Imagine that shark was born in the 1600s before so many things in history mankind was just getting out of the medieval Era. So many things have happened to mankind while that shark was swimming and living its life crazy to think about...
122 is just insane. Imagine someone born in 1980 might actually live to see the 22nd century. That means today they would be around 40 years old. Only a third of their life lived. Yet, when I was a kid I thought 40 was ancient...
If it hasn't been stated already, they found a clam a few years ago that was about 450 years old, making it the oldest living animal at the time, because I'm certain someone has already eaten it by now. And then there's the jellyfish. Some species are believed to be essentially immortal.
To be fair, if I remember correctly, they didn't kill it on purpose but once it was dead they decided to study it (in full dissective fashion) and I am also fairly sure that no one ate it but insted jarred it in formaldehyde and put it on a shelf, in a lab.
My friends mother was interviewed to a magazine when she turned 96 years old. They asked that what was the secret of her old age. For some reason they didn't print her answer which was two packs of Marlboros per day.
That old japanese lady was smoking too. Rolling stones have done drugs all their life and still rock on.

@Prowler Cam True. People are weak and strong in different aspects. Thus why some of us can drink milk while others of us die instantly when thinking too hard about peanuts. You either can or can not.
My favourite story of scientists clusterfucking. Is the story of The New Zealand free botanists looking for a very rare tree/shrub. They arrived in a cut off valley, that had last been explored early last century, that resulted in the original description of the plant. They arrived in the valley set up camp and started exploring for this flora, two weeks later, no luck. The started breaking camp, and as they took down one of the tents, they found they'd pitched it on three seedlings of the tree/shrub!
nope the oldest thing is one of my electronics lecturers from the 1980's. I swear he pre-dates the big bang. Most of the other lecturers were taught by him at some point and some of them were pretty ancient.
There is no oldest thing. Temporal perception is an illusion. State changes are governed by energy conversion/transference. This is why "time" seems to "slow down" near a black hole... it's because the gravity becomes so strong that "normal" energy movement is slowed down. The slower energy moves, the slower "time" seems to go. As energy moves, time is given meaning, a metric, but energy movement is variable and that variability is controlled by gravity. Without any form of gravity the speed of energy becomes infinite which in turn creates matter and that in turn creates gravity. The greater the density of matter, the greater the gravity and the slower energy moves. So you could think of matter as being hyper-accelerated energy which in turn gives off slow moving energy waves that create gravity. Matter > Energy < Gravity Speed up energy, you get matter, slow energy down, you get gravity. There is no "time".
Besides Time doesn't exist it is nothing more then humans creating a way to put our event's in a chronological order we are not Born aware of time. It's taught to us. We are taught to tell time along with the numbers 1-12 We put much into teaching our young to be able to tell time by electricity or the movement of the Sun but Man invented Time so we could measure stuff and file stuff away.

Having just listened to your video, "On losing a pet", I wanted to mention that I have lost several pets within the last 5 or 6 years, so I understand your grief. Three dogs have passed. My pomeranian died recently at 11 1/2 years very quickly, within a week after she got sick. She was a traumatized rescue who couldn't bark, whom I had for 5 years. Before I had her, I had a cocker/springer mix, Robbie, as a puppy, who didn't quite make to 5 years, before he developed a ruptured disc in his spine and quickly became paralyzed from his middle down and couldn't walk but was screaming in pain. I had several friends help me carry him to the vet to put him down. I cried for 3 days, because he was so young. Before Robbie, I had Cody, a Bichon Frise who I also got as a puppy. He died in my arms when he was 11 years old. Now, I have a calico cat, Mitzy, who is about 8 years old and appears to be healthy and happy and very loving, on her terms! However, she was declawed before I got her about a year and a half ago. Thank you for being the funny and sensitive and cool person that you are! Unlike you, I am divorced and living alone. Dogs and cats give me great joy and are necessary to my life as an older person to help me live my life. Even as a senior with no other family, except a few cousins living in other parts of the country, pets give me the unconditional love I need and never had as a child or when I was married! 🥰💖

