Ahh, so in this case, experts do exist! And, they are helpful.

Great video! The only minor hiccough was at about 4:30, the "in frequently" gets a little blurred and it sounds like "infrequently" which showed up in the captions. Really neat video though

Ben Gold

Damn

The Six-Gun Gorilla

5:02 - "No Sharks Allowed" - Well, isn't that subtle!

Awesome video! Such a random topic - I can only imagine the insane amount of research that went into this. Hope you had fun making it! It turned out great.

Russell Spence

Hey Grey! Small world - I'm the guy who created that Nicolas Cage / drownings correlation graph at 7:39, and I'm also a proud patreon! Thanks for making great content!

So much fun! If Grey could by magic do videos about all the little asides, and the asides that would aside the asides, then I reckon youtube would be 99% Grey. I love that we don't really know how ancient people spoke what they spoke, and that everyone who learns ancient Latin is basically a cosplayer who to Caesar would be speaking word salad. And I love that people just used to spell the words they wrote any old way, so long as they were confident that their/there/theyre audience would be able to discern their/there/theyre meaning - up to and including their/there/theyre own names.

"Yes, Tiffany her name is. I chose her name because it was the least witch-like name I could think of only to find that when you go through some of the sounds associated with that name, it's an incredibly good name for my character. I couldn't possibly have known it when I chose the name. Tiffany is a name that in the UK we tend to associate with big hair and hairdressers and stuff. And yet the sounds in Gaelic means: land under water or land under waves. And in the context of the story it couldn't possibly have been a better name. [Laughs] And it's lovely when that happens. That's what I call a banker moment. When you think you're just rambling along, pulling a story together out of components and you suddenly find that it starts to speak to you." - Terry Prattchet

This video was totally rad!

I almost just unsubscribed with the message "I guess us patreon plebs don't get to watch premiers alongside the youtube Joinees," but didn't for a couple reasons. First, I'm guessing the shitty patreon form wouldn't accept a message that long, and second because it was almost certainly unintentional that the premier link on discord didn't actually start working until the video was half way through.

Truly Terrific!

Wonder if Grey has any close family named Tiffany (guess we will probably never know)
