  1.  @TheChiefEng  I think you are putting words into his mouth there, he was in fact very neutral on the subject as a channel such as this should be.

  2. Good advice, too much of anything is bad for you, we all know how dangerous Dihydrogen Monoxide can be! PS: I googled Dihydrogen Monoxide to check the spelling and yes, a Simon Whistler video was one of the first hits 🤣

  3. 100% and ice cream would be a very welcome surprise indeed. @Hyreia

  4. One could add to the list of those who possibly prevented WW3 the name Captain James Blunt, yes, THAT James Blunt. While the WW3 claim is debatable he certainly saved a lot of lives that day in Kosovo by refusing a really stupid order that would have resulted in direct conflict between Russian and UK troops. A conflict that I and a lot of other non-combatant contractors would have been caught up in (I, an aircrew was sitting on the tarmac in a Red Cross contracted cargo aircraft) so I'm pretty grateful for his actions.

  5. Um, that didn't date the episodes because his hair was always permed so there was no way of telling when in his run that episode was filmed.

  7. No, it was actually yesterday when a Russian shell landing 100 metres off target would have poisoned all of Europe by hitting an active nuclear reactor.

  8.  @williamjones2027  Try living in Australia where a paintball gun meets the definition. Hell, a gel ball gun does in all but a couple of states.

  9. Fortunately for us, it was a correct statement.

  11. Bravo sir, that was more of a factual and unbiased look at the subject than I think I have ever seen to date, thank you.

  12. LOL, I see what you did there.

  13. If they wreck a heap of AN-2s I'm going to be pissed. I'd love an AN-2 of my own, there are a couple of immaculate ones at our local airfield.

  14. The fact that Americans pay tax on a prize or winnings is still amazing to me. You guys pay tax on everything.

  17. Everyone is focusing on the B2 while I'm "Never mind that, HE WORKED ON GALILEO!" Thank you for the science, Galileo was magnificent.

  18. Well, this didn't age well did it?

  19. I have only just been informed of Simon's dislike of animals and TBH my respect and level of trust are greatly diminished. The gift which I am sending you is called a dog, and is in fact the most precious and valuable possession of mankind." — Theodorus Gaza

  20. Talc works just fine as do graphite and carbon.

  21.  @dianapennepacker6854  Take a look at the Rescue Tool, it has a seriously heavy-duty blade.

  22. Cereal with no sugar huh? How much artificial sweeter is in it? Come on mate, we expect better.

  23. So are the pizza slices.

  24. Yeah well RC is an actual cola whereas Coke and Pepsi are more unique formulations with (AFIK) far less Kola Nut. As an aside you can still buy it in Australia.

  25. We have two at our local airfield here in Australia and I've flown both of them, seriously considering a share in one that will be available in a few months. It's my all-time favourite in my type rating list by far.

  26. Saint Attila invented the hand grenade, obviously.

  27. I'd put Hungry Jacks (Burger King) fries way above Maccas fries at least in Australia; maybe it's different in the US but Jacks fries are crisp outside, fluffy inside and have the best seasoning.

  28.  @StarryxNight5  They're just trolls mate.;

  29. As a person of part Lakota decent Joe is a personal hero. Not because of his war record but because of his undying quest to preserve Native American history. Joe is the finest kind.

  30.  @danielm6049  My top choice for "you can have one gun" would be the Mini 14 ranch rifle. There is little you to be able to do that it can not.

  31. "Plant based, non GMO and gluten free", every buzz word in the entire snack world. What is that annoying muzak in the background?

  32. That is the strangest series.

  33. Bullshit! Every Aussie post office has a separate postbox for "letters to Santa" and they are all answered if a return address is provided. Letters to Santa have ALWAYS been answered, the PMG (now Australia Post) have been doing so since the 50s at least. Why tell such untruths?

  36. WD-40 is very useful stuff but it's a poor lubricant in anything but the short term and for corrosion protection, lanolin sprays are far more effective> TBH there are better penetrating oils as well nowadays but WD is cheap and available everywhere so still has a role to play and of course, it gave us one the best bits of Hank Hill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJNfu3PAWnw

  39. At least it wasn't as deadly as the funniest joke in the world, those poor German troops, what depths did we descend to?

  40. Um, mate, 04:33, that's not a real Coke advert. For starters the "Coke is it" slogan didn't exist before 1982, wasn't that a bit of a giveaway?

  41. Simon doesn't like dogs? Oh dear . . .

  42. LOL, Justin Bieber, The Eagles and Beyonce are satenists? 🤣🤣🤣 OMG! Autocorrect wants me to capitalise the word satenists, THE AUTHORS OF THE PROGRAM MUST WORSHIP THE DARK LORD!!! And of course, we all know the KISS stands for Knights In the Service of Satan. What's that you say? Why is the "in" given a capital letter and "the" and "of" not? Ah-ha! YOU ARE A PART OF THE CONSPIRACY!!!

  43. For all of USPS' many faults, they really do try to deliver mail if at all possible.
