Half as Interesting thaaht soondz
Make a video about Brlliant!
"Is this spelling error a security feature?"
"It is now."
That what I would have said, tbh...
It's not a bug, it's a feature!
Sounds about right for Australia.
Heckerz Minecraft Videoz
1. Chill
2. It’s a typo. I meant to say ‘sounds about RIGHT for australia.’
Fixed it.
That_ Dude
I had a stroke when typing it so I straight up didn’t put in ‘right’.
I love how he snuck typos everywhere in the video

I am so disappointed. You, the king of terrible segues, must have known that the only sponsor for a video like this would have been Grammarly.
Grammarly seems dumb to me. Every time I see the ad I think, "This is dumb. Is that really their ad campaign? Y'all just bad at this language."
Is it just me? Am I just a precocious ass?
@@zyaicob Maybe you are, but I myself use it because I'm not an English professor that knows the all the hidden nooks and crannies and obscure rules of the English language that get graded.
I was anticipating it the whole time and then he says brilliant
I have to disagree. The sponsor he chose for this video was brilliant.
David Fan haha
Not gonna lie, I thought the intro was another attempt to not draw attention from the government again.
Mathtron 5000, I’d just re-watched the Janet Airlines Video before this one, what a coincidence
nonono- he uses bricks for that.
Same
Same
One day we'll have enough false segments for a complete HAI video on bricks
You can't really blame Austraila. They had to read Upsid-Dowm.
Ther r some secrr typos
Yeah but that's the way we've learned to read . It's only when we go to the northern hemisphere that its hard to read.
umop-ap!sdn
@Ethan Canlas it was a typo on purpose
@@chonkydog6262 you did good to try and explain it but i hardly doubt he got the joke. You probably didn't try to say the joke so i'll do it myself
It is an intentional Typo.
I actually wanted to hear about the Royal Albert Hall.
I did to a little, lol
i want to hear about the Royal Ablert Hall
I want to hear about how they learned how many holes it takes to fill it.
The problems with its sound quality which had to be fixed wouldn't even make a bad hai video
Thats not apart of the channel. Its half as interesting not interesting
The amount of people pointing out things that were spelled wrong, and not realizing that everything was spelled wrong as a joke, make me fear for the future.
At least some folks still have some sense of humor :)
Them correcting it, is a joke in itself.
To be fair, he definitely ran the joke into the ground
@@SharpWits2013 you must be new here
It was a dumb joke, especially for proper names (Cowen/Cowan)
A quarter interesting fact: That line of text is actually repeated several times in the micro font so technically there are 2-3 typos on each note.
Source: Am Australian, inspected the $50 note myself - can confirm. 👍🏼
RIP
So basically between 92-138 Million typos
#oof
The first time I've seen the 'trust me, I'm an X' quote used unironically, and successfully.
So they DID have copy-paste ATEOTD.
There was actually a typo in the dictionary entry for the abbreviation of density. It was supposed to say "D or d" but ended up saying "Dord". Whether it got printed 46 million times is unclear, but it managed to become a valid abbreviation for density for some time.
He actually made a video about this just a couple of days ago: czcams.com/video/9dbL_avoT2g/video.html
He must’ve seen your comment lol
@@pewdjepje4466 yessssss
Now that's dense!
Did you get that from Vsauce?
3:10 I love how you say an Aussie “A” so subtly
I love all the deliberate misteaks in this! My favourite of all though is where you put "shrimp" instead of "prawn"
you mean to say. infraorde Caridea
I love how you made your own mistake too lol 😂😂
Is there a difference bietwien dooz 2 birdspieziez then?? 😉😁
This comment has me proud and sore from the joke

