much less body heat is escaping from everywhere else. So if we were to determine where most of a person's body heat escapes from, on average, I'd be willing to bet that the head would be tops.

Brain blown with the coffee "bean".
More mind blowing when finding out that white chocolate isn't actually chocolate. (I still secretly tell myself it's still chocolate).
+Spog Zallagi what is it?
Welp, I think I've found the next contender for another "Things you believe that are actually false" video. I used to think white chocolate was made primarily from the carob bean, but it turns out white chocolate really IS a form of chocolate. That's cool actually, my misinformation allows me to now truly believe white chocolate is actual chocolate. Or I'm still a jackass and there's something completely different I'm not seeing, because it's late and I don't want to read a thousand different Wikipedia pages.
Really?
To me that was just a matter of terminology on the level of "tomato isn't a vegetable, it's a fruit"
No, legally, white chocolate doesn't exist. True chocolate contains
pulverized roasted cocoa bean, consisting of cocoa butter and cocoa
solids. White chocolate contains no cocoa solids and thus technically is "white confectionery coating."

3:00 the other way around
its 7 dog years for 1 human year :D
Yep!
+Quotenspartaner
It's both: From a human's perspective you could say a human year is like 7 dog years (in one year a dog ages 7 times as much as a human).
From a dog's perspective you'd say a dog year is 7 human years (at one year old, a dog is like a 7 year old human)
Either way, it's all stupid.
+Edan Coll im confused but i trust you are right
+Quotenspartaner
The term "dog year" is ambiguous because of how English works, and can be understood to be either 7 years or 1/7 of a year. The version you wrote in your original comment is the more widespread version; I was trying to simply explain why the "mistake" was made in the video.

That 'heat loss through head' crap is based on US Army conducted studies about the loss of body heat in extremely cold temperatures in 1960's. And they used soldier dressed in special ( ECWCS ) suit ... with nothing but a steel helmet on his head. So .. yeah.
+Stenly Rex You are correct sir.
Thank you.
+Stenly Rex But you do lose most heat from the head, cause mostly its the only thing not covered by clothing
+Ronny Finseth Heat loss is based on surface area. Two ears and face aren't that bad. Hat and scarf can easily reduce the heat loss there to minimum. Thin pants are worse.
Stenly Rex Agreed. The body core and appendages are by far more important.

Your definition of "probably", with regard to the title, is tremendously generous. These trivia snippets are all just common knowledge.
Well number 9 only exists because of misleading language. In Polish for example "ziarno kawy" which stands for coffee bean actually literally means: grain/seed of coffee and there is no confusion as to what part of the plant those little buggers are.

A coffee bean is as much a bean as a tomato is a vegetable. But who cares about botanical correctness?
Not me. So bore the fuck off.
+Willi Kampmann Like in many other cases, common language use doesn't adhere to technical terminology and its definitions. Just look it up in any general dictionary:
"2: made from, obtained from, or containing plants or plant products " (Merriam-Webster)
"[C] (US informal veggie) a plant, root, seed, or pod that is used as food, especially in dishes that are not sweet" (Cambridge Dictionary)
Or German:
"1 Sammelbezeichnung für alle krautigen Pflanzen, mit Ausnahme der Kartoffel und Erdbeere, die im Garten oder auf dem Feld angebaut werden und dem Menschen roh oder gekocht als Nahrung dienen" (DWDS)
Stephan Kerbl That was exactly my point: coffee beans aren't the only produce from plants that are incorrectly categorized in common language. Nobody really cares. Tomatoes taste like vegetables, so do avocados, and coffee beans look like beans. Because of that, the “false fact” about coffee beans is a lame one.
Tomatoes are a vegetable. They're not animals or fungus. They happen to be the fruit of the plant, but fruits, stems, seeds, roots, and leaves are parts of a plant, vegetation. We don't say potatoes aren't vegetables because they're roots. Roots are vegetables, fruits are vegetables, leaves are vegetables. Ham isn't a vegetable, chicken legs aren't vegetables. How we classify them in a grocery store isn't the same as their botanical status. Likewise, grocery classifications therefore aren't any more inaccurate either, since they're considered vegetables for culinary purposes. Ever had tomato jam, or tomato ice cream, or tomato jello, or tomato pie for dessert?
*facepalm* There are no vegetables in botany. That's agriculture.

Sushi is not anything consumed with vinegared rice. Sushi is vinegared rice and what goes with it, together.
Also, modern sushi is just a 'fast version' of an old way of fermenting fish, and those old ways of fermenting fish are still called sushi. So funazushi, or other types of narezushi, are fermented fish that are served without rice... and they are still called sushi. They're just not popular because they taste funky, haha.

***** What about what the astronauts see?
are you saying that the only reason people think the world is round is because they blink so much that they are unable to process the fact that the earth is round? so the reason people have not discovered that the earth is flat is because... they blink a lot?
but then what about satellite pictures and what astronauts see? are you saying that every government in the world are lying to every one that the earth is round for no apparent reason? what about gravity, what about other stars and planets, are they flat too? why do you believe the earth is flat?! or maybe this is just a theory you thought at the top of your head just for funnsies and now im getting weirdly passionate about it?!?!?!

