Should You POP PIMPLES? Acne Myths DEBUNKED ruclips.net/video/un-N6xlaa1U/видео.html
And dolphins are smarter...
@@s.m.o2306 ya
I was just curious why did your animation only show men submerged under the water?
We are not the most intelligent species😂
We only use about 6% of the brain's potential.
Dolphins are the smartest living creatures. Using 20%. Who, next to swine, are our closer relatives.
We aren't related to monkeys. They'd still be evolving into humans if that were the case.
We eat swine because he has the same exact skin, preventing cannibalism.
And we have webbed fingers and toes for swimming.
Such monkeys don't have. We're water creatures adapted to land.
We are not land creatures originally.
At 14% brain function bats and sea animals developed sonar abilities.
We are actually at the bottom of the list.
Ah, percentages, the easiest way to appear informed without actually informing much of anything.
6% of a truck full of cereal is still more cereal than 20% of a bowl of cereal.
14% phone battery current is not equivalent to 14% metropolitan area current.
so our body is still 100% human, but being human (or any animal) we house bacteria to keep us alive... that does not make out body less human, it just makes these bacteria part of our human body
Thank you that's like putting water in a jar and saying the jar is made of water.
You will find that included in our DNA, is DNA from Viruses/Viri whatever. Which have hijacked our DNA to enable their reproduction. And those traces still remain.
@@kaical8273 Not at all.
Is more like. Someone look at water and say H2O is water... and you say "yeah, but the thing we normally refer as water is not H2O, it have other substances".
So we are talking about two different things with the same name. Water in a pure chemical way and water in a day by day life.
When i say to you "get me glass of water", i'm not asking you to get water from my sink and destilates it just to bring me H2O, i'm asking you to get this mix of things that includes H2O put in a glass and bring to me... in other words "bring me a glass of water".

LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember learning about the tongue map in kindergarten. I raised my hand and asked what was in the middle and the teacher said "it's just... Tongue." I still remember that very vividly
fhhjjk yfvvhjj I learnt that the middle was salty and there was no salty taste buds on the sides. The only taste buds on the sides were the sour ones.....
You made your teacher silently panic
No there is a taste
You said that fingerprints aren't unique, but didn't debunk it, in fact you pretty much confirmed the opposite.
I was thinking the same thing because it sounds like they are unique but that the system just doesn’t analyze it completely & just uses markers which is ridiculous. Let’s play with peoples lives & possibly put someone in prison forever by not thoroughly doing our job & checking the entire finger print. 🤦♀️
@@beccaboo6355 Also, a lot of prints recovered from a crime scene are partial prints, so you may not get the full 12 reference points you're supposed to.
Compare this to the TV shows, where they can miraculously get good fingerprints off of any surface.
Thanks, Juan Vucetich.
the problem is finger prints are probably unique, not definitely. it has not been mathematically proven yet. so he debunked the statement being a fact.
Yes, bull crap for click bait, fingerprints are indeed very unique.

Sure it's good to have a paper saying you can do this and that, but at the end of the day it all boils down to experience and understanding.
As a child, I kept trying to prove the tongue map thing unsuccessfully.
I remember seeing the map and just instinctively thinking that's not right. But they taught that for decades without any good proof. Crazy.

“The human is the only animal with chins”
Leafy is not human finally confirmed
Your FBI agent i knew it
Leafy from bfdi or Leafy from a RUclips channel?
so the kid from Up is not human?
First point is so stupid.
It is like saying your eyes don't actually see anything, light just goes into them and stimulates nerves which send signals to be interpreted in the brain.
Or that your nose doesn't smell.
Well yeah
@bonglee66 I know right
If you manage to destroy the back side of your brain (called central cecity), you will be blind without needing to hurt the eyes in any way
Surely saying we taste in the brain, not the tongue, is like saying we see with our brain, not our eyes, or hear with our brain, not our ears, etc. The brain also interprets all those, they're all just chemical and electrical signals too.
yeah, it is kinda pointless
You just have said it... "Evidently we are able to Taste into our brains [Because that's where the vast majority of the properly done functions that we managed to do thro' our day are somehow "Stored" to be passed towards the *Next Generation* continuing with the Family bonds.] Not *with* using our brains "literally speaking"
I mean not really when you consider the experiment, in which you modify the brain, amd them the receptors in the tongue, unaffected, will give you different results to the normally expected.
Urine can still be an indicator of other health problems. For example, if it’s tinged with red, it may be an indicator of blood (or having consumed too much red food dye.) If it’s cloudy, it could be a sign of a yeast or other infections. If you spot anything particularly odd, it’s generally a good idea to see a physician.
Sure, but that has nothing to do with the point made in the video. It's only talking about hydration levels reflecting on the color of one's urine. That's like a video saying "phlegm color doesn't indicate if you're on your way to recovery from your coughs" and you commenting "But it can also indicate blood if it's colored red." I mean, duh. 🤣 Pretty sure most people wouldn't "yeah, that's normal" as they spit or urinate blood.
"Many people believe Dolphins to be the dumbest creatures on earth, because with all their brain capacity instead of building civilisation and advancing as a species, they just swim around and enjoy life. Others believe they are the most intelligent creatures on earth ... for the same reason."

