Watching this video made work pass faster.
Michael is truly such a talented creator. I absolutely adore his way of explaining things. Michael, do u wanna go on a date?
“When something becomes part of the past, can it truly be experienced again??” I heard as I experienced the same chilly-fresh-watery feeling that I used to get when I clicked on his videos in the evenings of my begone teen years...
This video was short... it will feel longer afterwards. Very interesting!
To any and all people watching this in 2030, 2040, 2050 and so on, upon this video platform or the next, we are perfectly content without your technologies or entertainment of your era. It would be really nice to experience them, and we will, but we have all we currently need for satisfaction. A couple things to state: We have yet to land on Mars, America has not yet had a female president, COVID-19 is still a worldwide issue and Queen Elizabeth is somehow still alive. There could be a massive global war or a massive medical breakthrough in just a few years and we are all completely unaware due to time, as are you with your future. Live your life like we all should as I’m writing this: appreciation for the current moment. Because this current moment is fleeting and yours will be too
I thought the world was black and white before 70s when I was a kid. Ahhh my funny little old mind!!!
When you were kids, who thought the world was black and white before 70s ?
Brain explosion!
This 30 minute video feels 2 hours long beacuse I learn so many new things
Anyone watching this, again, in 2044?
Who's watching in 2023?
Every time I watch v-sauce I swear my iq rises and makes me able to view things from a different perspective
But I am the main character of the universe... Believe me... Strangers!
Those twitter posts about "oh mah god I'm old" lol. Y'all just old
Its against USfilm recommendations laws This should be recommend after 12 years
Shouldn't you he off kidnapping chipmunks or something?
This video did certainly not fel like 30 minutes. ;D
8:13 lol wait till he hears that Dr Stone counted time for 3000 years
relevance of time
A sweater without a shirt underneath just looks wrong
Just remembered that the t-series vs pewdiepie war was 3 years ago.
Stop harassing my brain like this, it gets anxious and doesn't like it but still finds it fascinating.
and what is it called when i start listening to a 5min. song in 16:20 and at the end of the song it's 16:30 ?
Im glad you’re back.
Holy shit the beard!
The king returns! Praise be 🙏
Therapist: Beardless Michael doesn't exist, he cant hurt you *Beardless Michael:*
My boi said "you're as old as your parents when they had you" and I don't know what to do with my life...
I learned more from this video than a whole year of school
very interesting &informative. given very nicely
‘It was worth the wait’
wow that was 31 mins that was so fast! oh wait
What's doom scrolling
It is the first time that he says "I think" in any of his videos and then inserts his own terminology. This sounds like a doctorship made on USfilm
I tell you way the time past faster wen we are older. Because then we do not learn so many things. So if you what (relatively) to feel that time pass slow, you have to learn new things every time.
ALL HAIL KING MICHAEL.
Damn this sure really took a lot of TIME better drop a like
If you like Vsauce you’ll like the SCP Foundation now go read the wiki
It's 2021 but I'm still living in 90's ....... 🙂
Wait But Why readers! Like here
Time is an illusion and feelings are relative ...
Every VSauce video feels like a Magnum Opus.
dude sometimes you don't wanna know why we feel nostalgia coz that'll ruin our feeling of nostalgia how you can think that the good old days were not good old days but some psychological shit.
those last two minutes are solid gold. "Be bored." My greatest inspirations and inventions have come from boredom.
Yes, precious, tasty brain stuffs! About time, tho.
I gotta go spray a diarrheal In the planetary earth continuum that is my bowl
How often can a man change his sweater 🤣😁👌🏻
He is 34? I thought he was like 50
Maralyn monroe was born in a completely different year to queen elizabeth 2!!! Maralyn monroe was nowhere near the Jurassic era!!
Last year, I was in my local town and a kid at a record shop said to the guy behind the counter, "Do you have any oldies in, like Radiohead's Kid A?" I figuratively turned into a pile of ash at my own recognition of my pending mortality
Bless this man
this makes me wanna cry
14:00 midlife crisis?
Make a video about why we will not take talking with AI engines as serious and meaningful as talking with humans, even talking with aliens, if ever exist, would be much more serious and meaningful.
For the first few seconds, I honestly thought it was a floating head lol.
Do anybody noticed how much apparels he changed with time
6 days ago?...... does anybody else remember already watching this years ago ?... maybe he has a similar video o
Vsauce is the definition of yes, but no
Idea porn that really means nothing. Keep pushing forward towards your dreams, your goals..enjoy the now.
way too deep
I would say its been like two years but I think thats the point of the video
The king is back!!
anyone watching this in 2022?
Green duck: TIME?
How many TIMES did he change his sweater?
The difficulty of accepting the flow of time is becoming unbearable as we grow older.
The draconian withdrawal successively arrive because brian philly precede athwart a frantic bucket. accurate, filthy giraffe
say my name！ heisenberg
THAAAATS why it took you so long to upload.
When my mom was 16 she got me, when I was 17 she got my younger brother, there's a larger space of time between me and my brother then me and my mother and that feels kinda weird
This is real deep one. Great vdo, as always.
'27:20 imagine not even conceptualizing the existance of any other civilization outside of earth. I guess the 2000s were really a prison age' That comment above is what I like to imagine every so often. From a possible perspective of someone far into the future who might possibly live a thousand years away, for whom a daily mundane reality includes something sci-fi, unthinkable now. Like a boring business meeting with a few more extra terrestrial races for example. The interesting part is, that such comment would be totaly relatable to someone, if my sci-fi imagination would happen. Someone so far away on a time, technology and a knowledge scale, yet having the same thought. A mind bridge between ages.
this is wicked
How the hell has it been 140 days since you did the shave thing
I can't wait until Vsauce come out with the video, "I discovered Nuclear Fission Energy and made some insane stuff"
10:37
looks untidy. seconds later. YAY =) than... awww....
basicly michael showing us that he's old
Absolutely loved this video, probably one of the best in my opinion!
1.Forget what you studied last week 2.Remember that one embarrassing moment from 15 years ago
This is trippy
the whole video felt shorter than the last 2 minutes, in which I was waiting for the video to end so I could get some noodles
Time itself is an illusion
Can I rent your beard for 2 weeks bro lol. instagram.com/zaotech/
Who else thought this was real as a kid
Vsauce: Shaved Me: Press Like Button
Been too long...you da best!
After 9 minutes my brain melted
Making your own terms and hypotheses now, amazing 🙌🏼
Where can I buy that brown sweater michael is wearing.
wow, is anyone watching it in 2030?
I was born in 2009 and I remember Jurassic Park coming out??? huh?? H U H
It's been a long time since you came around Been a long time but you're back in town but this time, i feel like this video is too long... not like the old days huh...?
VERY great timing for this video. A lot of us are experiencing these same phenomenon due to covid and quarantining. This video reminded me how much I love watching these types of videos.
Im not ready for an existential crisis on a weekend
31 minutes of epicness
anybody watching this in 2024?
I never thought there would be another one
16:30 me when I google "ab ovo" and figure out it's actually a type of ovarian cancer
you know that movie interstellar? you got to watch it twice to REALLY understand it... this video is like that. you need to watch this twice.
