Thank you! I do trivia with older blind people three times a week and I’d like to start out with an odd fact. I’m definitely going to use these so I have like 10 weeks worth :-).

Adolf Hitler and Andy Serkis both have birthdays on April 20. The USS Sultana sank in the Mississippi River on April 27, 1865 after a boiler exploded, killing 1,168 people, making it the worst maritime disaster in United States history, but you probably never heard of it because it was overshadowed in the news at the time by the assassination of Abraham Lincoln which happened just twelve days earlier. The plastic tube on the end of a shoelace is called an aglet. The oldest joke ever found written down is a found on a Sumerian clay tablet dating back to 1900 BC. It's a fart joke. Rumors about actress Halle Berry having six toes on one foot led to her being offered an endorsement deal from a company that made extra-spacious shoes. The art of making images with ink blots is called klecksography. Artwork engraved on a piece of ivory or bone is called scrimshaw. The head of the bounty hunter droid IG-88, who appears in the movie Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, is actually an upside-down espresso machine. Former US President Jimmy Carter was once photographed fleeing from a rabbit who was attacking him while he was riding a rowboat in a swamp. Oranges are naturally green when ripe and stay green as long as they are kept warm in the topics where they grow. They turn orange when shipped to North America and Europe, where they are exposed to cooler temperatures which cause them to lose chlorophyll.

A fun fact: when Germany invaded France in ww2, French resistance members cut the cable to the elevator in the Eiffel tower, making the nazis use the stairs.
As a school teacher myself I went into this wondering just how useless this all could be. I am now prepared for the most fringy of fringe questions at trivia night. Lol
2:40 i wonder if another factor in lumberjack deaths is the remoteness of the work. There are a lot of injuries that are non-fatal if an ambulance can arrive within a few minutes and the victim can be on an operating table shortly afterwards, but if youre working way out in the woods, you could bleed put/succumb to shock/whatever before medical help arrives.
Fun Fact to Monopoly: Germanys Monopoly is the only "original" country-based Monopoly version, that does not use actual Berlin and its landmarks, like all other countries (like France) do. Reason: there actually was a Monopoly version based in Berlin, but one of the Nazileaders (i cant remember whether it was Göring or Göbels) didn't like to see his own home street somewhere in the middle of the game board, indicating that he is just average. so the version was banned and remade by the company to suit nazi Germanys needs. ;)

For the hail Bails one it is absolutely astonishing and fascinating seeing the combustion. I’ve seen the aftermath of it once and it was terrifying but beautiful. It was an entire barn filled to the brim that combusted and when I drove by it was like a glowing inferno. All I saw was flames filling the entire building. The police and fire trucks just stayed outside of it while they waited it out. There was no way to put out it out all they could do was let it burn out and just make sure it didn’t spread. But the flames were so dense and the way they filled the building to the top since the bails were up to the top was insane to me. No one was hurt expect their wallet who owned it. The building was totaled and all the bails gone obviously.
So, I think the main reason this series is popular, is that it stimulates our brain's constant anxiety that we're not learning as much as we're supposed to. By giving us a long list of easily digestible and diversified lessons, convincing us that we've been productive by watching it without costing much effort
The thing about the wet hay reminds me of a story my Grandfather told me. He was born in 1894. When he was a teenager he drove a hay wagon. When it started raining they had to get the wagon under cover fast so that it could not create methane which could burst into flames.
11:32 The originals were made in Britain, so the correct name (just like with football) is the British one. American publishers thought Wally wouldn't work well with Americans and so changed it to Waldo (as if that's any better). The name changes all over the world, but I think we can all agree that the worst one is France, who call him Charlie - it isn't even alliterative, in English or French (Où est Charlie?)! The Germans call him Walter.
Me an guy that loves history and was planning to pay on more education on history: how dar- oh wait I just started to be interested in history because of the internet
Sadly I love world history but I just got almost perfect grades on history because of the internet, and not school lol, there's things that I knew 4 years before it being on a test because of it
13:23 The fact about lumberjacks having the highest fatality rate is actually false. Being the President actually has the highest mortality rate. Of the 44 people who have served as president, 4 were assassinated, achieving the mortality rate of 9,091 deaths for every 100,000 people compared to the 136 to 100,000 for lumberjacks. Edit: I know it is a ridiculously small sample size to extrapolate from, I still thought it was interesting.
I broke my collar bone really early on. I'm pretty sure it was before kindergarten. I was at my grandma's house and decided to climb the bookcase while she was turned around. It fell over on top of me. This is why all of the bookshelves she had while at that house were nailed to the wall.
At the time "travel vlogs" were actually one of the most popular genres of literature. These travel blogs were supposedly facutal but kind of outlandish, and people believed them because back then ppl just didn't know what was beyond the borders of the Roman empire so these authors could just make shit up. The "A true story" book with space warfare and shit was a parody of the other books anf basically called them out
The book is basically a satire of ancient travel guides. The best part is at the end, the narrator promises more stories would be written about in the future-which never happened.

