Goddamn drunk history. I didn't expect to get punched in the chest emotionally AND educated.
True... came here for the laughs ... went away motivated and educated! God DAMN! What a good clickbait!!
Mati Mura my thoughts exactly!
Drunk history feels 😥
Yeaa... agree with all the previous sentiments
I miss when they actually got drunk :( God damn lawyers
"Be a nuisance where it counts. Be depressed, discouraged, and disappointed at failure and the disheartening effects of ignorance, greed, corruption, and bad politics.
*But never give up."*
- Marjory Stoneman Douglas
Did she really say that? Ik it was mentioned in the video...
The Juana gallo of the Everglades and keep fighting Parkland just like how she did 💪
@@inesagrace3510 she paraphrased it in this video (she left a few lines in the middle out), but yes Marjory Stoneman Douglas did write that in an article. To be exact, it was in a 1980 article entitled “How You Can Protect the Environment” published in the journal GeoJourney. The full quote was:
"Join a local environmental society, but see to it that it does not waste time on superficial purposes…Don’t think it is enough to attend meetings and sit there like a lump…. It is better to address envelopes than to attend foolish meetings. It is better to study than act too quickly; but it is best to be ready to act intelligently when the appropriate opportunity arises… Speak up. Learn to talk clearly and forcefully in public. Speak simply and not too long at a time, without over-emotion, always from sound preparation and knowledge. Be a nuisance where it counts, but don’t be a bore at any time… Do your part to inform and stimulate the public to join your action…. Be depressed, discouraged and disappointed at failure and the disheartening effects of ignorance, greed, corruption and bad politics - but never give up."
Worked YCC program '72 conserving natural habitat. The assault continues with fertilizers feeding red tides/fish kills, invasive species dominating and political indifference allowing it to occur. The glades is a treasure and Marjory Stoneman Douglas showed how we make it right.
Bolsheviki dam that one hit hard
i wasn't expecting that kind of an ending on Drunk History, damn..
They got us good. The feels
She wouldn’t be crying if she wasn’t as hammered as a railroad spike
@@anandmustafa6499 You have no soul :
As a proud alumnus of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.. thanks for doing this Drunk History
Imac7065 are you a graduate of “that” Majory Stoneman Douglas high school
yaa.....ummmm uhhhh *sensitive topic*
@@danielgreenwell2117 The whole time I was watching this I was thinking "poor lady never knew what would become of the school named after her"
Margaery Stoneman Doulas would have gone to work in support of the students if she were around today. That's an excellent name for this school, the students have taken a page from her playbook and refused to shut up! Ole Marge would've been proud.
@@EmpressMermaid Actually she ironically protested our school the day it was opened lol (its built on the everglades)... but she would support the students I think you're right.
That was the most inspirational drunk history I've ever heard. Oof.
The only thing they left out was that the Seminole tribes got kicked out of the everglades by private contractors and the government and thats why it had to be saved in the first place :(
Iamrip Lolz yeah
Hell ya, I just bought River of Grass!
I think it’s because your drunk
Emma Kay Franklin Nah, I just grew up in The Everglades.
Comedy Central, please throw all the money at Drunk History because it just makes sense.
And the fools aged this badly. WTF Comedy Central. Drunk History is WORTH IT. Drunk History is WORTH THE INVESTMENT. MAKE THE CHANGE.
I'm so proud of the students at MSD High School for carrying on her legacy of being a nuisance where it counts :')
I think she'd be proud
yeah b/c "there are some things that are too special to take"
like our 3rd amendment rights, basic liberties, and no taxation without representation
Too bad 17 of them can't anymore.
Damn history in schools are so biased worldwide
@@ethanb1578 LMAO
I laughed at the cartoon animals and I cried for the fight we are still fighting
Such a realization to know we are losing animals every day
I read your comment right before and when I saw the animals I still cracked up lol
Beautiful! She went real sincere with it and it paid off. I laughed and also teared up.
Connecting history to present social causes and justice warriors is something you should do more of!!
Or less of! I don't need my entertainment to come packaged with more disgusting preaching about off-topic issues. Thanks!
Frog Snack or don’t watch it. 🤷🏽♀️
What's disgusting about it??? It had a great message.
