4 FACTS.

Come here. Come here. My webcam doesn't even work. You know what these are? What are they? Nuts. You don't know what these are? Hazelnuts? These are hazelnuts. No! That's not what it is. They're kinda weird. What are these one? Those are cashews. I hate cashew nuts. I hate hazelnuts. Do you like chocolate-covered honey comb? No. Yes, actually. Oh, you do? Take some of these. Alright.

Speaking of mixed nuts, today we've got a whole mix of a bunch of weird stuff. It's not a typical episode. We're just full of facts and bunch of people I met over here in London. So, enjoy. I learned something. Your eyeballs grow when you're a kid. Sh*t. Yeah. But once you turn 13 years old your eyeballs - they stop growing. But you know what? Your ears keep growing forever. Did you know that? Did you drink for breakfast again? No, no, no, no.

But apparently, like every adult's eyeballs are like the exact same size within a couple millimeters. Yeah. So your eyes are the same size as mine, it's just your face is different. Like shows them off better. My face is better than your face. Well, that we already established. But I'm trying to talk about the anatomy of the eye. Thanks for ruining my self-esteem instead. Anytime.

Okay, here's a fact that'll make you feel happy. Did you know that in a deck of cards there are so many ways to arrange those cards that when you shuffle a deck, the order of those cards has never ever existed on Earth in history? Yeah. So whenever you feel sad, shuffle a deck. Set aside and say "first." Three hundred and fifty.

The idea was not really great in this weight-lifting room, but I need to be here because I ate a bunch of liquid nitrogen ice cream a couple days ago. It's this place where they take liquid cream and sugar and all the ingredients and rather than spend a bunch of time waiting for it to cool down, they fill up a big ol' jug with liquid nitrogen that freezes the cream in a matter of seconds into delicious ice cream.

They even serve the toppings out of beakers and test tubes, and it was delicious. After eating the ice cream we stumbled upon an electric harp player and she told me after the show that even though the harp's electric, the strings are still made the traditional way - out of the intestines of animals. Of course, you have to admit that the only thing more delicious than liquid nitrogen ice cream or animal intestines is a cake in the face by iJustine.

I leave you with British Pathé. These guys have been filming human activities since we could film human activities and they're putting all that content out on YouTube for free right now. They've got early Arnold, they've got chickens being hatched in a frying pan and an old taxidermy museum and, of course, dogs getting married. Would you subscribe to British Pathé?

[Hazel:] I think so.

[Michael:] Yeah. Of course. As should all of you. Subscribe to Vsauce if you haven't.

[Hazel:] Oh my god, you're checking me again! And as always, thanks for watching.
