Moral of the story: "If CGP Grey emails you, you can either answer the email or you can answer the door."

[dafreedomtiger]

imagine visiting a grave of a loved one only to see a disheveled man saying to himself, "i know you're here, you're here somewhere"

[seventyeight]

I will never complain about the wait of CGP Grey videos ever again.

[khodibritton]

“Ignore my emails? I might just show up.” Is such an ominous line and no one’s talking about it.

[ExclVids]

I was half expecting the last scene to end with him sitting on the grave with a oujia board looking for an interview.

[SchutzmarkeGMBH]

The difference between a curious person and a historian is if your research ends on Wikipedia or on a graveyard during a thunderstorm.

[sako]

This story had CGP Grey going Disosway and Thatoway

[darthkarr]

I like how the museums closed for "heat reasons" and then it pisses down with rain.

GREATEST CONSPIRACY EVER

[Hypercube]

"...and here is where our story ends."

Next clip: A shovel is seen digging into the ground... {to be continued}

[sethlarson]

“Where is it, I know your here somewhere.” Is probably the best thing to say while stomping through a graveyard in a storm.

[Flutie]

Wow National Treasure 3 is even better than I could have hoped

[malachipash]

"... I've always found that hometown historians happily honour hometown heroes" slick wording.

[Crazelord]

I'm surprised Grey didn't go as far as building a period accurate sail boat and seeing if he could circle SI in 24 hours

[nebuli]

Some say grey still wasnt satisfied and brought a shovel to the graveyard.

[luketmosley]

This is a better "descent into madness" tale than the Joker. He's literally running around a graveyard in a thunderstorm by the end.

[karlwittenburg]

As a history student myself, I wonder when the time will come for me to finally have a breaking moment where I vow to chase to the ends of the earth the smallest details written at the bottom of a page of footnotes.

I am not looking forward to that day, but I have accepted it will come inevitably

[prathamgupta]

Cgp grey did so much research to find nothing

Respect ➕

[greenredblue]

The layman might think this is a video about a boat race.

The expert can see this is a prolonged explanation for why CGP Grey uploads so rarely.

[forktaileddvil]

This has to be the most anyone has cared about Staten Island in the last century.

[MangersAndBash]

It's kind of beautiful how you chased an ending to your journey that could never be reached, only to find a rainbow, whose end can never truly be reached
