    Every video gives such a soothing feeling but there's something about the sound of the turning of pages that really does it for me. Thanks for all of the content Tim and team, you give me everything I never thought I knew I needed ❤

    7:40 this "horse lip pincher" is a "twitch", in Germany it's also called "nose brake". It's still used today. Reliant method to put a "brake" on a horse before it stampedes off.

      I had to look it up. I understand it is not harmful if used correctly, but the correct way looks horrible! I couldn't imagine how terrible it would be to use it incorrectly. I honestly couldn't tell you if I could bring myself to do something like that to a horse. A human on the other hand...
      I'm joking. I would never do anything like that to Human. By the way a totally unrelated question. Where would be the best place to find one of those?

    One of my favorite books in my possession is the “25-foot-long Picture Maze” by Conceptis Puzzles. It opens up like the book on the Thames, but it is a maze you can follow from one end to the other, and if you fill the path completely the result is a lovely panorama picture. On the back you have the same maze, but already filled up with the solution. I think you would like it.

    That clothes shop isn't far off what we actually see on the streets here in Manila.
    Many shops put their items out on the sidewalk, or hanging from the outside of the store, to get peoples attention - without them having to enter the shop.

    As a former ARES volunteer, I was lucky to see a roll cloud once, years ago.
    Since I don't get out very often, I don't see as much natural formations!
    Unfortunately, I don't have my nose in a book as often as I used to, since I watch videos on the various providers. And the books I do read are usually a technical manual!

    That road cloud appears here from time to time. I live in a small city in Brazil, called Aparecida. We have the second biggest church in the world. That cloud is crazy! I've seen ufologists say that cloud is literally a road, to hide spaceships routes.

    When I was a kid I saw a farrier (one who puts shoes on horses) use one of those "nose pinchers" to divert the attention (or gain control) of a misbehaving horse during shoeing. It worked well and gave the horse something else to think about.

    I love vertical and horizontal developments, its a simple fact of life a lot of people and just human designs and concepts do not understand the proper possibilities of expression in 3 and 4 dimensions like they should, it is often 2d and merely a reaction of needing to be designed by function and not a reflection of the possibilities by the realization of a given like a lot of the more impressive stuff out there.
    Shame the pragmatic and proper use of higher vertical and horizontal expansions for most designs is often disregarded due to form factors and human habit to simplify things and standardize them instead of realizing the full potential of things. Its true a lot of such undertaking usually takes more material and efforts and the format has to be reworked to fit an extended portrayal but to me it always brings personality and provenance to such items.
    I speak of everything from toys to books to machines here and so on, its crazy how our form factor modifications for most situations are usually straight up scaling of dimensions rather than a re-imagining of these same dimensions which would allow to show more in a single eye's vision, cram more features in a gadget or simply make some things better form factors to use and enjoy personally.
