oh FYI i get the question a lot, so if you want to see this live, I stream on twitch.tv/pointcrow every Monday/Wednesday/Friday at 5PM PST and Sundays at 2PM PST!
PointCrow hello there
Wow i was literally going to ask that XD i always miss streams
Nezuko _Protection _Squad General kanobie
thank you!
is CTRL+F allowed?
We played a version of this in high school that we called "Get to Hitler" Hit random article. Everyone starts there and the first to "Get to Hitler" won. That story just made me realize that wikipedia has been around for almost 20 years.
When u hit random article and u land on Hitler
Yeah we did exactly the same :D
We did this in german wikipedia.
in most articles you can get to Hitler within 3 clicks.
"'Clicks to Hitler' Believed to be the original form of 'The Wikipedia Game,' the objective is to begin by selecting the 'Random Article' link. From there you look at the selected article and click the links in the main body of the article that are believed to lead to the Adolf Hitler article. Two players or more can play and they count the number of articles it takes to get to Adolf Hitler. The person who gets there with the fewest articles wins."
of course this article exists!
Daniel Chmiel hits random article. Gets the ‘Get to Hitler’ article.
Leaving Wikipedia =clipping out of bounds
Bakoj23 but first, we need to talk about parallel universes
@@nin10jake92 Would that be like going to a non-English version of the article?
changing the URL is arbitrary code execution
"Potato" to "Wikiracing" in 1 click
Step 1: google "Wikiracing wikipedia page" (doesnt count as clicking a link)
Step 2: click top link (1 click)
Done in 1 click.

“Clicking on the first link in the main text of a Wikipedia article, and then repeating the process for subsequent articles, would usually lead to the Philosophy article. As of February 2016, 97% of all articles in Wikipedia eventually led to the article Philosophy.” -Wikipedia
I tried this. A few attempts did get me to Philosophy, but on the third I got stuck in an infinite loop between Awareness and Consciousness.
@@jumjumjummju that sounds exactly like philosphy
@@jumjumjummju I also tried this. Ended up getting stuck in a slightly bigger loop:
Latin -> Classical Language -> Language -> Grammar -> Linguistics -> Science -> Latin
Yndostrui I think Latin is another big one too
jumjumjummju lmao that’s pretty close
“Maybe there’s birds in the Bible?”
-Smallant 2020
lol birds didn't even exist when the bible was written
HighChair okay that’s the biggest bruh moment I’ve ever seen
Technically they still don’t exist
@@highchair208 back in that time, the government didnt have the technology to make birds
HighChair
Surely they did, they are literally the descendants of dinosaurs which are more older than the bible
"he probably reads books all freakin day - I guess I mean I read twitch chat" -smallant
The way he seemed to conflate the two lol
@@KaliTakumi I think he was speaking more to an ability to read fast and scan text, not necessarily general knowledge.
Why every time i scroll down while someone is talking, i see a quote, and i read the quote at the same time and pace as the person says it in the video. This is such a weird feeling.
@@FumoSequence happens to me all the time as well. There should be a name for it
Sounds like a kid with Fs in school
"ok, virgo supercluster, we need to go big."
_immediately clicks cells_
To be fair, ATP is a molecule, so cells, by comparison, are huge.
yeah, fair point
ATP is the stuff that gives our cells energy.
And mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell
I did this along with them, and I clicked on the harvard researchers of that chemical, which got me to harvard, which got me to massechusetts, then to US, North America, Earth, Sun, Solar System, Milky Way, to Virgo Supercluster.
"I'm on the Moon, where is the moon landing?"
FBI searching on his history browsing be like : *wtf*
Lmao
Had the same comment in my mind
Can't like this bc it's at 420 likes
the only speedruners I watch speedrunning my favorite game
MechaFlame sammmeee
Ah yes
Essaymaker simulator 2005
wikipedia?
The last of us part 2?
Imo reddit is a better game then wikipedia
*me furiously switching tabs at 11:55PM trying to get an essay done that's due at 12AM*
GalacticHasRUclips bruh same
All my stuff locks on Sunday so I basically wait to start everything
GalacticHasRUclips this is me
Used to play this game in middle school all the time, except you just click “random article” and the goal page is Adolf Hitler
name checks out
I pretty sure I found your buddy who played with you. In another comment he posted something about doing this
YESSS I USED TO DO THIS TOO! IN MY MIDDLE SCHOOL COMPUTER LAB
My end goal was penis.
YaNoAwantoMas I’m sure it was.
"we need to start with something he doesnt know anything about"
*picks chair*
FLOOR GANG AWOUGH
What the fuck is a chair
*RedFalcon wants to know your location*
Picro chair
Wish I saw the Wikipedia article called "List of sexually active popes"
yes... that's a thing
My favorite one is "list of list of lists" and "list of people who claimed to be Jesus"
My favorite is list of murderers, where it says the list is incomplete and they’d like if you could add to it, but don’t add to it by killing people
list of inventors killed by their own inventions
My favorite is "men who have sex with men" its literally no homo
wunderwaffenhund
_This list is incomplete, you can help by expanding it_
The fact that Crow couldn't find the FAQ is just too ironic
Caurie#2 same with the Canada copyright laws
Wait why
Tovi Heyyy
Because _literally every page linked to the FAQ._
LOBLord of Bonkles ou nice
I had a hard time getting to FAQ. I only found it in the references.
