A Stunning Turn of Events

[@sackclothandashes998]

Uhh, John can play an instrument. Did he forget that he is a professional sing-a-ma-jig player?

[@gaubrini]

Amazing to randomly see this comment after the 2020 sing-a-ma-jig saga 5 years later

[@Sindizwe]

I'm so curious about the guy behind John in the plane. He looks so weary of life. Like, what's his story, what is he listening to? Why does he look so sad?

[@Tigermond1]

I like that question. I mean, I like that you think about a guy who just appeared for a few seconds at the end of a video and probably wasn't even nearly seen as a full and complex human being by anybody else watching it. But I would say that you just don't know. You don't know if he's sad (I mean, seriously, he just sits in a plane listening to music - you can't smile all the time, that would be creepy), and you don't know if he's a psycho or the nicest person on the world. But it's interesting to imagine all those possibilities and never told stories.

[@Sindizwe]

Well, I love people watching, I guess this is just people watching in video format. I hope for his sake that he's just listening to a sad song or audiobook.

[@juliehester5626]

Along with him looking sad, he looks kind of tired to me. Or maybe he is having deep questions about existence.

[@thelostnation8625]

He is listening to WTNV

[@uroobatariq389]

maybe he's just listening to a sad song

[@0gracefulgirl0]

My current girlfriend's first ever contact with me was "Does the acronym DFTBA mean anything to you?"

[@Naiadryade]

Ooh, that's a good opening line.

[@CalebHughesTheGingerNinja]

0gracefulgirl0 *Initialism :P Still an awesome opening

[@ViridisArborem]

0gracefulgirl0 Is shipping this allowed?

[@Ultracrepidarian]

0gracefulgirl0 yep, best way to break the ice. one of the best ways, at least.

[@andystanford7117]

0gracefulgirl0 Fantastic!

[@melaniebosley]

I will never be able to properly express the amount of stress I felt watching you try to make it to the plane in time. I though this video was going to end a tragedy, but it was, weirdly, the best thriller I have seen in years.

[@wiet111]

I've been watching too much wimbly womblies. When John said "In a stunning turn of events" I was honestly surprised when he didn't say "It is raining in England" :D

[@BloggedLifeNina]

I love this video because it feels very old school. It's a parts video and it's an airport vidoe and John is just talking to the camera like we're hank, so that's refreshing. This is not to say that I don't love the new stuff, I love the new stuff, but this with its informality seems more intimate, reminds me that there was a time when even though we were a relatively large community still, it was about these two guys just having a relationship with each other. Also by far my favorite part is when John gets on the plane and the guy behind him is clearly uncomfortable for what I'm guessing is a number of reasons.

[@StrayKids_et_al]

VloggedLifeNina Also hearing him discuss French the Llama and nerdfighter like it's nice to hear some of the old school catchphrases coming back into the videos.

[@BloggedLifeNina]

definitely agree. Like even though this isn't a video I would show other people, they're the kind that I go back and rewatch when I get want to rewatch John and Hank.

[@ScaryWombat]

I don't normally comment (heaven knows why) - but I am this time! Because I just wanted to say that today was one of THOSE days. When the banality of life crept up on me, and suddenly nothing seemed quite as awesome as it did yesterday. So, my point is, your video made my day a little more awesome. And for that, John (and fellow Nerdfighters), thank you.

[@ctennyson4697]

John? John Green?! In an airport??!! THIS IS UNHEARD OF

[@Tigermond1]

Are you SURE we're talking about the same John Green? Because the one that I know would never ever go to an airport... Let alone the gray-speckled walls... (And by the way, your user name + picture + comment is like the best combination I've ever seen on KZbin. :D)

[@suki426]

Dobby The llama That is why it titled "A stunning turn of events" :)

[@ctennyson4697]

Tigermond1 Why, thank you! It's a side effect that comes with being a huge nerdfighter XD

[@sunnyangel12]

Imagine sitting at the airport and then...We are paging John Green to board. Chaos results

[@estellet1406]

sunnyangel12 Everyone would run to the gate and he would miss the plane because of the wall of nerdfighters.

