In this video:
1. Other than the color of the shell, there is no difference between commercial brown shelled chicken eggs and a white shelled ones. Non-commercial eggs from chickens may taste slightly different, due to difference in diet, but a chicken that lays white eggs will produce an egg that is by taste and nutrition the same as the eggs produced by a chicken that lays brown eggs with the same diet. (QF: 585)
2. An average beef cow (200 kg of usable meat) produces enough meat to make about 4,500 hamburgers at McDonalds. (QF: 482)
3. About 3 billion pounds of potatoes are used to make McDonald’s fries every year. This is about 8% of all potatoes grown in the United States or a half a percent of all potatoes grown in the world per year. (QF: 479)
4. Common foods that are naturally radioactive include potatoes, bananas, sunflower seeds, Brazil nuts, and kidney beans, among others. Brazil nuts are the most radioactive by far at 6600 picocuries per kg or about 1.875 BED (banana equivalent dose). The radium in Brazil nuts does not come from especially high levels of radium in the soil where the trees grow, but rather the very extensive root systems the trees develop, which cover a much larger area of the soil than most trees.
5. The most expensive coffee is coffee where the berries go through the digestive tract of the Kopi Luwak (a small cat-sized Indonesian animal). The “beans” are then harvested from the animal’s waste, cleaned, roasted, and sold. This coffee costs $100 to $600 per pound. Just like when you buy food, in the end, you are essentially paying for poop.
6. Archeological evidence suggests that the earliest known purposefully fermented drink, specifically beer, was made all the way back in the late Stone Age around 10,000 BC, also making it one of the earliest known prepared food substance along with bread, which dates back to around the same time. The earliest references to wine being made are found in Egypt around 4000 BC.
7. The now common “Fish and Chips” combo originated in Britain around 1860. For nearly 200 years before that, fish vendors had been serving fried fish on the streets of Britain. Sometime around the mid-19th century, one of them got the bright idea to serve thick cut French fries with the fried fish, with the first known “Fish and Chip” eatery opened by Joseph Malin in 1860. After this, the popular combo rapidly spread throughout Britain and the world.
8. Grapes explode when microwaved. (QF 503)
9. Mao Sugiyama from Japan had his testicles and penis removed when he was 22 and served them to dinner guests at $250 per plate, with a total of 6 plates. (QF 545)
About the Site 🌐
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥
Origins of the Idea 🌱
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠
Challenges Faced 🤔
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍
Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