@@frogsnack7072 "What? Fighting for a cause? Where the hell did that come from?! This is off-topic for a video about someone fighting to protect the environment!" - A dummy
@@frogsnack7072 You'd probably build a dollar store in the Everglades.
Thank you drunk history. I live in Florida and I never heard about this woman. Dammit school system!
Wait really? The history of the Everglades and settlement is basically the entire 4th grade curriculum
Yeah, I learned it in fourth grade. I'm from Jacksonville
From Tampa, and can't rember learning a thing about her or her importance to the Everglades. Education is so selective, it's almost horrible.. Bless the true positive influences of the world. The ones who wants what's better for EVERYTHING, not just Homosapiens
Yeah no I didn’t either public schools I guess
@@DavidRodriguez-gl5pn Totally, but it could also be regional. I definitely heard about her ad nausea in Miami
When the manatee came up and said “there she goes” I felt that
This is the perfect example of Drunk History benefiting from an uplifting, spirited narrator.
my thoughts exactly!!
I was confused reading all the comments about how sad/motivational it is then the last 2 minutes really just took a turn and hit me.
2 minutes in; can’t wait
Damn
Okay so I went to MSD high school and I just want to say is I love the IRONY that they BUILT a SCHOOL where a part of the Everglades was to dedicate a woman who tried to PRESERVE it as much as she can 😂
so did I, I always tell people that ironic fact as a way to break the tension
Da-yumn. That’s messed up.
that's Florida for you.
Oof.. That is disappointing.. I hope it is at least a smallish school? But the impact on the environment remains :(
Yup, and now, as the video said, in the spirit of "not taking things away" the students of said high school want to take away your 2nd Amendment rights. Nonstop irony with that place.
God damn, I was thinking about my casseroles but now I'm an activist! xD how all great activists are born
The bit where the lady flips her casserole and marches off was hilarious! Loved the whole thing, but that was a very funny moment.
Wow I never thought I would cry during an episode of this but tears are pouring down my face.
I understand. It got to me, also. I'm sure it would've gotten to me so much easier if I had also had a few glasses of wine ;-)
Why they gotta mix in feels with my drunk history???? I TEARED UP OVER THAT!!!!
More old timey activists! Was cool hearing about who MSD actually was - and there's so many relatively unknown folks out there who fought so hard
As a South Floridian, this made me very happy :)
As a Floridian, and a parent, THANK YOU for this segment.
"The important people of Florida" directory
🤣🤣🤣🤣
must be a very short list
What's sad & pathetic is how the MSD Parkland, school board, Broward County put a new 🏢 on the campus & made no mention, 0, of the 2018 spree shooting, the students or the loss at all. Damn! 😠
This wasn't supposed to make me cry but it did and I really needed to hear Marjory Stoneman Douglas' words today. What an icon
I'm not crying, it's just the humidity of the Everglades running down my cheeks....
I'm not crying..
*Your crying!!!* 😩😭😭😭
*you're
@@ethanmonat *a biss
I'm just gonna move away from the Onions I've bee chopping in my bedroom for some reason and go put down my mobile phone.
Gotta go! Byee!!!!😌😥😥😥😥😥
I'm not crying as well. Damn it....
I'm definitely crying
I’m sitting here, near the Everglades, drawing the Everglades, watching this. Thanks Drunk history, as a student near MSD this really touched me :)
Awww, she legit made me cry when she quoted MSD. Don't ever give up!!
I'm so touched. Marjorie would be proud of the children who go forth in her name.
The way Derek claps @3:48 has me rolling on the floor laffing
Damn. Best drunk history ever. I bet the tear was not planned. I had one coming. Cut back to her teary eyes and I couldnt help it. Good job ya'll!
I was born here in Miami September 8th 1966. My first trip to Everglades National Park was in 1970 chokoloskee Florida. Everglades City. All I can tell you is this is the first time that I've seen this and of course I have the book the River of Grass. This is outstanding and Incredibly emotional for me. From Everglades City as a kid going down to Flamingo and then all points in between on the Gulf of Mexico. And thankfully my wife and my children adults now and my son-in-law who's from Chicago we're able to see the beauty of the Everglades. It's not like it was at all. I remember when I first went to Everglade City in 1970. The horseshoe crabs were alive lining the beach the Turner River had the burial mounds which were intact. This was a strange place of beauty. Thank you for this incredible whatever you want to call it! Cheers and thank you for remembering!