[@Neha71580]

There was no way you could make 'Batman is just a rich guy with an affinity for bats' shorter on a shirt :P

[@orangeflame568]

#BIJARGWAAFB

[@OrangeYetti]

I love you all.

[@myworldispretty]

I don't often comment on Vlogbrothers videos anymore, but when I do, I make sure it's when John mentions the CUTEST couple I know. As always, best wishes, John! - Lisette

[@GerdavM91]

myworldispretty I don't even know Jonneke personally (just from your guys' videos) and I knew it was about her, so cuute!

[@thinkfact]

I want to buy your shirt John but I am afraid of people who wont understand the reference whatsoever and strike of random conversations with me asking why I'm wearing a T-shirts hating on specific superheroes. Typically people don't buy a shirt calling out something they don't like. :( You may lose this not because of your position, but rather because on the idea of wearing a shirt that is kind of dissing someone. You guys should make like a poll of some sort afterwards to get a second opinion

[@DayzleGamer]

Think Fact I agree, "we are all bat people" it's simply funny with or without context. "Batman is is the rich guy with an infinity for bats" is a bit of a mouth full and not really as funny. Regardless of whether it's a valid point or not. It could be potentially awkward to wear, as with anything that is dissing something. They should have a poll afterwords for second opinion.

[@Tigermond1]

DayzleGamer I mean that's the thing about being a nerd, isn't it? Also, the shirt gives you great fodder for conversation. :D

[@DayzleGamer]

Tigermond1 I guess you got a point there. I still think they should get a second opinion just for the sake of us being properly represented. Haha Especially considering out everybody has the money or means to purchase a shirt. :)

[@Naiadryade]

Think Fact I think it would have been a lot better if John's shirt said "Crime is not actually caused by evil." That's the stronger point, and the counterpoint to Hank's quote in the chorus.

[@thinkfact]

Naiadryade I agree. Out of John's speech that point I felt hit the hardest.

[@Trotsky1981]

I totally bought the "Batman is just a rich guy with an affinity for bats" shirt. John's argument was the more persuasive of the two. Deconstructing comic book idiocy via a social commentary on institutional failure. I love it. Who's with me?

[@meghanbrown5396]

Same!

[@GKForwhatisworth]

My warmest congratulations to that nerdfighter couple! You just know this marriage will be full of awesome!

[@juststeveschannel]

When I show up at NerdCon, I hope to have a story ready to tell about the strange engagement that resulted between the star-crossed lovers who met and fell in love despite coming from the two warring factions that had developed at VidCon 2015 when the remarkably unwise decision to hold a "GIF Gala" occurred, and huge fights broke out over how it should be pronounced. Hopefully it will be a short story, although it may turn out to be fairly epic. Hopefully.

[@laurendesousa8119]

juststeveschannel Sounds fairly epic already. Also... the "GIF Gala" must be so fancy/fun they had to name it three times....

[@abyssaljam441]

L DeSAG wouldent it be named 4 times " Gif Jif Geyluh Galuh"

[@juststeveschannel]

That would be one proposed solution, of course, but it still devolves into physical combat when they have to decide which pronunciations come first. Taking suggestions for casts in the lead roles for the movie production now, although presumably one of the factions will be lead by Nat Wolff.

[@laurendesousa8119]

But which faction would Nat Wolff lead? That is the major question.

[@abyssaljam441]

Truly it is the question of our generation .

[@nehalyshahpatel7854]

I absolutely love the fact that you are bringing people together, and I think it's awesome that Nerdfighters are meeting and making long-lasting, meaningful relationships.

[@jdftba4164]

Okay, literally I met this girl at Hanks concert last Saturday and she's really cool and she's a dancer and she's super smart and funny and interesting and we've exchanged over 1000 texts in the last few days. Congrats, Hank. Your concert has already caused some blooming nerdfighterlike.

[@AbbeyB77]

I'd rather have "Crime is not actually caused by evil" on a shirt.

