Videos explaining things. Mostly over topics like history, geography, economics and science.

We believe that the world is a wonderfully fascinating place, and you can find wonder anywhere you look. That is what our videos attempt to convey.

Currently, I try my best to release one video every week. Bear with me :)

The construction workers should learn how to work in winter and in dark. thankfully Skillshare has a course for it.

Alcohol in Alaska will never be the same if this happens

[patbrennan]

a bridge that starts from nowhere and goes nowhere.. sounds like a government project to me.

[weeznaw]

As a truck driver the idea of driving to Russia from Alaska sounds fun

[BrittanyCole]

My brother drove from Pensacola, FL to the Arctic Circle in Alaska and back in about 4 weeks. For fun. So I wouldn't say "no one" would drive from NY to Alaska lol.

I was stationed in Fairbanks Alaska in the early 90's with a guy from Miami. He got out of the Army, went home to Miami, loaded his Isuzu Trooper with car stereo equipment, drove back to Fairbanks and opened a car stereo installation shop.

"9000 miles of wear and tear on your car. Nobody does that."

RV owners: Am I a joke to you?

[razqanrazak]

Can’t wait to use my Toyota Corolla on that bridge!

Driving from Miami to Cape Town may sound insane to the average person but to adventurers, it’s pure heaven!!!!

[justmemes]

If they did build a bridge mr beast would drive from Argentina to South Africa

[janNowa]

People: We can't build the bridge, it's too expensive and time consuming
*Oil has entered the chat*

Airplanes now: _reads title_

(laughs in jet fuel)

I like how it completely skirts the diplomatic challenges. It just about takes an existential threat for both of the involved countries to consider a group project of any magnitude.

[ItsTheMunz]

Considering the very valid points you’ve made against building a bridge, I’m baffled the government hasn’t built it twice already.

[delbomb]

"nobody does that" meanwhile as a truck driver i drive 3000 to 4000 miles each and every week

Mr Beast:*DRIVING FROM NEW YORK TO CAPETOWN IN 24 HOURS

I've always been fascinated with this bridge ever since I read it in a story one time, it took place in the far future and ai was driving cars but I still love the idea that a long bridge would connect Alaska and Russia just because it would simply be cool.