5:40 "Be a nuisance where it counts.. but never give up.."
When my son and his friends and I were harrassed by Republicans and even my own brother in law at the March for our Lives down here in parkland last year I wrote that quote on our kitchen chalkboard and it stayed there until we moved. His school and job have experienced shootings in the time since.
@Joe Mamma The fact that you chose the Confederate battle flag as your profile picture would seem to indicate that you are not a fan of the constitution yourself.
Teachers need to have concealed carry. Schools are targeted because they are gun free zones.
But please remember not all conservative type people are bad but their are some really bad ones on both sides.
Frog Snack
I have met and seen some crazy teachers, I wouldn’t be comfortable if they carried guns...
Yes yes a thousand times yes- thank you Drunk history for bringing laughs and knowledge all the time. This time you brought hope into your videos. And I’m here for it.
Oh wow. I think this is the most moving and emotional Drunk History story ever. I almost started crying.
Nice Job Jayma.
Teddy Roosevelt would be proud of your retelling
of this great American, Touching edge you put on this. Thanks.
The 305 proudly appreciates everything this woman has done. She helped keep our home away from home as green as possible for countless generations of immigrant families. Gracias senorita🙏🏻
Wow. That was powerful.
I was wondering where I had heard Marjory’s name before and I was just hit in the chest emotionally.
Ha! You two were crying.... me?! What?! No! I was making dinner... hashtag chopping onions yo! 😢
Be the nuisance you want to see in the world.
Or something like that, please pass the wine. ☺️
🍷😏
lol lol lol
They are the pebble in the wine glass - er, I mean shoe.
@@lindzeesouperocd7558 😂 Only if I can join the party
omg another Elyssa lolhi
I grew up in the Everglades! It definitely can be humid, icky, sticky and gross. However, when you aren't getting bit by misquotes or dealing with the ash from the harvesting of sugarcane. It's a downright magical place to call home.
It's amazing how many of these things bring me to tears.
Wow the one and only wholesome ep of drunk history
I love this !! Thank you so much for doing this. I was raised in Parkland, FL and I am a Marjory stoneman Douglas alumni. I currently teach high school students. This video means a lot.
This is was beautiful.
Thank you.
I’m wondering if they filmed the ending earlier in the drinking. She was so spot on and perfectly inspiring without all the little drunken hiccups from the rest of the story. I LOVED this video!
This is the way that I would have loved this story told when I was a fourth-grader in Florida History class! My teacher was... not this charismatic when telling it
Aubrey Kemper I feel that way about a lot of history in the United States.
US history is an exciting drama, but is presented in watered down facts & dates. My appreciation for the ideas this country stands for were acquired in college due to reading I did on my own. ☹️ Our curriculum should be presented in a way that inspires and excites young people to both appreciate & participate in our democracy.
1990s-present: “allow me to introduce myself. I am the Burmese Python and I am going to eat every animal that inhabits the Everglades. Yes even alligators.”
This Mary Poppins episode is nice.
I love how at 4:19 he sings, "You're simply the Tess" as he pours out more wine for her!
Holy ish 108 years old
I laughed, then at the end, I cried.
This is probably the best drunk history episode.
BRAVO. we should all be more of a pebble in the shoe :)
I love this!!!!! As a senior at MSD, this both brings a tear to my eye and smile to my face. Fabulous job on this video! I love it in every way!!!
*The best* *_DRUNK HISTORY_* *yet!*

Be a nuisance where it counts

It's a First; tears are shed during Drunk History. ❤❤❤
Drunk history has never made me cry until now
6:20 - I will never be able to fully articulate how much I love that picture.
I'm tearing up here drunk history, damn!

"I'll see you next time, bozos!"
her character voice was hilarious!
This was the first Drunk History I ever watched, and is still one of my very favorites. I love that this show has actually sparked an interest in history for so many of us!
omg those kids made me cry. I didnt know who their school was named after. Thats so beautiful.
