I love compilations because seeing curly hair Hank and then immediately switching to baby Hank is the funniest thing to me. I love seeing how much has changed

[SquirefromtheShire]

I was not prepared for that jump from present Hank to past Hank. It was like the opposite of the end of Saving Private Ryan

[lesleyghostdragon]

The only thing missing from this "The Biggest Things Ever" compilation video is my adoration for the entire SciShow team. Enormous love and appreciation for your works 👏💓👏

[collinguo]

36:40 can't believe hank green gave us his stripper name and nobody noticed

[coreyms]

For those wondering… No, they didn’t include “Your Mom”.

[bekkaanneee]

i adore long scishow compilations. i watch them to fall asleep every night. the comp of the evolution of life miniseries is my go to, since before this ep, it was one of your longest. so glad to have another one for the rotation! ❤

36:38 I feel like I'm going to need to know that name to answer a trivia question...🤔😂
Love you, Hank Green 💖

[Shaden]

Sadly the cave is now closed it's reflected and you can't access it at all anymore. the reason why they reloaded is to make sure that the crystals will continue to grow naturally.

[adriantcullysover]

Dear Tharsis Bulge. Thank you so much for making this cumpil- compilation. We love and appreciate you.

[ravioliis_]

i'm gonna need a "The Smallest Things Ever" compilation that speeds up every relevant video to be a total of one second long

[otakranio]

I mean, average is more than enough, but whatever

[That-JC]

36:40 And here I was, going about my office work (I'm a designer), with this video playing on my second screen... and Hank goes *"Which is coincidentally my stripper name"* ... it catches me off-guard, and I end up laughing so loud that the company next to us probably heard me... Thanks for the laugh. I don't _think_ I'm in trouble.

[Lexthetician]

“Which is, coincidentally, my stripper name” 😂😂

[chelseawhite]

Ok but I do love the fact that the scientific term for anything is “ooze”

[An_Iron_God]

Whoever made that thumbnail, wow good job getting me feeling wierd over a blimp

[joshyoung]

4:36 lignin? More like... lignin dis wood, amirite? No? No, I'm very wrong? Well, time to make like a banana and split!

[krealyesitisbeta]

The thumbnail made the *rounds* for a different reason than being big~ 😏

[thekambIer]

Hilariously, I am terrified of big things. Downright massively phobic to the point that even the thumbnail of this video made me feel uncontrollable tears at the back of my eyes. I think it’s funny and a stupid fear to have, but I just find this being recommended to me really funny

[Leonilian]

I will say as a small correction at 15:36, that 15M CPU hours would not take 1700 years on a "normal PC". That would assume that the "normal PC" has a single CPU core running the whole thing, which is simply highly unlikely nowadays, and even back in 2013. A low budget system will typically have 2 or more CPU cores to work with, with a more competent system having 8, 16, or even more depending on it's use case. Server CPUs also typically run at lower clock speeds compared to consumer CPUs, but they make up for it in sheer number of cores. For instance, my computer could theoretically do the job in around 107 years, just enough time to go get lunch! (This doesn't include anything like GPUs or custom hardware accelerators that may have been used, but just the CPU hours themselves)