2:40 i wonder if another factor in lumberjack deaths is the remoteness of the work. There are a lot of injuries that are non-fatal if an ambulance can arrive within a few minutes and the victim can be on an operating table shortly afterwards, but if youre working way out in the woods, you could bleed put/succumb to shock/whatever before medical help arrives.
Fun Fact to Monopoly:
Germanys Monopoly is the only "original" country-based Monopoly version, that does not use actual Berlin and its landmarks, like all other countries (like France) do.
Reason: there actually was a Monopoly version based in Berlin, but one of the Nazileaders (i cant remember whether it was Göring or Göbels) didn't like to see his own home street somewhere in the middle of the game board, indicating that he is just average. so the version was banned and remade by the company to suit nazi Germanys needs. ;)

For the hail Bails one it is absolutely astonishing and fascinating seeing the combustion. I’ve seen the aftermath of it once and it was terrifying but beautiful. It was an entire barn filled to the brim that combusted and when I drove by it was like a glowing inferno. All I saw was flames filling the entire building. The police and fire trucks just stayed outside of it while they waited it out. There was no way to put out it out all they could do was let it burn out and just make sure it didn’t spread. But the flames were so dense and the way they filled the building to the top since the bails were up to the top was insane to me. No one was hurt expect their wallet who owned it. The building was totaled and all the bails gone obviously.

So, I think the main reason this series is popular, is that it stimulates our brain's constant anxiety that we're not learning as much as we're supposed to. By giving us a long list of easily digestible and diversified lessons, convincing us that we've been productive by watching it without costing much effort
So its like ASMR videos where it makes feel we have done work to tidy things up though we haven't.
Thank you for making me feel bad about myself.🙃

11:32 The originals were made in Britain, so the correct name (just like with football) is the British one. American publishers thought Wally wouldn't work well with Americans and so changed it to Waldo (as if that's any better). The name changes all over the world, but I think we can all agree that the worst one is France, who call him Charlie - it isn't even alliterative, in English or French (Où est Charlie?)! The Germans call him Walter.

13:23 The fact about lumberjacks having the highest fatality rate is actually false. Being the President actually has the highest mortality rate. Of the 44 people who have served as president, 4 were assassinated, achieving the mortality rate of 9,091 deaths for every 100,000 people compared to the 136 to 100,000 for lumberjacks.
Edit: I know it is a ridiculously small sample size to extrapolate from, I still thought it was interesting.
We should group POTUS under the “head of state” profession more broadly for a fairer comparison. Lumberjack still wins out under that framework.
44 also seems like a ridiculously small sample size to extrapolate statistics for a population of 100,000 from

The "True Story" fact was my favorite bit in the whole video. 👍
At the time "travel vlogs" were actually one of the most popular genres of literature. These travel blogs were supposedly facutal but kind of outlandish, and people believed them because back then ppl just didn't know what was beyond the borders of the Roman empire so these authors could just make shit up. The "A true story" book with space warfare and shit was a parody of the other books anf basically called them out
The book is basically a satire of ancient travel guides.
The best part is at the end, the narrator promises more stories would be written about in the future-which never happened.
