I have a question I can't seem to find the answer to. Antibacterial products are always advertising that they kill 99.99% of germs. Does that mean they will kill 99% of the germs on a given surface while leaving a few, or does it mean if you were to list every different germ, the product is only able to kill 99% of those?

I've been wondering about this since I was a literal toddler. Three year old me really loved a particular Joghurt with popping candy in it.

weird because I always felt the carbon dioxide was an ingredient itself

[FrostyJ]

Just subbed to you guys like a week ago and your sub count has shot up since then, guess the YT algorithm picked up your videos and you are getting the recognition you deserve. Congrats.

Excuse me while I mix my pop rocks with soda. I promise to not use it for any pranks...can't promise that pink guy won't do the same though...

[micahphilson]

[Kieshaleigh]

How do you pump out so many videos? Do you have a team working on research? Or do you do this full time? I am a huge fan of your channel and I subscribed immediately. I love your content and would like to know the basic steps in making your videos.
