Send us Debrief Q's here!
(Ryan) What is the best moment in the series we've seen yet?
(Shane) if you could ditch Ryan at a place in this mystery series where would you ditch him?
I don't know if this will count as a question that works, but I'm eating ice creme and popcorn while watching, so what is you guys favourite type of ice creme and popcorn?
You guys gonna redo any past cases from that certain other channel or is it all new ones planned?
Could this have just simply been a disintegrated meteor that no one has found reminates of?
Do you guys ever think you’ll make more episodes, and film them at that place if possible??
The constant acknowledgment of Ryan’s betrayal of the Professor across shows is just amazing every time
Facts
He knows what he did.
Long live the lore! And the professor! 🍻
It’s amazing across every timeline
Wait, where was it acknowledged in this episode? I must have missed it.
My roommate once said that it's absolutely wild to them that Shane and Ryan only met for the first time as adults because they have the vibe of two friends who grew up together into one of those shared braincell friendships.
They shared a foxhole.
And by Foxhole, I mean a cubicle at Buzzfeed
@@mixmastermind the strongest friendships r the ones made at jobs so bad y'all are practically trauma-bonded
Absolutely mate, they're do have something like rett and linkish connections
Shared braincell is such a perfect description of their friendship I wish they had named their channel that.
If you're wondering how 80 million trees could be flattened like that, imagine 80 million jars of peanut butter being slammed into the ground.
🤣🤣🤣👍
precisely 😂
That's what I was missing! I understand now 🤣
oh, I see now! It's like 80 million jars of peanut butter were slammed into the ground.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
ryan going “you missed” and then immediately switching to “no you hit me” when shane started to aim the blast wave thing again is such peak sibling energy
ryan presents like a detective while shane presents like a professor fr its a vibe
Spot on!
And their respective styles suit them so well!
I wish Shane was my teacher
… a puppet professor perhaps??
Fr it is a vibe
it’s hard to imagine an asteroid traveling at 33,500 mph, but thank god Shane told us to imagine a jar of peanut butter traveling at 33,500 mph. really puts things into perspective
He’s talented. I’m jelly ; )
@@Doubtlessly Mmm, PB&J.
And then imagining 220 million jars of peanut butter, at 1 pound each! I've learned so much thanks to imagining that jar of peanut butter. 🤣
what's heavier a kilogram of peanut butter or a kilogram of feathers?
his humor is really advanced sometimes, honest. it's a great way to say "human beings can't comprehend something this fast." and he followed it up with "human beings can't comprehend something this LARGE moving this fast." right after, but he was able to make a throughline for the two statements to flow better. while also making it pretty humorous, and giving pause to people who didn't quite get it. "wait, what?" humor is a favorite of mine.
Love that Ryan and Shane casually forgot that after World War I, the was an entire *revolution* and upheaval of the Russian government, meaning that a government funded expedition into a remote and sparsely inhabited area was MAYBE not a top priority for a while.
Technically the revolution happened *after* World War 1, but Russia was also kinda mired in a number of smaller wars at the time, especially when it came to Poland and Ukraine (ironically enough). That and Russia was ruled by a Czar so scientific ventures were not *exactly* top priority back then. Though also love how they forget that Siberia is an absolute hellish Tundra to get through. So it more than makes sense that their pace was slowed to a crawl.
The revolution happened in 1917. So just before the end of the First World War.
@CaptainRasmot nope the Revolution happened during WW1. The Bolsheviks were the ones who signed the ceasefire with Germany
To be honest Russia was kind of a shitshow from the late 1800s until...Well to be honest it never really stopped completely...
Well there was also the civil war, they fought from Europe all the way to the far eastern coast along the siberian pacific. Which makes me wonder if they ever fought at the impact site
If Shane was a college professor and his lectures were like this, I'd never skip class.
😅
Watch puppet history. Shane isn't on it, but the Professor has a very similar teaching vibe. I think Shane learned his from him, actually!
@@swguygardneri cant tell if this is sarcasm 😭😭
@@Lily-xh6gi I have no idea what you mean
@@swguygardner shane is the puppet lmao
Shane's repeated reuse of the peanut butter analogy in spite of it reliably and clearly not working is a mood.
Shane is me re using the same event over and over again in my history essay because I ran out of stuff to talk about
Anything but the metric system
I personally found it hilarious for some reason
Hot peanut butter flying at Russia sounds like fun
But what about the Twinkie?
