Not _completely._ We could probably figure out steam engines pretty fast if given skilled blacksmiths (or years to learn to bang some iron ourselves) and expendable operators (for the ones that go boom). Could potentially help with establishing some branches of maths before their time, too. Particularly anything cryptologic (that needs machines to calculate within any reasonable timeframe). And invent paper if that isn't a thing yet. And worse comes to worst, we always have the skill to spin some poor-quality cordage and make our own super impure iron blooms. Oh, and making salt from saltwater in sunny regions, or potentially play around with urine if I remember any cody labs (it was his channel that did those, right?) videos. And staying away from glowy rocks. If they got computers (or at least transistors) then I can suddenly do a whole lot more tho!.. :p ...

Well, in truth even if you can't draw the world map "well", just knowing there is a whole other continent in the way would be a big help for that trip...
It's really not. Like Twitter isnt going to break your door down and kill you in your sleep or shoot you because you looked suspicious, or wrestle you to the ground and suffocate you, or wrestle you to the ground and shoot you at point blank range. If you protest peacefully coos will literally show up in riot gear and breath the shit out of you or unmarked vans will make you disappear. We live in an actual police state and you are complaining about Twitter. Dear, average out of touch Tucker Carlson viewer please come back to reality.

Well this has all just proven to me one thing that i've been speculating on for a while. I need to print out the entire internet and laminate it all into a big manual I can just keep on me at all times in case I time travel.
Someone once posted the entirety of Wikipedia, very outdated by now of course, in book form. It was the size of a small child when I saw an image of it being used as a doorstopper.
There are 6,500,000 articles of wiki, let's say 1 page per 1 article (which is a very optimistic estimation), 1 million pages of paper is 100 meters tall (328.33ft), so 6 times that is 600 meters (1969ft). If you pack them into books of 1000 pages (10cm thick) that'll be 6000 books

That’s awesome I was literally just wondering the other day what information I actually could give people from the past that would be helpful without my phone 😂😂
Ya know, all you'd need to know is where u r, what time it is, look at the sun, and say it's noon, it'll be in the west, so if u were in Spain u'd wanna go directly away from the sun, so it'd actually be super easy to find the new world.
To be fair, waterproof shoes, especially on ships back then, would be a good idea, if you could dry them off if water gets in the top of the shoe. Plus, the tenders (small boats bringing people from ship to shore) could beach themselves before it reaches land, so you might need water proof shoe's to walk from the tender to where the beach sand isn't wet from the waves coming on shore.
honestly in this scenario I feel like I wouldn't be completely useless. Like, west. You need to sail west. That's not hard. And I could pretty easily tell Columbus "hey, it's not a straight shot to Asia. There's a whole other massive landmass worth 2 continents in between you and Asia, and if you try and go around it north, you'll freeze, and since the panama canal doesn't exist yet you need to go around it south, which is like, VERY close to the absolute southern point of the world, and it will take you over a year to get to Asia since you don't know it's geography yet, so... might not be worth it. However if you try colonizing the landmass, you could get some serious street cred... but it has inhabitants, and don't enslave them. Leave them be, colonize the parts of the land they don't occupy, make trade with them, try to be friends. Otherwise history will remember you as a fucking monster. Anyways the new continent is about a months sail trip west, good luck!" That was pretty complicated but I COULD do it.

Well i mean It isnt hard. Just put water in a confined place that IS small enough, boil the hell of It until It create enough pressure to move something, make It move something round shape and you basically did 20 century. Or atleast 19 century in medieval age
@@MarcosAlexandre-no3qx noy really that simple. You also need to develop coal industry and metallurgy. Fun fact. Steam engines were invented in ancient Greece, maybe even earlier, but because they didn't know about coal it couldn't produce enough power to do anything useful. But, yeah, steam engine would be among the easier things to reinvent. Printing books, for example, would require a lot more skill and knowledge.
