Safety Third is a weekly show hosted by William Osman, NileRed, The Backyard Scientist, Allen Pan, and a couple other CZcams "Scientists". Sometimes we have guests, sometimes it's just us, but always: safety is our number three priority.
Seeing Tom Scott on Safety Third is like seeing your teacher at a strip club.
Technical Difficulties; LIVE in a strip club!
I love this metaphor lmao
It's not that weird. We used to run into our gym teacher at teh strip bar all the time.
@@pileofstuff I hope you tipped him well
@@pileofstuff gym teacher is different with school teachers thoug.
We all know that Tom always looks like he's in his 20s and 60s at the same time, but here he fits in perfectly while also being the odd one out.
IKR?! 🤯😂😂😂
it’s amazing 😸
He looks really good for his age
this is kinda backhanded lol
@@s--b it is, but he's played into the "looks 20 and 40 at the same time" meme by just saying he's in between. Him being in his 30's makes sense with how he looks. Has an aged look but is obviously younger than the hair color implies.
That's because everyone in the video is the odd one out
Tom Scott continuing his excellent mission to collaborate with every CZcamsr
He and William have already collaborated in the past. Although this is the first time with the others
He's going through every podcast on YT. First it was Waveform, now it's Safety Third. Can't wait to see him on the WAN Show?
@@ThinkAboutVic bruh wan show with Luke, Linus and Tom scott
Also his excellent mission of having to explain what a phobia is to every youtuber. "It's an IRRATIONAL, UNCONTROLLABLE FEAR. Reassuring me of the safety/science will not help."
I have to have the same talk with people about my tarantula phobia. "It doesn't make any sense, I know. I know that tarantulas aren't deadly, the deadly spiders are much smaller. Yes I know they have very weak venom and they are scared of me. Phobias aren't logical."
Not *every* youtuber
Just the people I'm already subscribed to - and then those I then immediately decide to subscribe to.
Tom's my own weaponised search-algorithm.
Tom is unusually sane and collected for a guest on safety third.
I think he's just unusually sane and collected. The rest of us are bonkers and constantly making poop jokes for a boost of serotonin
@@ajsparx4133 and that's a blessing imo, we have to be reminded every now and then how sane and collected looks like y'know
Forget Kevin Bacon, at some point we'll be at the 6 degrees of Tom Scott.
@@ajsparx4133 bruh scatological humor has always been shit.
@@taylordcraig Nice
Honestly kind of odd to see Tom Scott in an environment where he's not in control of the situation and/or production; it's like running into your high school principal in a nightclub.
He's one of those weird CZcams cryptids who has done such a good job of isolating their professional life from their personal one that you kind of assume they functionally stop existing when a video ends. The man literally wears the same thing every single day, like a cartoon character... What am I supposed to think??????
poor guy
tbf his shirt origin story is brilliant
HE IS MEANT TO BE LIKE A CARTOON CHARECTER! he was on a show once, and was told out continuality , and so he picked a red shirt, ordered a fuckton (along with grey jumpers) to wear to this thing and he just kept up with it. Also the only mildly-personal fact we know is that his flat (apartment? idk the difference) is tiny and some stuff about mad cap’n tom, old bbc4 shows, talks he’s done, and old techdiff
@@houwlingwoolf we don't know if he has a significant other- hell, he could have a kid. We don't know and that's good. He's generally uncomfortable being a public person (said so on his tweet about becoming a meme) and it surprises people when he discusses anything that hints to him being a real person- like that he's had ex girlfriends, food poisoning, jet lag- that he couldn't ride a bike. Those are normal things for a human.
I'm glad he's kept his life private, it's not good for the mental health to be a public figure and I wouldn't want him to be unwell.
He literally has a Charlie Brown closet
I quite like how Tom pushed back on making this an interview on him, it made the podcast way way more pleasant.
That pleasantness disappeared when the thought of Caillou hntai was forced into my mind
@@Indyinghe probably felt the same
Tom Scott really surprised me in this video, in two great ways: 1. He was a straight shooter with them, whether he meant to be or not. 2. He was confident and set hard boundaries, and was funny while doing it. He's always come across as the living embodiment of nervousness, so I didn't expect either of these.
