If 1 of these facts is we'll soon learn how to rotate the universe to go back in time, this video's well worth watching.
I built a time machine in my basement, but it only goes forward at regular speed.
THAT’s what YOU perceive!!!
Lol
If you take a nap inside it, you can skip ahead a few hours in the blink of an eye.
I found a couple time machines that slow down time painfully.
Loved the video. Keep the time zones, get rid of daylight savings time.
I'm on the opposite end of you. Keep time zones yes, but keep daylight savings time permanent.
@@bamacopeland4372 one way or another...we will keep the hour the same, either hour is good with me, just as long as they don't change it.
Yes, yes! absolutely agree! Even if Putin did it - stay on "Summer" time.
Daylight Saving needs to simply be abolished. It is impractical and actually detrimental, given the lag-fatigues each "leap" causes, leading to roadway and work accidents.
NO ONE needs the sun up at 4:00am, DUMBBELL!!
@@traybern Yes. Correct. THAT was my point as to why GST would not work socially/culturally.
My favorite quote regarding time is Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
😂 Classic gold 😂
Terry Wogan Said That. I don't know if he was the firast, but he said it during the 1970s on his radio Programme.
I've never heard that one before 🤣 Love it!
@@Morganstein-Railroad I heard it's from Groucho Marx. Also fits Groucho better than it does Terry.
OTOH, QuoteInvestigator doubts is from Marx, and says it circulated already in the 1960s.
@@stevenvanhulle7242 It could just as easily been something that Terry Wogan heard somewhere and thought it was so funny, he said it on his show. Perhaps someone (Not Me) would like to try to find the original source of this one.
They should leave daylight saving time one way or the other
As an IT professional I am all for abolishing time change!
These Lists about Time are awesome, more please!
I despise Daylight Saving, loathe it completely, It is not healthy for Humans or Animals, and is disruptive to everyone even when they are prepared and changing clocks, ready to work on time etc. Ugh, abolish it already!
When the clocks go back next time, why not just move them 30 minutes and leave them like that?
Fun fact...... My grandpa was a dairy Farmer. When I was little, I asked him if he believed in daylight savings time like everybody else. He said, "I don't follow that s*** I go by cow time, when the cows are up and ready to eat, I feed him when the cows are going to bed and need to eat that I feed them."
I was told years ago that when a clock is packaged for sale the 10:10 represents the time Abraham Lincoln was shot at the playhouse.
There was a commercial on TV in the early '80's, that explained that 10:10 was to give a nice aesthetic and show the dials and hands clearly.
I was told that they use 10:10 because it makes the clock look like it is smiling
I made it on time 😂😂. Thanks for all your hard work Mike❤
I love all the different traditions for keeping time. That's always fascinated me.
Miss you Mike! Maybe I’m late to the table but it’s good to see you again!
I wasn't but a minute into this before my brain started freaking out.
Nice of you to post this video on time.
Best comment! 🙂
Get out.
There's a clock in Bristol UK that has two minute hands, one shows uk time, the other is about 20 minutes behind that shows local time
The world is a 24 hour thing these days, there's no need to keep changing times, especially when countries do it on dfferent days, it's confusing for commerce, you have to keep checking what time it is in other countries.
All my clocks stay on GMT, the only thing i do is set my alarm for 1 hour earlier during the summer.
Think of it this way, if your boss said you had to start work an hour earlier, you would complain.
I think we feel more tired during the summer too.
Everyone time travels at the rate of 60 minutes an hour, except those who move impossibly fast, but one thing that remains constant, is that TMNT is the best
If "we" abolish daylight saving time, I hope we do it during the fall back period. That way, I will get that extra hour!😂
About fly swatting, I’m horrible at the one handed overhand swats but I’m amazing at using both hands and smooshing it in the middle. Yes, I’m weird and yes, I wash my hands after😂
Just watch Interstellar. That movie will blow your mind to oblivion.
It's not mind blowing if you're well versed in Special Relativity. Just pretty much on point.
Love the shirt Mike with list 25 keep up the good work
Very well done and quite informative!
Yes, abolish the time shifts. Stop messing around with time.
Temporal illusion is probably the better term for "time blindness".
When my family emigrated from England to California in 1953, we avoided jetlag by taking 8 days for the journey - so basically 23-hour days; 5 days crossing the Atlantic Ocean on the RMS Queen Elizabeth, then 3 days crossing the US by train.
Usually, I am so tired from the plane journey that I go to sleep in the afternoon. I get up for dinner, and go to sleep then, and I am in the new rhythm.
