The 3,000-year history of the hoodie | Small Thing Big Idea, a TED series

[@aidandungan2357]

A Jedi's hoodie is their symbol of solidarity and humble devotion. My hoodie means im cold.

[@HLB313]

"We call them humble masterpieces" ....do we? "Hey can I borrow your humble masterpiece, i'm chilly."

[@FilipeMiaoumiam]

It wasn't an inclusive 'we' 😂

I'M HELLA WEAK😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@HLB313]

Heeeeeap hope, bea boise...

[@EyeAmBatman]

Who?? Dee?

[@carprincess]

I didn't realize that hoodies had such a long history, but I guess it makes total sense. Thanks for sharing and educating!

[@nurinmaisarah3233]

Wow.. I love hoodies cause.. yeah.. it makes me feel like I'm protected... Physically and also emotionally.. I dont know how to explain this though... I've never really thought that hoodies could be so significant... This is really cool..

[@Ethancarmine05]

I love wearing my hoodie. It makes me feel safe. I wear my hoodie every day and my pjs have a hoodie

[@TheEfX]

Man i love this series cause of the length of the video, the smooth editing both video and audio, they are short and compact, but make a punch :)

[@BreyonnaMorgan18]

The whodie? I respect her though.

[@bruschetta6302]

Waiting for the Assassin's Creed puns

[@Raggepagge]

We work with a hoodie to serve the light...

[@erg0pr0xy]

Assassin's Creed puns are not ezio to make 😏

[@sadiecoalier961]

The way she says hoodie makes me uncomfortable

[@nkynative2850]

Sadie Coalier I was fine up until she said Knickerbocker

[@BagelBoyyy]

Shes pretending to be human

[@rambler241]

The same way many people can't (or choose not to be able to) pronounce "oo". Moon becomes "mewn", food becomes "feud", cows apparently "mew". Annoys me intensely.

[@isabelyborguezani2361]

This role comment section is so insensitive. She's italian, guys. it's not like she's pronouncing it that way on purpose, and her pronunciation is actually pretty good. You all should have more respect.

[@baller_tv]

Love the new series!

[@bigpoof596]

You also want to tell us the history of why girls keep taking our hoodies?✊😂

[@jasenkavukelic5047]

Pessimistic Ninny So buy her one!

[@LotsChrono]

Jasenka Vukelić Pft, they’ll still take yours instead! They want yours! You think they don’t already have their own? Pft, they just want yours man.

[@jasenkavukelic5047]

Lots Chrono I think that's cute...

[@HelloHello-ws2zo]

Hahaha so true

[@francesca394]

Because yours are warmer and smells good (most of the times) 😂

[@sakshijaiswal1455]

Yes.....that "protection" Thing is damn real

[@ericbarryofficial1895]

I'm watching this video while wearing a hoodie😎

[@puurrrr]

*i wear a hoodie right now.*

[@pvtpain66k]

1:08 !! I KNOW THAT SONG! BRAIN ACTIVATED! Darren Korb - Percy's Escape - Bastion OST

[@harshityadav4688]

Hoodie=confidence

[@serfincolorado]

What movie is that clip from, where the persons hooded in white circle around the man standing in the center hooded in black? 1:08

[@noobspice]

Reminds me of the bastion soundtrack

[@mrjack901]

We all know that Assassins are the ones that invented Hoodies

[@emypengy8922]

That was so amazing thank u! I always looked at people with hoodies as legends in an automatic way I don't know way XD There is just some mystery & warmth in it~♡

[@samdylan9350]

Ted speaker: "The huudy" *The Woodys start playing!*

[@blacklyfe6881]

I love hoodies I always used to wear them at school a lot and outside didn't know it had a history behind it.

[@taqi8675]

I just thought of the question "wait... where do hoodies come from" and now my mind is blown

[@pontusgustafsson9510]

I wonder if the hoodie could work as a uniform of some sort, almost like a military uniform for parades. Kind of militarizing the hoodie by adding certain features and symbolism to fit a more powerful role.

[@Tripps2564]

Its possible; some police forces use hoodies

[@aryangupta1971]

Welcome to mah hood fellas

[@audienceslove5742]

Wow since 2016 ted longv time no see!

[@Toby8845]

I agree. Hoodies are awesome!

[@davidamadore]

[@89Dustdevil]

They keep hay out of your ears when you jump off buildings.

[@hookedj7184]

I first wore a hoodie with a zip when I was pre schooler I instantly fell in love. That looked so cool to me. Maybe its because I saw many American movies idk (Im Central Asian btw) it was a symbol of modernity. But now its just my ears always get cold and a hood is such a day saver😂

[@jasenkavukelic5047]

Got my hoodie on right now:-D

[@Michael-xh3jc]

My parents especially find it useful to pull on my hood when I wanted to run away when I was a toddler. and my big sister enjoyed hanging herself on the coat rack with that hood

[@DigitalWraith]

*Requiescat in Pace*

[@MrSanjayparker]

Great series

[@Selfemployedmildautisticperfor]

Is it a series or you mean the ted one inn general ??, shall mostly good in the hood has stuck with me since teen yrs 38 now

[@MidnightBloomDev]

What makes a good hacker? Hoodie

[@KyleCulver]

I'm sorry; Mark Zuckerberg what?? Bad example. You should probably start with the 'hood' and WHY it was conceived/invented. This isn't much of a history lesson. Nowhere did she mention its actual practical purposes other than to keep warm. I'm definitely inspired though. Inspired to research the actual history and maybe create my own rendition on the subject. Also, the editing was nice! Sound effects could use a bit more mixing, but the design is great.