Hi Joe. Love your channel. I'm gonna subscribe to your patreon just so I can watch your reaction when you have to read my name. Its Przemyslaw Tadeusz Wawrzynczak. Good luck, start practicing now. Lol
3:15 False. The oldest living animal(s) are sea sponges, specifically glass sponges. *Yes, sponges are animals*, and they can live for thousands of years, potentially up to 15,000--that's older than human civilization. This is brought up later in the video at around 7 minutes in, but I think it really does need to be noted that these sponges knock Jonathan and Adwaita right off their pedestals as "oldest living animals". Even if we were to narrow it down to "oldest living vertebrate", which would exclude sponges, giant tortoises are still beat out by Greenland sharks. One individual examined in 2016 was estimated to be around 400 years old at the time of her death.
I really think you have out done your self with this episode. I really found this video to be your best.

Question: If time works different in some parts of the univers over than others, its posible that some things are ageing differently and sime of them be "older" than the known age of the universe?
I remember the oldest man in my youth, a gentleman in Japan. I believe he died in 1990. He was born in 1865. Back about the same time, there was (80s-ish) a show that talked about this ring of brush, a bush, that grew in an ever-expanding ring. The center had long since died, but it was estimated to be eleventy centuries old. Yes, eleven followed by three aughts.
Thank you for this. I beleved Old Tjikko was the oldest tree colonial in the world at 9550. The tree's stems live no more than 600 years, but its root system's age[55][56] was established using carbon dating and genetic matching.[57] Elsewhere in the Fulu mountains, 20 spruces have been found older than 8,000 years.[58]
Can’t believe you missed Greenland sharks. The average lifespan is somewhere between 250 and 500 years, and one’s believed to be over 700 years old have been found

Hey Joe Could you do a video about the mysterious “cleaning events” that allegedly take place on mars . They’re like a windstorm that perfectly clean the rover ... or it’s a conspiracy and there are alien astronauts on mars .
work it out,,you drive your car for 6 months,its filthy,,no amount of rain or wind will clean it. its called static electricity,clingy....yes,it gets cleaned & maintained. it had a life of what,9 months,.its now what,10 yrs.20.? mars has atmosphere,water,air,.it has radio active nuked soil. yes,there was life,like human life,alien,that was nuked,long time ago..our moon,is from another galaxy. it was put around earth to give us a calmer orbit & seasons..it should not mathematically,be there..its too big,& we are too small.nasa lies..

