    0:43 "...Assuming you sleep at night" See, that's where the problem starts
  • @MetaTomato
    When Michael said his tea is quite hot, I immediately wondered if it's the hottest thing in the universe, so I'm glad he clarifies that it's not
  • @gabe_1971
    Michael has some of the most rewatchable videos on Youtube
  • @giriumground
    The fact that this vid is 10 years old yet is in a format that can be produced in modern day and still be considered high quality is just...insane. Also proves that Vsauce is very good
  • @dangitspang4667
    Hey Michael, can you turn up the thermostat? Michael: What is... t e m p e r a t u r e ? ? ?
  • @levim8948
    This is my dad explaining why I shouldn’t touch the thermostat
  • This video is 11 Years old, but it feels like it’s made today😕
  • @user-kn5um7cs7d
    “Sup girl you looking like a kugelblitz” - Vsauce getting rejected for some reason.
  • @ColtonPoorman
    Imagine your planet dies because a star 360 noscoped it from 8000 light years away
  • @YeastCartography
    I watched this video with my grandfather this day five years ago, the year he died. We binge watched like half of the VSauce uploads that day, probably the best 4th of my life.
  • @jamesmartin5762
    "if you sleep at night..." dude I'm here because I don't sleep at night
  • @MrHeliMan
    Did you know: An average shower knob takes a turn of approximately 3 nanometers to heat up your water from 10°C to the Planck Temperature.
  • @ZoveRen
    Неожиданная и приятая концовка! (Правда с субтитрами проблема)
  • @vyomsehgal324
    Michael: If you want to be cool, 3 Giga Kelvin Me: How the heck is that cool (It’s super hot isn’t it)
  • @whatskraken3886
    "and my tea is quite hot, but not the hottest thing in the universe" surprising.
  • @ItsBurbank
    Everybody know the hottest thing in the universe is those playground slides in the summertime
  • Wow coming back to these space videos years later feels so good. Vsauce truly inspired a generation. And i feel myself getting back to my childhood curiosity of the world and universe around me. I think we all should stay curious. Keeps you grounded.
  • @mikubrot
    i love how i barely understood this shit years ago, and now i have a stronger understanding of basic science it becomes even more fascinating and interesting to me, because i actually can comprehend it to some extent