@@nickknife9681 yeah, but i think they had coal in the medieval ages or atleast they knew how to burn wood and from it you can make some coal. Not effective as the mined but effective. As for metallurgy the first engine wasn't made exactly with metal if i remember well, or it was but they didn't before because you didn't have a motive to bend metal, so if you can create in a wood form just to demonstrate for them and explain that metal made is more resilient it would give a motive for them to improve metallurgy. But yeah the steam engine is the most simple yet revolutonary discovery
Idk why, but when I thought the title said 1942 and I saw a beach, I was worried that the people from the past wanted him to solve Pearl Harbor. Very glad that didn't happen
a great exercise in maturity is finding or writing your own time-travelers field guide just in case and carry that with you at all times. Include psychological norms and regulations for each era (useful for both genders, but sometimes more useful to one gender to avoid being burned on a stake or being tied up and lowered into water) as ancient people were on rare occasions scared of ideas, also bring some technologies that would be easy to create and seem like magic to its time and also simple to advanced knowledge about poisonous and medicinal plants and how to identify them without pictures, knowledge about how to navigate without technology + how to make soap and toilet paper.
I would invent the wardrobe. Apparently that came much later then people think. I feel thats something I'd be capable of. I could also draw a rough map of the world.
Jokes on all of you, I've thought of this and I have no less than 5 ebooks downloaded on my phone who's singular purpose is to rebuild civilization from the ground up. Principia Mathematica, How to Invent Everything, NAND to Tetris, a couple of other computing books, and How to Rebuild Civilization in the Aftermath of a Cataclysm. I think I'm covered here, except for a document on the USB standard (if I ever want to charge my phone again), a document on the metric standard (so I can measure the volts, since that's required for the previous step), a book on plant and mineral identification (if that sort of thing doesn't already exist in the disaster rebuilding books), the AVX512 standard, the C standard, and perhaps a book on linear algebra because that's useful for quantum computing. But those are details, honestly; I've got my ass covered on general data, I think.
honestly just the telling them not to enslave the natives would be helpful enough. That is as long as they trust the word of a time traveler that much.

Again, I think any average citizen could be of SOME use. Where do we go? To the Canary Islands. There you wait till the wind blows eastweards, and follow it. Also, by the time America was discovered, scurvy was till a thing, and nobody new what caused it, so just telling them to take some lemmons on the ride would be a good advise. EVERYBODY can draw a world map with the continents. Keep in mind that they ignored the existence of the whole american continent. Just drawing a landmass from north to south, between Europe and Asia, would blow their mind. Also, you are in position to save all nations the time of searching for an east west pasage, by telling them that it simply does not exist, they can either border the continent at the south, or cross by land just in panama (almost in the midlle) to reach the Pacific. You are welcome colonialists of the world. Also , information in advance about the Incas and the Aztecas would be of great use, even the bare knowledge of their existence, so you can slaughter and pillage them more effectively. Telling the spanish that their arrival would cause tsunamis of deseases that would crash the social structure of the inhabitants for several generations, and kill 90% of people of the area, also would be of great advantage. Finally, I would have a talk with Columbus, and tell him not be an ash*le to his people, so they don`t ask the crown to remove him after some years, and to renegotiate his deal with the Kings, because there was no way they were going to give him 10% of all the wealth extracted from America (wich was the inital deal)
We also know that washing our hands in hot water helps stop disease. We know that disease is caused by little organisms, where we could inject ourselves with weak ones to give ourselves immunity. We know that an atom is made of electrons, neutrons, and proton, how this effects some physical properties, and what this means. We know that the earth revolves around the sun. We know a lot of math. This has three problems though. First off, I don't speak Spanish. I'd only be able to speak to some Brits, inefficiently. So youd have to brush up the language of the people your talking to. The second problem is that spreading this knowledge has consequences we already know about. Some knowledge is a threat to authorities. Get yourself some legal or physical protection before making moves, for instance by helping out an authority figure first and earning a position. Or bringing a gun. Third, this is boring. You're from the future. You live in a democracy, and you are already shaking up what's probably a monarchy. What's a bit more? Tell them about the democratic structure of the world, how it's working out, and compare it to our few remaining monarchies (with real power) which aren't doing so hot by comparison.