Watcher's quality over quantity format is something I wholeheartedly respect
bro stoppp,Why r u every fking where
You could learn a thing or two from it, since you seem to excel at doing the opposite
@@conifer27 what is your problem
@@conifer27 The fuck?
@@krustykringle Heisenberg is one of those accounts that leaves a comment on seemingly every CZcams video, and it's always something super bland and generic. I thought that what he said here was really ironic because of that
when shane stands in front of the projector around 21:44 the light makes it look like he’s wearing teeny tiny shorts
The fact that he gives that speech with the "short shorts" is soo funny!! 🩲
Omg I was literally thinking that exact same thing lol XD
How Shane's first mystery wasn't the dancing plague of 1518 will always astound me
Man, do I have a series for you
I didn’t quite understand the maths until Shane turned it into the peanut butter thing and honestly that helped a lot
Same. Great reference point.
He knew what he was doin!
"Mmmm . . . roasted peanuts in the sky . . . "
The fact that it genuinely did help put things into perspective for me 💀💀
😆
My eight grade history teacher once pulled one of those blast wave things out of his supply closet and proceeded to use it around the room. I need everyone to know Ryan is screaming over something that feels like a light breeze
so basically ghost files

Ryan begging for his life over a light breeze is everything I needed
I was a bit confused on how big the astroid was, but when Shane compared it to peanut butter jars, it made complete sense.
Shane's such a great presenter. It's crazy that we haven't seen him present anything since Ruining History.
He should collab with the Professor some day.
I would love for them to reboot Ruining History. One of my faves during their Buzzfeed tenure
@@RunswScissors i have always thought that puppet history is ruining history 2.0
oh this made me chuckle
I'm convinced they are the same person. Have you ever seen them in the same room together?!
@@RealBradMiller Well one's a 1 foot tall puppet and the other is a 6 foot 4 giant, so I'm pretty sure not the same person
Ryan’s complete overreaction to being blasted with a puff of wind from a literal children’s toy was everything I needed today. 😂
What the hell IS that thing?? It was a whole lot scarier for those of us who had no clue 😂
@@EH012 it’s essentially a plastic bucket with a piece of plastic and a rubber band where the bottom should be. When you pull back on it and then release, it sends a puff of air in the direction you’re pointing it. Totally harmless and slightly annoying at worst. 😂
That was adorable 😂
It's not overreaction xD i felt it too, a very ticklish feeling
As a kid, I got blasted with one of those things by an employee at the exploratorium. I never got over it cos I felt like it was an overreaction. Until I went again after college and an employee did this to me again. that shit was just as wild as when I was a kid 😂. When you KNOW it’s coming it’s totally fine but when someone surprises you, it’s so ASDSGSJSKKLA
Shane's usage of the jar of peanut butter is probably the funniest thing I've ever seen. It made me laugh so hard, for a moment I forgot I was depressed :'D
When someone asks me in the future why watch so much CZcams I'm using this as my answer from here on out.
"Sometimes they make me laugh hard enough I forget that I would prefer to be dead most moments of most days."
10:58 the way shane sensed that ryan was about to do something and shane just stopped him like a dad😭
There was a little sound effect in there as well.
I love how Ryan earnestly urges Shane not to predict an asteroid strike in the next 20 years, as if Shane predicting the pandemic made it happen
He did?
When did he predict it?
Shane single handedly brought about the plague of a century!
@@MovieBuffConnorJamieson when the went to a hospital for some historical pandemic (tuberculosis I think) the we talking about the big grave and how many died and Shane was like I sense it will happen again soon. He is a demon so he probably knew cause of that.
😊
I don't know why I thought Ryan would be presenting a mystery every time but I'm thrilled to be wrong. This will absolutely be my favourite series.

not as good as buzzfeed the animations etc because it involves you more in the moment
@@topnotchadvice3375i think it’s definitely a different experience. The unsolved series in general had a more, intimate feeling? This is more casual i think, in part because they said they were going ti do more non murder mysteries.
Same man, as soon as I say Shane up there I was like 😲
I'm dig them shakin things up a lil
cause ryan would narrate everything in unsolved, are you scared, and did the first of this series lol. although shane iS the narrator of puppet history so he has that and this series too :0
HOW DID I JUST NOW FIND THIS CHANNEL?! I have literally cried myself to sleep each and every night since Unsolved ended. I now have a new lease on life! Thanks guys!