Very fun video.
Number 2 is something I wish I was better at
Really? He's been a host for many game show esque things, same skills. Then there's the park bench, Tech Diff, and the recent Tom Scott Plus.
So... Idk. Plus he constantly interviews people. I don't get it. He has his people skills down.
@@plzletmebefrank agreed, I came to say the same thing (Matt and Tom was great)
@@plzletmebefrank But that's all with Tom more or less at the helm. It feels weird seeing him as a featured guest on someone else's projects
I love how it took 4 minutes for Tom to be cornered into talking about himself. I hate that it took Allen mentioning Caillou hentai for Tom to be cornered into talking about himself
The fact that he refused it lead to me googling it, now I understand.
Thank you Tom Scott.
@@AmKhaibitu why would you Google that? I don't understand what you could possibly gain from Googling that. Good lord
@@jeffbezos2960 knowledge.
Also I didn't know the subject matter, so I needed to see the why of Tom's reaction.
@@AmKhaibitu the subject matter of Caillou hentai? Isn't it pretty self explanatory
@@jeffbezos2960 it would be if I had been aware of the Caillou part, you know after decades of consuming media and forgetting things.
Wow this is actually a treat getting Tom Scott. He’s made quite a name for himself on CZcams by doing just about everything. Very entertaining creator.
Agreed. How the heck does he condense a 2 hour documentary into a 4 minute youtube video and leave us all feeling like we've learned a huge amount of information?
@@Richard-Freeman ✨Conciseness✨
he's such a savage guy, fits in perfectly with this bunch's humor.
I miss linguistics videos
I’m glad they can bring attention to this small youtuber
"we are bad at making videos"
"Well you gave up for a while" hahaha damn tom
This is SURREAL seeing Tom Scott with the gang.
It's so strange seeing him here but so oddly expected
Yeah, it MUST be a deepfake
I'm really glad they're sticking by this podcast and it wasn't just a one-off. Tom Scott is the perfect kind of guest you'd expect on the show, a charismatic science educator who can make any subject, even boring ones, entertaining enough to show in a class room to pretty much any age group yet be entertaining enough to watch as an adult.
he's done video with will and michael in the past so its exactly a surprise
@@danang5 so? Both of them are busy and they live in different countries. I feel like your comment had one point: to announce to everyone "i am smarter than all of you they have a video together already ha ha it's actually sad that your so dum that u thought this was a surprise"
tom scott is 38 and william osman is 31... their energy and character is so different... when i watch toms videos i feel like watching a lecture from a prof, its so serious. when i watch wills videos i feel like watching myself making stuff out of my degree, its so experimental. both are lovely in its different way
Regarding film photography: There's a saying: A medium format roll with 12 pictures yields 6 good ones. A 36-shot film roll also yields 6 good photos. And shooting 2000+ images onto an SD card also yields 6 images that end up being used. Really makes you think.
You know what I feel that’s weirdly accurate. I brought a 36 exposure roll of 35mm film to Chicago and only like 7 photos ended up being interesting whatsoever
Makes sense. The limited supply of film in your camera forces you to be much more intentional in choosing and framing a subject which gives a better end result. I think the best professional photographers are able to capture this mentality without having to actually physically limit the number of photos they can take.
it does, about how fucking expensive they are, says nothing about the quality if you were already only going to use 6
I have never seen a man unintentially make such a god tier minecraft villager sound in my damn life. 22:07
wtf. amazing.
😂😂😂
Oh my god. Hearing Tom geek out about rollercoasters in the same way I do makes me so damn happy. Knowing manufacturers and track styles and all of that stuff. God to think he was PETRIFIED of getting on those coasters in his video, now he's as big an enthusiast as some coaster vets are. I love it!