Ghost images....MIND BLOWN!
Thanks for blowing my mind...again, @List25!!! 🤯
(LOVE the shirt BTW) ❤️🐢💯
I have to say this. The bad jokes side of me compels me to do so: So you are telling me there is more Time to talk about Time, and that our Time is nearing its beginning or is its end. Okay done.
People think they can donate, save, waste, make up for, lose, earn, and gain time to name just a few,
But time being infinite is not a renewable resource, time is only one of a very few things that everybody on the planet agrees with,. With out this illusion that we call time societies of the world would collapse,.
I’ve always heard it as daylight savings time
Awesome video Mike ❤ I love learning about time ❤
Another awesome video. I still remember when you were shy about showing your face on your videos! I'm glad we can see you, and it's great that your videos are still top tier.
Time flies.
Thank you for the TARDIS reference. I am on a big Doctor Who kick!
Thank you for another thought provoking video on time.After studying, observing and thinking about this subject for seven decades, here is some derivatives of that effort: This is not a scientific comment, but a 'relative to us mortals' analogy. Time is, to us individually and all we have direct contact with, a river. It flows, it has a source, but relative to us, possesses no exit. The 'flow of time' carries us all along, involuntarily, at the same pace. Yet, to those stuck in that flow, time is not perceived the same by each passenger. As an example, to the young couple in love, sitting on a park bench in the dabbled shade with a slight breeze blowing on a 72 degree day, time flashes by; to a person sitting on a hot stove, 30 seconds would seem an eternity. Yet, all three would be flowing with time at the same pace. Every time we look at the stars we are time traveling back to the moment the star, or other entity, sent that light out/reflected light. It appears that being made up of bundles of energy causes our relationship with time to change as compared to pure, free energy (which appears unaffected by time). Because our matter is stationary energy, we are thus caught in that 'flow of time' whether we are a living entity, a stone or as large as a star. So, in a mad race to use up that segment of time we mortals are allotted, we endeavor to measure this flow by various means. The understanding of the science of time, as important and majestic as that is, will not affect how our individual relationship with time is at all. Being aware of that 'flow of time' and keeping that awareness in balance is our challenge.
I’ve been wondering about some of these. I found this just on time 😐
About temporal illusions. Einstein said: “Sit with a pretty girl for an hour and it feels like a minute; sit on a hot stove for a minute and it feels like many hours. That's relativity”.
Don't know if he confirmed this through experiment, though.
LOL!!!!!!!
10:14 This reminds me when I lived in NC near the SC state line. (LONG AGO-before cell phones and stuff?) I could "holler" over and speak to my neighbors across the state line and have actual and understandable and understood conversations. But to talk to them on the phone, it was long distance charges, per minute, out of state calls. The olden days
24 is partially right. It is what he said, but not for close objects like the mentioned screen in front of someone. But the further an object is, the longer it'll take to it's light to reach us.
Great stuff. Thank you
Hey Mike been a subscriber for many years now. You are a lovely freak. Lub ya! I asked you to change the trigger and you did. Thank you baby doll!
We learned this in 1980-The Empire Strikes Back. When Luke leaves Hoth in the X-wing his hyperdrive is working. The Millennium Falcon leaves Hoth at the same time, but with a broken hyperdrive. Luke spends about a month on Dagobah learning the Force and Jedi philosophy from Yoda. By comparison, Han, Leia, Chewie and 3PO spend a day or so dodging the Empire and going to Bespin/Cloud City. Luke arrives just after the Falcon, but with a month's worth of Jedi training by which he narrowly survives getting whupped by his father.
I absolutely love when you reference something that's traditional Hebrew, Jewish, etc. Can a 60 year old woman have a crush on such a young man? LMAO! Great channel! I enjoy it!
Mike, you mentioned the Hebrew calendar (you know, being Jewish Yay!!!) But here's the thing about Hanukah (spell that transliterated any way you want to). The holiday of Hanukah doesn't move on the calendar at all. It stays on the 25th of Kislev every single year. It is the GREGORIAN calendar that changes every year.
Also, to note what the date of the holiday is. The 25th of Kislev. And approximately what other holiday lands on the 25th of the final month of the Gregorian calendar? This is NOT coincidence. You can thank the Roman Catholic Church for that one!
The only time I have delt with Daylight saving time was during my 2 years living as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Romania. I was born and spent the first 14 years of my life in Hawaii and then moved to Arizona the two states that don't do Daylight Saving time. I do think we should get ride of it as it doesn't do anyone any good.