How did you just found it indeed considering they mentioned it on every buzzfeed video they did since they founded the company
I’ve been missing their videos for years and just now found this! Now my day is made!
can I just say I love that you guys always have subtitles and now the list of sensitive subjects being touched on??? like the accessibility on this channel is so awesome 😭💖
This episode showed us exactly why ryan is scared of ghosts. He’s actually just been scared of wind the whole time.
Shane needs to do all the science mysteries and Ryan needs to do all the true crime, it’s a working dynamic and I aM HERE FOR IT. ALL OF IT.
Beep bop... I'm the Philosophy Bot. Here, have a quote:

True that!
and the Professor the History, They would make the unbeatable trio
Shane: IMAGINE a jar of peanut butter going 33,500mph
Ryan: okay-
Shane: now the asteroid is heavy, now IMAGINE 220million of those JARS-
Ryan: okay that’s even harder to imagine-
Shane: NOW IMAGINE THE PEANUT BUTTER BEING 44,500 DEGREES-
Ryan: uh sounds tasty ig-
idk how no-one has mentioned how the colour of Shane's pants combined with where the projector light is hitting his legs is making him look like he is presenting in short shorts or boxers the entire time but i swear I cannot unsee it LMAO
who could have ever guessed that shane’s episode would be infinitely more chaotic than ryan’s??
Hot Daga, Puppet History, and that episode where shane tore the head off an obviously haunted puppet would have been a good basis.

It's literally so unhinged.
It's like 40 mins in or something
I love Shane’s presenting style it’s like that teacher who actually does stuff to make sure you understand the material
He should be a professor of some sort
I love when teachers do this, even more so when Shane does. He could totally be a teacher or something.
Haha. He even acted like a teacher when he saw ryan get distracted by the wind maker. 😂😂
The peanut butter :,)
I adore how intrigued and mouthy Ryan is too. He’s that one kid that asks questions and becomes a playful smartass when the teacher doesn’t know or the answer he was given doesn’t make any sense.
The logo for this series is maybe the most perfect example of branding I’ve ever seen I love it sooooo much
That's Tremendous, I have always felt compelled to pursue knowledge and power in order to contribute to the betterment of humanity. Been seeking a means to be influential and find out more knowledge about the human race and about the things not everyone is destined to know. I wish to fulfill the goal of enlightenment passed down by our forebears~
I can totally relate to your passion, if all that is what you desire then i think it's achievable. Joining the Illuminatus Brotherhood can lead to the enlightenment you seek and more. I am well aware that the idea of this group may sound mythical but it is possible to join.
@@bartholetbay412 Hi, isn't the brotherhood a myth? I mean sometimes i just feel like it's just a conspiracy theory.
@@Margart526 Yeah I acknowledge that misunderstanding can occur when people encounter what they don't fully grasp, especially in this internet era. The Illuminatus advocates for the acceptance of all religions. You can look up "Anthony Szymon". Will give you clarity and answers to any questions you might have.
@@bartholetbay412 oh really, i just saw his website, which is interesting. I will leave him a message.
Shane really looks like that one professor we’ve all had who’s completely crazy yet passionate about his job 😂
For real. I wonder how he'd do as a professor, perhaps one of history
Bruh. Shane is my Mr. Schmaela. Horticulture. 🌿 He was so passionate about plants n it was cool to watch him go on hour long ramblings // side notes 😂 so all the hippies took his class 😮💨
He deffo dropped a lot of acid back in the day 😂 but he was eccentric and we loved him. Absolutely 😂
Meanwhile Ryan looks like the guy who listens to music in the back of the classroom in this episode
@@ZekromAndYugiAndDrago123 see that's what I was thinking, maybe if he was smaller, maybe blue and fuzzy too.
Absolutely loving how the shadows on Shane make him look like he’s wearing really short shorts the entire time

Help I can't unsee it 😂
tysm for pointing this out i had on captions so i didn’t notice and this is truly a spot on description
😅 I noticed that too! 😅
As a dinosaur im glad yall put those warnings at the beginning bc I wasn't ready. Had to tap out when you showed the asteroid (the peanut butter jar was easier to handle)
I have never clicked on anything SO QUICKLY IN MY LIFE, Shane as a host is so so good

Gotta say, I'm really enjoying the exploration of non-murder mysteries! There's so much untapped potential there
YES.
