Frightened Leech Science with Tessa Violet

Tessa Violet came by and we played a new game that I invented. We also finally explain my 2:30 clock.

"Yeah, hi, tech support? I think my leeches are dead." "Sir, you need to reset your whalebones." "The whalebones never moved, the leeches are dead!" "Have you reset your whalebones yet sir?"

Scientist now: We have machines! Scientists then: Hear me out... leeches.

[@NickCBax]

Scientists then: We have a machine, the key measurement device is leeches.

[@elizabethaman7]

MOM. HANK GREEN EMAAAILED ME.

[@larryteslaspacexboringlawr739]

best part of video

[@snabbott]

If Hank Green emailed me, I would probably have a similar reaction.

[@benjaminallenbowles]

I would do that too honestly

[@allisonpenner6313]

John once retweeted a picture of me sitting in Agloe and I burst into tears and my Mom asked what was wrong and I said "JOHN KNOWS I'M REAL. BUT ONLY ON TWITTER"

[@ensaios]

does anyone knows if the trivia thing happened?

[@nathaniel201]

Hank is the master at subtly plugging his book. *In the middle of an unrelated conversation * "How's my book?"

[@JosiahMcCarthy]

He learned from the best: his brother.

[@kittenhaile]

He’s come along way! 6 months ago, John was dragging him to promo basically kicking and screaming.

[@robertbaillargeon3683]

I don't know why, but that editing with the sudden zoomed-in-on-a-face thing is really surprising to see on a vlogbrothers video.

[@elizabethaman7]

It caught me off guard, but it seemed very Hank-ish, if that makes sense?

[@TheSisicool]

Next up, vine voiceovers

[@barnziee]

glad this is top comment. Hank def didn't edit this.

[@JasonKurtz1992]

He did that in the "bad decisions with dad" video, too. Very Hank-y. Hank-ish? What's the proper term here?

[@mia.jade.]

Jason Kurtz crunch crunch

[@Ian-bf4yk]

I think Hank would look good with green hair and Tessa would look good with violet hair. No reason.

[@symoneontheinternet]

Ian ha

[@elizabethaman7]

I hate how long it took for me to get that.

[@rasmusn.e.m1064]

Ayyyy! Two colourful white people! I mean, that does make sense with additives doesn't it?

[@talitajames7652]

A brother from another mother with a last name of another colour of another colour

[@bunnie187]

I know you’re joking but she actually used to have a pinkish purpley hair color in her old music videos if you wanna check that out.

[@spec10]

The "Mom, Hank Green emailed me" bit made me laugh so hard. I had a (well kinda) similar experience years back when I commented on a vlogbothers video and Hank or John - ironically I don't remember - replied to my comment. Yeah ... maybe not that similar and ... ah well. It was a big deal to me and I still cherish the memory! :)

[@talitajames7652]

spec10 same, but I was in the podcast!! (Ep 145 9:08)

[@KaijaSchmauss]

Same, except I was literally in a Vlogbrothers video for a split second. It was the one a couple years ago where John ended up in the hospital and everyone was like "putting stuff on our heads made him laugh last time he was in the hospital. Let's do that again". I was the girl with Pikachu on her head.

[@posthumorously]

I had a similar reaction when Hank responded to me on a P4A livestream, pronouncing my username and saying it a bunch of different ways. :) And again when John responded to me but I can't remember what he said but it's totally cool because, well... we've met more than once since then.

[@chrisf1584]

I think we need a 2:30 clock with Hank's face in the middle to be on dftba.com

[@panpolypuff]

Chris F I support this. Not just as a fan of Hank-face, but as a fellow Chris F.

[@thrallgames]

They should either edit out some of his teeth in the pic, or make them yellow and gnarly.

[@vincenttavani6380]

Ooh! The background can have hands that are stuck on two thirty, and then a face of Hank can be on a transparent arm, jiving around on the numbers. I don't know what the other hand should be.

[@khadeejaahsan4512]

This could be on a t-shirt and be the new addition to the Pizza John shirts!

[@iplaysdrums]

This is quite a downer, but if we're talking about vlogbrother dental pain, we're almost certainly talking about John. I agree the corny clock joke is more Hank's style, though. It could be a mouse pad! Or a poster! Or even a mug! With Hank's mug!

[@christinastone3728]

I can't even begin to cope with how adorable Tessa is!

[@Matreud]

Stage 1 of hank's plan to enlighten the world with his group of friends comprised of people whose names are colors is complete. Next target: Jack Black

[@philiptouw3623]

Oh boy, crush is stuck in my head again! It's such a good song and it's so catchy! Also, all the dad jokes in this video are fantastic!