[@melindaburns5782]

I never even noticed that about the hoodi. Wow.

[@unreactive]

WHOLE UNIVERSE

[@browk2512]

The hooodie

[@Mohand014]

i watched this video after watching The Alpha movie and was thinking how could this people 20000 years ago think about adding hoodie to their clothes and this video answered me , thank you

[@HLB313]

A marsupial pocket?! 😍

[@emmanuelasphodelemorphienn3083]

"It doesn't happen that often for a garment to have so much symbolism and history..." - you can not name a garment without symbolism. You maybe don't know them, but these meanings do exist.

[@Rashaadthegr8]

lol im literally wearing a hoodie right now.lol.

[@jasenkavukelic5047]

Andrea Mendenhall Hahahahha

[@JimCorrigan777]

No way. That's crazy.

[@CrimmyYT]

weird flex but ok

[@javierstrive3356]

Hoodie Life

[@SolarScion]

This wasn't a history of hoodies. You gave a history of hooded garments. Stop abusing the language by using a specific term only around since the 90s for a single type of clothing item to refer to everything in history with a hood on it.

[@WestboundPromo416]

hoodie season

[@PirateOfTheNorth]

I love wearing hoodies

[@anisboucheneb736]

i like this series 👌

[@tenzing28]

The woody

[@late_arvie]

Hoodie Melo liked this video!

[@zochbuppet448]

NO! She is wrong and has concept of recent (past 20 years) fashion, or what the non mainstream wore. In recent history "huuudi" became a bit popular during the 90's with Gangster Rap.,and some people who were into hip hop but the average person never wore it. It would of died but in the late 1990s or early 2000's people in the alternative rock scene adopted it. It was actually people in the alternative scene that popularized it and blown it into the mainstream, not Hip hop as most people think.

[@bobby_greene]

Hoodie and the blowfish?

[@JD2jr.]

What? Not everything is a hoodie... the word "hoodie" implies a hooded sweatshirt. "Oh the grim reaper wears a hoodie" is the dumbest thing I've heard in weeks.

[@leveljoe]

Is it a garment that covers the torso and has a hood attached? Then it's a hoodie.

[@JD2jr.]

No, then it is *hooded*. Again, "hoodie is short for hooded sweatshirt. The grim reaper wears a hooded cloak, not a hoodie. A parka has a hood, but that's a coat, not a hoodie.

[@leveljoe]

@@JD2jr.in what way is hoodie short for hooded sweatshirt??? "Hoodie" and "hooded" have the same number of letters and "hoodie" has nothing from the word "sweatshirt"... ...as in, "swoodie". Hoodie is just another word for hooded. You have all but admitted to it. You really need to get out more...

[@atmclick]

Couldn't agree more. Hooded cloaks aren't hoodies

[@tupd]

@@atmclick couldnt disagree more. Yes they are.

[@JimCorrigan777]

A hoodie is a hooded sweatshirt, not simply a cloak or garment with a hood...

[@gigglysamentz2021]

Why do I wear hoodies if I never use the hood? Oh, here's the answer, thank you XD

[@moonlight7223]

The hoodies were also worn in ancient cultures by ladies to cover themselves as a concept of vague veil.

[@DrArthurCGarp]

Just watching and waiting for an Assassin's Creed reference

[@JTheoS1976]

How can you do a piece on the Hoodie without mentioning Bill Belichick?

[@Sandvich756]

Someone else watching in the hoodie?

[@radughita1992]

Good luck getting a decent job that lets you wear hoodies

[@mrdrprof8402]

Wait it's actually called a marsupial pouch? And here I am getting weird looks for calling that front pocket my kangaroo pouch

[@Baxtexx]

Old intro?

[@bronson8062]

The dark side of the hoodie xD

[@deeb3272]

You forgot to mention about hackers wearing hoodies.

[@hrithik1114]

And then in 2007 ubisoft released this video game

[@kenb9064]

Totally got the trayvon martin case wrong

[@ChristianConrad]

She's actually talking about the _hood,_ not the _"hoodie"._ The thing that you pull over your head and is attached to some other garment has always been called a "hood", while the "hoodie" means, quite specifically, the modern _sweatshirt_ with a hood. Several of her illustrations of older "hoodies" are totally different garments, like capes and overcoats, with hoods. A whole "TED" video about a concept she hasn't even understood at all.

[@fantasy-musicgirl2034]

i was hooded wen i watched this video XD

[@Youcantleavethisempty01]

No mention of Bob Dylan and the hoodie?

[@grizzlymanverneteil4443]

I always carry tea and skittles when I wear my hoodie, unless I'm around white Hispanics.

[@Joedem92]

Grizzlyman MeinTeil as long as you don’t pummel their face into the ground, you’ll be fine.

[@grizzlymanverneteil4443]

Thx

[@michaelsterling8065]

I expected so much more from TED talk.

[@btchinglicayan683]

I want to wear grim reapers hoodie

[@michelepiteo7179]

I've no idea why you people bother and in the end i even give up keeping up. You've obviously been to the trouble of re-searching a nice collection of photos although you may as well show the same one . What's faster than getting diahorrehea? Blinking. Or the time it takes for you flash one of those photographs like strobe lights in a discotheque. Then i keep getting thrown over-board for freeze-framing tsck

The “oo” in “hoodie” is pronounced like the “oo” in “good,” not the “oo” in “food.”