Agree
big agree
100% agree
I'm so glad that Shane will be presenting as well because we get gems like the Referentially Useless Peanut Butter Jar, "One Big Bitch," the RUPBJ again, "and probably some squirrels and shit," and Ryan begging for his life vs. Shane with an air blaster.
I love Shane's way of presenting with his funny sound effects and reactions and all. I'd love to have him as a professor in University
I’d pay so much money for a history class taught by Shane
Me too. I’d learn way more
Same here, right now we only have history by that puppet guy. Too bad Shane has never been on that show😔😔😔😔
Sure your gonna pay for him to teach come on man....now Imagine a Jar of Peanut butter teaching us about history
might I recommend puppet history…not shane, obviously, but very similar energy
my history teacher last semester was like shane, hes one of my favorite teachers and i hope i get him for history next year
Ryan presenting Mystery Files: "This case was compared in the media to the infamous heist of D.B. Cooper, referenced on page 15 of your information packs..."
Shane presenting Mystery Files: "IMAGINE A JAR OF PEANUT BUTTER..."
Ryan urgently telling Shane to not predict the asteroid impact in the next 20 years and then following it with the fact that Shane predicted the pandemic is exactly what I needed today. 😂😂😂
I'm surprised Shane didn't mention what I feel like is the most probable theory of all: That the meteor exploded in the air just above the epicenter, similarly to the way the nuclear bombs exploded at Nagasaki and Hiroshima. That explains why there's no impact crater and why the trees at the center were left debarked but standing. Again, similar to how trees at the epicenter of the nuclear blasts were left. To me, the airburst theory has always seemed like the most likely explanation for the event.
Oo that is clever
That’s what I was thinking but how does an asteroid just explode? Break off into little pieces sure but not explode
I agree. And the Chelyabinsk meteor, which we have video of exploding over Russia, is pretty good evidence that it at least is something that can happen.
@@FruityKoala If the meteor had a lot of ice in it, the heat from passing through the atmosphere could have caused it to flash vaporize, exploding the meteor like an overpressurized water boiler.
I was thinking about this the entire time. They even mentioned that it broke up and never hit the ground. There are just so many pointers to this theory.
Being a Russian myself, I died laughing at Shane’s improvised accent, it’s so good and authentic
Если есть на свете Рай - это 3:27

@@henrijs1733 the most important kind of degree! I support you
I don't think I'm alone in this, but even if I am: Mystery Files is very much a comforting series for me (all Ryan and Shane stuff is for me, but this format is very, very good). I would watch another full season of this if they chose to make another, with no hesitation. I'd probably watch it as many times over as I have this season. I don't think they will now that Ghost hunting is back in session, but hey, one can dream.
Hey I feel the same way they are comforting . I don’t think CZcamsrs know how much help they are in certain lonely times.
I love when two friends truly love each other.
Let me say, I REALLY like that this is about unsolved mysteries that DON'T involve murder/true crime, necessarily. I can't imagine that reading out brutal details of murders so often was good for the Ghoul Boys mental health
I agree, I’m not a big true crime fan because watching/reading about murder details is too heartbreaking for me so I love a good ole mystery without too many gruesome details
yeah im glad they’re purposely leaving out true crime bc its such a sensitive topic & it would be difficult to make it light, contrary to the tone of the show
I mean, it might still later. It just so happens that the first two episodes don't. 🤷♂️
I totally agree, emotions and death _don't_ mix well. I took a forensics class in high school and even I agree.
So much death and despair weighs down on you. It's definitely important to stop stewing in it as much as we tend to do.
Take a break from the angst fics and watch a cartoon from the 90s! 😊
as someone who is forced to watch true crimes cases nearly every night, i agree. it's really not great for mental health, i'm forced to dream about myself going through what the victim had gone through. night or day, it makes me livid.
This feels less like a mystery and more like Shane went down a deep dive of Wikipedia and just really wanted to tell Ryan about this event.
It's what it says in the decription
He did find lots of information I'd never heard of, and I'm familiar with the Tunguska Event.
@@russianbot7875 oh lol it goes to show I have never read a description for a video ever
The great thing is they both like random things. It’s so nice to have a friend listen to you enraptured by whatever your current random weird obsession is. My friends listen politely when there’s some story that I find utterly fascinating but they really just don’t care. 😅
The rest of the world: uses the metric system
The US: *imagine a jar of peanut butter*
That Rodney Dangerfield look Shane gets at 6:54 gets me 😂
When Shane did the bit about the jar of peanut butter I had to INSTANTLY smash the like button and come here to tell you that this episode is genius and I love it.