[@docnevyn5814]

***** Or Gotham never gets better for long

[@Naiadryade]

Yesss. Either of those would be so much better.

[@saltaloncreative]

***** Beautiful.

[@kareno.2654]

Yes!! I would so buy that one. Personally I agreed more with Johns point but Hanks tshirt is much more catchy.

[@AbbeyB77]

Karen O. That's how I feel too, Hank's point looks so much better on a t-shirt than the one they chose for John's side of the argument even though I agree with John marginally more than Hank

[@amyamyamy17]

thank you for letting us know you made the flight- I was getting worried!

[@SirDoremo]

You wait for your name to be announced for the final boarding call, I also like to live dangerously...

[@YoMamasLlama22]

Watching these videos is just...comforting. They have such rewatchability

[@Shadylikeatree]

It's .gif not fucking peanut butter. GAHHHHHH. "I respect that you've made a decision, but given that it's a stupid ass decision I've elected to ignore it." - Samuel L. Jackson

[@eisbaeraurora]

***** How do you pronounce .jpeg? (please be serious)

[@PaunchyPanda]

***** You know, I read your comment "It's 'jif' " just like the peanut butter so ... win/lose?

[@EliasShaefer]

***** Well the problem is this: The creator of .gif says it is pronounced like the peanut butter, but it is named after Graphics Interchange Format, which the g in graphics has a hard g sound. So if you want to inherent the pronunciation property from graphics it would be gif with a hard g. However, there is no rules of sound inheritance when saying an acronym. Therefore, you can pronounce it as it's own word disregarding how the g in graphics is said, which means it could very well have a soft g sound (or a "j" sound) such as gem, giraffe, giant, gentle, gym, general, etc. Option 1: Pronounce gif with a hard g because graphics has a hard g and the g in gif stands for graphics. Option 2: Pronounce gif with a soft g because the creator says it is pronounced like jif, which grammatically is sound because there are a number of cases that support it and there are no inheritance rules for acronym pronunciation. I choose option 2 personally, because it is both grammatically sound and supported by the creator saying it is pronounced that way. But when it comes down to it, you can say it however. After all, the pronunciation of a file type abbreviation is not worth an argument, especially when both pronunciations are potential valid.

[@TheBlissfullyDandy]

I love how your videos have stayed pretty much the same, with new content. I like consistency.

[@edsterrock]

This was my first Vlogbrothers video. I made a deal to myself on August last year that I would binge watch all of John and Hank Green's videos and I did it within almost a year. I learned so much from Nerdfighteria and I think I am more of an Nerdfighter then ever before. I am also going to see the Green brothers at Vidcon next week. Thank you John and Hank Green for making my last year and a half of homeschooled high school student so much fun and changing my life forever.

[@edsterrock]

And also, thank you John for giving me my own Paper Towns adventure.

[@Gillmojo]

It is so good to have you back, John, being important only to your family and your extended nerdfighter family. Long may it continue indeed ;)

[@youtubeonwheels9390]

Great video! You looked like you had a lot of fun at the gala. Also, your nerdfighter engagement story is awesome! Best wishes to them (and to all nerdfighters). DFTBA!

[@erikastaiger2576]

Plot twist: the guy behind John in the last shot of the video is actually Dave Green.

[@daniellebletso6390]

We're going to a gala gala. The party so nice they named it twice..freaking love.

[@williamwhitworth4241]

Your videos make me smile, even the sad ones. Thank you.

[@PrincessaAnastasiya]

I miss being in an airport and people watching and catching glimpses of accents from foreign places and airport coffee and floor to ceiling windows and suitcases and the crackling excitement of being in translation and going places and getting boarding calls. I hope you have an awesome time at the gala :)

[@ProfessorPuppet]

Ooo! First Class. You must still be in the top 110. 115 at the outside. If Rand Paul gives you any guff, just tell him his hair looks silly.

[@Popculturehero11]

No matter whose side you are on there is no denying that the songified version of the argument was amazingly catchy.

[@ImaginaryLibrarian]

The videos have had a very old-school vlogbrothers feel to them lately and idk that just makes me really happy

[@hoosierhiver]

I always look for John when I'm at Indy airport.