Ok, I admit it, I was sorta convinced that sushi was raw, but other than that, no real big news.
+Felix Nielsen Funny thing is he says it's mostly cooked fish like smoked salmon, but smoked salmon is raw fish. That's why when you heat it up it cooks, changing colour and becoming flaky like any other raw fish does when you cook it.
+Vink Smokes salmon is not raw, nor is any other smoked meat.
+Felix Nielsen is salmon meat
Felix Nielsen Why do you say smoked salmon is not raw? Most varieties are cold smoked so they have never been exposed to heat. Anything uncooked I would consider raw.
There are many way to prepare food. Picked food is not raw in the same sense either, yet it has not been cocked. I suppose it's really a question of definitions.
Anyway, there is a pretty big difference between difference between regular raw salmon and smokes salmon, I hope you'll agree.
Fun fact, my family and I had a flight delayed for 4 hours once because when they were pumping out the waste from the previous flight the hose actually exploded (right where it connects to the plane). It made a huge mess, and they considered changing our flight to another plane. In the end they cleaned it up and simply delayed the flight (because waiting on another plane would have actually taken longer). I got to talk to one of the people who had to clean it, it was as bad as you imagine but even they said its the kind of thing they'll probably look back on and laugh about.
Cats are significantly better than dogs
+Caleb Bonney Cats and dogs are just for different sorts of people. People who want someone or something to worship them will like dogs. People who are more independent and don't need someone or something to worship them will like cats. Most people are probably in the middle and could enjoy both pets.

The main thing that's wrong about the dog years is that in reality one dog year equals one human year. "Dog years" is just nonsense. It's made up because people feel bad for their dog not having the same amount of birthdays we do, but I don't think dogs give two shits about that. It falls into the same category as people who (unironically) celebrate their pet's birthday with special pet food and presents, and those who even buy birthday and christmas presents for themselves that's supposedly from their pet. "Oooh, look what Mittens got me for christmas!". Horseshit!
Dogs mature at a faster rate than humans, at a rate roughly 7 times as fast...
Of course they do, but that wasn't my point. It's just complete bogus that people want to tie the dog's development (and lifespan) to the equivalent age of a human being. "My dog has reached doggy puberty, so he must be twelve-thirteen dog years old." No, he's still one and a half to two years old.
Sure. But the concept of dog years does do some good by providing a way for kids to understand why their pets are old and tired despite just being a few years old.
Someone is cranky because their dog forgot about their birthday this year lol
For dogs, EVERY DAY is a birthday. I know I count every day *I* get free food as a birthday.

Wait. People get sick off sashimi? Why? It's often fresh caught. That day even.
I'm not sure, I've never actually seen anyone get sick from sushi, but I'd imagine it's maybe one of those things where you get "sick" due to your body not being used to it. That wouldn't involve throwing up though, it would likely just involve uncomfortable bathroom trips.
I mean it can be really rich I suppose. I can't handle more than a few pieces.
Unless sashimi is different in Canada, I've had it many times and haven't become ill from it. Not sure why people would.
Freshness doesn't mean pathogen-free. Cooked fully does however. Some people, more likely people with weakened immune systems, can become sick off of Sashimi because it's raw. Most of the time, and for most people, it won't be a problem because said food is well washed and whatnot, but the whole reason we cook food to begin with is that it's the only way to remove all microbes from the food.
Also there are different pathogens in different areas. Eating raw food from any country that isn't your home, or even region, puts you at risk of getting sick. This is also part of the reason you sometimes are required/recommended to get immunizations when traveling abroad. Don't worry though eventually your immune system will get used to it and not make such a fuss.
Caaaaaaats!!!!

Omg I love how everyone basically stopped listening after he hated our cats

You got the dog myth wrong, it's 7 DOG years = 1 HUMAN year. you got it the wrong way around
+Ballistic Gecko *Facepalm* So when a dog is 7, us humans are only 1? Think about that please. So When our dog turns 21... we turn 3? *Facepalm*
Shame on the two people who thumbed up this.
+JDeppFan2272
yes, that's exactly what the myth says: by the time a dog has reached one year old in human terms, it will be in an equivalent stage of development to a seven year old human. by the time a dog has reached three years old in human terms, it will be in an equivalent stage of development to a twenty-one year old human. dogs' lifespan are on average 7 times shorter than people's therefore (according to the myth) they must age seven times faster and so seven dog years lasts one human year.
+joshuaoosterhuis Read my post. You don't go by Dog years here. You go by human years. So saying that 7 DOG years = 1 Human year is backwards. You say 1 Human year = 7 dog years.
If you say 7 Dog years = 1 human year, you are saying when a dog turns 7. As in, has his 7th human year on this earth, you are saying WE turn 1.
Edit: You say it from the human perspective. At least that is how I have always thought it because I am a human, so why would I look at it from the dogs perspective?
Edit of Edit: This is starting to confuse me because it is so idiotic that anyone is trying to say 7 dog years is 1 human year. OK, here is how it works, 1 year rotation around the sun is 1 HUMAN year. The dog ages 7 times faster than us. SO, saying 7 dog years = 1 human year is backwards for me because that would suggest that 7 rotations around the sun would = 1 human year, making human years 7 times longer. That is honestly the best way I can explain it. The video got it right IMO.
3rd Edit: Then again, none of this matters cause it is factually not true anyways. I just think it is stupid to say it from the dogs perspective unless you are a dog.
+JDeppFan2272 we've established this myth is about ageing and not rotations around the sun. the fact you confused the two doesn't make you right. "7 dog years = 1 human year" and "1 human year = 7 dog years" is the EXACT same equation, just the other way round, c'mon son...
joshuaoosterhuis I did not "confuse" anything. If you are talking about this subject you should go by human years, cause that is what WE go by. It may be "the exact same equation just the other way around", that doesn't mean it is correct. And don't call me "son", son.
