The Invention of Toilets

[@TH30TH3RGUY18]

It's so sad how people make jokes about this serious topic. The highest thumbs up comments are bad puns about feces, and they fail to comment on how beautifully constructed the video is. Thank you so much Kevin for this educational video I love this channel for that reason. I truly appreciate the time and research you put in this video. Thank you once again.

[@gmfCoding]

I expect youtube to make filterd/tabs of what type of comments are shown within those tabs, "Jokes","Questions","Other" that can be tabs, tbh it would be nice not that i don't like jokes in general

One of the most beautiful quotes that mention poop I've ever heard. "Sewage becomes energy, and we become a forest of the living dead."

[@Nevansuck]

Vsauce, Vsauce 2 and Vsauce 3, I learn more about biology,astronomy, physics and history from you guys than from what I've learned at highschool, no matter the subject you always find a way to make it interesting and explain even complex things in a clear and simple way, I really appreciate your work and thank you for bringing more culture to KZbin :)

I like the uniqueness of Vsauce2. I'm glad it isn't Vsauce1.1.

[@Solid_Hank]

Why can't people enjoy them both?

[@abdulrahmanadeyemi1491]

yea, exactly!

[@Ludix147]

it really isn't. Vsauce 1 is more maths/philosophy, vsauce 2 is more technology and vsauce 3 is mostly digital worlds.

Holy shit, this video was informative yet emotional. It brings a whole new meaning to the circle of life and how precious nature it. Keep it up Kevin, love you.

[@bobrossman7054]

Speaking of Hundertwasser,we had a art piece called the Pavillion of Nature in my old New Zealand school of Birkdale Intermediate. The Pavillion of Nature was made in Hundertwasser's style,as he stayed in New Zealand. He was dead when it was built,but they found a document of him wanting to build it,so they did it and it was an EXACT REPLICA to his idea.

[@Vsauce2]

That is incredibly awesome!

[@bobrossman7054]

Serllyl Kallen Cool

[@CIRCADES]

We had a Humus Toilet in our summer house.

[@bobrossman7054]

stuffums Well ,offence is taken ,not given. Everyone has their opinions. But you misunderstood ,I don't like him ,I've simply heard of his before ,by coincidence.

[@SilverNight145]

The last point he made is actually quite important to me. George Carlin made a point that graveyards and golf fields should not exist as large as they do or not at all. In my opinion, death is a part of everything we have to do with. Think of the places you'd liked to be buried instead of in a wooden box. You take up place & not even given back to life after yours is done. I truly believe if we are to make improvements in this world, what we value & our customs must change.

[@MrJQWERTY]

Carlin=legend of legends

[@sintanan469]

I have plans to have my body converted into a diamond. At least it gives my offspring something to look at.

[@StreakyBaconMan]

I arranged my burial at 24 to ensure I wouldn't have my body contaminate the earth with nasty chemicals preserving me, or causing air pollution when burnt. I get buried among native plant life in an unmarked grave with my approximate burial location plotted on a map. It is much cheaper than a traditional burial, but slightly more expensive than a cremation. I don't understand why you need to visit a body anyway, if you want to build a memorial dedicated to a person who has died where their loved ones can visit that makes some sense - but why the hell does their actual body have to be there?

[@shinji7754f]

I’d rather be put in a shredder and have my body parts go flying

[@doctor_owl]

Solution: Combine graveyards & golf courses. Boom, you've got an amazing mini golf course around tombstones! Problem solved

[@fullofmoochabeans6538]

Glad to see you put the toilet paper on correctly...

[@fullofmoochabeans6538]

***** There is no reason for toilet paper to touch the germ infested wall...

[@TetraSky]

Your public toilets are terrible then. Over here they are around shoulder height when sitting on the bowl and at least 20 inch away from the bowl itself. Having it hang is also a lot easier to pick and tear off instead of trying to get it when it sticks to the wall.

[@NemorisInferioris]

+Justifyed Mattitude Nope. It was proven to have it out on front is correct.

