Alien: "Wait, Australia is real?"
Alex: "No one told you about the drop bears?"
"how do we train our elite special forces soldiers?" me: send them to Alabama, "what about Australia?" we're training soldiers, not killing prisoners for sport,
Struth Mate that's a little harsh even if true Live from Alice Springs NT Australia 🇦🇺
@@DarthAwar buddy of mine lived in all the different states of Australia, including Tasmania, once he got to Alabama he felt like he could sleep without needing to check under his pillow for a random spider
We were trying to train them, not kill them.
This story gave me the impression that they never fought any wars. Their army is about as deadly as a bunch of boy scouts.
I think Lego would be a grater hazard
1.32g you get more in a normal elevator, and maybe up to 2.5g in a fast elevator, and up to 3g on a rollorcoster (they could get up to 5g but could fly off the track )
Oh you mean 1.32 g's, not 1.32 grams
Seems someone was dedicated to writing an article on elevator forces.
Look at this.

Why would space traveling races that are hanging out with a human in an office to design worlds be impressed that we went to the moon and launched probes?
I think it is because humans for 100k years fought nature and each other to survive, then when finally developing agriculture and written language ended up fighting bloody wars with one another for the next 4,000 years until finally reaching the industrial age, just to fight in world wars and develop nukes (which would not have been necessary without scarcity of resources), but managed not to wipe each other out and culminate in space travel.
With earth at a 13, it seems like Earth is actually like a really bad spawn point and other planets had tons of resources which led to there being no need for war over the resources and the species just coasting to greatness… kind of like if we didn’t ever care to fight because everything was plenty everywhere and it lead to ancient Egypt making the first moon landing, the Middle Ages being like Star Trek, and present time being like a Class 1.5 or 2 civilization.
Then in that case, with them developing on 2 or 4 planets like they are in cheat mode, just the fact that humans didn’t become extinct (which we almost did 12,000 or so years ago) and made it to the galactic table to have a voice at all, would be considered to all to be an amazing feat, and give them a sense of respect even if the other races were more advanced.
In some of the other stories, alien civilizations were aided in space travel or ruins of ancient high tech civilizations were common on other planets. Which aided other species of civilizations to attain space travel. Humans achieved space flight completely on their own
The story implied Aliens uplifted Humans into the Galaxy with, "...Which our planet is supposed to be in if not for our over use of fossile fuels for the century and a half leading up to first contact.", and, "You mean you've achieved extra-planetary travel on your own?".
@@IyiouseismouseIf only they knew the truth. Earth is a planet of plenty but there are too many greedy humans hording all to themselves which leads to war. Even deserts could be fertile rainforests if people wouldn't fight needlessly and would learn to work together.One man alone (Jadav Payeng) did this in Northern India over the course of four decades. Imaginr if more people worked together...
I think the story is meant to impress on the idea that humans lived in such harsh environments and still took themselves beyond their planet to live elsewhere
One could also theorize that many civilizations may not have become space faring in their own right, and were instead uplifted technologically by another race, to a creature who’s race got this leg up to be confronted by another creature who lived in such a drastically more difficult environment and yet took themselves further technologically before joining the overall galaxy, would be a terrifying and impressive experience for them, just my thought anyway
the human skeleton in the thumbnail looks really badass ;)
Love the writing. I wonder if adding the following would have been fun in regards to "how did we survive." Also, young males in our species evolved this deep need to actively seek out and overcome great danger, high risk and even war for no other reason than to make daily life interesting. Otherwise, many find life just too dull to enjoy.
As someone from florida we drive to the pizza shop for pizza in cagt 3 hurricanes in my town lol