Coaster vets? 👀
@@emenesu lol i mean, the guy has a thing for engineering. He certainly got to the point i'm at now a lot faster than I did lol. Been riding coasters since I was 8 and only now at 21 can I name manufacturers and all that stuff
Well, if you've seen him with his mates in Technical Difficulties, he's definitely talked about roller coasters before.
@@KamenracerX yes! I hope he makes more videos in the future about coasters. I'd love seeing him document all of his first rides on coasters. That'd be so cool.
Yes! I was really excited to see his Alton Towers video because I knew that he'd enjoy the enthusiast side of things once he got over his fear.
Tom Scott: "I'm bad at improvisation"
Also Tom Scott: had an improvisation comedy troupe
The more you learn the more you realize how little you know
Seeing nilered and tom scott in the same video is about as surreal as it gets
yup
The world has healed
NileRed should walk Tom Scott through a chemical reaction on Tom Scott Plus
Somewhere, in an alternate universe, The Backyard Scientist joins Gary, Matt and Chris for a very interesting Citation Needed…
Yes, that would be something special
I think Hyce and the 3/4 Idiot's Citation needed episodes is about what that would be like, but for trains. Still very entertaining though.
Gonna be honest, normally this podcast is just a background thing for me. With Tom on it, you've got my full attention. Years of watching his videos has taught me that everything he says is interesting. Well, unless it's on technical difficulties
I got all my knowledge about Finland from Tom! 🤣
You don’t like techdiff ? It’s a masterpiece
@@dkaloger5720 Or it doesn't teach them 😁
@@dkaloger5720 oh no, I definitely do. I just see Tom in a different role there. He's not the centre piece, but just a part of the whole thing.
Yep, I usually listen audio-only, but this one’s got me on the CZcams.
For those interested, the shape of a looping is a clothoid mirrored at 180° , also called a teardrop shape. If the looping would be perfectly round the inert nature of your head and body would put extreme sudden forces on your neck because your direction of momevent changes so suddenly. With the clothoid the radius increases over time so it's way easier on your head and neck.
Little info from a big huge rollercoaster nerd 👀🙏🏻
Everyone would have experienced it when they drive on a highway or ride a train going at speed, because the curves on both are built with the same principle. The curve radius goes from infinite and gradually down to the target radius, then back out towards infinity. On an otherwise straight-arc-straight construction the normal force at the tangent points would be sudden and enormous.
No coaster nerd here, but I would assume it's not the problem with acceleration, but rather the jerk, or rate of change of acceleration, either that or the next derivative
Wha- how is your commect have a slidebar on it?
Vox made a video about this 2 weeks ago if anyone wants a bit more details
@@mfaizsyahmi And when this principle is not applied you can really feel the difference as you slide off your seat when going too fast :x
The fact that Tom knew what the words "Caillou Hentai" were referring to sort of terrifies me...
Caillou is a children's tv show.
@@noahmay7708 Yes. Please read the comment again.
@@taylordcraig if you exist on the internet for any meaningful amount of time you're going to know what that word means whether you like it or not. And seeing as Tom has existed on CZcams longer than like 90 some odd percent of people who have relatively large channels, there is no way he doesn't know what that means
I think he says "kaiju hentai" though.
@@tuomasronnberg5244 fairly confident he doesn't since the other thing is a running joke on the web
Omg Tom Scott, that's the collab we were not expecting, but definitely needed
ث
I know right lol. Do you think he knew what he was getting himself into lol
@@randomizer3024 three balls in a cup
@@elchampion7834 Oh absolutely. Watch the old video with him, Will and Michael in it, it's a riot
Just imagine seeing someone like Collin Furze next :)
Tom's explaining what being a programmer is like, without mentioning he's a programmer.
if you think by bringing Tom Scott you will finally make me watch 1 hour of William, Alan & Nile, you're damn right.
never watched a podcast of safe third, but with tom scott in it. how could you not ??
This is the collaboration I never realised I needed. It's kinda surreal seeing Tom Scott with Safety Third.
I know he's done collaborations with William Osman and Michael Reeves before, but... O_O
he collaborated with reeves??