"I was looking through human waste for awhile then I was like, yeah it's not working. "
Campers Craft ,
The potential for this out of context is mind-boggling
I've been laughing at "United States v. Approximately 64,695 Pounds of Shark Fins" for 5 minutes
i raise you "United States v. Article Consisting of 50,000 Cardboard Boxes More or Less, Each Containing One Pair of Clacker Balls"
@@hatakekyasarin9672 What in the name of all fucks is that? lol
@@GoldSrc_ absurdity ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I spent 3 minutes laughing my ass off at “united states vs. approximately 64,695 pounds of shark fins”
Three minutes or approximate three minutes asking for a friend
@@padenlisk2447 3 minutes exactly
if you go to “in rem jurisdiction” there’s a whole list of similarly hilarious case names
@@shadycactus6146 Holy shit thank you!
When he was on the page about nuts, at the top, it said dry nuts are dry.
You learn something new every day
Professor: Wikipedia is not a credible source.
Canvas: Due in 1 hour
Me:
"We'll start at pissant"
cue ant's soul visibly leaving his body
“Let me know when you’re good.”
/*looks at chat*
/*uncomfortable* “Y...eah I’m good”
/*uncomfortable noise* 19:39
Your pfp whyyyy
"Failure to thrive" sounds like a metalcore band name
"I was stuck in Europe for so long trying to find US"
Is this the Speedrun of how fast it takes for someone’s homework to be discredited because Wikipedia is sited as a source?
Seriously don't get what's so bad about wikipedia
Samuel Cho Anyone can edit Wikipedia so it may be inaccurate, but I haven’t found any errors myself
Wikipedia is made to read the article, and then cite the references of that article. It's an encyclopedia.
@@louis1001 Yeah the little numbers at the end of sentences are life savers
Austin Molitor Those are called endnotes. The citation system is the Chicago Manual of Style :D
When will the sheeple realize that best out of five and first to five are two different things...
Some might call it first to 5 best out of 9
At one point they said "best to 5 in a row" and I was like "whaaaat, that'll take forever".
@@danielgibson3422 Bro, don't say things that hurt my brain.
@@danielgibson3422 No, 1st to 5 and best of 9 are distinct because of ties.
@@Neillionaire Literally the same thing, you can't tie on a best of 9 or first to 5, because it seems almost impossible to tie a round in this game.
At first I thought that you were going to read every page on Wikipedia 😂
Me too!!!
@@Samiozd fitting pfp
I like how at the beginning they were doing easy stuff and it escalated to Virgo Supercluster and Adenosine Triphosphate.
I just finished watching you watch paint dry for ten hours, and honestly you’re amazing for keeping me there for the whole 10 hours. You’re a great personality here on RUclips and on Twitch, and I love to see all of your uploads. Thanks for keeping me hooked on your videos and I enjoy every moment of all of it.
r/madlads
Disappointed they didn't go from Sidon, the place, to Sidon from botw.
That’d be easy. You just go to the disambiguation page.
sidon -> sidon (disambiguation) -> sidon from botw
Let's just forbid the disambiguation page, just like "see also" links are forbidden
@@jelliefishr2336 basically the same comment as the one above ?
@@GS-xj4st Where did you find the rules?)
I never would have guessed Wikipedia could be so hype.
"Emu War" ohno please don't tell people about our losses more
Ha upsidedown people losing to birds
8 BULLETS TO KILL ONE EMU!
It's okay, he's talking about the e-Moo war, the one where the cyborg cows attacked. That's more impressive, right?
The Emu War ended with the destruction of Emuparadise.
@@titangamma4207 i wanna see you kill an emu with eight bullets
Aww he didn't include the one that someone literally edited a page during the stream to help Smallant win XD Loved the stream!
Lol so he cheated?
Wow so basically cheating? That's just pathetic
average smallant fan:
Small ant didn’t cheat his fans did lol
FYI this game is really fun to play on your phone when you're out with friends - the mobile version of Wikipedia collapses all content, which adds an extra layer of challenge since you have to manually open each "Content" section.
I am incredibly confused and I’m eager to find out.
*goes from human skin to weaving* Ed Gein would like to know your location.
2:34 HE WAS ON THE PAGE OF THE BIBLE
BRUHHHHH
"The perfect crossover doesn't exist"
PointCrow and Smallant: allow us to introduce ourselves, together
The last time i was this early we caused a hype train when eric was offline
Emily Keating EM LMAO
SHAN LMAO
This challenge is really random
I love it
"I was stuck in Europe trying to find the US" good luck with that XD
14:33 Swapped the start and end texts
Ah yes before the falling out
this genuinely made my day, nice one crow
I'm so glad you two are doing things like this! You're both great streamers!
Wait, this is an actual thing? I made up something just like this to play with my friends lol. I’m going to show this video to my friend and blow his mind.
Sam Lee I think Ludwig made it
Same we played it in the library in highschool.