Indeed, and in moderation. IMO, smoking pure tobacco in moderation can be very beneficial to one's health. (Btw, Japanese people are huge smokers, like too much even, yet they somehow have the 'smokers paradox' in that it doesn't reveal any higher disease rates.)
Pretty much anything can give you cancer. It's the dose that matters. That why I said 'moderation'. In lower doses, nicotine is used as medicine in modern pharmacology, often to treat brain diseases. And many international studies show numerous health benefits for smokers, even respiratory benefits. But we tend to focus on the masses of abusers who over consume stuff until it kills them. Food is the number one killer in my country as most are obese, overdosing on food everyday. Yet, we obviously don't label food as all bad.
Man I'm poring through the comments trying to find people talking about this. That hurt my head and induced primal fear. WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?!?!? Lol thanks folks.
Why would Mars 2020 collect samples for a later human mission to recover, when those humans can collect 100 times more samples in 1000 less time themselves?
the more stuff we do on mars the greater the likelyhood that we will contaminate it somehow. The idea is that the earlier we get samples less chance they will be contaminated. I'm not convinced that we need to go to extraordinary efforts to protect from contamination, reasonable yes .. i think we should try reasonable levels of care until we can get a bunch of samples... but hurry up and get them. Either life developed independantly from earth in which case it won't have dna (recognizable as earthly) or there has been cross contamination or even less likely panspermia (however you spell that lol). my guess is that creation of life is quite difficult (or scientists would of done it by now). it is possible that it will be relatively simple but i would imagine that scientists have thought of most of the simple ways to create it and tried them out. If creating life is difficult would it not also stand to reason that life developing dna would also be difficult so the chance of independantly developing life and it having dna close enough to confuse it with earths has to be infinitismal to the point of zero. Comman sense says that life converts energy to survive. So life having enough energy to survive the necessary millions of years it would take to accidently travel from star to star would also seem to me extremely unlikely but I could give credance tot he posiblility of it surviving up to a few thousand years a journey between planets might take. My thought is that we should get as many samples as early as possible. like i said before do a reasonable amount of effort to keep the martian environment as sterile (of earthly contamination) as reasonably possible. BUT NOT let those concerns prevent or slow other equally important priorities in other avenues (science, resource gathering, possibly settlement. A final thought.. in the end i think that life is more valuable then non life, that more complex life is more valuable then less complex life. Therefore whatever we do to spread and diversify life in the universe is "good" whereas slowing or impeding that spread is by definition "bad". I don't think I have totally made these rules up but were given to us by the universe and i think that humanity should try to win that game (course with luck we may have to change the definition of humanity, ai, alien intelligent species).
It is believed that Greenland sharks live significantly longer than giant tortoises. Also, the immortal jellyfish could theoretically be thousands of years old
With the oldest rock in Australia. I live in Australia and I’m pretty shore that there is no tectonic faults going though Australia it sits in the middle of one of the plates
I’m sure someone already pointed this out. The oldest tree in the world is here in Sweden 🇸🇪. It’s called Old Tjikko and is 9550 yo. Thanks for a great video as always 🙂
I always find it so amusing that people talk about the mantle of the earth as if it’s a fluid of some kind, and not a solid rock. Or that magma can rise up out of the outer core and move to the surface, as if it hasn’t compressed to a density much greater than the rock above it so that it’s hopelessly stuck in the core of the earth!
Wheeler Peak is in Eastern Nevada (Great Basin National Park)!!! The White Mountains has the oldest know Bristle Cone Pine now that the NEVADA one has been cut down.

Even as a senior with no other family, except a few cousins living in other parts of the country, pets give me the unconditional love I need and never had as a child or when I was married! 🥰💖
I loved this. Im an idiot. I have a hard time with comprehension. But i love science. You make it so i can get it. Thank you.
I looove these types of videos, great show young chap
Thanks, this one was fun.
Thank you for taking the time to share your research. Greatly appreciate all of your videos!
Hey Joe, I really like your videos. I just wanted to say hi and hope to see you make many more. Thanks
I just discovered joe. I love joe. That is all.

When I want my head to hurt when I wake up!!!! I watch Joe!! You are better than coffee!!!
“Like, as tainted as Bill Cosby’s career”
OH DAMN.

*Oof*
Oohhh savage!
I don’t believe it I think “me too” thing is “me too crazy women movement “ radicals you can’t even hit on girl some ppl just awkwardly dumb make mistakes
Name not found: Good ol' Bill with all the druggin' and a gropin and a rapin.'
Hi Joe. Love your channel. I'm gonna subscribe to your patreon just so I can watch your reaction when you have to read my name. Its Przemyslaw Tadeusz Wawrzynczak. Good luck, start practicing now. Lol
Yeah.... keep your money.
😉
hahahaha made my day
Nice to meet you, Tad.
Przemyslaw Wawrzynczak I know how to prenounce Przemyslaw as I have a friend with same name but not the rest haha