@@skoovee it was actually on William's Channel
@@skoovee czcams.com/video/7ZK_fnS62Lk/video.html
@@skoovee that was driving a car but with the windscreen boarded up and driver can only watch a monitor displaying a camera feed with a delay ("A Car Designed To Make You Sick") - it was the three of them; I don't think Tom did one with just Reeves.
@@lexicron I dont think he could either. Michael are too chaotic
“I have a second channel where I bounce off of people”. That is an understatement and a half: Tom Scott Plus, Matt and Tom, Tech Diff
I think he was referencing Tom Scott Plus and not Tech Diff
Flip-flap railway, turra coo... If you know, you know
I think that Matt and Tom is a fairly dead channel now. They've moved all that stuff to Tech Diff.
@@qwertyTRiGRIP Park Bench.
@@PsRohrbaugh I do miss the park bench. Especially bangers such as "Tom, what's wrong with your hair?" and the public apology.
5:30 - "What's your take on Caillou hentai?"
Not even 6 mins in and I'm already wheezing. XD
I have POTS and the way Tom describes passing out and having to use a g-strain maneuver to avoid this is very similar to the syncopes and convulsions I experience just from standing up! Only difference is that I remember the space in-between in a vague manner. I know it's happening beforehand, and I know it happened as I come back into consciousness, but the in-between is different. It starts as nothing, every semblance of thought is suddenly gone, there's nothing but existential static, like your soul left your body. Then you start to come back, first as feelings, then images, dreams, thoughts, and finally you wake up as your hearing and vision fades back in along with the rest of your senses, leaving you confused for only a moment.
if i had a nickel for each time there was a william osman tom scott collab, i'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice.
*it only happened twice
doofenschmirtz
@@dietznuts8106 “It’s” can be a contraction of “it has.” The original commenter’s use of the word is correct. “It’s weird that it’s happened twice.” = “It is weird that it has happened twice.”
@@theEduEnthusiast ah sht, sorry if it came out like i was actually correcting them. i was just jokingly correcting them that it's not weird that big willy and tom collab'd but that it's weird that they only collab'd twice when they should've collab'd more, not that i'm forcing them to tho
@@dietznuts8106 Ahhh, I see - thanks for clarifying! 😊
I have never been more excited for a podcast
Agreed
@Don't Read My Profile Photo Ok.
@Don't Read My Profile Photo dog sex
@Don't Read My Profile Photo "don't do this: don't subscribe to the channel" double negative, therefore you are telling people to subscribe to the channel, but you are also telling people to not go far enough to subscribe to channel
I always think "How can I get myself to watch 50+ minutes of this?" and end up just sitting all the way through without finding it boring at any point. Especially when there's a guest I like.
It's so funny how Tom has become a total roller coaster aficionado after seeing the multiple videos where he simply couldn't handle that sort of thing before
I'd love to see you guys getting more of the "serious" science and education CZcamsrs on the podcast. Like Matt Parker, Steve mould, or Brady Haran.
MATT PARKER!
MATT PARKER!
Serious. Matt Parker. Chose one
Imagine they got The EEV Blog guy
@@EMAHGERD omg can you picture him sharing a camera with Explosions and Fire or I did a thing
Derek from Veratasium!!! (idk how to spell it)
"Oh no, I'm not getting tricked into a personal interview again!"
"How do you feel about Caillou hentai?
"So, the secret to posting a video every week..."
So tilt-shift lenses have two separate functions, tilt and shift. You can also get lenses that just do one or the other.
For photographing buildings without the perspective distortion it's the shift part that's important, not the tilt. What you do is *not* point up at the building. You keep the camera level, pointing horizontally forward so the sensor is vertical. That means any vertical lines in the scene like the edges of the building will appear parallel.
The shift function shifts the lens relative the camera, but for this it's easier to think of it as shifting the camera relative to the lens. So you simply shift the camera down, and because the image is upside down inside the camera that means you crop out the bottom of the photo and you start to see more of the top of the building.
It's exactly equivalent to having a camera with a bigger sensor, or a with a wider angle lens, and cutting off the bottom of the picture later.