Eh...not really. The only atrocities dolphins don't do humans do are the ones they can't do. Anything from bullying, killing, and raping are pretty common pastimes for dolphins.
@@9308323 Dude that's a joke out of a british space comedy about how people interpret the same facts wildly different because of their perspective.
It's not actually about dolphins.
@@Fotoschiki These "facts" are demonstrably false, though. Just because it's meant to be a joke doesn't mean the point it's trying to make (which is serious enough, as you yourself demonstrated) wasn't undermined by the poor choice of example. Dolphins are one of, if not the biggest assholes of marine life.
Everything is processed in the brain. Vision happens in the brain, not in your eyes, if you want to take that perspective.
The taste section of this video is very true. When I was a stupid teenager (14), I was in a skateboarding accident (no helmet) that caused me to have a TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury). I landed head first on the pavement. When I woke up days later in the hospital, I lost both my sense of taste and smell. For years, both senses were faint. The loss of smell came in handy during the diaper changing years, however. Since that accident, my taste and smell have come back to some extent, but it seems only half. To this day, I just turned 45, there are things I can't smell or taste, or taste different than I remember.
Damn, sucks that you had to go through life like this, fortunately your accident wasn't fatal. So I say youre a lucky guy 😄👍
you want to go through what he went through, no ? then he 's not lucky
@@dawidsienczak9821 No worries. I lived through it. I was lucky. I learned from it. I was a stupid kid and learned a valuable lesson: Life is a gift that in a blink of an eye, it can be snuffed out. Sure I lost my smell and taste, but I eventually got some of that back. I am glad I didn't go blind, or worse, die from brain swelling. I was lucky.Thank you.
@@dawidsienczak9821 talking for others and being wrong in the process, nothing to add here.
@@newphonewhodis9940 saying it was lucky is stupid, saying it was partially lucky in some interpreted sense , maybe , I still don't agrre with this logic , also you seem sad.
I feel like the tongue one could be used for a lot of other parts, like you don't actually see with your eyes you see with your brain, you don't feel pain with your skin you feel pain with your brain. You don't smell with your nose, you smell with your brain

"the tongue taste map is wrong" no wonder the "sweet part" of my tongue is always burning whenever i eat spicy foods
It's the brain that gives a specific sensation to the signals from our sensory organs, it's not just for the taste.
Yeah, that part seemed a bit odd. You could say the exact same thing about smell, eyesight, hearing, etc.
But the point that we were told you only tasted salty things on one section of your tongue is a lie, and I knew it as a kid when I first heard that.
For years, it was thought that, on cell-count, we were only 10% human. I’m glad the updated information was included in the video.
No one in the medical field say that it is useless, they just say you don’t need it and for some it may cause more trouble than need be
Doctors have known for about 40 years - people a lot older than me have had theirs removed for no reason, but no one my age has. That’s the dividing line between doctors thinking there’s no harm in removing it versus doctors feeling that the appendix is useful and should only be removed when it’s dangerously inflamed.
the bacteria thing is misleading since it's not static. You lose a bunch of that "57%" whenever you take a dump
Is this why I feel like I can taste something I smell?
Which Animal is More VENOMOUS Than Any Other?! The answer is quite surprising!

Very interesting video. Is the coccyx used for anything? Or is it useless?
Box jellyfish ?
Depends on the context, most different venoms? I think the sea snail, with each species having 80+ different venoms. Most amount of venom, probably the daddy long leg.
Without watching the video, I can tell you that oz for oz, an Inland Taipan's venom is the most potent in the world. The box jellyfish is also very very high on the venom tier list.