6:48 sponges are in the kingdom Animalia and are, in fact, animals. The oldest living ones sometimes.
3:15 False. The oldest living animal(s) are sea sponges, specifically glass sponges. *Yes, sponges are animals*, and they can live for thousands of years, potentially up to 15,000--that's older than human civilization. This is brought up later in the video at around 7 minutes in, but I think it really does need to be noted that these sponges knock Jonathan and Adwaita right off their pedestals as "oldest living animals". Even if we were to narrow it down to "oldest living vertebrate", which would exclude sponges, giant tortoises are still beat out by Greenland sharks. One individual examined in 2016 was estimated to be around 400 years old at the time of her death.
pando is literally my fav thing in the world. thats an exaggeration probably but its one of them. gotta love weird trees!
I really think you have out done your self with this episode. I really found this video to be your best. You are always putting together content that is educational and facinating but this video really had me on the edge of my seat. As always thank you for researching and putting complex subject matter in a way that is educational and entertaining at the same time. I hope that everything is going well with your TH-cam channel and you continue making more of them because I am smarter every time I watch them and for that I cannot say thank you enough.
Have a great day.
Greetings from Atlantic City New Jersey USA
Ace episode man, thanks
Hey, tree, how old are you?
**tree doesn't answer**
HOW OLD ARE YOU???
**tree doesn't answer**
**scientist murders tree**
America in a nutshell.
Lol.ikr.couldnt he have just cut a chunk out of it or somethin,n i cant believe whoever that dude was actually gave him permission to do it.they shouldve known that there was somethin special with it,seein how tough it was.i hope he got fired.
A lot of science in a nutshell, really.
but in doing so the scientist will find how old the tree is by looking at the rings.
Also us Dónal's in a nutshell
Wow. He looks _substantially_ younger in this. Surprised it’s only 4 years prior
When he said that the viewer(meaning me in this case) doesn’t look a day over 12 billion, I got a smile on my face and I don’t know why.
Good morning and happy Monday all you Answerphiles ^.^
Zachary Fluke stop sexually assaulting the answers!
JOE keep it up my friend,,
love your work to relax, laugh and get informed... Mostly lol
Thank you Joe, now I know that if I want to be 122 like Jeanne, I should smoke!
Jacob Woods And be an Italian or Japanese woman.
She also excersized every day, also she only smoked 1 or 2 death sticks a day.
Jacob Woods maybe it has something to do with being well oiled from fish,Japan, and olives and wine from Italy i dunno.
Quaz PoE Japan...Italy...I will assume it is because of Mario 😂
Didn’t Joe say in another video that Jeanne quit smoking at 100?
Keep up the good work! Your vids are my favourite on TH-cam!
I love your solar system shirt bro
Joe's got the dirt on Mars😉
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHRG!!!!!!
Question: If time works different in some parts of the univers over than others, its posible that some things are ageing differently and sime of them be "older" than the known age of the universe?
Joe should have his own TV show his really funny
Just discovered you a week ago, now one of my favorite channels.
I remember the oldest man in my youth, a gentleman in Japan. I believe he died in 1990. He was born in 1865.
Back about the same time, there was (80s-ish) a show that talked about this ring of brush, a bush, that grew in an ever-expanding ring. The center had long since died, but it was estimated to be eleventy centuries old. Yes, eleven followed by three aughts.