@@digaddog6099 you would definitely want a position of "king's advisor" and not "random peasant who knows way too much" to avoid getting burned as a witch (threat to the status quo). And honestly just our math and basic geography would be helpful. (Also germ theory, which was met with so much resistance by arrogant doctors because "a gentleman's hands are clean" despite just doing an autopsy 3 minutes prior) But the worst part, any king would be envious of even a poor westerner today, electricity, education and free access to libraries, all the spices just available in any grocery store (food abundance in general), speed of transport, air conditioning. Show them how the rich live and they would be beyond jealous of even today's figurehead monarchs who barely have to do anything and get the peak of modern luxuries. (But they would like the power of say the Saudi Kings)
Best guess is to not visibly age, or the device automatically shifts the return time to match the time spent in the past. (Very common in time travel stories to have both points move forward together for plot reasons)
@@asher879 it took columbus 36 days to cross the atlantic and 6 months to sail to India from Portugal. Depending how long you stay in the past can affect it, also if you make a bunch of 1 day trips and return to the momemt you left each time you would definitely accumulate age from all the time spent not in the present and the easiest way to track that is to just account for it every time you time travel. (And its clear he's the type to abuse the timetravel device and spend a cumulatively long time period in different ages, ie Zack has made multiple videos involving the timetravel device) Its not that its only 1 day today, its that if he makes 1 trip for 1 day every day of the year he will age twice as fast. (Something someone with a keen eye could notice on a teenage since they are still growing and not aging as adults; age is known since he is in school but it could mean college)
Just like in the previous video parody where he's in Egypt, there's a hidden joke here: A white man, wearing modern clothing, speaking English, can talk to the locals perfectly and nobody is freaking out and just excepts that he's time travelled.😂

This might be the only channel where I don’t skip promotions 🤣
You must not watch Daniel thrasher 😂
The heart sign with his hands killed me 😂
“Never eat soggy waffles” I feel so called out by that 💀
I'm used to never eat shredded wheat. But same difference
Im a chemist and i frk love this guy his skits remind me of the early days of youtube in a good way
Zach brought multiple pairs of shoes with him to the past but didn't bring a map or any books
Way more realistic than Isekai mangas where main character, basically, invents 20th century by themselves. XD
True
Well i mean It isnt hard. Just put water in a confined place that IS small enough, boil the hell of It until It create enough pressure to move something, make It move something round shape and you basically did 20 century. Or atleast 19 century in medieval age
@@MarcosAlexandre-no3qx noy really that simple.
You also need to develop coal industry and metallurgy.
Fun fact. Steam engines were invented in ancient Greece, maybe even earlier, but because they didn't know about coal it couldn't produce enough power to do anything useful.
But, yeah, steam engine would be among the easier things to reinvent. Printing books, for example, would require a lot more skill and knowledge.
@@nickknife9681 yeah, but i think they had coal in the medieval ages or atleast they knew how to burn wood and from it you can make some coal. Not effective as the mined but effective. As for metallurgy the first engine wasn't made exactly with metal if i remember well, or it was but they didn't before because you didn't have a motive to bend metal, so if you can create in a wood form just to demonstrate for them and explain that metal made is more resilient it would give a motive for them to improve metallurgy. But yeah the steam engine is the most simple yet revolutonary discovery
"It's not voodoo, it's Vessi."
"Whoa, the words just apoeared out of nowhere."
I'm sorry but "water is WET, THESE SHOES ARENT"
"WoAhhHHhhhhhhhh" was the funniest part of this entire video 😂
That “NOOooo-I know!!!” Never gets old 😂
If it was actually supposed to be Zach would already modernize everything to the 30th century.
