  You literally make nat geo quality videos. You do it with almost no budget no huge team and no army of editors. It’s astonishing. You’re sitting on a lot of money and happiness with those skills.

  For these sorts of documentaries, &quot;English accent is an absolute must&quot;.

  G.K. Chesterton suggested that the cave paintings might have been decorations created to delight the children of the tribe who used the cave as a nursery for young children forced to stay indoors through the long, bitter winters. I like that about Chesterton. &nbsp;He had a gift for pointing out the possible similarities between ancient peoples and modern humanity, instead of highlighting their differences.

  To clear up a common misconception about comets at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vntVVcazJD4&amp;t=1055">17:35</a>, comets do not actually leave a &quot;tail&quot; behind them as they travel. In the vacuum of space there is no atmospheric drag. When astronauts conduct a space walk, their ship does not zoom ahead and leave them trailing behind. &nbsp;Solar radiation from a nearby star sublimates (defrosts) the comet&apos;s frozen surface, and those sublimating particles are pushed in the same direction as the solar radiation. So the direction of the tail is entirely independent of the comet&apos;s trajectory.

  I thought I was watching natgeo or something and didn&apos;t realize it was a tiny YouTube channel that deserves FAR MORE subs than what they have!