It's not a typo, it's just their accent.
This is Barris! - French History you know it
@Wolpertinger Hey man! Glad to see you here.
There are no typos, just happy accidents
?
Legit reason
I just took a 50 out of my wallet to see if I had a misspelled one that writing is so tiny I’m surprised anyone picked up the error. I gave up trying to read it 🤷♀️
You’ll need a magnifying glass. Some people collect bank notes and inspect every aspect of it.
@@molly.dog8brooke792 Wait what?
@@JatPhenshllem ?? Bank note collection is pretty common… like not the most widely known hobby, but yeah, quite a few people collect banknotes and inspect every aspect of it under a magnifying glass (or even a microscope), lights, UV lights, and other techniques! There’s a channel that specializes it in. Forget it’s name, but should be easy enough to find with “bank notes collection specialist” or some variation thereof if you’re interested!
Edit: I was thinking of Half Asleep Chris!
@@molly.dog8brooke792 Everyone should own a magnifying glass, or better yet a clip-on magnifier for your phone camera for when you think you have stumbled across a rare insect outside the pub after several pints of Carlsberg.
@@molly.dog8brooke792 more than a magnifying glass I think! I have 6 zoom glasses, I can't read it with them, I had to get my 20 zoom eye piece to be able to see it! (I have them for doing tissue culture work & cause I was fascinated that my baby carnivore plant had black dots on it when it was only about 2mms in size & they appeared to be bugs - they were bugs, "springtails" plant was less than a week old, too small to even see beyond a dot & it was already catching food!!!!!!!!
I’m so sad I didn’t get to learn about halls
So, when's hall as interesting becoming real?
When half as interesting will upload a video about bricks
I want both

I only want interesting as hell
need the brick video
I'm just surprise they didn't typo the Reserve Bank of Australia as the Reverse Bank of Australia
i had to use a difference checker for this
It took me like 15 secs to see that
Im from Australia i dont get it
I just keep spelling Australia as Austraila god damn it
@@c.g.5580 was hard to find
Little factoid: David Unipon, a Ngarrindjerri man, was considered the Aboriginal Da Vinci. He wasn’t just a published author - he invented the first electric shears. The black swan is his (and my) tribal totem. The church also pictured on the bill is the Raukkan Church, which used to be a mission. Raukkan is still a wonderful Aboriginal community, now host to a museum, the church still hosts funerals of Ngarrindjerri people to this day. 💖
As an Australian, I've still not seen one of these new $50 notes up close, let alone noticed the typo.
I love the fact that they apparently printed one the size of a table cloth and hung it on a wall so that it could be checked for errors, and even then they still missed it.
Not enough autistic staff, I guess. 😅
is the giant note legal tender? i hope so
@@The_Blazement half size is at the bank's discretion. Apparently if you intentionally iron or put the notes into the oven so as to turn them into those kids shrink art toys, the bank has the right to declare your shrinking as intentional damage to the note & refuse to accept it, I wonder if the jumbo size note is the same
lol i didn't realize that edith cowEn was a "typo" so when he showed the bank note i thought they had mispelled her name
i saw that too lmao
@Epic Polandball and geography fan U have *_taste_*

"How Australia printed a typo 46 million times." That's it. I've finally found the perfect metaphor for my life.
I love how he put a lot of typos in this video. That's interesing.
That’s 💯percent interesting unlike 50percent interesting as usual
Hey
Half as interesting*
Another great video from Half-Ass-Interesting.
Oh, sorry, I meant "as".
They should be called that after this video
Wendover: *Planes*
HAI: *Australia*
I’m an Australian and I remember this on the news XD
they were all complaining about the mistake and so they had to change a lot of them and re-print them.
I’m taking my first college class this year and I signed up for Sinclair and misspelled my first name
"I hear computers are quite the thing now" ?
Damn, you must have quite some sources there...
I read your comment at the same time he said it.
How in the world do I almost ALWAYS read quotes in the comments sections just as, right before, or right after the person speaking said it. I have a hidden talent
2:57
"MAY 2091"