6:36 This is one of my favorite time facts. A cool/helpful thing about this is that you can use this to your advantage. Slowly creeping up on a fly is the best way to swat it because (not unlike humans and climate change) they have difficulty perceiving the slow incremental change in our movement much like we can't see growth (in real time) in even the fastest growing plants. By the time we get within swatting distance it's too late for them to get away! Then SMACK! No more fly.
Don’t ask me how this works, but we travel through space-time at the speed of light. The faster we travel through space, the slower we travel through time. And the faster we travel through time, the slower we travel through space. Anyway, when you combine your speed through space with your speed through time, the sum total is light speed. It’s easier to explain with a graph and a physicist.
Daylight savings time was about maximizing daylight during people’s active hours, therefore less electricity was needed before additional generators could be brought back online for the work day.
Interesting video as always, Mike!
I study physics but i would never tell anyone all we see is in the past. People are not built for such knowledge.
11:00 - you forgot that Einstein nailed this one too. "Time is relative"
Nice shirt Brodie, and you’re not wrong ever since I discovered this channel it’s a go to
We've all heard of the International Date Line, where if you cross it you can either go ahead or behind 1 calendar day. But there actually is another place where this happens on Earth --- that is wherever it happens to be midnight (12:00 AM). The former one is fixed while the latter continuously moves around the planet. And when midnight occurs on the IDL it's the same day everywhere on Earth. Explaining why we even have the IDL would have been a good topic to bring up on this video about time.
You can time travel nowadays. Holland is 1hr in front of England, but it takes 45 minutes to fly from Holland to England. So you technically gain 15 minutes in time
It's just like the late Mitch Hedberg said "Every picture is of you when you were younger."
About internal clocks, I had a very bizarre experience. We were on a journey in Turkey, and every day we had to get up at a different hour in the morning, sometimes as early as 2am, other times only at 7am. Each time I set my alarm, but about half of the mornings I automatically woke up between 1 and 5 minutes before my alarm clock went off. How could I know time so precisely while I was sleeping ? During the day you would ask me what time it is, I would easily be 1 or 2 hours wrong.
Rumor has it that daylight savings time didn’t take root in Arizona, because it screwed with the scheduling for drive in movie theaters…
Time: can't live with it. can't live without it.
The sundials in Australia go Anti Clockwise 😊
The earth spins from a northern hemisphere perspective counter clockwise. Does it not
When I lived and worked in northern Virginia (Fairfax, Reston, Herndon, Alexandria, Washington DC) the 🚦 red lights were 4 minutes long.
I have that same bathroom clock! 😂
I was taught in school that clocks were set at 10:10 in ads because that's when President Lincoln died. And it was only in America where all clocks on display or in ads were set to 10:10.
Until someone can tell me when 0:00:00 on 00/00/0000 was. I'm just going with the flow. I'm retired now and after covid I don't watch prime time t.v. So I eat when I'm hungry, sleep when I'm tired and wake up when I gotta go to the bathroom. If I feel like it I'll stay up.
This video is very interesting I Ike it
Beyond just symmetry, setting the hands to 10:10 keeps them out of the way so the manufacturer's name and/or logo can be top dead center below the 12:00 position.
❤❤❤❤❤ the video (as ALWAYS!!) & ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ The TMNT shirt!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤!
60 hours of commuting time per year sounds like a way too low estimate to me. When you'd work 240 days a year, then that's only 15 minutes a day; seven and a half in the morning and seven and a half in the evening. I think most people would be happy if they'd be at work so quickly.
The symmetry of 10:10 may be one reason, but it's not sufficient; 8:20 is also symmetric. My guess is that 10:10 nicely encompasses the brand's logo/wordmark, which can mostly be found at the top of the dial. Also, 10:10 makes the hands look like smile.
I don't know if I see them on time, as you say, but I see them eventually.
Yo bro I love what you do. You're a good man. You help me out. You maybe in Tampa. I'm in Tucson
4:44 The Hebrew calendar is Lunisolar - hence intercalary months to keep it more or less in tempo with the seasons. 😀
These facts are interesting in the context of general knowledge, but I don’t find them to be particularly relevant to my spirituality.
Time is an illusion. It is a man-made concept created to relate people to the universe and each other. Ultimately, what we view as time does not exist. Alan Watts had a very interesting viewpoint on time if anyone is interested.
My GF spent a fourtnight in Ethiopia and never heard about this time system. Official time is UTC+3. The system explained here is probably used by some remote tribes. And even then wikipedia says the day starts at sunrise, not sunset. Which makes a lot more sense.