Tom should be brought in as a host for sure, he fits perfectly, adds a lot of context from outside of the US, is both old and young at the same time for some reason and is generally smart and knowledgeable. It was a really good episode and should've been longer!
I'm happy that everyone got a chance to be on Tom's podcast!
11:28 william is talking about recovering from mistakes like it's a jazz solo, that was such a good way to think about improv
I absolutely love Tom’s work but seeing him here is a bit like seeing the the President at a frat party. It shockingly worked and was super entertaining but definitely a wait, what moment when I saw the title
these are the only exact combination of 4 adult men that i would listen to talk about rollercoasters for 15 minutes
Knowing that Tom Scott is now a rollercoaster nerd makes me very happy
Rollercoaster tycoon
love how tom scott is an expert on the first looping railway cause of that citation needed episode
Yeah true
I want to see a version of all Nile Red videos where the intro is him talking for 15-30 minutes about the relatively simple project
It's hilarious how quickly Tom became a rollercoaster nerd with Opinions™.
I was playing fall guys, and I had a playlist on, it's set. This comes on and I hear Tom Scott, Nile red, and William Orman. I kept listening till I realised it came out 1 day ago. This is like a dream come true.
Tom would be the last person I'd expect to show up on this podcast, lmao
It was just a matter of time but it's still mind melting
Given enough time it was an eventuality
This has got to be one of the best crossovers ever
When Tom started to talk about the Robo Coaster in Legoland I instantly flashed back to my childhood experience hanging upside down for 20 minutes because of that exact E-Stop malfunktioning for the one I was in. The one arm that caused the stop to be activated because of my sister who was sitting next to me starting to cry and wanting to get off. With ours being the only one that got stuck and all the others going back into disembarking psosition. Suffice to say it was not a fun experience and my sister definitely did not get off as quickly as she wanted, or as she would have if the did not start shouting for it to stop.
ALLEN you DO NOT ask Tom Scott about hentai of a children's show! Especially within the first 5 minutes!! OMG IM DYING 🤣
The Mom was pretty hot.
5:32 for the curious ones here...
I'm guessing that whenever Allen is asking someone something they dont want to talk about he immediately asks them about that to force them to choose.
As a passenger terminal X-ray operator, the 3D X-ray scanners are cause for great jealousy. I’ve tried some of them (they’re not all Analogic, by the way; all the big players have models, from Rapiscan and Smiths to things like Nuctech) and they’re a bloody joy. Some of them actually allow you to virtually separate out individual objects, which is just incredible to experience.
and a total invasion of privacy
Far less so than searching bags manually. Yes, it's a limited concession of privacy in the interests of safety - but it's one passengers agree to when they choose to travel.
@@maevekirkland9452 I'd much prefer having my bag checked with a 3d x-ray than being searched because I left headphones or something in there.
@@awmperry except it doesn’t even make it safer
@@Brent-jj6qi Having a certain insight into the process, I suggest we agree to disagree on that. :-)
Oh man tom started talking about the slippery slope of film and i sad chuckled as i looked over to my two rolls of film drying hanging from my cealing and my darkroom enlarger sitting in my bedroom 😂
40:40 Whenever roller coasters come up, I immediately think of my unpleasant experience riding Drachen Fire at Busch Gardens. I never thought about who built it, so I looked it up, sure enough, Arrow Dynamics.
"Tennessee Tornado" at Dollywood is the only good Arrow Dynamics ride I've ridden. Super comfortable, no headbanging, no janky transitions. Watch a POV of it on CZcams it's got a really good layout, and it's a terrain coaster.
drachen fire is a special breed, generally known as the roughest coaster arrow ever made, Nessie is a decent representation of arrow coasters but maybe a bit smoother than usual.
