I have watched far too many archeology programmes. Trying to get a close up of the skeleton' s brow ridges and pelvic notch to confirm it's a male skeleton, then wondering about cause of death... mind, it's an excuse to keep rewatching!
Mandraulic. Hooray, an addition to the lexicon. But wait. There's already a word in the dictionary that goes back, at least to 1940: 'Handraulic' Chiefly British. Of motive power: provided by the hands or by human energy; (of a system, device, etc.) operated by hand as opposed to automatically or by machine.
It was chocolate chip. I'd say that "chocolate chip cookie" is a type of biscuit, in British usage, just like "rich tea" and "digestive". And it might reasonably be shortened to merely "cookie".
those large ones that are like fancier than a regular biscuit, we call those cookies. it's not specifically because it's chocolate chip, they could also be like oatmeal and raisin, or have chocolate sweets in like rolos (chocolate filled with toffee), or smarties (chocolate in sugar shell, like M&Ms) we have smaller choc chip biscuits that we call biscuits, those are about 2inches across, whereas a cookie is more like 5-6inches
I am binge watching park bench episodes now (why did I came so late to that?!) and I am happy that I can see more behind the scenes videos and comments :D
All this safe filming stuff is getting to the adverts aimed at me. This time it was for how to put a condom on. (I have 4 kids and 5 grandkids. It's a bit late 😂)

It's not all of us. A small proportion of people have difficulties with certain words, like skeleton, spaghetti and nuclear. I used to drive my kids nuts for correcting them all the time. I'm so glad they could all say nuclear though... Edit: and I agree, sometimes we deliberately mess things up for fun.
Plot twist: Matt took the cookie.
Did it soft serve though?
@@Gaspode_ It did indeed.

Will It Soft Serve: Human Skeleton
Seeing matt and tom work together again is the biggest hope boost I've gotten all 2020
Matt, this decade is the 20's...
My reaction too
technically, so far it's just the 20, singular.
edit: wait, no, 2020 so there's two of them. disregard.
oooh!
I like how Charles only refers to is as a 'skellington'. Perfection!
Hilariously, the subtitles refuse to recognise "skellington" as a word and stubbornly correct him to "skeleton".
"From the twenties"
Seems like you're using the "we are living history here" approach instead of going for "the end is nigh". I like it!
'Two of these people are lying' gave him some practice lol

i do love a bit of bizarre october absurdity

Chiefly British.

Spoilers for Tom’s video which already has the spoilers in the title
Will a skeleton soft serve?
Rob Burgess I was thinking of a skeleton that made soft serve but OK
5:02 I like how the floral pattern on the shirt is completely gone in the infrared image
BUT DID YOU NAME THE SKELETON
The real behind-the-scenes note that I missed: why did they refer to it as a cookie and not a biscuit?
It was chocolate chip. I'd say that "chocolate chip cookie" is a type of biscuit, in British usage, just like "rich tea" and "digestive". And it might reasonably be shortened to merely "cookie".
Cookies are a type of biscuit. Custard Cream, Bourbon, Rich Tea, Chocolate Chip Cookie.

FYI That type of biscuit is called a cookie in French too.
Alice Teague it’s all a “biscuit” in french

everything about this makes me cry with laughter, and I'm so happy to see you and Tom working together again!

Felt for the skeleton. His dinner was stolen just for the sake of a video which proved nothing
I hope Matt gave him some soft serve to make up for it.

I think I remember Charles Yarnold from the show "Gadget Geeks" in which Tom Scott also appeared
This is great please do more of these in the future
I confess! I watched the making of before the real video! I confess!! Make the spoopy skeleton go away!
We got a confession, boys; the invention worked!
TIL the word "mandraulics" and I love it!
The third gadget geek is found!
The four dislikers are the four participants...
Or perhaps the four limbs of the skeleton?
I would have taken the cookie.
Mr. Skellington does not wear a mask talking with people in a tightly closed space. Very unsafe.
0:32 "because watching a behind the scenes before you've seen the main video probably won't make much sense." Oh you severely underestimate my Autistic powers, Mr. Gray.
1:02 - best part
4:14 Did you tell the suspected cookie thieves to wave a bit to activate the wildlife camera?
Maybe the motion of the curtain + them walking in was enough?
Where was the partial haze/ fog coming from?
How come tom’s black T-shirt shows up on the infrared as white but his black hoodie stays black? Is it to do with the different materials?
I would guess that the material is either reflective (white) or absorbent (black)
@@DasGanon that makes sense, I guess it being synthetic or natural plays a part in it's reflectiveness?
That beard is glorious
2:15 skellington paranormal
The cookie is a lie.
should have bought a cheap TVL camera for the infrared and a cheap composite capture card
Huh both the patent and the video are from the 20s
Are those exposed mains terminals at 1:14?
There was no cookie
Since it's patented, what is the legal status of actually building it? Has the patent expired? Or did it only ever apply in the US in the first place?
US patents generally expire after 20 years, and in the 1920s I believe it was for a shorter period.
Wait, is Charles the same guy who was on that telly thing with Tom and Colin Furze?
Yes
this is where the real after party is
hi matt
What sort of trail cam is that?
Oh god, which twenties are you talking about?
I would have watched Tom’s video first except that this posted and so far Tom’s hasn’t and I don’t feel like waiting 😀
Matt sus.
Why do british people say "skellington" instead of "skeleton"?? I've wondered this since hearing it all the time in Minecraft videos.
JadarDev because that is the English accent.
It's just people being mildly silly. Like saying "doggo" instead of "dog".
It's not all of us. A small proportion of people have difficulties with certain words, like skeleton, spaghetti and nuclear. I used to drive my kids nuts for correcting them all the time. I'm so glad they could all say nuclear though...
Edit: and I agree, sometimes we deliberately mess things up for fun.
IIRC Matt especially likes mispronouncing words for fun. Just like how he uses left, right, up, down instead of west, east, north, south.
Particularly common in the English Midlands. Along with certificate being pronounced as cerstificate.