[@carbonxkiwi]

This whole video is golden - really glad to know that leech science, too. These days I’d still almost trust those more (& way more interesting for me to watch than the news...)

[@evildude109]

For a minute I didn't know if this was a vlogbrothers or meekakitty video, that editing was such a good recreation of Tessa's vlogs.

[@sexyscientist]

Yeah, the new ones. Woops! Sorry, they don't exist.

[@LivingJustForFun]

Crush is honestly such a bop. I had it on repeat last night and danced around my house for a good hour.

[@ClearNight34]

wow, that crush intermission was much needed and highly appreciated

[@RememberTheTrees]

God I can't wait to read your book, Hank.

[@rizznrita]

BEST. COLLAB. EVER. I have been listening to Crush on nonstop repeat for... days? weeks? years? eons? I cannot remember a time when that wasn’t my favorite song.

[@jazycool]

I love Tessa’s song in this video. I can’t stop listening to it on Apple Music! So good!!!

[@mob5350]

OH MY STARS! Is anyone else now OBSESSED with this song?! Its SO GREAT! Thank you for sharing:)

[@simplysarah16]

I'm taking an education psychology class and we watched a crash course video about Erik Erikson. When I saw Hank, I internally screamed "HANK!!". Out loud, the girl next to me said, "Oh, I love the crash course guy!" 😂

[@mayeginz]

I'll never get tired of Crush or random interesting trivia! (So nostalgic for the old days of Truth or Fail)

[@dannywoods17]

MEEKAKITTY! One of the very first people I ever subscribed to, back in like 2009 or something. We need more Tessa in our lives.

[@Smikay]

Checking in after 3 weeks to thank you for introducing me to Tessa Violet, she's bloody brilliant

[@FictionWriter95]

Two and a half years later and this is still one of my favorite Vlogbrothers video titles

[@MissyJello]

omg I looooove Tessa! Crush has been on my playlist of my favorite songs for a while now.

[@AllieYourAlly]

hey is anybody interested in a secret project? (no Hank and John allowed!!) google “secret project no peeking Hank and John” (quotes not necessary) and you’ll find it ;)

[@Mehrnooshb]

[@JustAPeachyt]

Yes!

[@connierule3902]

You got a heart. I wonder if they peeked?

[@Backflipgal12]

I’ve been listening to Touch on repeat and OMG THERES AN ALBUM COMING OUT??? I cant wait!!!

[@singinpoet]

This is so cute and interesting. I suggest Hank and friends read obscure Wiki pages together more often!

[@themripley]

The fact you two are friends makes me so happy.

[@lockedwhisper5433]

I just barely discovered Tessa's song Crush this week and I am obsessed!! I adore it, and I am such a fan of this video!! Ahhh!

[@reginabedgood1799]

You are so good at puns! Also Tessa, I love how weird you are and I relate to it on a spiritual level. I've been jamming to Crush since seeing you on Animal Wonders Montana!

[@elliediringer3821]

Since Tessa was on scishow quiz show, I’ve been listening to her non stop

[@MotorCityPhoenix313]

That "to leech their own" made me laugh wayyyy harder than it should 😂😂😂

[@cupfulofeathers]

Tessa Violet? In my VlogBros video? It's more likely than you think! Great to see two of my favorites together!

[@caleblim6890]

What a nice birthday, Hank and Tessa in the same video

[@louisec-m9503]

This is a wonderful video. You guys have a really watchable dynamic presenting a video together!

[@reagan_reads_]

ahh tessa is one of my favorite people and I am so glad there is this video where she is with another one of my favorite people!!

[@eibbore]

Tessa - your hair looks SO GOOD today.

[@mimi_wandering]

Ah I miss seeing collabs like this :) so pure!

[@meri3580]

Two of my favorite people! I kind of want to challenge my friends to this same thing now

[@TheSweBoo]

Tessa is SO. FRICKIN. *PURE*

[@Trinibantan]

Haven't seen Tessa in like 5 years,she looks amazing now

[@JasonKurtz1992]

This is one of my favorite vlogbrothers videos. Can we have more content like this*? *Just being silly with friends and introducing me to cool people.

[@TheLetterFifteen]

Nice to see Tessa on vlogbrothers! And get Crush stuck in my head again.

[@ChillinWithTheCapuchins]

This was amazing! I would love to see you do this with various guests!

[@frenchyf4327]

Yay! I always love seeing more of meekakitty. One of the og youtubers.

[@Rosalie_Jansen]

Pssssst...! Do you like Secret Projects? Because there’s one happening right now! If you would like to participate and do something nice for Hank and John, just google ‘Secret Project - no peeking, Hank and John’ and you’ll find it!

