Y'all are awesome and appreciated. Thank you. ✌
Look, it has already started to happen. I have seen the cute dogs too many times after a bunch of complex words. Now every time I see big complex words I smile because all I can think of is cute puppies.
Look at this dood. All the science AND all of the cute animals. Keep it up, man, I adore your videos. I am so glad Tom Scott featured you. Also, RSS reader for the win!
I can't believe I was able to follow all that... You have a gift for explaining complicated things in an understandable way. Not to mention a gift for throwing in perfectly timed, hilarious jokes to make the whole experience awesome. 😃 My only complaint about your work is it doesn't come out more often. I've made videos so I know how much work it is so I understand why and all. Just sayin'. 👍
Isn't it pronounced "Yomon" and not "Joemon"? Or have I been misinformed this entire time? If I was, thanks for learning me even more! 😛 Thanks for taking me back to biology class! In this video you went more into detail than usually, but you did it in such a great way (the puppies and bear were a nice touch) that I feel anyone can get it and that they'll feel a whole lot smarter for watching! You do such a good job!
I'm SOOO envious! I was in Tokyo a few weeks ago but was too poor+scared to try fugu, I've always wanted to though ever since I was a kid (spoiler alert: it's Sailor Mars' favorite food, so I REALLY wanted to try it).
Here we go again with the food- let's get the beer now! Errr...I mean soda and juice...cuz I'm under age. Damn it! I'll go home now...wait I am home! Silly me -Awesome video as always, Alex. Thanks for having my comment in your video. Fugu is interesting, not sure if I would try it right now...I kinda want to live a long happy and healthy life! Maybe in the future. (Yeah, I'm not eating that) haha
Yyyyo mayn, what subjects do you study with personal interest? Psychology, philosophy, anthropology, morality, sociology, biology, chemistry, astronomy, physics, etc? Like what do you actually want to know, what does it have to provide you with?
I’ve been watching this guy for a while and I just laugh when I remember the first time I watched him I thought he was like 12-13 I don’t know y I thought that
You said that a fugu fish isn't dangerous when raised in a carefully controlled and heavily filtered tank. I didn't even bother right now to even google this stuff, but wouldn't it be obvious to have fugu fish raised in tanks and skip all the unnecessarily scary "you might kill people" preparation?
Melody Williams But the "you might kill people" aspect is probably a part of the fugu experience and is a traditional thing, and tradition is really important to japanese people. Also, maybe they are really difficult to raise in captivity, idk
My thoughts exactly, but then it would lose popularity because people eat it to show off, not to enjoy the taste. I personally wouldn't try it because it's just an overpriced fish.
Literally you are more important and have more functional purpose than the Japanese Emperor, so if it is too risky for him, then you should not be gambling your life away either.

From Tom Scott and the Technical Difficulties
FUGU
Technicality You look very similar to Carl from The Walking Dead and that is pretty cool.
lol shots fired at r/2meirl4meirl
Also fun fact about Vibrio, this is the same genus that contains the bacteria that cause Cholera.
He's just giving that sub new ideas I mean me too thanks
Your hair is so luscious. Do you use Pantene?
Up and Atom 😂
I commented on the hair first! Back off the wig is mine.

Raise your hand if your fugu education came courtesy of Tom Scott and the rest of TechDif!
Okay, I just found your channel, but holy cow mate, you're an amazing presenter.
okay okay okay, i don't know if its because he's so knowledgeable or his delightful sense of humour but either way he's 'segwayed' into my heart lmao
You got even funnier! How?!
Awesome content as always.
Well, I watched this video. That segways us nicely into me saying that you did a great job! Very informative 😁
Seriously dude, what product do you use? Your hair looks amazing. Is that really good shampoo and conditioner or just grease?
I would say get a hair cut. But your hair is flawless! Lol
15 likes but no love from technicality! 😢😂
Oh my god he liked it
This aged well 😂
You're getting better every video! Keep up the good work.
Subscribed in less than 40 secs! Great job and keep it up!
Fun fact:. During the fugu training, the trainer has to actually eat the prepared fish by the last stages of the exam to pass it.
always good to watch....ALWAYS...
Isn't it pronounced "Yomon" and not "Joemon"? Or have I been misinformed this entire time? If I was, thanks for learning me even more! 😛