Wouldn’t the oldest thing we can see/detect be the cosmic background radiation?
The system or network forest have is amazing .those on the edge detect a threat and in hours the entire forest knows
"Unmessed with!" Undisturbed, Joe. The word you were looking for was undisturbed.
With all the sandstorms and probes? It’s disturbed. Unmessed with is the best we can hope for
Also, Greenland Sharks live up to 400 years old
Thank you for this. I beleved Old Tjikko was the oldest tree colonial in the world at 9550.
The tree's stems live no more than 600 years, but its root system's age[55][56] was established using carbon dating and genetic matching.[57] Elsewhere in the Fulu mountains, 20 spruces have been found older than 8,000 years.[58]
When you learn this whole video is just an advert for Brilliant 🤣🤣
Joe: You don't look a day over 12 billion.
Me: Thank you. I needed that.
What is the oldest thing ?
*Your Momma*
Jacob Woods I liked even if no one else did lol.
Old joke.
Kotarou DL The oldest ? 🙌
Your mama jokes always welcome.
Kotarou DL Not as old as your mama (sorry in advance lol)
Your absolutely right. Everything was created in the big bang.
Can’t believe you missed Greenland sharks. The average lifespan is somewhere between 250 and 500 years, and one’s believed to be over 700 years old have been found
Sponges ARE animals, Joe - phylum Porifera.
But my intuition doesn't agree with that when looking at it! Oh and bats are birds.
Thulyblu That’s ok, you’re just an uneducated random person on TH-cam. Joe Scott has a science and technology channel - he should do his research a little more carefully...
Glad I'm not the only one who noticed.
Chihuahuas are cowfarts with legs
Unless you're a patron he doesn't give a rat's ass about these corrections. I'm unsubscribing from this channel - his biggest asset is the trust we put in his research, and errors like this make his sloppiness evident and him untrustworthy.
The oldest thing is everything. It's been here forever.
You forgot to say " you know that old chestnut :"!!
WAKANDA FOREVER!!!
*The Queen sips tea in the background while smiling*
Joe can you make video " Westworld " TV show its Brilliant...
AI, Simulation, and mortality are just a few interesting things this show talks about.
Yeah, I need to get caught up on the 2nd season. Loved the first season.
Season 2 is brilliant. watch out for spoilers...
The Bill Cosby joke was funny, but you should probably avoid the word "taint"(1:18) when referring to him.
Green Man
Ha
Double entendre ? Lapsus ? Illuminaties ?
Hey Joe
Could you do a video about the mysterious “cleaning events” that allegedly take place on mars . They’re like a windstorm that perfectly clean the rover ... or it’s a conspiracy and there are alien astronauts on mars .
work it out,,you drive your car for 6 months,its filthy,,no amount of rain or wind will clean it. its called static electricity,clingy....yes,it gets cleaned & maintained. it had a life of what,9 months,.its now what,10 yrs.20.? mars has atmosphere,water,air,.it has radio active nuked soil. yes,there was life,like human life,alien,that was nuked,long time ago..our moon,is from another galaxy. it was put around earth to give us a calmer orbit & seasons..it should not mathematically,be there..its too big,& we are too small.nasa lies..
I 'bout spit coffee all over my keyboard when I saw your shirt......
That tree was in Great Basin NP in Nevada, not in California. Wheeler peak is in that park.
Great channel, big fun. Thank you.
Nobody:
Scientists: *M A R T I A N S O I L*
P W this is probably the most likely way for that to happen in reality, most scientific specimens either already are or end up dead.
@@Ephemeral_Style985 just like religion,,kill it in the name of god & science..yeeehh..

