threelonmusketeers OP , to xkcd in What if you drained the oceans?

That idea was actually explored in Drain the Oceans: Part II, on the xkcd website. I hope Randall makes a video version of that as well.

Guess what, dogs and cats derive play behaviors from predation too, doesn’t mean that play ain’t play.

Humans also derive play behaviour from foraging and predation. Play is play, and everyone can have fun, no matter the species.

Narrated by and based on “What If” by Randall Monroe

I would never have shared it if it were just some random person freebooting his content.

You do make a good point about the footnotes and mouseover text. I wonder if there would be some way to weave them into the videos. Perhaps inserting them as a single fleeting frames? It’s a shame YouTube got rid of annotations, as the “hidden annotations” seem like they’d be a perfect fit for this.

threelonmusketeers OP , to xkcd in What if you threw a baseball at nearly light speed?

Yeah, I love Randall’s old blog. Super happy that they’re getting remastered in video form with narration by the man himself.

Is this a reference to the tongue twister “I slit the sheet, the sheet I slit, and on the slitted sheet I sit”?

NASA haven’t launched them yet, have they? Last I heard they were sitting in storage.

Space was definitely a thing, it was just closer together than it is now.
