6 Questions You've Never Asked (But Want the Answers To) | Why?

WHY do we blow to cool something down but breathe to warm it up?
WHY shouldn't you put your hands in wet cement?
WHY do we get goosebumps?
WHY is yawning contagious?
WHY do birds suddenly appear every time you are near?
WHY do we have leap years?
WHY is it called Bluetooth?

I love how this channel is sometimes very professional and serious and other times the videos are straight up trolling accounts of events that have me laughing my ass off

[Javaritto]

Another fun fact related to the Bluetooth name origin. Harald's tooth may not have been what we'd call blue today, but rather black. However, the Norse language did not distinguish between blue and black, so his nickname was ambiguous and translated as "blue tooth" in English.

An interesting side fact is that human languages almost always develop terms for colors in a specific order. They start with "light" (white) and "dark" (black), followed by red, then green and yellow, and finally brown and blue. So it wasn't that unusual that Norse lacked a distinct term for the color blue.

All that aside, I find it funny that Bluetooth enabled electric toothbrushes are a thing now. Surely someone in at Philips or Braun must have seen the irony in that?

I just want to say, I don’t use YouTube as much anymore, I have less time and am more busy frequently… as life goes. But Qxir videos always feel worth my time and are actually interesting. Thanks for making phenomenal content!

These 3D animations are such a wildly drastic change in style I was confused for a hot minute, but they're pretty cool! I'd love to see more of this! (along with your regular doodle style animatics, of course)

[gk]

I’m a bit sad, no doodles today. Still a great Qxir video is always a good thing.

[whitenoise]

Love it when content creators try new things! It can be a scary leap, I’m sure, but if you’ve got a good idea, go for it! This series is looking like a lot of fun

[dogemanbacon]

This was great! My conscious mind didn't even know it had these questions, but my subconscious drew a sigh of long-awaited relief!

[lxik]

Cool new series, Qxir, this is a promising start! Also, about leap years, a year is not 365.25 days, it's actually approximately 365.242. But the Gregorian calendar accounts for that! Every 100 years, that year's leap day doesn't occur, unless it's also 400 years since the last time this has happened!

[TheOneTrueCanda]

Is this a new series? Looks pretty cool and unique. Good job!

[Greg-TC]

Sweet new series dude! I’m personally more into your normal animation style but either way great video. I’m looking forward to more

[HeisenbergFam]

Qxir is multidimensional philosopher asking questions mankind desperately needs answers for

[shinsenshogun]

Qxir is an animator that all sorts of animation media must acknowledge to!

[MonzaniaStrike]

I am now questioning my morals as i do not communally yawn. Thanks Qxir

[emoharalampiev]

Also leap years don't occur if the year ends on 00, but then does occur if it's divisible by 400. So 2100 won't be leap, but 2000 was a leap year. (since it's not exactly 365.25 days
)

[Stoove.]

Could I progressively overload my goosebumps? Would repeatedly getting warm and cold eventually get my skin swole? I’m joking, but what if?

[realamericanman]

Qxir has to be one of the most interesting and creative creators on this platform

[Flaccidtetris]

My dad got a small cement burn from a hole in his glove while working in construction almost 20 years ago, the pain still comes back every once in a while

Love the new art style btw :)

[machinat]

I love this new direction, been a fan for YEARS and this new series just looks like another great reason to stay tuned to your channel!

[coolusernametotally]

a new qxir series with 3d animation? i think that’s the best thing to release this week for me.

[Jay]

Cant lie, I much prefer your other media Qxir. Love your drawings but it’s always good to see something new and experimental. This was great.