Tilt shift is also cool for making things look macro. Good example is the intro to BBC's Sherlock. The city shots look like miniatures.
tom is always a joy to listen to. every time he speaks i feel compelled to listen. he’s so eloquent and manages to make everything sound more interesting.
finally got me to watch one of these with tom. i like what all three of the other creators do, but itd never been enough to watch an hour long podcast about nothing till now
I hope one day Tom Scott is more comfortable with the idea that many people are fans of him, or at least how they perceive him
"I have two videos (of me being a sad man on camera)"
Yeah, "I'm done" and "My house burned down" god damn
Arrow, older Vekoma, Gerstlauer, and to some extent Intamin have reputations for roughness, sometimes punishing roughness. New Vekomas and RMCs are super smooth, as are some B&Ms but some older B&Ms do rattle a bit. Mack triangle track coasters are generally quite smooth too.
That feeling on roller-coasters that tom was scared of, that's the felling I love about anything that gets your adrenaline going: roller-coasters, bungee jumping, white water rafting, etc
There's a simple reason that as technology advances, things often seem to get worse: It's insanely complicated. Not like 'oh its kinda tricky.' More like... we're essentially operating a 500 mile by 500 mile wide abacus made of rice grains with chopsticks. From the moon. It is frankly absurd that computers work at all. Even a cheap computer contains more parts than any other device ever built by mankind. The only other devices with more parts contain CPUs as one of their parts. There are billions of transistors packed into a square inch or so, flipping their states billions of times per second, and if only ONE of them isn't in PERFECT synchrony with every single other one, the entire thing immediately crashes and comes to a complete halt. We can't even program them directly any more. Even if we write in assembly, the code is translated and re-ordered and split across different execution units and unpredictably run alongside other code we've never seen, stopped at any time and restarted possibly years later, attached to devices that didn't even necessarily exist at the time of manufacture or code authoring. The CPUs also have undocumented instructions, and sidecar 'management engine' processors that can dive into its inner workings and modify things regardless of what state your code expects. And we let USERS touch the damn things! It's an absolute miracle that even something like Minesweeper works most of the time.
Oh, and we let these things operate cars and critical societal infrastructure.... while also having not one single standard or licensing requirement or education requirement at all required by any company. Toyota, which turned out firmware in their cars that killed a dozen people (just in the US), didn't even give their developers a bug tracker. They didn't have version control. Automotive code has 90+ practices which are considered 'suggested' or 'recommended' by the automotive industry (entirely not legal standards, just ad hoc ones). The cost Toyota cars ran followed 4 of them. Out of over 90. And the executives at the company were found not guilty for criminal negligence. Because, as the judge correctly observed, there is exist NO legal standards that the company even could have conceivably violated. You could let middle schoolers slap together a "self driving car" software stack, and unleash it on the public, and there isn't a court in the nation that could convict you of anything. And yet, sometimes... some of it works? HOW?
Also, if you understood what Tom Scott was talking about when he was talking about the 'drop' on a rollercoaster... then you understand what withdrawal from an SSRI is like. People commonly call it the "zaps". I always thought the perfect explanation of it was like when you were a kid and you went on a swing, if you ever looked at the ground as you were swinging down toward it and got that 'rushing' feeling, it is exactly that. Every time your eyes move suddenly. So I would guess that the mechanism for the sensation on rollercoasters is primarily concerned with serotonin, or lack thereof. It is PROFOUNDLY unpleasant to go through and can be quite debilitating.
My prediction, which I am willing to set in the stone of the CZcams comments, is that the first company to get real full self driving to market will be the company that cuts the most corners and doesn't listen to their engineers who say they need more time for testing, and their vehicle will plow into a group of preschoolers or some other extremely sensitive demographic, and it will be the headlines for weeks. Then the court case will be the headlines for months more. And we will get to see just how shoddy their work was, how the engineers begged them not to go to market, how the executives told them to shut up because they didn't understand "the big picture", how there were 4 managers for every 1 software engineer on the project, etc... and then the judge at the end will declare the company not guilty for negligence for the same reason mentioned before. It's flat out not POSSIBLE for a company to be negligent if there is software involved. The public will actually realize what this means this time. And they will demand action immediately. And politicians will oblige them. They will create mandatory licensing requirements, create a big bureaucracy that mandates code standards, and they will be TERRIBLE. Most likely they will mandate use of Java with Design Patterns, since that is one of the worst and most resoundingly failed ways of creating software. It'll be terrible.
