Awesome Vsauce

As usual, Vsauce doesn’t really focus on his titular topic. But he does briefly talk about that extreme form of creationism, along with how the universe will “remember” your existence, whether you like it or not.

Vsauce enumerates some of the rules of war, sports and professions to argue that these fields are fairer than love, which of course has no formal legislation. But not before he pulls off a legendary segue into graphite.

Michael from Vsauce takes a look at the frequent use of the wrong words and names to describe things. And that comparing apples to oranges might not be such a bad idea afterall. As usual, he’s on to a completely different topic by the end.

Vsauce looks at why we love looking for coincidences: partly because our brains our wired to look for patterns, and partly because we have so many variables to work with. Thanks + for + watching?! Half-Life 3 confirmed.

Vsauce looks at ways to quantify the value of Earth. Then he points out how ridiculous it is that we can even think of selling our planet. Of course, those are just a few of the things he races through in the video.

Vsauce didn’t bother pretending it had a central topic this time, launching straight into a semester’s worth of English and language trivia. The funny thing is, Michael still manages to ramble completely off-topic at the end.

Once again, Vsauce alternately blows and deflates our minds with really-but-not-really scenarios as he discusses shadows, nighttime and darkness made by light, then somehow ends up talking about intellectual darkness.

Vsauce and Veritasium teamed up to look at the concept of randomness. Michael explains how most of the things we describe as random are in fact predictable, but at the same time true randomness could actually be everywhere.

Vsauce’s Michael Stevens is back to ask and attempt to answer another imponderable: just how many things are there in the universe? And we’re not just talking about physical objects – you see, everything is a thing. Even this post.

Can something that doesn’t exist have copies? In an era where art can be perfectly replicated, why do we still value the original work? Also, you’re a forgery. All that and more in another thought-provoking episode of Vsauce.

Hey! Awesomer. Lambert here. YouTube comedian Jack Douglass pokes fun at the beloved knowledge-dropping channel Vsauce and the presentation style of its host Michael. And as always, thanks for whoa – did not expect that.

(Gross) Vsauce takes on a topic that you may have secretly wondered about, but hopefully never explored. Learn about cannibalism, what ingredients different cultures prefer – and why we’re not going to eat veal ever again.

Vsauce takes a look at some of the most popular or influential mistakes in human history, from trivial ones such as the silent ‘k’ in words to the mind-blowing – albeit dubious – tale of a British war hero who let a young Adolf Hitler live.

Michael from Vsauce explains what makes a swear word a swear word. Awesomer head cheese Paul Strauss has lived in three of the top five swearingest states – so it’s no wonder he gets his mouth washed out with Lifebuoy weekly.

Michael from Vsauce explores humankind’s fearful reaction to things that aren’t actually dangerous. Vagueness, ambiguity and things that are just slightly off are key contributors. We’re going to go wash out our eyeballs now.

Michael Stevens of Vsauce fame speaks to an audience for TEDEducation, yet again teaching us something we never knew we needed to know – and providing a little insight into the popularity of his YouTube channel.
