    Ah yes, the Toyota Corolla. The most universally accepted measurement system.
  • @forstaken2254
    Scientists: How we will call this black hole? Smashes head on keyboard
  • @nolsee1176
    I was having a hard time comprehending the sheer scale, until the traditional Toyota measurement cleared it right up for me.
  • @noeLnose
    "not even light" - every black hole documentary ever.
  • @yaniv010
    USA: Impérial Units The rest of the universe: Metric System RealLifeLore: Toyota Corollas
  • "So how much money did you earn from your video?" RealLifeLore: About the worth of 3 and a half Toyota Corollas
  • "not even light" but what about love? I've yet to watch a black hole documentary say that not even love can escape a black hole.

    "It has the mass of 40 billion suns. To understand that, take the mass of the sun. Now multiply that by 40 billion." Very helpful ^_^
  • @tee4222
    “About 5% the distance between Venus and the Earth” Yeah, that sure makes it easy to visualize...
  • @cammy4079
    So basically we can just say there’s some aliens out there playing agario
  • @pocketmarcy6990
    My Physics teacher just used this in class, I never thought I’d see a real life lore video being used in School
  • @obscurity6558
    Black Holes are the most terrifying thing imaginable. It also sounds like the worst flavor for donuts
  • @magpet.
    So Ant-Man can turn into a black hole that easily?
  • @dr.z1657
    Make myself 1 x 10^21 smaller than a grain of sand? CHALLENGE ACCEPTED
  • Everyone in the world: uses meters Americans: “TOYOTA COROLLAS”
  • @SG-lv1ww
    Imagine destroying the world by stepping on an ant
  • @carson.4612
    I’m sorry but the “Destroyer of Worlds” isn’t even the biggest black hole anymore. Now it’s TON 618, which has 66 billion suns. Now THIS is a U N I T.
  • @Wrenosaur_
    Scientists: "Black holes are complicated" Me: "agario"
