    I didn't do the experiments but fun fact, I usually miss the ruler. Like 3/4 times. Dexterity is my dump stat. That said, I suspect it's because I filter visual info SUPER SLOWLY, maybe because my detail vision is hella good. It makes a lot of sense that auditory reaction time and visual reaction time differ so much, and that experience with new stimuli to make them expected improves reaction time too. That fully matches my experience, which I can tell because the reaction times I have are so UNUSUALLY BAD.

    Mosquitoes concentrate the blood they drink as they are digesting it, which is why you might notice a bead of water on their abdomen as they drink blood - that's mosquito pee. Mosquito Girl basically ordered them to have a soup, dehydrate it to be a demiglace, and then give it to her, if she was getting them to indiscriminately drain all fluids.

    reminds me a bit of what the ultrakill rocket launcher does (it reacts with blood to create an explosion on impact with an enemy, but only creates an airblast when it hits a surface) except a full vaporization would look a lot more like a core eject nuke

    Are we sure those mosquitoes were natural ones or were they created by Mosquito Girl? In the latter case they could've be made into something in between a mosquito and a tic. In other words, flying tics? Then they would have no problem draining a person of their blood in a very short amount of time, is my guess, and would in that case be highly likely within the realm of One Punch Man.

    But this implies time works in parallell in both dimensions. Couldn't his be solved by time being "stopped" in our dimension while Nightcrawler jumped? Once he knows where to jump, he does so in what seems an instant through his own dimension. Doesn't explain the time lag of his jumps though.

    Great video ! Please make one about the Ninjas' long distance running techniques and supplies. When you are trying to show detailed leg movement is better to not wear baggy clothing. Also be careful with your background music, better too quiet than too loud.

    Huh, I was thinking Tasmanian Tiger too. Mostly because it was only recently made extinct so it likely would still be able to survive in the wild comfortably and have a decent terrain to live in, and also it is a poster child for extinct species as a lot of people know the species. If it were back, it might further invigorate de-extinction and preservation efforts. That or any recently-extinct rhino as anti-poaching endeavors are getting more traction too.

    Immortality, in a fleshy, unstable, chemical meat sack is less than ideal. Ideally you'd want to transfer your consciousness into a superimposed or 'near dormant' quantum medium. Say ultra low frequencies of light for example, where they lack energy to the point that they border on turning back into matter and antimatter, yet they don't. This allows weaker polar forces to allow these ULF's to interact in a very similar way to how an active human nervous system looks on an electro graph. If you could graph and measure the electrical fluctuations and patterns and the coinciding magnetic waves produced. This electrical pattern and magnetic waves, form a unique electro-magnetic pattern, unique to each individual. Although there are many similarities. If you could visualize that pattern, ULF's interact in very similar ways, forming living beings that are made of ULF's rather than chemicals. These beings would've likely formed shortly after the big bang, amidst the chaos. Due to theoretical concepts like quantum entanglement and well known phenomena like convergent evolution, it's safe to assume these ULF entities could be the progenitors of not the human body, but of it's soul. We are the only animal that has an electromagnetic pattern like theirs. So whose to say your soul, which is conducted using charged ions inside your neurons and nerve cells, in a kinda newtons craddle style way of transfering electrical energy in complex patterns; couldn't be transfered into a ULF medium? Only a ULF entity would know, if they exist and show themselves.

    Isn’t there also a phenomenon where if air is released below the sand, the sand acts like water? Maybe it isn’t a method of propulsion, but it’d certainly help it move more effectively. Mark Rober has a video on it.

    So if you had to modulate a phaser to kill,but not vaporize what kind of power will do that? Power to kill whatever it is but not the ship you are in, no vaporization, no other bad side effects to the user. Take the phaser from Star Trek. Or the Rifle Phaser. They seem to have enough power to be lethal but not explosive. How? It would have to be more effective than a real pistol. Say 5x more powerful than a .44 magnum?