happy 2002!
I am dyslexic so isolated word recognition is both a blessing and a curse.
The typos in this vid freaked me out😂😂😂
As an Australian, just by reading the thumbnail, I know exactly what this is about
Hahaha gg government
same reason why i watched this just to make sure i was right
LMFAO
Yeah
Back when I was in school (hundred years ago) we found a miss spelled word in our spelling book. I remember it when it happen. This kid (I forget who) was asked stand up and spell a word and they did. Only to be told wrong by the teacher which then got 'corrected' by the whole class. When she checked the books (she went to every desk) and seen the way it was spelled she was confused. After checking with other teachers and books it was found out the book was wrong. It was so funny.
Democracy is a powerful tool when used effectively.
Hundred years ago? How old are you
Infuriating that you post such an anecdote but can’t remember the word. It’s like saying “I was at a wedding and the priest said something really, really funny.”
@@albertbatfinder5240 I am 55 I was like 15 when that happened. I am lucky I can remember what I ate for breakfast or if I even did eat breakfast now days.
Haha.
As an Australian, my mum found an article on Facebook about this typo. I squinted, had a look, and there it was! :)
geez you've got good eyes! Wonder if I could do that when I was younger, before developing the need for reading glasses. NO WAY I could dream of doing that now!
The word _responsibility_ is misspelled in three instances on the $50 note, 46 million of which were printed, so the typo actually occurs 138 million times.
A lot of microprint security features actually include intentional typos specifically for the purpose of catching fakes.
at least that's what they're telling us
This claim requires evidence...
@Half as Interesting you missed a brilliant opportunity to misspell Brililant
This was probably done on purpose but at 1:47 they show her name being "Edith CowEn" but in the note it's clearly "Edith CowAn"
Edit: Fukc me I just noticed that the typos are evrywhere and on prupose so never mind this
Hey, HAI, I really like you're videos. Keep up the goof work!
0:31 Gotta love those intentional typos
RBA guys: *Missed the typo in every division*
Letter I: I'm the invisible man
I watched this for the first time last week. I wathced it for like the 25th tmie toda. This is the most humerus vdieo yet! Kep up th goood werk.
I actually really want _Hall as Interesting_ to be a thing. I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THESE HALLS!!!
What about bricks? I need to know more about bricks!
Just get 47 million views on this video and it will be the most circulated typo of all time.
Mr yeast could do it
This video is full of typo easter eggs, love it!
Maybe if we take the missing letter from every misspelling, there might be a hidden message.
@@RaymondHng There are extra letters too
I love your videos, keep me entertained on my commute to work! 👍😂
3:11 Deaf people: Wow I didn't know 18000 years had already passed!
Poor Australia they printed all their money upside down
Real shame, isn't it?
Making it upside up.
The horror.

They even played football with the ball upside down. Jesus.
@@gkid64
Relax, take a chill pill. Or if you can't take a chill pill, get one of those chill strips. Rip one off, stick it on your tongue and chill...
Besides, we're not upside down. The rest of the world is. Seriously, how do they not fall off the Earth?
Great video as always, but for future reference from an Australian, 4:29 should say "prawns". Shrimp is just an american thing i think
Yeah that was just another of his deliberate erors
this a cliché Austrialian English reference from this 1980s ad czcams.com/video/1_FyJug3wzU/video.html
Om nom nom
I've lived in Australia my whole life, it's shrimp if you're cooking it (y)
@@TC_exe I am 6th generation Australian... i have only ever heard it referred to as shrimp by Americans, or when Australians are mocking Americans.
Shrimp is almost always used to refer to prawn-like crustaceans that are too small to be eaten.
4:17 it says 'yuo sohlud scubsirbe to hlaf as itnerestnig'
@0:40 I would watch your episodes even if they were much longer!
2091, how long did i sleep 2:57
wait now it's 200061

I like how you talked about typos, but then there is a big one in 2:35 haha
That’s the joke

i actually would like to see hall as interesting
The amount of tyos made on purpose in this vudeo is physically hruting me. I'm litteraly getting convuksions right niw.
Good for you for sticking with the courage of your convuksions.
The misspellings! Ahhh my eyes. I actually read every misspelled word and it hurts.o
love it ! I love the humoristic mistakes, like 1816, Marinara and Huose !
there's also text printed tiny to make up the branches behind the swan. on this note it's a speech from edith cowan, but the 5 dollar note has an explanation of the levels of government, which my year 5 self quickly realised and carried it everywhere. weirdly convenient for studying.
hmm do they ban carrying money into exams?
I actually looked at the chanel name to check if it wasn't 'hall as interesting'
'You fool! You have fell for one of the classic blunders!'
it's actaully spelled "channel"
Sean Hardy r/whoosh
@@mrpw1402 r/WHOOSH, yuo must've msised my typo :p
That is so funy
Gonna need that new Hall As Interesting channel.
God damn you. I'm new to the channel, and I was getting excited about the Royal Albert hall thing.
I was about to go looking for the hall of morriors video.
“what i love about skillshare is the way the pay me “
Technically by the common usage rules of the English language "Responsibilty" is now the correct spelling of the word in Australian English.
The correct spelling in California English is "responsabilidad" ...
Typos don't count as common usage; people would have to start spelling it that way deliberately, in a variety of contexts.
@@AzrgExplorers
That'll be left to judgment... judgement?
Seriously, my spellchecker tells me that judgment is incorrect... and I'm using the U.K English dictionary...
It’s English, ur English is called fake English

