Dave's parents are savage! 😂 I'm Black (this is relevant, I promise). When I was about 10yrs old, I was playing around on my mom's keyboard piano, just pressing random keys. She came into the living room and said something like "You know, real Black musicians only play using the black keys," and went back into the kitchen. I carefully began picking away only at the black keys. Shortly thereafter I hear my parents giggling together like children in the kitchen. I was appalled and embarrassed at the time, but now it's one of my favorite absolutely hilarious childhood memories. 🤣❤️

[@NavneetRao]

On the other hand: that works out to a pentatonic scale (E flat minor, or G flat major). A lot of Stevie Wonder's songs use this, cause it's easier to play on the keyboard for blind musicians, as the black keys are raised up and in a different location to the white keys.

Waaaay back in 1978, when I was 7, I was eating pop-rocks when the kid next door told my grandmother that “some guy” had eaten pop-rocks with Coke and died. That was the end of pop-rocks in our house. It turned out that the urban legend was that the kid from the Life cereal commercial (Mikey likes it) had eaten pop-rocks and Coke on a dare, then he exploded. Total nonsense, but lots of people stopped buying pop-rocks because of the tall tale.

As someone that got stuck with a random used needles changing the trash at work (the small t-shirt bag swung as I tied it and stuck my twice,) I feel Simon's discomfort for used needles. I had to spend months getting tested and retested for various STDs including HIV/AIDS. Also had to get a a number of vaccines for a bunch of stuff. Thankfully I didn't get anything, but still...

[@dereinzigwahreRichi]

Oh, you were lucky then, I hope this never happens to you again. I once had a project request to help design needle-proof gloves as PSA/workwear and this is damn near impossible. Cut-proof is far easier but doesnt help you in this scenario. Only thing that works is thick leather gloves but good luck fiddling with trash bags with those...

[@mjfan653]

Even if a person is deep in an hard drugs binge, they should find the second to cap their needles. Each needle comes with an orange safety cap. Where I live, needles are rarely thrown on the ground, as there are exchanges. But all the needles Ive seen in the trash or on the ground, have had orange safety caps on them. Only a very stupid and selfish person would disregard the capping.

@@dereinzigwahreRichi it was a fast food resturant so all I had access to were nitrile and vinyl gloves. Like what people were getting at the shops during covid. So they were useless against a sharp needle. 😖

@@mjfan653 exactly. I have nonodea who it was but I wasn't suprised. I lived in a type of low-income housing called the "PJs" in the US. Basically like the ghettos but they're specifically apartment complexes vs a specific neighborhood or town. And in the one I lived in, as well as some others in the county, it isn't uncommon to find them on the ground. When I was living there and my kids were very small, I often wouldn't let them play outside much if we couldn't go elsewhere because I was worried about them picking one up, not knowing any better. Thankfully while we're we live now isn't the best my kids can just go outside and run the streets of our neighborhood barefoot and be okay.

The razor thing in Halloween candy goes back to the 1960s and it was supposed to have happened in New York. There were also reports of LSD and things injected into candies for a few years in the late 60s. In New Orleans, where I grew up, no reports. I sometimes think it was an outgrowth of the actual painkiller poisonings that happened a couple of times.

I have never once heard any mention of a Hackney Marshes monster. I've googled it though and does seem like there was a police search mission w/ helicopter in 1981. I'm hoping the 2012 'sighting' wasn't real or if it was, it wasn't a prank because the marshes is right next to the London Olympic site in Stratford.

Where the myth about a button that gives you extra power in a Tesla comes from is actually older model electric cars which had a reset button on the battery reader. My father worked on these. Li-Ion batteries actually don't fully empty, draining them completely actually destroys them. Hitting that reset button somehow tricked the sensor into letting you tap into that reserve that's meant to KEEP THE BATTERY FUNCTIONAL AND RECHARGEABLE. One idiot hit it so many times that he completely drained something along the lines of $100,000 worth of batteries, making them nothing more than a glorified toxic boat anchor. Don't try to trick the power/safety systems, folks, they're there for a reason.

There actually is a longer range option for Tesla's. You just have to pay for it, they've temporarily enabled it for free during major emergencies a couple times. No button though, the batteries just don't charge fully unless you unlock it.

When my son was an infant, he literally did turn orange! Carrots, Sweet Potato and Pumpkin were the main culprits. For some stupid reason, I didn't think of this, even though I know you can make a plant turn any colour you like by adding food colouring to the water. After a VERY long night at the hospital, the Head of Paediatrics came to us and asked "Just by the off chance, does your son eat a lot of orange foods?" I replied "Yes, it seems he only likes orange foods." "Well" said he, "I am fairly sure your son does not have Jaundice, but rather, you have dyed you child!"

And the person who did it was allegedly mentally disturbed, and accused local kids of vandalizing their house. No idea what happened after that, but it was reported on *after* Halloween.

[@sassanada]

Am i remembering correctly that years later it came out that the person who was the origin of the poison candy urban legend had actually poisoned their own kid's candy in an attempt to collect life insurance on them? I swear i stumbled across that on some true crime show a few years back.

There was a guy that wanted to collect on the insurance policies on his kids so he poisoned their pixie sticks as well as a few others to draw attention away from himself.

I have to say first the editing on this video is hilariously top notch!! Then I have to say HEY!! The reason here in the UK there's modern folklore, stories, rumours whatever about strange beasts, maybe escaped exotic pets etc is because the scariest thing you'll encounter across the UK is perhaps an angry Bull/Cow or maybe a Horse!! If you're really unlucky potentially an Adder but even then you've got to be extremely unlucky to die from a bite! Especially as kids when you go out exploring, there's a vast expanse of land, maybe a big woodland!? Blatantly there's gunna be a Wolf Pack hidden away or perhaps a small population of maybe a big cat etc. I also mention the escaped/released exotic pets & big cats because that DID happen (Simon has done a video about it!) Whilst the arguments for & against some of these big cats surviving & evading capture to start a small population is absolutely up for debate! There was a time when some of these "Beasts" could very well have been an escaped Puma say! Then folklore & Chinese Whispers does its thing!