So we're going to nuke the s**t out of Venus? It has (most likely) bacteria clouds
@Ezequiel Ciamparella
Didn't you hear they probably found bacterial clouds in the atmosphere of Venus?
There planning missions to send proves into it for solid proof
@Ezequiel Ciamparella
It's phosphine but whatever.
And if scientist with the actual raw data are saying this might be life, I'm going to trust them over some nobody replying on TH-cam. Once they have evidence in either direction, I'll adjust my view accordingly
Joe,
Hi from down under!
Just needed to say that.
Harry Bartlett you and me don't exist
G’day!
How's -Winter- Least Hot Summer treating you in Oz?
Baron von Quiply It feels like England
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
If you want to live as long as Jeanne Calment, you better start taking your vitamins(3:00)? It looks like you better start SMOKING.
Indeed, and in moderation.
IMO, smoking pure tobacco in moderation can be very beneficial to one's health.
(Btw, Japanese people are huge smokers, like too much even, yet they somehow have the 'smokers paradox' in that it doesn't reveal any higher disease rates.)
@@KittyBoom360 I'm sure. *very healthy* smh
CrystalFox13, don't be smug/stupid about it.
@@KittyBoom360 Smoking can give you cancer. Basically anything with tobacco can cause cancer.
Pretty much anything can give you cancer. It's the dose that matters. That why I said 'moderation'. In lower doses, nicotine is used as medicine in modern pharmacology, often to treat brain diseases. And many international studies show numerous health benefits for smokers, even respiratory benefits. But we tend to focus on the masses of abusers who over consume stuff until it kills them. Food is the number one killer in my country as most are obese, overdosing on food everyday. Yet, we obviously don't label food as all bad.
I just discovered this channel recently and you’re basically like Vsauce but you upload so much more frequently
This is the Video that hooked me to this Channel!!!
Queen Elizabeth : Are you challenging me?
I thought sponges were animals.
He got that one wrong lmao
Man I'm poring through the comments trying to find people talking about this. That hurt my head and induced primal fear. WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?!?!?
Lol thanks folks.
Why would Mars 2020 collect samples for a later human mission to recover, when those humans can collect 100 times more samples in 1000 less time themselves?
the more stuff we do on mars the greater the likelyhood that we will contaminate it somehow. The idea is that the earlier we get samples less chance they will be contaminated. I'm not convinced that we need to go to extraordinary efforts to protect from contamination, reasonable yes .. i think we should try reasonable levels of care until we can get a bunch of samples... but hurry up and get them.
Either life developed independantly from earth in which case it won't have dna (recognizable as earthly) or there has been cross contamination or even less likely panspermia (however you spell that lol). my guess is that creation of life is quite difficult (or scientists would of done it by now). it is possible that it will be relatively simple but i would imagine that scientists have thought of most of the simple ways to create it and tried them out. If creating life is difficult would it not also stand to reason that life developing dna would also be difficult so the chance of independantly developing life and it having dna close enough to confuse it with earths has to be infinitismal to the point of zero.
Comman sense says that life converts energy to survive. So life having enough energy to survive the necessary millions of years it would take to accidently travel from star to star would also seem to me extremely unlikely but I could give credance tot he posiblility of it surviving up to a few thousand years a journey between planets might take.
My thought is that we should get as many samples as early as possible. like i said before do a reasonable amount of effort to keep the martian environment as sterile (of earthly contamination) as reasonably possible. BUT NOT let those concerns prevent or slow other equally important priorities in other avenues (science, resource gathering, possibly settlement.
A final thought.. in the end i think that life is more valuable then non life, that more complex life is more valuable then less complex life. Therefore whatever we do to spread and diversify life in the universe is "good" whereas slowing or impeding that spread is by definition "bad". I don't think I have totally made these rules up but were given to us by the universe and i think that humanity should try to win that game (course with luck we may have to change the definition of humanity, ai, alien intelligent species).
The oldest characters: professor Farnsworth, Fry and Bender from Futurama who came to us from the previous iteration of the universe in s06e07
That was a great episode.
It is believed that Greenland sharks live significantly longer than giant tortoises. Also, the immortal jellyfish could theoretically be thousands of years old
1:18 Awwww no you didn't 😂
that random 10 year old kid in class: Haha i'm the oldest and tallest
*unnamed tree *unnamed movement*'s into the classroom*
The oldest thing on earth: My fear of rejection ☹
I like turtles
@@Ravidist I like turtles as well.
With the oldest rock in Australia. I live in Australia and I’m pretty shore that there is no tectonic faults going though Australia it sits in the middle of one of the plates
I would have to say joe you dove really deep down the rabbit hole this time
She wasn't fine Joe..... She wasn't fine.
I’m sure someone already pointed this out. The oldest tree in the world is here in Sweden 🇸🇪. It’s called Old Tjikko and is 9550 yo.
Thanks for a great video as always 🙂
Yes. Old Tjikko is The oldest known (right now). Check it out!
Chiyo Miyaki, dead on July 22, 2018.
Damnit joe!
I always find it so amusing that people talk about the mantle of the earth as if it’s a fluid of some kind, and not a solid rock. Or that magma can rise up out of the outer core and move to the surface, as if it hasn’t compressed to a density much greater than the rock above it so that it’s hopelessly stuck in the core of the earth!
Wheeler Peak is in Eastern Nevada (Great Basin National Park)!!! The White Mountains has the oldest know Bristle Cone Pine now that the NEVADA one has been cut down.