[@EcoCurious]

Can I just be the person that says: John and Hank are looking rather buff lately. :P

[@Nerd502]

ChirrupForScience OMG, girl. Literally thought the same in the first 5 seconds of the video XD

[@EcceJack]

Buff? How do you mean, buff? ChirrupForScience

[@EcoCurious]

EcceQuomodoMoritur00 They're looking a bit handsome ;)

[@treycoook]

ChirrupForScience Regular haircuts can do wonders.

[@rparl]

EcceQuomodoMoritur00 Usually, buff means a well developed musculature, w/o significant (visible) adipose tissue. But maybe that's just how I would use it. OTOH, “When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean-neither more nor less.”

[@eisbaeraurora]

John, please consider singing your songified Batman argument with Hank.

[@DartmouthProductions]

YES!!! I would love that. It might be early in the year to say it but it might be for me the best song of 2015.

[@MiddleAgedNerd]

Eisbaer Borealis We need a duet. I formally request a "Battle of the Batman opinions" singing duet.

[@justmethatsfine5688]

According to vlogbrothers' law, John is not allowed to sing. It is a punishable offense and exceptions are made only by majority vote of the citizens of Nerdfighteria. Anyone wanna call a formal vote?

[@MiddleAgedNerd]

Lauren Cress I thought I already did? ***** I second.

[@justmethatsfine5688]

+Middle Aged Nerd *ahem* unfortunately, bureaucracy demands formality even within Nerdfighteria 😟 Your lack of the terms "Nerdfighteria" and "vote" invalidated your request 😞 It is a cryin shame that even the government of such a utopian society as Nerdfighteria is constrained by these antiquarian rules. 😏

[@noellethomas8340]

Glad you made your flight, John :D I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE TOUR TO COME TO PHILLY TOMORROW!!!!

[@TaylorJohnsonvideo]

I think the guy behind John on the plane is trying so hard not to look or move or show the great confusion he's feeling towards the guy filming himself in front of him.

[@RithSV]

Anyone else think "it is raining here in England" after reading the title?

[@aliciapaglia9440]

Yup

[@NylahK]

Simon Vin YES but then I looked out the window and I was like but... it's actually really sunny in England!

[@katiehusband1505]

But in the most stunning turn of events, it's not raining here in England (at least in London anyway)

[@Gillmojo]

Simon Vin Hasn't rained in my part of England for at least a week, and probably more. Everything is sunshine all the way :)

[@WulfTrax]

Simon Vin This video is severely lacking in derogatory comments about Kennedy's hairstyle.

[@FactsAtYourFingertips123]

John, you have definitely increased in significance. Time's 100 is too mainstream anyway!

[@wonder_platypus8337]

I think it's incredible you guys have this long record of your lives.

[@pianofluteflute]

John, you are a wonderful person!

[@KaijaSchmauss]

It's probably for the best Rand Paul doesn't know who you are. I get the feeling he'd be extremely offended by the "I'm Rand Paul's date" joke.

[@moonkenzie]

***** He *really* would. Whenever folks start talking about him, I raise my hands and say, "I didn't vote for him!"

[@rparl]

moonkenzie There's an ongoing joke in several of the Vorkosigan Saga books about the President of one of the planets. Every time his name comes up someone says, "He's OK, but I didn't vote for him." The implication is that NO ONE voted for him but they put up with him because (a) they don't realize that there is massive vote fraud and (2) he's not bad enough to protest and (gamma) they think everyone else DID vote for him.

[@KaijaSchmauss]

moonkenzie Yeah, I've been reading up on him because he's running for president and... Yeah. There's no way in hell I'm voting for that guy.

[@KaijaSchmauss]

Ross Parlette I sometimes wonder if that was the case with Michelle Bachmann. I'm from Minnesota, and literally no one, not even the most conservative republicans I know, liked her. We all consider her an embarassment to the state. Yet we voted her in for multiple terms.

