OMG, Hank has curly hair now!
lol My curls got cut as a child & came back in my late teens. It worked out because the whole time it was straight, feathered hair was a thing lol
He looks more like John Green than ever
Ever heard of a perm? Not saying that’s true but what better time to do such a thing?
@@user-el8in2rm2eit’s from chemo I think! It does a lot to your body and can mess with hair growth permanently
Apparently. After having cancer, some peoples hair grow out looking very different
"We'll call them umm Mike... and Alistair... because those are their names"
Oh you rascal Hank!
I came here to say this but less whimsical British nanny and more lazy American space nerd.
should call them Tom and Jerry. lol
"My name is Giovanni Giorgio, but people call me Giorgio"
Seems like a shot at Ray William Johnson who never uses anyone's names but makes them up all the time.
@@mrfreekillonly us old folk would get that reference
"We'll call them Mike and Alistair, because those are their names" 😁
This slayed me
Have scientists considered the possibility of a Missouri kaiju stirring in its sleep?
Probably
😊
Yeah but there’s no way Missouri would be that interesting so it can’t be true
@@teathesilkwing7616 😂😂😂😂 as someone living in Missouri I can confirm
Paul Bunyon is a Kaiju and had decided to visit the state.
Hanks curly era, im all for it! :)
I love it he looks so great
my mother had that happen after her chemotherapy, too. it didn't stay curly.
The broccoli haircut is so hot right now.
Hank looks off-brand in that T-shirt, and his curly hair. ;D
Every time i watch something about volcanos i remember my older brother telling me when i was about three that volcanos were how the earth farted.
That would be more like geysers. A volcano is more like diarrhea.
You made me literally laugh out loud. Thanks for that. 😂
Sounds fair to me. A fart is just biological outgassing.
Cute!
He is not wrong. And subduction zones are where the Earth noms up its old skin.
🎵 we didn’t start the fire. It was always burning 🎵 😉
I was waiting to hear that!! Came so close.
ah, indigenous generational knowledge... thanks! I'm not alone in the world!🤗
Just not quite since the world's been turning
That's awesome your hair is going back to normal.... You should see Paul Brodies hair after his treatments. It went from curly to poofy and he says it's a different texture too.... So cool to see so many people being treated for cancers and getting better, it makes me confident in the treatments. Keep up the great work Hank and Sci Show crew... 😊❤
I don't think most people really realize how fast new cancer treatments are being developed, how many cancers are getting tackled and how good cancer treatments are becoming.
I mean, in the 60's, cancer was basically a death sentence. In the 80's your chances were bleak, but much better. But you weren't likely to live for long. In the 2000's, it was getting better, but still kinda considered a death sentence and treatments were still brutal. Today, cancer treatment can be far less intrusive, takes less time and fewer surgeries. Your odds of surviving cancer are not just higher, but odds of it not returning are better than even just a few years ago.
Cancers are still deadly and will continue to be one of the top causes of deaths in humans, but our methods of fixing cancer's and various other diseases has gotten so much better than in the future, brain diseases will become the biggest threat and are probably already gonna be responsible for more deaths than not on a yearly basis. Diseases like Alzheimer's and dementia or Parkinson's.
It's not just a win for Hank, his family and friends or his audience, but it's a win for humanity. We are getting better at treating cancers and survival rates are improving every year.
@@magnusbjarni - Exactly my point, it's gotten so good now that people go in w/ a growing tumor and come out weeks later w/ no tumor because of treatment and surgery that removed all of it but back then they could barely shrink a tumor.... Now we have options for treatment before surgery, if it's needed at all, it's so crazy but also super cool.
I always love talking to people about New Madrid. My university was in the areas that have those earthquakes (though there were apparently aftershocks all the way up to Peoria from one when I was younger) and me and one of my music profs spent more time talking about that in one of my lessons than we did music related things.
Peoria mentioned let's gooooo
@@NazuikoHuge win
so
The magnitude of these events is genuinely awe-inspiring. It almost grants a new perspective on the grand timeline of our planet.
Yep It's great to just jabber away
Good to see you looking so well Hank. Great episode, a bunch of new facts I'd not heard of before.