Idk why, but when I thought the title said 1942 and I saw a beach, I was worried that the people from the past wanted him to solve Pearl Harbor. Very glad that didn't happen
a great exercise in maturity is finding or writing your own time-travelers field guide just in case and carry that with you at all times. Include psychological norms and regulations for each era (useful for both genders, but sometimes more useful to one gender to avoid being burned on a stake or being tied up and lowered into water) as ancient people were on rare occasions scared of ideas, also bring some technologies that would be easy to create and seem like magic to its time and also simple to advanced knowledge about poisonous and medicinal plants and how to identify them without pictures, knowledge about how to navigate without technology + how to make soap and toilet paper.
*steps in water above ankle height*
"Guess it's waterproof both ways..."
Bruh you uploaded this while I was watching Idiocracy which is basically the exact opposite of this
"I... Knowwww" is one of my favorite lines out of all of Zach's skits.
“You don’t seem to know anything what do you do? “ social media and stuff”
I feel like asking a guy from 1492 if future shoes are comfy is a bit of a loaded question
2:25 water is not wet it is neu the short form for neutral it is not dry or wet
I love that he makes the Ad reads an actual part of the skit
This is the best sequel I never knew I wanted so much
Always love it when the most average moderately humorous data analyst on TH-cam posts another mediocre-at-best sketch.
Just kidding. Love your work!
@Hapita Yolat i did not hit her, i did not hit her, i did not! Oh hi mark!
What the fuck was that for? Whats the punchline? Its just rude
I would invent the wardrobe. Apparently that came much later then people think. I feel thats something I'd be capable of. I could also draw a rough map of the world.
Jokes on all of you, I've thought of this and I have no less than 5 ebooks downloaded on my phone who's singular purpose is to rebuild civilization from the ground up. Principia Mathematica, How to Invent Everything, NAND to Tetris, a couple of other computing books, and How to Rebuild Civilization in the Aftermath of a Cataclysm. I think I'm covered here, except for a document on the USB standard (if I ever want to charge my phone again), a document on the metric standard (so I can measure the volts, since that's required for the previous step), a book on plant and mineral identification (if that sort of thing doesn't already exist in the disaster rebuilding books), the AVX512 standard, the C standard, and perhaps a book on linear algebra because that's useful for quantum computing. But those are details, honestly; I've got my ass covered on general data, I think.
He literally invented time travel, how can he NOT be helpful. He must keep physics in his back pocket.
honestly just the telling them not to enslave the natives would be helpful enough. That is as long as they trust the word of a time traveler that much.
It's like when people say "don't eat sugar, it's bad for your health".
Bro how smooth that sponsor segment was implemented 😂😂😂
This video is proof that water is wet.
Gotta get me one of those Speaker time machines
That ad is brilliant.
I like how chris columbus has kept the book they had for notes in ancient Egypt...
I’m just impressed with Zach’s Spanish fluency
NO JOKE: This video really could be trailer for a private project of mine: Im just annoyed by Isekai-Protags and Time-Travelers being baaad so i write lots of useful knowledge down: I already covered and excuse me if i dont do the work

Zach and Ryan need to do a video where themselves all meet each other
Ok that ad segment was chef's kiss
This channel has the best sponsored content
That’s a great tagline legit “it’s not voodoo, it’s Vessi”
future tech is so cool Zach can be on moon without a space suit
That's mind baffling
Loving de Zachverse so far
Your sponsorship is so random and I love it.
Everyone is stupid without the internet.
An actual sponsor I will buy.
“Water is wet”
“These shoes aren’t”😂😂
Promo so good I didn't want to skip
Again, I think any average citizen could be of SOME use.
Where do we go? To the Canary Islands. There you wait till the wind blows eastweards, and follow it.
Also, by the time America was discovered, scurvy was till a thing, and nobody new what caused it, so just telling them to take some lemmons on the ride would be a good advise.
EVERYBODY can draw a world map with the continents. Keep in mind that they ignored the existence of the whole american continent. Just drawing a landmass from north to south, between Europe and Asia, would blow their mind.
Also, you are in position to save all nations the time of searching for an east west pasage, by telling them that it simply does not exist, they can either border the continent at the south, or cross by land just in panama (almost in the midlle) to reach the Pacific. You are welcome colonialists of the world.
