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 :)

Imagine being found after 438 days just to get sued

[alexhirst]

The best bit was “the man started to lose hope after four months abandoned”” jeeez I would’ve lost it after five days smh

[EightDazed]

Imagine living on the most remote island in the world.. Hearing no planes or boats.. *knock knock knock* at the door

[zacharyjones]

If I ever go missing with a friend and he turns up a year later and I'm dead, please honor my memory and celebrate with him and his family and don't sue him... Even if he did eat me, at least I helped the homie out.

[delighted]

Imagine suing a man on a baseless, and unproveable argument of him having supposedly 'executed' his coworker and eaten him. And then ALSO demanding a fifty-percent share of the profits of the book published by the survivor, on the basis of compensation for him dying, which wasn't the suvivor's fault.
I didn't know having a 1 digit IQ was possible, but the family of his coworker proved me wrong.

"How 1 man survived 438 days lost at sea"

*story starts with two guys*

This can't be good for one of them.

[CameronPhillips]

The fact that he got sued after that is like the biggest slap in the face lol

[battlq]

It’s insane to think that while we were all going about our lives normally, there was someone that was stuck in the ocean for more than a year

[vqoo]

they really tried sueing for 1 mil and this guy was in the middle of the ocean for 438 days. tells alot bout our world

[IMOMENTOI]

Imagine him getting finally home after 438 days and asking his wife whats for lunch and she answers ‘fish’ lol.

[voidx]

I'm just imagining him maniacally waving and screaming as that one boat just passes him by and leaves him there. I can't.

[temcade]

imagine if the human that he found at the house said im finally saved!

[MoneyTrees]

*Day after rescue*

Boss: You still coming in today?

[ericchandler]

How a 30 hour shift turned into a 10, 512 hour shift.

[thejesuschrist]

That is a lot more impressive than 40 days in the desert. Damn!

[melo]

Every single human being celebrated their birthday while this man was stuck alone on a boat

[JustinY.]

As the days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months, eventually, he stopped thinking.

[baseddroid]

So 4 guys see a random small fishing boat in the isolated central pacific and think, good day sir

[vesselfpv]

Worker on cargo ship: hey that guy looks lost
Worker 2: naw hes just fishing
Worker 1: but we're in one of the most isolated locations on the planet
Worker 2: he'll be fine

[espacfc]

During the entirety of 2013, this man was somewhere in the ocean, just drifting. Think of anything that happened then, at the same time, he was out facing this.