[@xxSharpSide]

***** In cases like this I say 'they voted' not 'we'. I'm not claiming and part of that stupid decision. ;)

[@osu45d]

This reminds me of your(John's) commencement speech at Butler University where he asked the students to think for a minute of all the people who the students who helped them to get to that point. He then went on to say that very few people thought of Selena Gomez or Justin Bieber. The story in this video reminds me how it is said that the light of a candle lets you see for a few feet but the light of the candle can be seen from miles away, the same can be said for the impact we have on others, we will never see the true extent of our footprint on peoples lives.

[@chloekurlander6356]

John, I bought your shirt! my dad and sister are both on Hank's side. My dad kept saying how lame I was when I was ordering it. but that didn't stop me even though there is now a huge rivalry in my family now

[@natemancool90]

Throughout all these years John has made incredible books and stories, and many of them reflect back on his life in beautiful and astonishing ways. Today we see john making videos for us through airports. So much we see him wandering through these airports, sometimes filled and sometimes empty. I feel like this time of his life can be reflects on his airport video making rate. I'm hoping for a new story that shows significance in airports, like plane metaphors and stuff. :D I like planes

[@Erdbeermarmeladebort]

gosh, i love your airport vlogs

[@Chouetterargentee]

There seems to be a direct relationship between how much the media cares about John and Hank and how skinny their haircuts are.

[@AshleyJWoods]

Can I just say that I love that John vlogs in airports? :)

[@TheGeekyDad]

Pittbull is looking pretty sleepy in the seat behind john.

[@AnnaGirl136]

It's crazy how many lives John and Hank have changed in so many ways via this community. If it wasn't for this so many peoples lives would be so different, friends and relationships have been made, someone might have read a book because of this channel and it could have changed their life forever. I just find it kinda mad.

[@Bexahlia5933]

People must be so over seeing John film in his local airport by now.

[@BeBold84]

I feel like if someone wanted to meet John, all they would have to do is hang out at the Indianapolis airport for a while.

[@johnsmiff8328]

John and Hank, Why must you fight? Isn't it obvious to you? Aren't we all just a rich people with a collective affinity for bats?

[@coloratura42]

For the record, John, I have no money and therefore can't buy a shirt but if I COULD I would go with the "Batman's just a rich guy with an affinity for bats" one.

A note on the Tour Because Awesome: IT WAS AMAZING! I went to the show in Detroit with my best friend, and I felt like I had found my people. There were Nerdfighters everywhere wearing pizza John t-shirts and being totally awesome. It was like being home. I had more fun at that concert than I ever had before, and I left being not just a Hank Green fan but also a Harry and the Potters fan and a Driftless Pony Club fan and a Andrew Huang fan and a Rob Scallon fan. I was reminded yet again that Nerdfigheria is a community I love being a part of. Some memorable moments from the Detroit show: Not pants Hank wearing Jeanette's hat and saying when he's wearing the hat he's John and when he's not wearing a hat he's himself. Ghostbusters Hank covering Shake It Off and having little dance circles. The Batman music mix up being done. The Michigan vs. Michigan State Nerdfighter fight of 2015 Hank not remembering Lansing (our capital)

[@Tigermond1]

justanothernerdfightergirl Ooooh, that sounds so cool! I wish I would live near one of the places of his tour! But anyway, it makes me happy to hear that other Nerdfighters had a great time. I love this community, too. Dftba. And by the way, great user name. ;)

[@NathanTalbott]

At VidCon 2013, I thanked John & Hank for featuring my video on the 2012 P4A Livestream. Just before my video was played, some P4A artwork was featured by a girl who was good friends with a classmate of mine. This girl (we'll call her Kelsey, because she is named Kelsey), who had just seen her work on the livestream, saw in my video that I lived in Indianapolis (very close to her), & later learned that we had a mutual friend. Over 2 years later, I'm still dating the girl named Kelsey. A mere "thank you" in a comment doesn't quite do the situation justice, but THANK YOU JOHN AND HANK! Thanks for cultivating Nerdfighter-like which became Nerdfighter-love!