[@princessLilytea]

after the scishow video, i listened to tessa's music, at first I didn't really like it, but I knew some people who would definitely like it. after a sharing the songs a couple of times it kinda grew on me. (especially haze)

[@flibbertiggibetcha]

I am so excited for the album!!!

[@mia.jade.]

This friendship pleases me

[@Cheshnjica]

Wholesome and delightful.

[@MiaStegnerMusic]

I love this! My favs.

[@brooksgillespie]

OK THIS MADE MY DAY CAUSE I HECKIN LOVE THE VLOGBROTHERS AND I ALSO HECKIN LOVE TESSA VIOLET AND AM SEEING HER IN 2 DAYS WAHOOO

[@brebeeb]

Oh my god I used to me a huge fan of a wizard rock song tessa was in like 5 years ago, the full circle is complete

[@tmterrill1]

It's REALLY weird, in the most awesome way, to hear Hank say my first name.

[@chloem2483]

The collab I never knew I needed but did

[@andreafeelsfantastic]

Yellow hair! SO pretty!

[@EmeliaSings]

I've listened to Crush for a long time now, I loveeee it

[@Gold161803]

I love both of you more than life itself

[@MrControll]

If you really need to know, you can usually find live leaches at well equipped bait shops. They're used as bait for certain kinds of fish.

[@smnn95]

when crush came out ,i was listening to it 24/7 and that was the only thing i listened to on repeat for weeks. It kinda phased out. Now the song is stuck in my head again................................................................................ thanks

[@bluebell560]

I was about to have a heart attack when I thought the title said "Alyssa Violet."

[@CinnamonToast]

if you like this wikipedia page, i recommend to you the "funny deleted wikipedia articles" page. It's just the titles of pages that were rejected but had such hilarious titles that the staff saved them on the page. I completely lost it laughing the first time I went through it.

[@Thunderwalker87]

Tessa Violet is a glorious sight to behold.

[@adibferdous826]

John, hank, Bangladesh comes up in your videos so often, there must be a connection between us and you guys. Please declare Bangladesh as a nerdfighter zone, we all love you from here. WE don't want to miss everything from here anymore. A Bangladeshi teen (nerd) nerdfighter.

[@nat5464]

A CAROUSEL OF LEECHES

[@MisterAppleEsq]

Okay, I need to read through this Wikipedia page to waste all my time, it seems amazing. Also, I'd heard about the third-order enclave via Jay Foreman's Map Men, which is a great series.

[@jacobcruz5735]

You guys should really make more of these videos that are more loose it's really cute and enjoyable to watch

[@Ilamarea]

Now that's the type of collaboration I like.

[@darthvaderchic]

Wait there should be a rule where videos can be longer if it's a collab with my other favorite OG KZbinrs!!! Love you guys!!

[@sexyscientist]

People who started in 2007 are not OG. 2005 peeps are.

[@KeepCalmwithBooksandCoffee]

Two of my favorite internet people!

[@coconutologist]

the marriage of leaches and bowling yielded some interesting results as well

[@georgiamills3405]

Tessa is such an amazing artist

[@topraksungurlu1474]

I love her hair!

[@567secret]

Tessa you're amazing.

[@seanrshivers]

the puns. I am so in love with the puns.

[@rusted_ursa]

[Some Song] by Hank Green and the Perfect Strangers feat. Tessa Violet. Make it happen, Hank!

[@joycohoon4827]

Holy crap, I used to watch Tessas videos when she was modeling in Japan

[@natylee1113]

I like her music, but she will always be meekakitty to me!!

[@mnaftw]

[@Cat_Sidhe]

This is fantastic on all levels

[@greensteve9307]

Great vid! I love the short ones. More!! :)

[@rasmusn.e.m1064]

Shoutout to John Merriweather for having a very convenient name for inventing a forecasting leech carrousel, and Hank Green and Tessa Violet for having a very neat brown as their surnominous semantic blend! Like a minty chocolate :)

[@yashjoshi3257]

I love this vlog and I love her song 'crush'. Touch touh touch touch touch

[@sha2424]

this is . . . so good. i would say this is the content i signed up for but this did not exist *BUT IF IT HAD*

[@simsamsammie]

Hank and Tessa are my favorite unexpected duo (P.S. WRITE A SONG TOGETHER)

[@fallenasleep7247]

Probably dozens of comments saying this, but that hair is fantastic.

[@nathanroon6961]

Liking that Sam from Wendover Productions and his Half as Interesting channel is getting the shoutout. Great content.

[@MaazAlvi]

I have been watching you for so many years I love your vids

[@kwebst1]

OMG from the Breakup song!! A favorite of mine!!! You are great!!

[@MattPalka]