Eons call out! Love crossovers 🦖
I love that you touched on the New Madrid earthquakes and the sheer weirdness of the fault zone, it is what got me into geology. Interestingly enough, most of the zone is in the path of totality, and I want to try to make it to Cape Girardeau, Missouri, just north of New Madrid
There's a lot of channels/videos out there that will lure me in with an interesting premise, then faff about for 10+ minutes before actually addressing the point of interest. This video saved the two-century earthquake till the end, but everything discussed leading up to that was interesting and worth the time.
Thank you for continuing to run such a cool channel! I'm really happy to see your treatment is going well!
My husband and I will be along the path of the eclipse. Texarkana(35 minutes from us) is trying to get some tourism into town with it. So we should be able to see it from the park on the Texas side.(Note here texarkana is actually a town split along the Arkansas and Texas borders for anyone interested)
This episode made me think of something really cool. You guys should do an episode or two on the "Most Beautiful places on Earth, and the science behind them." You could send some of your team to vacation in those areas too and do some field research. It might be a pretty amazing video and give a lot of people some ideas on places to visit too.
That’s a fantastic idea!!!
There’s the obvious ones, like the Grand Canyon, Mt Fuji, Mt Kilimanjaro, but there are some slightly less obvious ones that would be awesome to cover.
A couple that come to mind: Kuang Si falls in Laos, Point Reyes in California, and Halong Bay in Vietnam.
When talking about the New Madrid fault line's really bad earthquake, SciShow could've mentioned that the Mississippi River altered it's course and flowed backwards for a bit of time as well...along with church bells as far away as Boston ringing.
I would love for SciShow to do an episode about the worst ever earthquake to hit North America, The Alaska Earthquake. I think it occurred in the late 1800s or early 1900s.
How about Good Friday in 1963 or 1964?
Was not expecting the New Madrid Quakes to be the one from the title! I live in St. Louis, and overall I'm not sure we take the risk seriously enough here, but we probably moved toward being a lot safer due to a crack pot guy in 1990 who predicted a massive earthquake would happen Dec 3rd of that year and cause massive destruction across the Midwest. I was a little kid and I can remember the near panic and tons of public safety messages about what to do during an earthquake and how we should all be preparing, with reasonably good advice aside from inducing that panic. Nothing happened of course. But one of my friends dads sent her to school in one of his hard hats from work that day. (and no one made fun of her that I can remember, we maybe wished we had hard hats too...) I used to work in a building that was built a few years after that, and it's built to very strong earthquake standards, with base isolators and more, even though those kind of protections still aren't required.
I was born and raised in indianapolis, and I'm going back up to witness the eclipse with my brother in april. Might have to get us matching shirts for that. Really looking forward to it! If you actually are going to Indianapolis and that wasn't just a gag, Broad Ripple is a great time if you have a chance to explore the city.
Hank, it is great to see you on your feet and in front of the camera 💯
I grew up in Missouri and in the 90s they thought the next BIG ONE was coming so everything in our schools was strapped to the wall. Bookshelves, TV carts, etc.
Hi Hank!
Who knew natural disasters could be so... generational?
Woof, an episode that could have been made just for me, in that it hits so many areas that I find fun and fascinating in 15 glorious minutes with the crowning glory of seeing our Hank.
I was born and lived my first 14 years just a few miles to the north of New Madrid. We experienced a lot of tremors then (the '50s and '60s). Our farm was one of the places that the earthquake refugees fled to. Unfortunately it was an abysmal swamp, freezing in the winter and filled with malaria laden mosquitoes. Thanks for pronouncing New Madrid and Missouri correctly.
I am very happy just to see Hank back and in full swing.
so happy to see hank looking better and still making wonderful educational content after the cancer fight and chemo, we love you!!!
Hello Hank,
Hope you're all doing well at SciShow
This channel always has the perfect video to watch with my boyfriend, a science teacher.
Hank, you are looking very well.
You're looking good. I'm glad you're doing well.
Thank you, Hank, for pronouncing New Madrid correctly!
I'm actually scanning the comments to see how many people were complaining that he didn't say "Mah-drid"!
Good to see you brother
Lookin good Hank 🔥🔥
I moved to SF ten years ago!! Every year or two we get an earthquake usually to write home about. I’ve had about 4 quakes to write about.
I've actually lived my whole life (32yrs) on what's known as Crowley's Ridge on the New Madrid fault line and we have tiny little quakes all the time but 99% of the time you can't even tell it's happening unless it's completely quiet and you're sitting absolutely still. I can honestly say I've never noticed one but the news and the Internet always tell me when one has occured.