I paused the video snd added peanut butter to my grocery list! 😅 Totally forgot I needed it until Shane mentioned it!
That part made me chuckle out louddddd.
It's always fun to see Shane being the one to inflict knowledge on Ryan
…”Inflict” is the *absolutely correct* word for Shane’s unique education style.
*inflict* LMAO
I like how they got the math wrong and no one noticed. He said the first expedition to the site of impact happened in 1921, almost 20 years later. But the impact happened in 1908. so the expedition happened 13 years later, not 19 years. I like when shows make small mistakes like that. It's cute and funny until they show a significantly wrong information.
@@captainaizen4866 this is the sort of thing they'll likely correct in their debrief, but since the years shown were apparently correct and only the math was wrong, the mistake doesn't seem especially relevant
19:09 i love how someone behind the scenes is laughing too hahahhaha
omg i love this duo
it was so funny i enjoyed it alot
thanks to this duo and the team for putting this together :)
Loving this series so much. Also their argument at the end being heated but ending with dinner plans is the kind of mood boost i needed
As to how long it took them to get there - remember that this is Siberia, and this is the early 1900s. There were no roads to where they were going, no towns, nothing but forests and bogs and only a few months of the year that they could travel without getting snowed in. And they had to carry everything they needed - food, scientific instruments, tents and such, mostly on pack horses. This wasn’t a casual sight-seeing trip, this was an expedition into the wilderness.
Honestly it also makes sense that an expedition wasn't launched until _after_ the Russian Revolution and civil war. The Tsar was never really known for being big on scientific inquiry.
@@theideaofevil It would be nice if they gave a little bit of historical context
Also, absolutely massive mosquito swarms. Just so many mosquitoes according to everyone who's done fieldwork in the region.
I love how when Ryan is the host he’s professional and dramatic as opposed to bing lax and cracking jokes when he’s not the host. Meanwhile Shane is always bringing his casual unhinged nature to every shoot no matter what.
Ryan’s laugh is so contagious 😂
i love the look shane gave ryan when ryan was ranting about aliens. the sound affects were spot on lol
he just had the face of like "is this bitch serious?"
The credits rolling as soon as Ryan and Shane start arguing is the exact vibe I love, brilliant work from the whole crew
Shane would’ve made a hilarious teacher based on the immediate redirection of Ryan when he was going for the wind thing. 😂
10:58 - he’s really rocking that “cool professor/uncle” vibe
He reminds me of my favorite science teacher from jr high. Dude would make outrages puns, blow up balloons and pop them if students were sleeping, shock desks of said sleepy students, and just gave weird examples (like a jar of peanut butter) to help us remember the periodic table. Best teacher ever 🥲
He would be fun as a teacher
These two have such an awesome chemistry. Its a joy to watch them together, regardless of what they are doing.
Found your channel thanks to Atozy. Great stuff. Glad you're not leaving CZcams.
Shane would make a pretty good professor! Maybe even a history professor!
Not as good as The Professor though
Perhaps almost as good a history professor as our dear Professor Concupiscence McNasty.
@@stormcloudsabound He could replace him any day and I would be happy about it. Love the concept of PH but the Professor Entitled McAsshole with his stupid 'algorithm' which always decides against Ryan is runing it for me. It's childish and plain stupid!

@@sarahkelly7991 1:37 onward!
The thing about the trees at the epicenter still standing isn't THAT weird. Explosions above the ground can do that, as seen in the nuclear bomb dropped on Hiroshima. The famous domed building that is now a part of the memorial park wasn't totally destroyed and had part of its structure remain standing, because it was at the epicenter directly beneath where the bomb exploded. Something about the way the force of the explosion emanates makes whatever is directly under it take a little less of the impact compared to the stuff a little bit farther out.
Also, we know from observation that asteroids can explode before they hit the ground and not leave an impact crater. We all saw that firsthand when the Chelyabinsk meteor "hit" in 2013. It broke apart and burned up before it hit the ground, so there was no crater, but the force of it coming into the atmosphere still caused a damaging shockwave in the surrounding area.
13:20 I thought, "Oh yeah, 1000 miles away, that's pretty far" but then looked it up and that's like saying people in Tampa, Florida saw the giant fireball that hit Chicago, Illinois.
If Shane taught something at college, I would have still not graduated but I sure as hell wouldn't miss a single lesson.