[@GiuliaSocolof]

I love how the guy behind you on the plane is just sitting there, staring out the window with his headphones on, completely unaware that he is SITTING NOT THREE FEET AWAY FROM JOHN FRIKKING GREEN. If that ever happened to me, I would most certainly take advantage of the situation and yell FRENCH THE LLAMA!

[@LindseyErstad]

Even if you are not on that most important people list you are important to me ❤️

[@boatsagainst]

John's Batman shirt reminds me of this one scene from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia in which two characters, Mac and Charlie, have a discussion in which Charlie is confused by the fact that Batman doesn't turn into a bat. When Mac tells him that Batman "just likes bats" Charlie says "That can’t possibly be what Batman is about. It’s about a grown man who dresses up like a bat?" and that is exactly how i feel about Batman. so yeah, i would definitely buy John's version of the Batman shirt!

[@Dunkingsonn]

You converted me John. The design is also better, which may or may not be the reason I converted in the first place instead of the quote

[@seasaidh]

I would buy the "We are all Batpeople" shirt, but my husband prefers the other. :) But that stems from an ongoing 10+ year argument of Batman's relevance as a superhero. Yay for nerdy marriage arguments!

[@TheDanishGuyReviews]

On love and Nerdfighteria: Introduced my GF to you guys' vids, and she likes them! I wonder if she's had time to watch the extreme backlog on your channels? Speaking of, I told my best friend: "See that guy? He's been doing this for seven years." He replied: "I'm walling myself in to binge, and I'm bringing the spelunking equipment!" ~ TDG

[@LucasHutchinsonIsGreat]

To be fair John whilst your argument does have less appeal your design is much sleeker and visually appealing.

[@RyanStorey1231]

Okay, I haven't watched the video yet, but let me guess: John's opening words are going to describe him being in the one place he hates more than anything. And he's going to say something along the lines of, "As you can once again tell by the gray speckled walls behind me, I have found myself, once again, in a stunning turn of events, in an airport!"

[@MaddieCollins13]

"Attend a Gala" has been on my bucket list for a while. Also attending a *small* laundry list of nerd/geek cons. C2E2, SDCC, NYCC, VidCon...etc. What's on your life bucket list?

I feel like they should make a playlist of videos just of John in airports

Hoping to meet lots of Nerdfighters tonight in Pittsburgh!!! The end of the video made me nervous, glad you made it on your plane in time. Lol! I really want to buy both t-shirts. But my bank account says, "no." Also, I prefer the "Batman is just a man with an infinity for bats" shirt. Who wouldn't want that shirt?! Thanks for clearing up the gala/gala thing. I never know what to say so I just say both. DFTBA.

I just stopped this video a minute in so I could pre-order your shirt, John. Even if your wife doesn't support your shirt design, you can rest well knowing that a stranger in Middle America does.

John your such a inspiration to me I also love all your books my favorite is paper towns.

Actually before I went to the concert in Chicago my youngest sister said I should meet someone there so I could eventually marry him. I was like 'Yeeea-probably not. I just want to focus on not dying as I'm the one driving the car there and back with other people in it whom I must also keep alive." However, I did meet most of the performers including Hank, so it was a pretty awesome day.

It's okay John. I bought your shirt. The world must know how little I respect Batman.

So I was out of the country for about a week and I came back and saw I had some vlogbrothers videos to catch up on, and I was promptly devastated when I learned I'd missed my possibly sole opportunity to acquire a shirt that says, "Batman's just a rich guy with an affinity for bats."

best part about this whole video goes to the line, "i got like my tux shoes in my backpack." oh john green.

[@matthewt1037]

It's always somewhat odd/interesting to see John at the Indy Airport, seeing places that are basically just normal, everyday places that you've been to, except that you know that 'famous' or well known people have been in the exact same places. IDK, I think it's interesting anyways...

I wonder if he made up the whole "I hope I make it" bit to keep us on the edge of our seats. It was very climatic.

[@simoneloysen1659]

I think I'm going to the Black Cat tour and OMG!!! And don't worry John, you've got my vote for the batman shirts :)
