During the 6th section, Your Larynx Drops from Your Head into Your Throat, we mention that the high larynx position lets babies breathe while drinking, but this is a common misconception. Scientists put this to the test in the 1950s by giving babies barium-spiked milk and x-raying them as they drank. In those experiments, and more research done since then, they’ve consistently found that babies stop breathing when they swallow because the epiglottis seals off the larynx and the soft palate closes off the nasal cavity, like in adults. This misconception may be so popular because babies are actually really good at coordinating their feeding and breathing. And if they’re born full term, they can rhythmically suck, swallow, and then breathe. So, in a way, they can breathe and drink-they just can’t breathe and swallow at the exact same time.

I'm a huge advocate of teaching babies simplified sign language. I work with a 17 month old and before he was walking he had already learned simple words like "food" and "more" and even "where/where is it" Tongues are really hard to manipulate and babies are able to understand concepts a lot earlier than they are able to verbalise. A signed language helps babies communicate their needs earlier and also helps with later language acquisition.

My step mother taught simplified sign language when my sister was little and It worked great. They were able to communicate easier and she started to speak verballly at a young age with a great succces. It reduced the number of frustration which children and their mothers have when not understanding each other. I will do this with my children as well.

I am constantly reminded by my baby that if I were in his situation as an adult, I would be constantly freaking out. Waking up in a strange place? New noises and experiences every day with no context to understand them. Discomfort that I can't explain or fix on my own... All I'm saying is babies are extremely chill considering the craziness that is life.

I always find people talking about the genesis of language in children really interesting. I was a “feral kid” (not of the raised by wolves type, but of the extreme neglect/treated like an animal/raised with the family animals/as one of them type), and it took 6-8 years of speech therapy to teach me to talk fluently when that situation stopped. So I still kind of remember learning to talk (something a lot of people seem not to?) because it was later in my childhood than most and such a Weird Experience.

I have complex PTSD, and I've heard of theories that childhood onset of PTSD actually rewires the brain due to its plasticity at that age. It sounds like that's the connection.

As long as you don't breath in too much, you should be fine after a while 4. the lungs can't. In most cases, the only way to deal with pulmonary edema is to undergo medical treatment. However, in extreme cases, the patients' lungs overfill and they die.

For small particles, like those coming from smoke, there are immunitary cells in our lungs called alveolar macrophages who "eat" these particles and get rid of them with enzymes or acids. But when there are too many foreign particles they can't handle them and die, setting them free in our lungs. That's the reason why smoker's lungs become dark after years of tobacco consumption, the macrophages can't deal with all the particles of the smoke, which include coal, heavy metals and dangerous chemicals. Luckily if the person stops smoking these cells can begin to clean up the lungs. After normally a few years the lungs will recover almost completely.

That melanin thing happened to one of my brothers. When he was born he had goldilocks which was really weird and I guess somebody thought it was a product of an affair but nope, years later his hair became black and straight... which is weird. And as for me, it was kinda the opposite thing. My hair started black but it didn't turn into golden hair, instead my hair was straight, really straight and in recent years, about age 17 or so (I'm currently 22) my hair started to curl. Now I have glorious curly hair and I love it!

"That fun friend we call puberty". It's so much fun; it's my best friend.

Body temperature control in young children is often compared to whales ability to stay underwater for long periods of time. It is often referred to as "mammalian dive syndrome". Cold water flowing over a child's face triggers a systematic response slowing and altering metabolic activities in the body. This effect on the Childs body is so profound that children can be resuscitated after hours underwater. This is most effective if the water is cold. Could you do a show on fetal development in humans. I was born with a "timing defect, where my body did not fully transit from early female fetus that we are all born with, to a male. One of my testis remain as a ovary, rather than the testis it should have developed as. Yes I'm intersex, at least to the extent I have just one of the 40-50 intersex conditions that are known about. How do I know I had an ovary. It became malignant with stage three cancer, that's how.

Never in my life will I ever allow an American to touch my body or a relatives of mine for medical care. Wow, totally terrifying the pattern of educational substandard efficacy I see. Absolutely appaling.

The first one happened to me, I used to have big blue eyes, but at the age of 8 or 9 they became green (my hair became darker, too. it's now very dark brown instead of just brown)

Not all linguists buy the innate grammar thing. There's perfectly good evidence that children are just capable of analyzing stimuli and working out how language works through trial and error. I mean, that's what they would need to do even if they did have an innate grammar because all languages have different grammars. The similarities between human languages can be explained by them all being very very distantly related to each other. In fact if children did have an innate grammar you would assume there would be more similarities between languages.

fun fact! cats also do the entire eye color change (born with blue eyes, change later) thing. around rthe first... 2 or so weeks after opening their eyes, kittens eye colors will normally change to a different color, unless they have white on their body (as cats need white on them to have blue eyes, normally over 30% white i think, however people are working on a breed of cat that can have blue eyes with little to no white!)

My eyes didn’t really settle until I was 15-16. Something that happened with a lot of people in my family with hazel eyes.

you're missing the weirdest thing: oedipus complex.

I'm so early that the twin towers are still standing tall. took so long typing that out, they've gone down now.

My hair colour changed twice. I was born with dark brown, almost black, hair but it quickly lightened to blonde. It gradually darkened back to brown though around my early teens and that's what I'm stuck with now. Eyes stayed brown throughout though.

thanks for the final inspiring quote!

The title actually describes the content of the video pretty well. It is true that, like Buzzfeed articles, the video itself is a list of weird things. But I don't think that's a reason to dislike the video.

this was really interesting there is a lot more ideas you can begin to explore from here

I think this is the first time I've noticed someone other than Sr. Foxley being President of Space since he took office.

That was a great point made by the president of space! I know it’s a famous quote, but it was helpful to hear it.

Congratulations, Hank!

I am one of those people whose eye color changed ar puberty; up until 13 yo I had dark brown eyes since then the color changed to very light hazel with green outer ring. My hair color got lighter too but my eyebrows kept their dark color. My dad has green eyes and is rather blond and mom has dark brown eyes. Talk about epigenetics and how hormones switch genes on and off. It's marvelous how the body works, don't you think?

This was posted on my birthday! Developmental psychology is one of my favourite subjects ^_^

Item #2. I wonder if that's what causes the isolated kids to never gain the ability to speak, or it's very basic. If their brain never used those neurons, it makes sense that they would've been broken off and dissolved. This could mean that there may never be a way to repair the damage that was done to those children. It makes the crime of their parents even more horrific. Luckily it doesn't happen (isn't reported?) very often.

...that picture of the kid shivering at 5:17

My mum, my daughter and I rarely shiver when we are cold. We get an 'electrical' feeling go down through our body from our heads to just past our hips. Just after that we give one big shudder and that's all.

Generally speaking, I'm amazed at how much knowledge kids can hold, and I how eagerly curious their minds are. Child prodigies are a brilliant unique bunch. Their minds and gifts are highly advance, yet at the same time, they are just regular kids. Fascinating.

I see a lot of channels do list videos that are half the length of the list but this is the best way. Make the whole thing 2 minutes longer than the list.

Was waiting for ya to talk about the knees

Everyone: Yay! Hank is back.

“Your giant baby head” is a hilarious phrase lol

I love me some linguistics. I learned those things in point 7 in one of my linguists classes. It's so interesting. Also, I liked that reminder at the end.

Damn, this was a pretty mindblowing episode

My mom's eyes were brown until she hit puberty and then they turned hazel, my eyes are finishing up changing to hazel from brown
