I don't want to prove anything rather I just like learning. At any rate I love learning, hence this channel, and I appreciate proper facts, again hence this channel. Bonus Fact: The way I know whether or not to trust a source is I listen to them speak on a subject that I consider myself fluent in, if they get it right I am likely to trust them in the future when I don't know much about the subject.

If bees were fixed-wing aircraft, there would be problems flying, but since it is not a fixed-winged aircraft, it flies quite nicely by flapping its wings. There are also issues with scale and how things get oddly different on such a small size... like dropping a dead bee off the Empire State Building won't reach same terminal velocity as an elephant.

Those special vortexs they produce ABOVE their wings, sure point towards advance flight... As he said, it isn't like a plane.

You’re so right about people misconstruing something and passing it on to naive students and it perpetuating itself. I had a really pretty good history professor, one of my favorites, who bought into the idea that being 50 was kind of surprising and a feat in the Middle Ages and Enlightenment, due to a very low average lifespan. You know, from a staggering rate of infant mortality and childhood deaths and fatal mishandling of childbirth and its effects on mothers (as well as having doctors not wash before reaching inside to feel the cervix, grab breech babies, etc). If you avoid that, you had a good chance of living into old age. Of course cancer was still a deal, and heart disease, and they were more likely to take people down without surgery and modern treatment. But dang. Talk about having all the right info and just... not realizing you’re applying it incorrectly. The stats don’t lie, you just don’t understand them and are applying your biases! Seeing someone who’s 60 wouldn’t be a once in a lifetime thing, of “Tell me your ways and how to obtain such good health, old and wise one.” It’s not like seeing a 125-year-old today or something. When people who ought to know better perpetuate things like this, it really makes me wonder.

I think part of the idea of the roach's survivability when it comes to nukes isn't just the radiation they can handle but the fact that after it's all over, they can eat almost anything! Other insects are a bit more picky about what they eat and breeding conditions.

Cockroaches are absolutely beautiful creatures!.I have a small cockroach farm, the size is about a one bedroom apartment. My delightful creatures breed under the stove, and the fridge mostly . I sometimes see them take early morning walks on my dinner plates, among the utensils and many other places ! Sometimes they surprise me hiding in the cereal box ! I love the little darlings the most, when I turn on the light in the middle of the night and I see them out in force. They are galloping on the walls, on the ceiling its a glorious sight really . I dont know what I'd do without their unconditional love !

And, just to add to the bonus facts, I would add the surprisingly cute tardigrades (microscopic arthropod-like creatures also called 'water bears') to the highly radioactive-resistant critters mentioned. Lovely to hear about Deinococcus too (yay microbes!)

Most of my YT suggestions: This is the end of Democracy! Trump is destroying the U.S. Johnson will destroy U.K. War with Iran on the horizon! The world is ending! Today I Found Out: How Do Bees Fly? Guess which one I clicked on...😁

"You know what to do down there." Dirty... I like it.

Bees don’t care about physics.

I learned something new today: can't have a real science without lasers. I already knew you can't have a good story without pirates, so if I can just figure out how to combine the two, I might have the perfect science fiction story. Unless that's what Buckaroo Banzai was about...

I prefer to believe that bees know something we don't.

Can you make a video explaining the units of radiation and how the compare? Rems vs Rads vs etc..

That seems to be more of a video for Hank than Simon.

I’ll save you 11 minutes and 27 seconds - they use their wings.

using calculations for flight software I did some quick calculations of what size wing area would be needed to lift a bee, turns out the wings would need to be 7inches long, 14inches tip-to-tip assuming the wing had the same width as a bee and the weight was that of a bee, there is something in that royal honey theory me thinks, lol

"...and while you're down there, you know what you gotta do." If I had a nickle for every time I've heard that.

Just think: A beetle with wings is a Paul McCartney.

"And we can only assume the experiment was more accurate because it involved lasers which are always necessity for an experiment to be considered fully scientific" - As a scientist, I can confirm that when the lasers come out, the science definitely becomes more scientific. I've spent the last year of my life struggling to repeat the non-laser version of an experiment with lasers...

I'm the smartest person in the room when everyone else in the room is drooling all over themselves but just barely the smartest.

That's honestly the prettiest wasp I have ever seen!

I always thought the reason was that no one had been able to convince the bees that the Laws of Physics should not be broken.

The other obvious aspect of cockroaches better surviving a nuclear blast, I would think, is the higher probability of them being covered by some layer of concrete, dirt and/or metal from the point of the blast. Cockroaches are a sneaky bunch, certainly more so than the usual people.

if your the smartest person in the room your in the wrong room Teachers : sweating increases

🐝 I think this video misses the philosophical point that the bee buzzes along happily despite the pedantic minutiae.

How scandalous.

I worked at an ice-cream plant and we had cockroaches in the building. one day I caught one and brought it into the freezer with me where I worked, it was -20 F. After about 15 minutes, the cockroach stopped moving and I left it on a shelf for my 8-hour shift. After work, I brought the cockroach into the locker room so I could get changed. After about two minutes the cockroach wiggled an antenna, shook itself off, and ran away. I was quite impressed with that.

I still like the idea of tiny insects breaking All known laws known laws of physics

My toddler is OBSESSED with "bumblybees". After this video so am I lol.

I love the fact that rather than conclude that humanity's knowledge was incomplete, it was the bees that were breaking the rules. 🤣

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible. *movie ends and credits play*

Apparently they can survive "5,000 Gray" which is 500,000 rads.

I'm in the camp that they levitate hence why they can fly in a completely straight line even with huge cross winds.

Proof a Rolling Stone CAN gather moss.

Rumor mill: "Science can't explain how bees fly." Scientist: "Am I a joke to you?"

They proved that certain sound frequencies can cause objects to float. I think it's a combo of lift generated by flapping and the buzz they make. They stay a float by the sound waves and the wings create movement like fans on a drone would. It's funny that a male bee is called a drone.

apparently they have tiny conic hexagonal structures on their wings, I'm thinking sonic levitation... for how loud bees and flies are there is def resonance involved

They thought the answer They thought the answer was to armor up a bunch of bees to fight Sharknado,... They were wrong! Armored Bee versus Sharknado, Clash of super epic was!

I love reading the captions to see what didnt make it into the video from what I assume was from a written script.

It’s not that cockroaches were immune to radiation, it’s that cockroaches are so adaptable that they could survive in an irradiated wasteland.

Ok...I watch your videos on your various channels pretty much every day. So my husband told me today that he doesn’t want to listen to it EVERY DAY or several TIMES a day. I asked if every OTHER day would be fine. He said yes. I said, well that’s why God made headphones 🎧 😂💜 I’m not going to stop watching!

this reminds me, and you could make a video of it, that a russian man in the 60s made a flying machine from insect wings

The way I heard it was "The only things that would survive a nuclear war are cockroaches and Cher" LOL.

I just realized that bees and mosquitoes flap their wings faster than the speed of sound, mini sonic booms with every stroke!

4:06 "...front to back..." that's very important information.

Friggin' bees with friggin' LASERs.

The Bee 52 started out as a sketch on a napkin. Still flying nearly 70 years later.

"Bees shouldn't be able to fly." Meanwhile I'm watching about a dozen bees doing exactly that as I type this.

But red makes it faster. Fact!

I love that you mentioned Deinococcus radiodurans

I remember a children's book in my school library called "bees cant fly.....but they do." Never read it. I didn't care.