Also , information in advance about the Incas and the Aztecas would be of great use, even the bare knowledge of their existence, so you can slaughter and pillage them more effectively.
Telling the spanish that their arrival would cause tsunamis of deseases that would crash the social structure of the inhabitants for several generations, and kill 90% of people of the area, also would be of great advantage.
Finally, I would have a talk with Columbus, and tell him not be an ash*le to his people, so they don`t ask the crown to remove him after some years, and to renegotiate his deal with the Kings, because there was no way they were going to give him 10% of all the wealth extracted from America (wich was the inital deal)
I vote we send this guy back, he remembers stuff.
We also know that washing our hands in hot water helps stop disease. We know that disease is caused by little organisms, where we could inject ourselves with weak ones to give ourselves immunity. We know that an atom is made of electrons, neutrons, and proton, how this effects some physical properties, and what this means. We know that the earth revolves around the sun. We know a lot of math.
This has three problems though. First off, I don't speak Spanish. I'd only be able to speak to some Brits, inefficiently. So youd have to brush up the language of the people your talking to.
The second problem is that spreading this knowledge has consequences we already know about. Some knowledge is a threat to authorities. Get yourself some legal or physical protection before making moves, for instance by helping out an authority figure first and earning a position. Or bringing a gun.
Third, this is boring. You're from the future. You live in a democracy, and you are already shaking up what's probably a monarchy. What's a bit more? Tell them about the democratic structure of the world, how it's working out, and compare it to our few remaining monarchies (with real power) which aren't doing so hot by comparison.
@@digaddog6099 you would definitely want a position of "king's advisor" and not "random peasant who knows way too much" to avoid getting burned as a witch (threat to the status quo).
And honestly just our math and basic geography would be helpful. (Also germ theory, which was met with so much resistance by arrogant doctors because "a gentleman's hands are clean" despite just doing an autopsy 3 minutes prior)
But the worst part, any king would be envious of even a poor westerner today, electricity, education and free access to libraries, all the spices just available in any grocery store (food abundance in general), speed of transport, air conditioning. Show them how the rich live and they would be beyond jealous of even today's figurehead monarchs who barely have to do anything and get the peak of modern luxuries. (But they would like the power of say the Saudi Kings)
@@jasonreed7522 germ theory is absolutely wrong and would not help them at all, quite the opposite in fact
"idk that wasnt on the final"
is the best line
why would he need a day off from school if he's time traveling?
Best guess is to not visibly age, or the device automatically shifts the return time to match the time spent in the past. (Very common in time travel stories to have both points move forward together for plot reasons)
@@jasonreed7522 "not visibly age" it's literally one day. If anyone notices then that is far beyond the line of insanity
@@asher879 it took columbus 36 days to cross the atlantic and 6 months to sail to India from Portugal.
Depending how long you stay in the past can affect it, also if you make a bunch of 1 day trips and return to the momemt you left each time you would definitely accumulate age from all the time spent not in the present and the easiest way to track that is to just account for it every time you time travel. (And its clear he's the type to abuse the timetravel device and spend a cumulatively long time period in different ages, ie Zack has made multiple videos involving the timetravel device)
Its not that its only 1 day today, its that if he makes 1 trip for 1 day every day of the year he will age twice as fast. (Something someone with a keen eye could notice on a teenage since they are still growing and not aging as adults; age is known since he is in school but it could mean college)
Ever hear of general theory of relativity?
You can start a war with that "water is wet" part.
Extraordinary video, man. I'm glad I've found a new TH-camr to watch on this platform!
Zach is just the funniest TH-camr Creator ever!! 😆😆❤❤
When he said
*"No"*
I felt that
Nobody’s surprised because as soon as he time travels time, time travel is a norm in their reality
this dude has the most seamless ad transitions
Just like in the previous video parody where he's in Egypt, there's a hidden joke here:
A white man, wearing modern clothing, speaking English, can talk to the locals perfectly and nobody is freaking out and just excepts that he's time travelled.😂