I totally agree on the part that computer are flaw machines. The point is, with all the flaws, computer might still be better than human driver, if we are calculating accident rates. The problem being, there are no companies other than big ones willing to hit the product to market, since people will take possible way to reject new stuff they are not comfortable with. Since tesla is doing experiment on some scale, I think we should just wait and see the test results.
I get your point about there being no regulation yet on safety systems required in software. But cpus and stuff working is not a miracle. It's engineering. It's because of all these people designing stuff in ways to be useable for others to design their own stuff on top of it that we can all work with stuff while not knowing all the little things going in the background. You don't need to be fully aware of how RAM cycles the transistors to keep sure that every 1 stays a 1 and every 0 stays a 0 alongside all the consistency checks. You just need to know how to write a series of 1s and 0s to a spot where you can get that string back when needed. You just need to know the life expectancy and calc that expectancy in how you use it (aka make backups at appropriate times and replace stuff). It's not a miracle that you can use this the way it was designed for people to use. Store data, retrieve data and make sure the stored data has a very small possibility of changing state when it isn't needed. Then you just build out. When people encounter stuff they didn't like how it was designed, they'll redesign it. etc etc

@@emenesu read, if you want to. If you're not interested enough, skip.
What is said, is being said. All of it. Requesting a summary is annoying at best.
Also... it's a you tube comment, not a book. It's short by default.
The thing about that stomach dropping feeling is that to me that's what I ride the coasters for. Maybe I still just want to be afraid, but I love that rush and I keep my eyes open the entire ride on any coaster.
Wait that is Tom Scott in the Trash Taste US studio, that could mean cool things
That's not Trash Taste, it's Garbage Flavor!
@@TanelM yes but that is also recorded here
I was thinking the same thing, but then it occurred to me that I have no idea what they'd talk about. But it would be glorious. Actually, it'd be fucking amazing to have Tom host a special episode of Citation Needed with Trash Taste, I just don't know if they'd have the chemistry.
@@ThomasWinget Theyre talked to every type of person, dont think chemistry would be a factor
@@simonji2940 I maybe phrased that poorly. What I mean is that Tom, Chris, Gary, and Matt have a certain chemistry together that works well for the Citation Needed format and I don't know if that would work with Tom + Trash Taste. I'm sure they'd get on well enough for a podcast episode.
Just discovered the Safety Third podcast this weekend, can't believe I've slept on it for this long as an engineer. You guys are awesome!
nile and tom are both really great at speaking. allen and william are funny and chaotic. ABSOLUTLEY perfect podcast
This is so much better than talking about CZcams for an hour. Thank you Tom
I absolutely love this. I have watched all of you independantly for years, Tom, Nigel, William and Alan you are all so damn inspiring, and keep me trying new things and being creative. Thank you for all you do.
It's amazing how much parts of this sounds like Citation Needed or The Park Bench even though Tom is just a guest.
Rollercoaster do get worse as you get taller, as there is more leverage on your back being applied by the gforce as you go around bends and unfortunately many don't support the back in those lateral Gs
The title is exactly what I'd expect from this episode haha
Has Cody been asked onto safety third? He's bound to have loads of interesting stories
Yes he's been asked and declined
@@simvalue that's sad, i really wanted to hear from him.
Well that's a shame
Allen Pan's shirt says "テレサ" (Teresa) which is the name for a Super Mario Boo in Japan. In case anyone was wondering like I was.
Listening to you guys talking about Magic Mountain, which is in my city, was nostalgic as my family would go there every summer, sometimes with friends.
Tom's transformation into a total coasterhead just makes me happy. :D
That stomach drop feeling was my favorite and why I originally loved roller coasters but now that I’ve ridden so many I almost never get it anymore

The room fills with tension, everyone struggles not to say “Caillou Hentai”