I'm in Orlando, Orlando.gov . I knew of MSD but not her Everglades, environmental causes work. 🌏🌴🐊🐸🐍🦜🦆🐢🦎
Growing up in the Everglades is one of my favorite childhood memories. Thank you Mrs. Douglas.
Dammit! Now I’m crying 😭😭😭
Wow. I know the purpose was to create some laugh, but that was touching. What a beautiful video.
I feel the host here looks disapprovingly at his female guest being drunk... and all smiles and laughter when it’s a male guest. Just had to say it. I’ve been binge-watching. Love this!!!
This is highly relevant. Thank you so much, Drunk History. The best episode. Time to save wildlife and mother earth is now. Planet over profit and Justice for all.
'THATS WHAT I DO! IM OPINIONATED'
MOOD
“Picture it, Florida, the 1920s” Sofia Patrillo, is that you????
Aaaand I'm crying. I'mma be a freaking nuisance.
very beautiful. 💕
i cried, too. 😇
let's all "be a nuisance... for the right things". 🌻
Dang, that was a great drunk history lesson.
Please call a doctor. My heart just melted.
That was so good, I absolutely did not expect that ending and it got me in the feels. Beautiful and funny, great job Drunk History.
This is one of the best things I've ever seen.
I love drunk history 👌👌👌😂😂😂
Great short story. I love the crocodile and alligator sitting together talking in their voices. Ahhh.
"This place is special as hell-"
That really got me by the end. Very cool to cover MSD --- good for the students who carry on her legacy of standing for what's right!
And now Trump is threatening all the national parks
SShHh....not here...don't be arrogant.
Joe Mamma literally yeah he is but go off
I was never expecting to cry over a drunk history episode but here I am. This was beautifully told
And from that day on, we never trusted real estate moguls promising to drain swamps.
MaoTseFunkadelic lolol
God bless her Soul. Thank you for everything that you have done & Inspired. That was so very touching.
5:25 ...and that manatee’s name was *_Snooty._* 😢😭
Okay this is BY.FAR. my favorite drunk history ever
God damn it. Here I was, just enjoying the story and then I get the feels at the end. YOU TRICKED ME BY MAKING ME MORE SOCIALLY AWARE! *shakes fist*
I'm not crying, you are crying.
This one always hits hard. That end quote is beautiful.
Just remember: Even Nixon got schools named after him. And he made the EPA
Wait until YOUR kids have to attend Donald Trump Junior High
Nah, he'll just get juvies named after him.
Donald Trump Federal Prison (Named after he spends 10 years there).
Why would his son get a high school?
It's a joke before I wooosh you
James woods has schools named after him
1 2 Donald Trump has done absolutely nothing wrong.
I was going to comment about how much Tess reminds me of Jane Curtin...and then I did.
BUT TESS you are an individual and a brilliant story teller! Thank you. I did cry.
I have an idea, lets name a High School in Florida after her~!
AND BUILD IT ON THE EVERGLADES!!!
@@onytay75 There's like a dozen of them in the Everglades too
@@benjaminzeledon7626 it's dangerous to build on a swamp. Better reinforce it with irony!
D'aww, man! Why'd she have to start crying!? 😂🤣😅😥😭
Yet those kids are bullied and degraded for standing up against school violence by grown ass adults ...should put that in your tale ...then its correct and not happy ever aftered.
@Joe Mamma how old are you
@@nicboyle175 Probably older than you. People like you are why this country is falling apart.
@Joe Mamma I, again, salute you, sir. We need more people like you, people who understand that freedom is more important than feelings.
Tesses impersonation of a older women and Jayma as Marjory cracked me up. What an inspirational message to the high school about standing up for what’s right!
Very cool
Wow, something besides comedy in this one! Tug at the heart at the end there. Well done CC.
Well shit, I was thinking I'd watch this while doing my makeup. Wasn't thinking I'd get teary-eyed by a Drunk History video. This did not end well.
I didn't ask to be made to cry. I came to laugh and learn and I ended up crying. WTH Drunk History? Lol love it.
Too bad Big Sugar is doing its best to ruin it.
And Nestle corpation
Talk about an emotional whiplash.....👏👏👏👏