[@NemorisInferioris]

+Justifyed Mattitude It's true. It was studied and they determined the fact that it takes longer for your eye to locate the toilet paper when it's faced inward, rather than outward. I actually saw a presentation about it at school years ago. Look it up. Anyway, I just prefer it outward because it's easier to grab.

[@fullofmoochabeans6538]

the original patent shows the toilet paper facing toward the toilet as well...

[@innocentbystander1993]

Never thought a video about toilets could be so beautiful.

[@ToughVato]

I thought the same thing. Vsauce is so full of life

[@stephankreidl1999]

To be honest becoming a tree after dying is kind of a really awesome idea.

+jenn davis what a humane savage.

[@sunarctus]

Yup and it would be so much better to have a forrest instead of graveyards

[@josh5749]

I already became a tree because "my" placenta had a seed that my mum buried and grew a small tree :)

[@TheGrandPiano]

It's amazing how this would be a perfectly fine high quality video if it ended halfway, but he then stopped to tackle the subject from another perspective, which made the video fantastic. You deserve everything you have, Kevin.

[@PierceWhiteside]

Who knew a video about poop could be so beautiful?

[@Skip6235]

He still didn't explain why the hell we use drinkable water in our toilets??!

[@joonashalpin8501]

I think the main reason was that it doesn't smell.

[@JonnyApple445]

It's more hygienic and that's basically the only main water supply we have.

[@Speedkomodo]

To lessen the amount of pipes, that we have to build underground.

[@anders3299]

He didn't say that. He said it's the same as the tap water, which is drinkable in most places.

[@FelixO]

[@aaronbarding5671]

I am a civil engineering student and this video is the most inspirational video to me. This is why I got into the field, to design the simplest and sustainable systems. The Humus Toilet is absolutely brilliant and reduces water, pipes, maintenance and the need for sewer treatment plants. I am looking into using one.

[@ar3l1]

the first video about poop in wich I ended up so emotional....almost crying

[@---rm2gw]

Emotional*

[@blobspup]

emocional is a word, though

[@ar3l1]

thanks. I usually write in spanish, so my phone corrected emotional to emocional.

[@javierfernandez2958]

I've seen alot of poop videos. this one was really good. but almost crying? if the video taught us anything, just let it out! ;P

[@katsauce]

Are Trejo Isla but... emotional in spanish is emocionado

[@rogerbrown4409]

Leave it to Kevin to make a video about poop interesting and philosophical.

[@OleKristianElns]

I'm glad the roll of the toilet paper is placed correctly

[@johnchippendale9192]

nice eye.. but I THINK (and I might be wrong) dude is on top of a pile of bodys. Kind of hanging over and theres another guy seems to be poking him with a stick! lol you gotta love those old revolutionary era/style paintings tho. theyre soo weird.

[@BettyAlexandriaPride]

Lmbo.

[@SpydersByte]

lmao nice catch

[@mexiguayan]

He's upside down because he's being dumped out of the wheelbarrow into a hole in the ground to be buried along with the other dead bodies he's on top of. The previous sentence makes more sense if you replace every instance of the word "he's" with "it's".

[@DarkBloodLP]

Living in germany near several hunderwasser-buildings never seemed so interesting as now. I visiset them but never truly understand the spirit of them, till now. Great video, keep up the great work :)

[@ShadowFan1630]

Well personally speaking, if you read the manga, you can read from any point. Normally I would recommend reading from Parts 1-6 or Parts 7&8. But when you read certain points just promise me one thing... when a villain or hero does something last minute to save the day, say, "By the power of deus ex machina." Trust me, it's worth it. The Joke was from Part 5: Vento Aureo (Golden Wind). Have fun searching! :P

Hey! Love the video! I was just wondering who made the end movie. It´s awesome and I want to know who made it. If it was you Kevin, I don't know what to say... I love the end.