Waffle House don't even close down for less than a 4.
If it's got mean cats its a could scarry. Even Australia knows..
Okay it got a little stupid when he's talking about landing on the moon and probes to other planets. Did somebody forget this is supposed to be a man who works for an alien Corporation building habitats for aliens
I think the point is we managed that with such primitive tech all on our own, without a more advancef civ to help us out.
Man I fucking live in Australia and sometimes I wonder how the fuck Earth is even real.
Especially with the whole HFY classifications, because truly we are a class XX Deathworld.
And then there's the fucking diet. We eat the spicy plant for angie foods.
I just cleaned a bunch of homegrown peppers for tomorrow's main meal. My hands are still tingling and I need to wash them a few more times before I may touch my face or other sensitive parts, else it burns.
And tomorrow I will eat that.
Australia 🇦🇺 appreciate the comment
I once read that in Australia, just be aware that everything there is trying to kill you, enjoy your stay!
@@JFDSmit-rm6tw I am an Ozzie Native
Australia, where everything wants to unalive you and more than half of it can 😂
I've learned a great deal from this and other AI read stories. Terra and terror are pronounced the same in British English but different in American English, and this is not the only such difference. This explains many of the glitches in voicing and spelling. /gh/ is another difficulty, among many [BTW Americans only use among, but Britons may use amongst]. Readers of people using variations of the latin alphabet but with different pronunciations have the same issue as the AI. I'm not sure if writing the scripts in IPA would work given the dialect differences. I once heard a Texan speaking German, the grammar and vocabulary were correct but the extreme accent made it difficult for me to understand, even though I have studied German. Then there are Geordies', Aussies', Cajuns' and other dialects that are difficult.
Me listening to what amounts to a vacation brochure of my home country: ah, home sweet home... don't tell them about the Maggie's or the roos... blue ringed octopus or croc might break their thought processor yeah?
I still find it rediculous that Earth could be considered a deathworld.
If earth is a deathworld, than most every world is a deathworld based on environmental difficulty alone.
We have a narrow range of environmental conditions in the right range of values for our life.
We aren't tidally locked or forever under one plant spanning hurricane of molten glass. Our planet isn't actively shedding its atmosphere at an appreciable rate.
We even have a magnetosphere.
Well maybe a planet wide constant hurricane could support life... but point is we have some amount of consistency.
but it IS actively shedding its atmosphere. It's doing so very slowly, and the volcanic activity releases more from the bowels constantly, but it is in fact being belched out into space at a consistent pace and will eventually be gone.
True, but we also have no example of another world with complex life. For all we know, life in general cannot survive the extremes earth has, and the worlds that life usually evolves on are generally tamer than earth. Of course, it could be the opposite too, that we have a perfect world in comparison to others out there. That is, assuming there is anything else out there. We know nothing until we have other examples so we can create whatever entertaining stories we want, not worrying about realism.
So you are saying that Jupiter would have life even if they got that raging giant red spot (storm)?😮
@@zarroth Earth isn't a closed system. There's nothing of the sort in the universe, and entropy will claim everything in the universe eventually.
AHH You forget the Devil's zoo called Australia and Canadian cobra chickens
Terra is another name for Earth, but the text shows terror.
AIs are stupid.
I really liked the story, but the AI reading is really anoying with the frequent pauses mid sentece...
He sure screwed up the Age of Glaciation cycles.
20:18 "Civil consultant Alabama Ex"? I think someone fed the TTS a bad text file. 😂
it was corrupted like this: "Al ex" or "Al x" instead of "Alex". Just one bit flipped.
well done
Train harder than you expect to fight.
😅😅 Dude this story is already uploaded at least 3 months ago on various channels.
You just changed some graphics and swapped AI lector.
I appreciate this being listed as AI created.
But as I'm listening to it, it sounds like a different story, except when the human wrote it, they said, "like Washington State" instead of "like the Pacific North West"
And they didn't have a galactic citizen being impressed that we went explored our own moon.
Huh, starts like another hfy story I know of. But that one ended at the "Australia is real?!". This extensions it a lot.
lol, well done.

*"Don't get me started with Chernobyl, the Deathclaws there are sexy and thicc... but also terribly radioactive"*
I was just thinking, what a terrible day to have eyes
Just send the recruits off with a Boy Scout troop on Earth. Keep them in a mostly safe area with kids who know how to survive. Then give them a patch.
Changing gravity in a day is not a good idea, not only muscles and bones would get hurt but organs and nerves also.
Depends on the speed of change. If it happens gradually like the tide, it would be ok, if it was like flipping a switch it would lead to injuries for sure.
terror do you mean terra ???
Yep. The AI is always making errors like that.
An appropriate Freudian slip.
Did you catch the part where the guys name changed to Alabama X? LOL....these AIs are annoying and the people using them are just lazy
nah, he knows what he said, earth is pure nightmare fuel for xenos
@@hugosinclair6798 Since we can imagine worlds that are worse and in an infinite universe everything exists, there are worse worlds out there.
Fun for a bit but ultimately lacking in depth and understanding. Oh well .
12:02 i don't recall anyone being swallowed whole.
While the flying spiders are an unpleasant experience, i don't recall if they are deadly, i doubt it.
I don't know if whales can swallow a human whole, given what they eat is so small.
Probably talking about deep sea octopi, not a threat again.
Sharks don't bother us much, we aren't tasty and don't look or smell like food.
12:50 and it only works on ants afaik
Good story.
One pet peeve:
TerrA, not TerrOR, most of the time. AI audio to text needs proofreading. :P
There is no place like Home.
Same story with 100 thumbnail
The narrator sounds a little like Peter Dinklage
TERRA
Tornado alley
So the irony of being read to by an AI which has no sense of human inflection or cadence was intended, demonstrating a keen sense of sarcasm and self awareness? Sadly, no. FFS.

that's now 13 of these videos in a row that uses the word "sapient" incorrectly.
Climate change? LOL!
Very WOKE