@Timothy L. Fanai pretty much. Just subscribe to as many popular channels as you can and turn on notifications for them.

@Timothy L. Fanai I'm not American, so I don't know the meaning of those terms!
The top 3 things I learned from the thumbnail of this video: 1. Fingerprints arent unique. 2. Tongues aren't real. 3. Humans aren't human.
Thats what I heard
Fingerprints are unique, if you look at them closely enough. But our legal system doesn't.
Our legal system makes a lot of assumptions that actual scientists shake their heads at. Like looking at fire damage can definitely prove it was arson and where it started ... sometimes it works, but many times the "experts" are pretty much guessing, but the lawyers don't paint it that way at all. Lie detectors are very vague indicators of actually lying.Even DNA evidence may not be right, cross contamination is just one way it can fail.
The 'fact' that we are mainly microbe is also a myth. The amount of microbial cells and human cells are about equal most of the time, slightly fluctuating, but after defecation (and therefore flushing of the gut microbes) there are more human cells in the body compared to microbes.
The original myth about this is that microbes out number us around 10 to 1, but the fact is that it is closer to 1 to 1 (43%/57%), but this ratio varies from person to person. Thanks for watching.
@@DebunkedOfficial then why in the video it it addressed as humans think we are human, but the 'fact' is that we are more microbe than human?
@@Thrawnmulus I like you're thinking, however I don't think the microbe part of us has much thought on the matter. Thanks for watching
In your next video i am gonna coment of how did those life hacks channels luyed about the " toothpaste fixes broked phone screen (they could of say about a tablet screen, laugh or leave : )
For the "40% of heat from head" . . . The point is if you are wearing a thick jacket and no hat . . . and you are still cold . . . You will feel warmer by putting on a hat, than putting on a thicker jacket.
I guess we don't use only 10% of our brain either. For some, probably much less.
think maga
We don't. We use 1005 on our brains every day, but not at the same time. If that were to happen you would be having a seizure.
Other myths; that you only have 5 senses, ignoring things like balance and hunger.
Then the one about having to pee 6-7 times a day ... or is it true? Because if we sleep 8 hours, that menas you have to pee 6 times for 16 hours, that is almost every 3rd hour. Maybe it is true for some, but it just seems to often.
Thanks! Great suggestions for a future video.
The more liquid you consume, the more likely you will go to the toilet. If you consume alcohol, the frequency could increase up to 30minutes if you had a lot of liquid in your body beforehand. (Based off experience) I think most humans have to pee after they wake up.

shoutouts to all the little guys in there
the taste map really is stating where most receptors for each taste are in our tongue, saying it is fake because taste if felt in the brain makes no sense. it's like saying that our eyes don't have specific regions for perceiving colour and brightness because sight is actually in the brain
We need a shirt that says “I’m not fat my microbes are”
So much of what they taught me in grade school was a lie! Now I have to unlearn it all.
Fucking HATE fingerprints so much. I have to get old people to digitally scan their finger print for my job and it's impossible for 80 percent of them to do it. Their fingerprints no longer exist from a life of hardlabor.
Next they’re going to tell me that the brain named itself….. oh god….
It was at this moment he knew, the brain named itself.
Hypo, meaning low, natre, referring to sodium, or more formally natrium, and emia, meaning presence in blood.
Hyponatremia
Low sodium presence in blood.
Chubbyemu, i think, right?
Why shinx luxray is better
So... Finger prints are still person specific..
I have a finger that has a scar down the middle of it. On one side of the scar the fingerprint is an arch and on the other it is a loop and they would not match up if the scar was not there.
Sort of not related, but I am a guitar player and my left hand is so callused that when I was in high school we had a fingerprint scanner thing to pay for our school lunches since it was a lot faster and simpler than a card or whatever, but they wanted everyone to use their left pointer finger, and I was the only person I knew of that routinely had to use my right since it would just come up as basically a blank print with my left hand because the skin was so hard the machine couldn't read it.
Seems like if the fingerprint system pings on a match, you'd either re-run the scan woth more points, or do it manually.
Honestly, it was pretty painful when he said that "your fingerprint can match with others" while showing an image about % of accuracy. 💀
Like as..... matching of two things isn't supposed to be exactly 100% to call it matching? Otherwise it's just "similar".
So our fingerprints *are* different enough to be used for ID, but our methods of analysis are deeply flawed & need to be standardized, nor should any criminal case rest solely on fingerprints. You'd think with tech constantly getting better/cheaper/smaller, we'd have moved to computerized analysis already, since computers could be programmed to match as many reference points as possible.
Yeah and your eyes do not see, your ears do not hear, your nose does not smell and your skin does not feel, YOUR BRAIN DOES.
You say you taste with your brain, not with your tongue. I rubbed a pizza on my head. I couldn't taste anything!😂😂😂😂😂
You have a brain outside 💀
Next time you're out shopping you should buy a pack of common sense. Try rubbing that on your head and see if it helps. I am pretty sure you'll be able to grasp some of these concepts a bit easier...
@@dickjohnson7547 Or maybe you should buy a pack or sense of humour, or two. Because danielclark was clearly just joking.
Brain not head
People will do anything but workout to lose weigt... Now they are going to say that their microbes dont let them lose weight.
As nurse I can say all dehydrated people have darker urin, but that doesn't mean vice versa would be true. (okey, not "all". There are very specific illnesses (e.g. diabetes insipidus) or drugs (many diuretics) who fake this, or people with big areas with freshly burned skin. But that are edge cases)
Extracting microbiomes from athletes in poor schools for use by the upper class sounds like a great writing prompt
So basically human body is actually symbiotic
Even more, the human body is an ecosystem where different species live in ways that do not even affect us (commensalism)
My own experience backs up the theory about pee colour indicating hydration. I knew it was my microbiome making me fat, and nothing to do with all those cream cakes.
Its like saying our eyes dont see, our brain does
Exactly, all of our senses are techincally "in our brain", but without somthing to send distinct signals to the brain in the first place, you wouldn't have senses at all.
It's like saying the processor in a digital thermometer is what really senses the temperature, but disconnect the thermocouple and the processor won't be processing anything.
Most of these "facts" are quite close minded and lead to just as mamy misconceptions as they dispel
Yeah like for instance the fact a issue with ur eye or brain can make u blind, there both key for it to work… but really ur brain is what sees. Ur brain is you without it YOU can’t see anything

