- Yes, I messed up a video title caption
- No, thermal turbines DO spin thousands of times per minute. Wind turbines don't, but I wasn't talking about wind turbines in that sentence!
- I might have butchered the toaster explanation again but honestly at this point just go look at Alec's video, it's better

Don't know if you'll see this Tom, but it's Max from the British Library here. Your video about us resulted an absolute tidal wave of new submissions to our web archive, SMASHING previous records. The good you did for the UK's web archiving vastly outweighs a tiny mistake, which was my fault too for not picking up on it when we filmed! Best of luck with whatever you're up to 🙌

The fact this video is only 12 minutes long means you've made a hell of a lot less mistakes than me.

[AlbusTogglebog]

When Tom can fit every mistake he made over 10 years in a short 12-minute video, you know he's an extremely powerful entity.

[alex]

Tom's humility is an example for us all. What a brilliant human being

[bastystruth]

I’ve spent nearly 9 years since the toaster video was made thinking about the bimetallic strips in my toaster doing their thing each time it pops. Gutted.

[CubicCreeper]

This man has only made 12 minutes worth of mistakes across almost 10 years. Incredible

[aidanwansbrough]

I love the attention to detail in these videos - placing the ad break immediately after the "time for a break" quote is just brilliant.

[talongreenlee]

I love that you still put a YouTube ad right when he says “time for a break” like you did in the original video. That got a good laugh out of me.

[josephreavey]

Putting the ads in right as Jeremy says "Time for a break" is the most Tom Scott thing ever

[stuff]

Tom is one of the most honest, down-to-earth YouTubers out there man. Not everyone puts in the effort to correct their mistakes in research and set the record straight. Thanks, Tom!

[Forest]

Your humbleness and integrity is going to be sorely missed when this series ends.

[potterlover]

"You should never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by stupidity" - this is probably one of the best lines I've ever heard!

[jackeea_]

Like a bloopers video, except actually reflecting on what went wrong and why? Love it!

[TheKicklukassen]

I love the way Tom serves the internet by doing what it was created for, exchanging information. Tom has always collected as much information (and fact checked it)as he could just for us to devour in a weekly video. And to come clean after ten years to correct yourself with a final factcheck just shows how seriously he takes this. Tom, thankyou for 10 years of entertainment!!!

[WillOfSCIENCE]

There actually is a mistake in this video: at 8:31 the on-screen graphics attribute the error to the previous video rather than to "Britain once forgot how long an inch is". Especially ironically, this is immediately after you say that errors in on-screen graphics don't count, during the clip which has an error in its onscreen graphics.

[KrisDouglas]

Tom, you're nothing short of an international treasure. Your integrity, professionalism, and honesty vastly outweighs the comically small list of errors included in your series.

The Internet will be a dumber place without your regular scheduled videos, but you have more than earned the right to rest.

[thecrystalballvideos]

This video was filmed in Warsaw near the Poniatowski bridge, meaning either this was filmed when tom was filming the clams video, or this is where the next video will take place

[domramsey]

Wow, I wish I could fit every mistake I've made into a 12 minute video!

[OmniGundam]

The fact that the civ ghandi bug never happened and yet it's such a big part of the civilization franchise's history blows my mind.