Dang nothing has been more relatable then this statement
Shane is such a good presenter for things like this, it's weird he didn't do it sooner. I'd watch him present historical events.
I honestly wish we could get Puppet History with him as the presenter and literally ALL the other puppets apart from the blue asshole one. This time I'm on the Buzzfeed team- Ruining History was the better show for me.
@@adrianaheiler9794did Ryan ghostwrite this comment 😭
Shane as the substitute for the professor would be amazing. Too bad he'd have to catch up on like years of lore just to know what Ryan's talking about
@nifikcin I didn't know people actually didn't like the professor lmaoo
18:05 I cannot be the only one who briefly though Shane was wearing shorty shorts while standing in front of the slide projector
For those wondering what it might've actually looked like to see such a massive asteroid explode, theres tons of footage of a very similar meteor airburst that happened in 2013. The Chelyabinsk meteor which released something like 100 kilotons TNT equivalent and injured over 1000 people from flying debris caused by the blast wave.
im really enjoying the dorky dad bud vibes hanging out in the basement for weekly conspiracy nights while their wives and kids are doing something normal like dinner or game night, ryan and shane really delivered with this one

I am WHEEZING. The vibe is like two best friends in high school trying to practice for a presentation but they keep getting sidetracked. I love this so much.
4:45 i love Ryan's immediate retraction of saying Shane missed cause he knows he'll try again. that's such a sibling move
2:21 It's analogies like THAT, that keep me coming back for more
I like that the projector makes it look like shane has short shorts on.
"I've never held one of these before. Except for that one time." Yep, that one hurt my soul. But I love the peanut butter gag, the two of them constantly using the air burst simulator on each other. It's absolutely hilarious, especially when Ryan aimed for Shane's Balls.
Also, I've heard about this event many times before. It's actually a major part of the plot of the game, _Destroy All Humans 2._
Yep, these are some great moments.
I love that game.
That air burst bucket was great.
Shane's reaction of 'this is fine' and then the "OOF" when Ryan aimed lower 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
love how in the intro Shane called him his ''colleague Ryan'' but the little sign underneath said ''Shane's friend'' like you can't fool us
after having seen all these blast shenanigans, i now propose to cross out both colleague and friend and replace them with brother
@@headlesszebra9857I second that proposal
Thank you for including possible triggers/sensitive topics in the description. 😮💨😌
Because of his reaction to that air cannon, we can add 'literal wind' to the long list of Ryan's fears.
Based off this, I think I want Shane's take on the Dyatlov Pass Incident
Yes!!! I would love that!!
More Russian or similar mysteries yes
Hell yeah we need an updated version!!!
This series has the MOST sibling energy,,, (well, it's tied with Too Many Spirits where there are 3 siblings and one friend over for a sleepover instead) I love it 😭
okay here's the real question: who's the friend on TMS? lol because I feel like Steven or Ricky could be the friend in this situation, depending on how you look at it
@@sethescope it's definitely Ricky. Steven, Ryan, and Shane all have sibling energy while Ricky is most definitely that one friend who's friends with them all (well...maybe not all the time in Steven's case). They're too nice to Ricky lol
Homeboy laughing at 19:09 was me the whole episode 😂 Shane and Ryan are literally just like the guys I bull shitted with at school. I’d drink a beer with y’all anytime lol
having shane and ryan change presenting every other week is brilliant. you get the serious matter of fact sense with ryan and then it contrasts with the absolute batshit crazy shane who keeps talking about peanut butter
As a little brother of 7 boys, the big brother, little brother energy between Shane and Ryan gets me every time
I know right 😊
Who's the older and who's the younger?
I'd say they switch between younger when they are presenting and older when they are sitting 😂😂😂
@@angelinastudies imo Shane has older brother vibes, Ryan’s the long-suffering middle child and Steven’s the baby
@@bridgetdunleavy3549 which is funny because I'm pretty sure in their families: Ryan has a younger brother, Shane has an older brother, and Steven is "the middle child"
Shane's russian is actually not bad! When he said "krasnoyarskii krai" I almost choked on my tea because I didn't expect it to be that good😂
аххахахаха да!!
The whole “why did it explode?” aspect is honestly a lot less confusing to me than “how were felled and charred/dead(?) trees still there and able to point the scientists in the right direction after a couple decades?”
Shane's peanut butter analogy is what my entire physics class was like
Ryan getting freaked out and giggling over a wind gun is the highlight of my day.