That's in Spanish.
It's closer to "joemon". You can enter 縄文時代 into Google Translate and hear how it's pronounced.
Yes, Jō-mon
(in a baritone voice) Ataaaaack! unggh... THUD. You are taking your comedy as seriously as your science... #loveit
Bobblehead Dwight Is in the background
I needed that neuron resting and action potential bit a year ago in AP bio!
Very interesting - more interesting than expected for a video about a fish dinner...
Dear Mr alex thankyou for sharing this and I hope you can tell us about yourself more
I'm SOOO envious! I was in Tokyo a few weeks ago but was too poor+scared to try fugu, I've always wanted to though ever since I was a kid (spoiler alert: it's Sailor Mars' favorite food, so I REALLY wanted to try it).
3:52 BATMAN!!!!!!
Pat D lol xD
Here we go again with the food- let's get the beer now! Errr...I mean soda and juice...cuz I'm under age. Damn it! I'll go home now...wait I am home! Silly me
-Awesome video as always, Alex. Thanks for having my comment in your video. Fugu is interesting, not sure if I would try it right now...I kinda want to live a long happy and healthy life! Maybe in the future. (Yeah, I'm not eating that) haha
Man!!! Are you growing !!
Puppies, Jacksfilms, and Logic a video can't get any better then that
Yyyyo mayn, what subjects do you study with personal interest? Psychology, philosophy, anthropology, morality, sociology, biology, chemistry, astronomy, physics, etc?
Like what do you actually want to know, what does it have to provide you with?
Is this the fish they talked about in an old Citation Needed episode?
Wow that smile, will always enjoy that transition. 😶
And you get a puppy and you get a puppy EVERYBODY GETS A PUPPY
(also I subscribed because I love your videos)
(Also thanks,you helped me in a test 😅)
Cool :)
When I'm in Japan (hopefully within the next year or two) I will eat one of those :)
Title for the ending "Falling over, more difficult than you'd think".
You are *literally* going places
0:12 cue the insane shaky cam! :D
Literally subscribed yesterday and I'm already so hooked. Last 20 seconds was my favourite hahaha
I’ve been watching this guy for a while and I just laugh when I remember the first time I watched him I thought he was like 12-13 I don’t know y I thought that
Loudly slurping noodles: Deadlier than fugu
"about 100,000,000,000 of them to be exact"... somehow the words "about" and "exact" don't feel right :D
5:42 The Meaning of life, teh universe, and everythi'n
How old are you?
Now do one about fermented shark meat.
4:19 Me: proceeds down a 2 hour rabbit hole of r/2meirl4meirl
Huh, would’ve expected it to taste more like pork based on the name
I like this. Good job
Here from Tom scot....slow down a bit but otherwise not disappointing well done video indeed. -Wait you didn't ask my opinion...my bad.
You said that a fugu fish isn't dangerous when raised in a carefully controlled and heavily filtered tank. I didn't even bother right now to even google this stuff, but wouldn't it be obvious to have fugu fish raised in tanks and skip all the unnecessarily scary "you might kill people" preparation?

you never mentioned that fugu is also called pufferfish
7:18 *and I also don't want to get demonetized*
Love your vids and do u skate
Why do people even it something that could be so deadly? The fish can't be that delicious.
Oh look! A puppy! I know what that is!
That one Tom Scott Tech Diff video: ruclips.net/video/G6f5k_nO9ZY/видео.html
I challenge you to an arm wrestling match!
resting and inaction? I've never identified more with a biological molecule
More like this fish is delicious.
I want to eat this. Ill eat anything
Literally you are more important and have more functional purpose than the Japanese Emperor, so if it is too risky for him, then you should not be gambling your life away either.
Jono_99 that is a very reasonable statement but it is such a rare case for ones sold by approved vendors to be deadly.
yo that's finna woke
🐶💕
Why is this deadly fish being served? This fish is made in the EU
woooo memes
Literally did not understand a thing
Entertaining none the less