@@nikkos4879 Not in the slightest, people have been doing this since at least a few years since before twitch was even founded
This was great, really great. Most consistent fun I've had with a video in a while!
Love the channel man! Keep up the good content!
We did something similar back in school, we would press random article and tried to get to the page of the rapper Fat Joe as fast as possible. Still playing that from time to time ^^
damn this video hits so different now…
"fortnite is like minecraft, right?"
unliked, cant watch any more
It was a joke I’m pretty sure. Both have played and speed run Minecraft before
@@Wvymoo lord i hope so
I came here expecting a meme and watched the whole thing for the quality content. This is weirdly interesting
"What does he know nothing about?" ... "Women?"
Sick burn.
I want - no - need more of this. Has moments of slight educational benefit, uses links of minds and conceptual connections... brilliant!
The greatest crossover in history!
wait I THOUGHT THIS WAS SMALLANT'S CHANNEL THEY LOOK AND SOUND SO SIMILAR WTF
wait what
they look nothing alike dawg
They don't look like each other like at all....
They don't sound or look similar at all...
Seventeen getting recognition! Progress people, progress!
11:41 "I was on Ancient Greece"
shows ancient rome
I was not expecting to hear them talk about my favorite kpop group?!?!?!? Howww??? The one time I'm not watching a woozi video, I still find him 😂
he's everywere 👁️👄👁️
same LMAO i was really not expecting to find svt on this part of my youtube
This is legitimately one of the best stream concepts I've ever encountered. No two runs will ever be the same, it's more expansive and random than any game.
your avy is hot
Idk why, but this is so far my fave video you've made! I love your Botw stuff, but when I saw this vid I fell in love with the concept of you vs. Ant I was smiling the whole time!
I played this once with a friend where we had to go from " Catmull-Clarke Subdivision Surface" to "1561 celestial phenomenon over Nuremberg". Took us over half an hour lmao
My wife and I used to play this game years ago. We called it "plimpton"
We would start somewhere and see how few steps it took us to get to Martha plimpton
"We've gotta go big" then immediately goes to "cells" lol. Those massive giant structures known as cells.
This was super fun, please do more of it.
You need to get more people in on this Crow, for wiki speedruns or even geoguessr where you play the same seed as the opponent. Keep up the awesome work though, you're making isolation actually very entertaining!
I like how in the tie breaker round you guys basically had a scale of the universe match from Adenosine Triphosphate to Virgo Super Cluster
“He probably reads books all day, but I read twitch chat, so...”
This was a rare treat and I hope to see it again in a little while.
I enjoyed the stream of wikipedia speedruns on smallant1s side very much
I d be glad if you two did some together again in the future even if it is not a long part of the stream
I take it you've never heard of "The Hitler Wikipedia Game." This is YEARS old. Good video!
I find this as a more difficult version of the game you just said.
Ok first of all this game is actually called seven clicks to Hitler.
5 clicks
It's 6 clicks, you're both wrong. It's named after six degrees of separation. Look it up on wikipedia ; )
I stayed up all night and I found this, this is amazing. Thank you for the content.
do more of these, pretty entertaining
Tried to do this, Started at bread because i had eaten sum nice bread, and decided to end on Fire Emblem because they released a new unit i really want on the mobile game, Thought it would be impossible, but through Hunter-Gathering Society, and WW2 i did it in like 5 minutes
When you're early and there are no comments to read
2:38am gang
Please do more of this! They're so fun 😄
This was one of my favorite streams to attend, and now i activly play this game with my friends.
I didn’t even realize that this was just posted
15:21 And here we have proof that Smant and Crow share one braincell
More of this please!!
That was amazing, please do it again
"I was on sweden" - was actually on Swedish..
"We're gonna start with Surface Tension and we're gonna end with"... Experiment.
.001 DONE.
This is stuff I used to do with friends in high school CAD classes so I’m glad to see this actually speed ran years later
600k so clos congrats bc u got it like in 1 min. U do so good videos thx for all u did.
See, I would have gone from United States, to media, find my way to Last week tonight, from there to civil forfeiture, to United States v. Approximately 64,695 pounds of shark fins
I wanna see a chain of 3.
"a, then b, then c"
Maybe think of it like "a to c, but you have to pass through b on the way.
I was just thinking of this, I was also thinking of "A to B to A" and "A to B to C to A", sort of like point to point and circle races.
That's just like playing two games in a row
Congrats on the 1 mil subs :D

I was today years old when I found out races like this exist.
Yoooo that sub 1 minute Adenosine Triphosphate to Virgo Supercluster run was HYPE
Your channel my favourite thing to watch when I have nothing to do.
*oh no*
*he has ascended above humanity*
Yay, Crow's listening to Zelda and Chill!
Bossak Family made the video just that much better (´-ω-`) 🎵
Such a good idea for a video and two of my favorite streamers!
the discovery of this channel is the best thing to happen to me for a long time
That one kid that lives in Wisconsin- im being recognized
I genuinely though this was an edit of the same dude for a minuet.
when you need one very specific article but only have a mouse and a few Wikipedia articles open already

article heading: ancient Rome