Looking good bud! Hopefully your health is too. We all love you
That episode was like a dream of consciousness and it was awesome
That first sentence is a HUGE understatement.
Lookin good hank ❤
Over here in the UK, it’s also been raining for the past 2million years.
Thanks Hank😊
I love hearing about the mystery of the New Madrid!!! Would love to hear even more!
Lookie 👀 that mop on Hank's head. I love it! I'm glad you're doing well, sir. ❤
Great show Hank love your brain sir...
SO happy to see you back! Stay good, bro. 😘
I think about New Madrid every time I drive across that I40 bridge into Memphis! 😮
Great episode. Glad to see Hank in good health and great spirits.
It makes me happy to see Hank doing better
nature is truly awesome
the Carnian Pluvial Episode reminds me of a french joke about Brittany:
dude comes home from a 2-week vacation in Brittany and his friend asks him if it rained much; dude answers: "only twice: 1 time for 5 days and 1 time for 9 days" ^ç^
HANK! It's good to see you so energetic!
Also thanks for this, I've went back into my obsession with volcanoes lately.
Love me my sci show & Hank!!! Hank, you’re more than welcome to come hang out with us about an hour and fifteen minutes from Indy. The Spencer area; we’ll have good food and excellent peeps!
He didn't mention that the Missions River flowed backwards at one point. I was visiting Southern Illinois University in 1968. There was an earthquake. I was told that it caused the University library to shake back and forth. It shook the building I was in. It was at least 4 if not 5 stories. The group I was with ran out of that building as fast as we could.
Oops Mississippi River
@@kathrynsamuelson1983Just edit your comment
@@Wolfie54545 I tried at the time but couldn't. You would have known that if you had read the reply. And I would have appreciated a please.
@@Wolfie54545 Apparently you didn't notice that I did. I will no longer reply to you as you have a lack of courtesy
Oh my goodness I love the t-shirts and totally buying two of them. We are driving all the way from Southern California to Dallas to see it.
Looking good sir, keep it up 🙏👍
The Carnian Pluvial episode. Ever been to Scotland
🤣
My schools doing research for NASA for this event and I’m on the team! Super excited for it!
Mount Yasur? Yessir!
We already got our glasses and are pulling the kids out of school to go see totality. It's just a 1.5 hour drive down into the thick of it. Here's to hoping the weather is good. :)
Yay, almost 15 minutes of SciShow today!
Damn Hank that fro tho!
Hank's shirt caught my eye.
"Path of Totality" (and the black & white orbs) tells me that it's somehow about the upcoming solar eclipse. But couldn't find out what "ékleiisis" actually means.
Using an online ancient Greek translation site, it is seen as Turkish.
Any further exposition?
It's meant to be "ÉKLEIPSIS" (ἔκλειψις - "eclipse"), with the overlapping sun and moon being the curved upper parts of "P" and "S". I read it as "ÉKLEIISIS" too until I went to the DFTBA Store to check it out
Looks icelandic to me. But I'm wondering too.
It's ÉKLEIPSIS -- the one orb is the hoop on the "P". Ékleipsis (ἔκλειψις) is the og Greek.
Okay, it's a shirt sold by this channel. You are right, it's about eclipses, and an imaginary rock band.
Ekleipis - eclipses, that is a pi character you are seeing as a double 'ii'
You're looking great Hank good to have you back dude!
Looking good!!!
I didnt know this channel existed. Been missing out.
Im surprised that natural nuclear reactor in Oklo wasn't mentioned. Having a uranium deposit that routinely goes critical as it floods and lasted for hundreds of thousands of years seems up there with a coal seam fire. And as a science bonus once we figured out what had happened we were able to use it to see if the fine structure comment had changed in the intervening couple billion years.
Looking good, Hank!
I love you Hank
Man....that hair is on point....that's how you punch cancer in the face
Took me way too long to grasp the joke on the t-shirt.
I don't get it :(
Or rather, I get the science side of it, but I don't get what cultural thing it refers to
I've driven more or less past Mt Wingen several times (it's near a major inland highway) but didn't know about it and so never thought to pop in to have a look.
Re: eclipses, there's a total one due in my part of the world in 2028 which will alas only be partial (albeit 99.4%) over Mt Wingen, so I couldn't quite manage a twofer there.
No mention of the Siberian Traps? I guess it's probably the best-known example... and it was covered well by PBS Eons. I'd never previously heard of three of these four.
