      pfft. guy was a useless lush for the first few decades of his life. then he gets shot every time and spends most of the remaining time in hospital. the only period of his life that was filled with courage and determination would be ww1. then after that back to being a lush, and prisoner. i tell you, all you need is to be known by the elites to and smooj your way into luxury. unearned and uninteresting. however, as a whole, his life was not uneventful... and worth a few minutes of my time (i watched at triple speed). yeah, thats right, if i'm not going to worship gods, you can bet your arse i'm not going to 'ooh and ah' over a person, especially when most of their life is spent so idly.

      This particular thumbnail wouldn't be particularly complicated to make without AI though, it's VERY basic. And T2 already uses art in his videos, I don't think it would harm it for the thumbnails to also be done by a person. Heck, it's so simple, he could do it himself with a few license free stock photos and a copy of GIMP2 (I say this in part because GIMP2 costs nothing). Heck, I'm sure there's editing software on phones that could pull this off.

    *For any non-Brits public' schools are expensive private schools. NOT state schools.

Not knowing the story, i asked him why he always kept one eye closed. He said, "I sleep in this eye half the day and switch the second half. That way i can stay up all the time."

    Also, before his retirement in Ireland:
    "En route home via French Indochina, Carton de Wiart stopped in Rangoon
    as a guest of the army commander. Coming down stairs, he slipped on
    coconut matting, fell down, broke several vertebrae, and knocked himself
    unconscious. He was admitted to Rangoon Hospital where he was treated."

    Very interesting Aran, I like your style. One little detail about about Carton de Wiart's career that you missed out was his brief involvement in the Israeli War of Independence. He was literally just passing through the area when he went ashore with a borrowed rifle and did some sniping on the front line . . .