[@Vsauce2]

Thanks! Yeah, I made the ending using the amazing time-lapse nature footage of Neil Bromhall and footage from various public domain films that I found.

[@crispybacon4240]

I thought it was unsettling. It was good, but something felt off... *edit* Oh! The sped up "nature footage" looked kinda like paper and claymation for some reason, I think that contributed to it somewhat.

[@mastakla69]

[@crispybacon4240]

mastakla69 "I thought it was unsettling" ==> "Duhr ur jsut a h8r! Liek u cud do better!" It wasn't even criticism, I honestly just felt unnerved watching it. I'm not sure if that was his intention. Jeez, no one can say anything that could even be _perceived_ as criticism without some jerk jumping down their throat for being a "jealous fool".

Better watch some more cause he needs to get clean water fast

[@hatchera]

The water in the toilet is clean.

[@RedPaintedTable]

It is drinkable but far from clean. I know this because we conducted an experiment in college to determine the difference between toilet, faucet, pond, and bottled water. The results are not surprising... i'll leave you to determine the order and which were safest with the least amount of microbes.

[@FWtravels]

I also know about Pasteurs 1861 germ theory and Koch's magic bullets and shit

[@minidwarfdude9230]

1858 great stink!! OMG I know stuff!! Lol

[@minidwarfdude9230]

Lol Bazelgette too!!! Wow why am I do excited for knowing stuff?? Because I never usually do!! Lol

[@alfierocks67]

For real 🙄

[@PittsyPlays]

The magic bullets were Ehrlich's though

[@ad-sd-vids5332]

1:29 just another reason why people didnt know shit about anything before the 1900s.

[@nergalblacksun]

well the romans had proper sewers but hey than the Dark Ages came and someone waving with a cross made people forget just about everything hygienicaly and medicaly important.

[@danmas7181]

+Nergal BlackSun Well it couldn't be religion as Romans were Catholic.

[@nergalblacksun]

I did say someone, not right away the catholic church. Because clearly some fanatics had their dirty hands at works there. Relegion never is the absolute culprit but extremist fanatics which can easyly find each other within the ranks of big organisations.Since the Catholic church was the biggest one out there at the time, we just happened to get almost all of em in one place. It's not the dumb kind thats dangoures- it's the intelligent elite that poisens itself with fanatism and nazistic views which than can easiely influence everyone with less knowledge and power.

another source for the Inquisition but with numbers and well it's not even million it's a few thousand thecripplegate.com/how-many-people-died-in-the-inquisition/

Now I have a question: why do we use clean water in our toilets ? While people are lacking clean water, we use it to flush our toilets... Seems weird...

[@EliteTester]

it would stink and contaminate the air

[@ArchOfWinter]

Certain coastal cities use separate sea water system for toilets. It save fresh drinking water while it also cut cost in water and sewage treatment.

[@coolsodapop12]

It'd probably cost more then to just use clean water. To get dirty water specifically, or to make clean water unclean, get newer pipes, etc. It'd be a lot of effort for a "little".

[@---rm2gw]

what are we going to do with it? pack it up and send it to India?

[@markvillegas6772]

Well the point of the clean water system is to help keep our environment clean. Cause we turn poop into electricity and fertilizer, cause we don't want to dump it into the rivers and etc. Also the water in your sink is also the water that they filtered from poop. But don't be afraid, it is clean.

[@Fronk11]

I could not concentrate on anything you said for 2 mins after seeing you drink water from the toilet. I was just imagining how hard it would be to fully disinfect such a bacteria filled place. Maybe it doesnt really matter if some is left behind because you wont get sick but i dont think that I could personally pull it off. Kudos!

[@Archferumphis]

8:38 Everyone in Finland knows these. The method is being used at most summer cottages.

[@mikkomallikas8678]

I've always thought that the hummus-toilet (käymälä, huussi, hyyskä) has been around for centuries o_O a _very_ common sight at summer cottages and old farms/houses.

[@ChristianJiang]

Oh yes! I saw them when I went to Finland!