There is a 1 in 64 BILLION cance that you find someone with the same fingerprint.
So basically it is unique.
Not really, just like there is a 50% chance that 23 people in a room share a birthday, the fact that we have billions of people means there are many of them who share a fingerprint.
Is it exceedingly rare? Yes, but the chance that nobody has the same print is even rarer.
@@viktor1496 thats why i said basically.
One of those misconceptions should be that we are the smartest species on earth. Have you not seen some of the stupid shit we do?!
Not entirely sure how microbes living inside us as entirely separate beings that we have a symbiotic relationship with makes us less human, but alright.
It means that some cells inside our bodies aren’t human. Other than that, it doesn’t.

1 in over a billion match between two fingerprints. That is very close to there not being two identical finger prints...
Actually, that means that each person on this planet could have at least 700 other people who would have at least one matching fingerprint.

Napoleon wasn't short, he was 5ft 7 which was on the tall side for the average french person at that time.
Its just that he was 5ft 2 in french inches rather than British inches which were larger and was exploited as propaganda by the British, however in a twist of irony, spreading the metric system across Europe would mean this mistake would never happen again
Great extra myth! Thanks for watching, please share and subscribe 😊
Also people say he was short because he was usually around people way taller than him
Oh yeah . But he looked shorter in person ....
it feels like most of these myths were at most only partially debunked, like the urine color one seemed to only say that hydration is not the only thing that influences urine color not that being dehydrated doesn't change urine color.
With the fingerprint thing, I always thought it was weird because I have a feternal twin and we both use fingerprint locks on our phone.

this video is incorrect. they said we are the most intelligent.
Well dolphin can use almost or over 20% of their brains but we can use 15%. But were more intelligence when we talk about what we can do and what other creatures can do.

The last myth has also been debunked, there are roughly equal amounts of human and non-human cells, which fluctuates but is generally more human after defecation.
#6: Saying you taste with your brain rather than your tongue is pure sophism - that goes for _every_ other perception as well - the signals from the retina do not become "sight" before being processed in the visual cortex, to name just _one_ example. Also, this way of splitting hairs does not address the problem of the "taste map". Also also, most of the sensory information making up the "taste" sensation comes from *smell* receptors in the _nasal cavity,_ not on the tongue. Hold your nose closed to find out how bad this makes you at recognizing foods. With closed eyes, obviously.
#1: The 45% microbiome number has long been challenged (it is also left completely unclear _what_ percentage is measured here: *weight* or *number* of cells??), and once you are going there, why did you gloss over mitochondria? Our microbiome is not technically speaking _part of our human body,_ they just *_inhabit_* it. Our mitochondria, however, are essential parts of our every cells, and yet, they have their completely separate DNA that does not mingle with ours. Their evolutionary history from symbiotic single cell organisms suggests to classify _them_ as "not _strictly speaking_ part of our human body."
From a channel called "Debunked", I really expect better.
Maybe you shouldn't known better, anyone that has the word debunked in the title is looking for attention.