Path of Totality would be a good name for a rock band.
It totally would.
Thank u
3:04 The Stromboli volcano isn't *on* Sicily, the volcano is on its own namesake island north of the northeastern tip of Sicily.
He said all this and never took a breath. Impressive!
Yup I'll be at my family's ranch in Texas for the eclipse, can't wait! We already have the glasses though. :)
The best explanation for the New Madrid earthquake I've can think of is that it is a a result of the long term redistribution of mass by the Mississippi River. I've read that there is about a 10 miles thick layer of soil off the coast in the Gulf of Mexico as half a continent's worth of sediment is transported south by the Mississippi. That huge mass is pressing down on the southern edge of the continent. This results stress to the north, and the New Madrid earthquake is the last time some of that stress got relieved.
Hank's real talent of combining a huge intellect with humor is absolutely magnetic.
Love your hair hank
I grew up on the New Madrid fault line. One of my earliest memories is of a strong tremor. Mom had just set the table and the silverware and glasses started rattling. I had no clue what was going on. But my parents explained it afterward. I didn't fully understand the process. I had a terrible fear that a chasm had open in the ground and swallowed up all my toys in the yard. Fortunately, the next morning, they were all still there.
Looking good Hank.👍 Love the new hair!!🙂
Reading the old newspaper articles of first-hand accounts of the new madrid earthquake is absolutely wild.
Some talked about the river rising up in front of them causing waterfalls and the river to flow backwards before slamming back down and leaving fissures.
Couple years ago I had a dream a bunch of bears were running through the forest past me & my sisters making the whole ground shake.
Turned out to be an actual eaethquake happening while I slept😂🤣🤷♀️
Mt St Helen's eruption in 1980 lasted a little longer than a few days! I was there in late July, almost three months later, and it erupted FIVE TIMES, in a matter of a few hours. My brother lived in Mattawa, about 115 miles east of St Helens, and he was shoveling ash off his roof through the rest of the year, lest it cave in!
The New Madrid earthquake raised a ridge minimum ten feet high, for 300 miles!
I live right in the path of totality and I’m so stoked!
I was also living in the path of totality in 2017. And I was able to see an annular eclipse in 1994!
I’m beyond excited to see another total eclipse in my lifetime.
I hope you are doing better Hank.
Love the curly hair, Hank!! 😊❤
I have been intending to go to Dallas for the eclipse, and I made my hotel reservations yesterday. Woo-hoo!
Glade you looking good big dawg...
Hank's post chemo curly hair is so cool.
I really envy everyone who lives in the path of the total eclipse. I was lucky enough to see one in 1999 while on holiday in Normandy. It was magical. We drove towards Étretat, but got stranded in Honfleur because traffic on the highway had come to a halt. We were following the secondary road. Honfleur has a beautiful harbour at its centre and hundreds of people had gathered around it. It was cloudy all morning, but just before the moon moved in front of the sun the clouds lifted. The light changed, the birds fell silent and then the people did too. The total eclipse was so beautiful. And then the light returned, people applauded as if they had been watching a play, then they dispersed and it became cloudy once more.
Master Hank, sir, it is good to see you in front of the green screen agin. It would be SciShow without your presence. Hang in there, ok?
April 8, zone of totality is a 20 min drive. Already booked the day off work :)
Welcome back
Ok. I grew up in the US East Coast. I had no idea there were regular quakes that close to me.
Remember the 2010 quake? Well we got a 2.4 one last month and possibly another one tonight.
@@ferretyluv I do remember that one actually. I didn't feel it but everybody was talking about it. I was in Georgia at the time.
We get plenty of little ones. I remember there were about 4 in a row where I was driving at the time, and I had no idea. The only one I ever felt was the 2010 quake.
I can relate to 2 century's of increased activity.
Iceland incase you are curious
Every 1000 years or so we experience 200 years of increased activity and yes the current eruptions on the reykjanes peninsula are the beginning of those 200years
Rocking that curly hair!!!!
One of the coal seams under Coventry is also on fire.
About 1,500 ft down.
Cause by mining activity introducing oxygen, but almost impossible to put out.

I grew up in St Louis, lived for a time in the St Francis uplift. It seems to me that there is a constant twisting in center of continent. Like a wrinkle in the middle of a made bed that gets sheet pulled at edges
Weekend of 4/8, in Austin, TX for the art & music festival hosted by Yuris Night
Cool