Omg! I am Australian and I remember when I first heard of this a few weeks before watching I almost rolled around on the floor in class crying!
Now I'm going to check every $50 note that comes into my possession
Missed an opportunity to say "This is Half as Interesting, the show about airplanes"
I do not get it
ULTIMATE SUPERCHARGE ANIMS check the channel and count the videos about planes lol
The Wendover guy might have something to say about that... so I guess he's playing it safe by not mentioning that fact.
The typo was the word "Australia" cuz it doesn't exist
Dolleridoo, oh man that's a good one.
Gotta tuck that away for someday when I visit Australia...
I saw this way back when they first got released. I bought 25 of them, just waiting on the collector’s value to sky rocket then will sell at a premium. There’s still tons out there so you can go but some for yourself!
You made this Half as Interesting episode half of the normal quality by beating the shit out of that typo gag
Beat the shit out of it, and put it in intensive care.
Australia: **exists**
HAI: I'm about to end this country's reputation
He needs to apologise to this great nation
There is a form the U.S. Army uses a lot, and which had a typo when I was in the Army in the early 1980s. If memory serves, it was a DA Form 2404, used every time a maintenance inspection is done on equipment. I don't know whether 46 million forms were printed, but it was certainly a lot. The error was "scepify" or something like it, instead of "specify." The form would have been corrected by now,
you sure it's corrected? I mean you STILL haven't switched to metric or polymer money
I love how you incuded all those typos in this video

This is definitely the most bizarre video, I'm having a headache right now
I always used to spell "Australia" as "Austrailia." It wasn't until I started watching HowToBasic videos and reading his comment sections that I realized my errors.
Legitimately disappointed that "Hall as interesting" isn't an actual channel.
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one that was actually here for hall as interesting
🤣 "The Chick-fil-a cows..." I love it!
The typo gimmick was funny for like.. 3 typos
1:46 Dedicates a whole video to a typo misspelling Edith Cowan as Edith Cowen
yes, he meant to do that ok. its the JOKE of the video...
Because the rest of his video ideas are about planes
*quickly grabs my magnifying glass and tries to see if my only fifty has that typo*
I would 100% buy another monitor + hang it in my office running 'Hall as Interesting' vids continuously.
I love the typos hidden throughout. '17th cetnury londoners'
Edit: yunno when autocorrect works the one time you don't want it to
There's typos hidden in practically every word of this video
@@3User Yeah lol
I love how at the start the subtitles have their own -tygos- typos ❤
PS: They are more typos in the subtitles!
What 1978 Commodore are they using that doesn't have a cut and paste option AND doesn't have a spell check?.
Hahaha, that random beeping I was try ou ng to locate all over my room while listening to this happened to just be a weird beep in the background music😂
If any Australian reading this finds a note with the code starting with AA18, keep it, because they may be the only ones to really increase in value as they were the first ones printed.
Thanks :)

Did anyone notice HAL featuring the Cologne Frankfurt mix-up from Why Cities Exist by Wendover Production?
Hey dude, not sure you will see this, but I'm LOVING Extremities and I'm really really sad when each episode ends, plz give more
At 0:30 he says "Opened in 1861" but on the screen it says 1816 and if you turn on cations it says 1871.
WHY?
I feel like it’s deliberate. You know. The whole typo thing.
Now i m not even sur if that typo was intended...
Because this video focus about typos, that they intended to misspell all of words that appear.
*captions
@@MisguidedKerbal Nah, that typo fits in with the overall theme
Love your channel! The jokey tone hasn't been for me ever since you started using it, but I didn't mind it too much. I feel like you might start to be overdoing it a little bit. Keep up the great work regardless!
Did you purposely add typos, or did you just not bother to fix the ones you made in a fast-typing day?
I loved this.