Strange. I had a colleague who went on holiday in Ethiopia, and he had a even different story. He said there were 2 time systems, the official UTC+3, and another one that differed by 6 hours or so.
During WW2 The UK stayed on BST "your daylight savings time" until the war ended
23 i am pretty sure that energy conservation (electricity) was the main reason for daylight savings. "the farmers" was a secondary reason.
14:10 I have to stop and, somehow "think about it" before I can do that. It just doesn't come naturally to me without any thought. Anyone else?
You know the idea that we spend/waste 2-something hours a year in traffic actually seems too small to me. I live in Portland OR where traffic doesn't get too bad a lot of the time, especially compared to when I lived in Sacramento CA when I was a kid and what I've seen in various mediums, but 2-something days a year for whatever reason just seems like that amount of time is way too small, especially when looking at bigger cities (even here in Portland OR).
Am I crazy or does anyone here feel the same way?
38 hours traffic delay? Rookie numbers try working in london
The number is obviously wrong. It would imply that commuters would only spend 5 minutes each morning and evening in traffic.
Here in South Africa there is no Daylight Savings Time however we only have one time zone in an area that should have at least two if not three
Here in Florida, it would be better to stay with EDT year round. There doesn't seem to be much advantage going back to EST in the fall.
you know people keep asking me questions, most of which i really don’t know cause i’m not interested in what they’re interested in. although i did know the Jewish calendar was 5,000 something.
not only that, they keep asking
me to play songs or symphonies. a song i can hum, but a symphony!!!?? also, play louder, alexa. play softer, alexa. Damn, give me a break !!!!
as of September, 1945, i’ve been Alexa Irene (Russian last name). until maybe 10 or 15 years ago, there were only a couple of us. i and we were unique - well, that’s gone!!
the best alexa i ever heard though was on YT. it was the cutest two and a half y.o. African baby girl in her frilly little dress demanding! “Alexa, play baby shark.” i almost started to sing it. that’s when it really sunk in. :)
there’s another Alexa Irene my same age in Florida. i’m Jewish American in New York, she’s African American. (n.b. she’s a doctor, i’m a teacher.). How in the hell did we end up both being Alexa Irene in 1945? Alexa is a Greek name ( i’m part Greek.) and Irene is a Hebrew or maybe Russian name. i wonder what her heritage is?? So, i guess she has also had to get used to hearing her name everywhere!! 😋🌷🌱
Farmers needed the daylight savings time not for their animals, they needed it because they never had tim to get to the bank and do other business in the afternoon, after they were done working on their farms. This is why it was established. Back then, all banking was done in person, a the drive was usually a long one.
Awesome TMNT shirt Mike
Love fron Nepal ❤❤
#8 & #3:
There is a small need for a “Universal Time” when it comes to military operations or people conducting business around the globe. That is why the military has ZULU time which uses the Greenwich time zone as the actual time & if needed add X number of hours for whatever time zone where you are actually located.
I watched your Treasure vids the other day
Daylight saving time is fightin words around here. Savings time takes the W. Heard grown ass men argue it in their morning circles. 😂
Cows can't tell the time!? You learn something every day.
Time is just wibbly wobbly.
Wonder if they mention about time in the UK changing thanks to Issambard Kingdom Brunels railways. Before Bristol was 12 minutes behind London time, hence why some town center clocks have 2 minute hands
# 8 I long ago had the thought of a Global Standard Time, whereby it would be the same time everywhere, but immediately saw the huge fault. NO ONE wants it to be 3:00 a.m. with a high standing sun shining down 10:00 a.m. in natural pitch dark, etc. There are associations between the natural status and determined clock determination that simply feel too wrong for people to accept.
Are we talking about actual time or clocks because that's not the same?
Clock sound most beautiful 👍
Get rid of Day light savings time, it sucks. They tried staying on daylight savings in the 70's and everyone hated it, especially in winter. Stay on standard time.
Would love to watch this, but I don't have the time.
Somebody said once that time was only invented to prevent everything from happening at once!!!
Nice shirt
Most of us aren't losing 60 hours to traffic jams but idiotic office mandates.
Abolish daylight saving time! Fall back so there's daylight at the end of the workday and leave it alone forever!
Another video about time? Guess I can make time for this.
Anyone else absolutely hate the clock sound in the background
Didn't even notice till you pointed it out...thanks😅
Never heard it was for farmers. Heard it was for the electricity, instead of using artificial light we'd use natural light. Itd only save about 2 percent but now as much as there is going on it doesnt matter