@@user-gp7vp9lq7d Well fortunately, the word "debunk" is also used by really high quality channels like Captain Disillusion (yes, in spite of this name, he makes really good videos), so it is not an automatic turn-off for me.

It actually HAS been proven that fingerprints aren't unique. There was a terrorist who set off a bomb on a train in Spain that proved this. The fingerprints came up as a match in the fingerprint database for someone in the US, who briefly got arrested for the crime even though they had never even been to Spain in the first place. Eventually the police found the actual bomber (and a ton of evidence that they were in the area at the time of the bombing) and they also had the same finger prints. The prosecution was later forced to admit in court that the person in the US had identical finger prints to the bomber..
Damm
But this story proves that there are only two people with matching finger prints, which is good enough!
They likely weren't identical, just very similar. They don't go over every tiny bit of each print,they just search for matching areas or details, and if there are enough, they figure they belong to a certain person.
You’re WRONG. Just because two different people had “identical” fingerprints according to the fingerprint database does NOT mean fingerprints aren’t unique. All that means is that the law enforcement techniques/ fingerprint database matching software aren’t fine-tuned enough yet to 100% accuracy. Fingerprints are so completely unique they only need a dozen or so reference points of the fingerprint to match for them to declare a match with certainty. Except for the apparent extremely rare occasions where two people have highly similar fingerprints, having the necessary number of identical reference points to the software analysis.
The actual level of detail the software is even capable of analyzing is the 30,000 foot view of our fingerprints. It’s laughable to claim they’ve “proven fingerprints aren’t unique” based on an error in law enforcement forensic science techniques.
0:23 Misconception #1: Humans are not 1,800,000 meters tall. Most are a million times shorter!
I am 1.8 m tall. I ought to have been 1.9 m tall. However, I was a breech birth, during which the delivering physician's blunder in dropping me twisted my neck; the resulting trauma resulted in scoliosis, kyphosis, etc., signifi- cantly diminishing my stature.
Given the considerable number of sprain injuries I over the years have sustained from different ways to fall, I am quite apprecia- tive not to have grown as tall as I ought to have. As it is, I have a 93 cm inside leg (36" inseam), size 14 feet, and poor vision, which in the aggregate are causal for all my numerous ambulatory mishaps.
"You're fat"
Me: No my microbiome just extracts more energy from food than everyone else
Lol
less*
it's the opposite I think. Energy that extracted by bacteria not stored as a fat, because fat is a human cell.
you are fat because there are many 'fat eater bacteria' requesting more fried chicken to your brain instead of 'vege eater bacteria'. Eat balanced food.
Elephants do also have a chin

In second 3:19 no wone have said to me that most heat we lose trough our head
Friend: Why you can't get fat despite eating all of that?
Me: I'm feeding my little friend.
Earwax birthday candles might just be the best idea I've heard all day
Nooooooo 😭😭😭
I'm going to start collecting my earwax and start making a birthday candle. Does anybody know anything I can try to stimulate more wax production in my ears 🌽?
The tongue one is quite a pointless fact. Every perception EVER occurs in the brain. That's no news for anyone.
The heat one I dont think is wrong, think its misunderstood. Theres two ways to look at it.
1. You lose 40% to 45% of your body heat through your head.
Or
2. They lost 40% to 45% of their heat from their head.
If you wrap them up, and bang them in the artic or what not, they still lost 40% to 45% of their heat because they didnt cover their head. Thats still a very important statement and shows the importance to cover up properly. I hate hats, but this does prove why i should wear when needed.
A question on number 5: It is understandable that surface area won't lose heat as fast as any other part of the body, but could the heat loss from the head be attributed to breathing out warm air and inhaling cold air, as it is the only part that actively takes in and expells external air at high volumes?
The last myth is kinda stupid to measure by numbers of cells instead of volume because eukaryotic cells (human cells) are 1,000-10,000 larger by volume than prokaryotic cells (bacteria) with viruses being even smaller.
