There's also a leap second that happens occasionally to make everything correct, but the powers that be are planning to stop adding that second by 2035 as computers don't calculate it and throws time off.
I'm in New Zealand and some petrol pumps were not working today (29 Feb) because the bloody software couldn't cope with leap year. WTF were the programmers thinking? I won't be alive when the year 2100 rolls around. I wonder if software then will cope with 2100 not being a leap year?
Joshua stopped the "Sun" 3,224 years ago..."Then Joshua spoke to the Lord on the day when the Lord delivered the Amorites before the children of Israel; and he said in the sight of Israel: ‘Sun, stand still upon Gibeon; and you, Moon, in the valley of Ayalon.’” (Joshua 10:12). The bible tells us that Joshua was in a great battle and he needed the earth to stop its rotation for the span of 24 hours so they could have sufficient daylight in order to win the battle and the Lord granted him this request...thus affecting our calendar for ever...if you've wondered why are we missing a day this is the answer
Straight to the point and clearly explained. Wonderful
March 1, 2024 starts on a Friday, just like March started on a Friday in 2019.
I'm "Leaping" for joy for the graphics & explanation in that segment!. LOL!.

Nice explanation.
And easy on the eyes.
nobody over 20 is going to live to see the year 2100, so every four years will be a leap year for the rest of our lives.
An amazing explanation ! Thank you
Very interesting, nice to learn more about leap years in greater depth. Great video!

I hope y'all kept your 2019 calendars, starting tomorrow, 2024 uses the same calendar as 2019, for the rest of the year.
My Mother birthday is LEAP YEAR 2/29 😇
What's her leap year age ?
I am to 29th February 2004
Leap years occur every year there is a Presidential election. We need an extra day to receive more B.S. and empty promises from candidates.

When 2100 comes around it'll be wetware; the kids' brains will make the adjustment on the fly.
Try explaining this in an urban innercity public school system like New York City.
Not everyone gets to celebrate their birthday every year 🫠
Happy Birthday to me! Yeah, sucks getting 1 birthday every 4 years.

That's BS, ⚠️ because I don't like anything interfering with my 🍺 beer 🍻 drinking. 😮 Just saying, you know?

So the flat earth people are right? I'm so confused!😅
Americans can't even identify NATO so you know they won't understand this
C’mon man, we had to develop our own system of measurement because we couldn’t understand millimeters and Celsius
I hate leap year, it adds a day to black history month.
