That's why it's called the Pentagon because it's in the shape of a pentagon😂😂😂
Other facts: It has five buildings one inside the next (look at the aerial photograph) and all of the buildings are five floors tall.
@@patrickchambers5999There's a place to get hot dogs called "Ground Zero" at the center of the Pentagon courtyard. 😂
The Pentagon also has about twice as many bathrooms as you would expect for that size building, because when it was being built (finished in 1943) Virginia law required segregated white and "colored" bathrooms.
@@ronansan When Roosevelt visited the building before it's dedication he ordered the "whites only" signs removed. When the governor of Virginia objected, Roosevelt responded that the building was a federal building, under federal jurisdiction, and its military and civilian employees would comply with federal policy. As a result, the Pentagon was the only building in Virginia that didn't enforce racial segregation laws.
Some more fun facts:
When originally built, it did not have any elevators. The general overseeing it did not want to see fat generals using elevators; everyone would have to use the stairs.
When originally designed, it was expected that after the war the DoD would be reduced to its pre-war size, they wouldn't need such a large office building anymore, and it would be converted to records storage. Hence, it has rather low ceilings for its size.
Coca Cola stopped using cocaine in their formula in 1903, so yes Millie, it was before your time!😂
It actually never had cocaine in it, the Smith is perpetuated by people who misunderstand science. Just because two different things have the same ingredients doesn't make them the same thing. Both Coca-Cola and cocaine have coca leaf extract as an ingredient. The difference is that Coca-Cola just has the extract without any processing cocaine on the other hand is processed to specifically
@@houseofactionIt actually did have cosine within it when it was created in 1886, and Pepsi had pepsin within it. These softdrinks were originally created by druggists as medicinal remedies. If you doubt me, then watch the Modern Marvel's episode entitled history of soft drinks.
@@davidcosta2244 Thank you for the clarification
They stopped putting it in the coke but were, instead, putting it on the cork lid liners. That's how the cola passed the cocaine test, but still numbed children's lips in the 1960's.
Pluto was the Romanized version of Hades
fun fact the Pentagon was the largest office building in the world for decades. you might want to react to some videos on the Pentagon's construction and history it's pretty cool
Yep, and it's not like the US was planning to get into WWII before Pearl Harbor and planning a large standing military... ;).
Yes, Pluto was Mickey Mouse's dog but Pluto is also the god of agriculture.
...and an ex-planet... RIP planet Pluto
I thought that Pluto was the god of d ath and Ceres was the god of agriculture.
Demeter is the god of agriculture@@bluflaam777
@@markreed392Demeter is the god of agriculture
@@jdwilmoth yep, you are correct. I had a brain hiccup.
I worked at a teaching hospital in the ICU. We hated July. The experienced residents would come through with interns. They told them not to worry, that if they had any questions just to ask the nurse, cause we wouldn't let them kill anyone. They were right, except the cocky ones tended not to ask. Them you had to keep an eye on.
Would university hospitals be included?
@@electricheartpony teaching hospital = university hospital................
In the hospital I worked the senior residents told the oncoming which floors and which nurses to rely on to help them out and to NOT PISS OFF THOSE NURSES.. a few pushed that point to their dismay.
Greek god Pluto is named after a God of the underworld. Fun fact, Pluto the dog was named before the planet
😮
Pluto is actually the Roman name - the Greek name was Hades.
The planet was named in May 1930, the dog first appeared in September 1930.
Ah! Phones!
Years ago, the guys on Myth Buster's had a segment in a hospital. They swabbed a huge variety of surfaces, and grew cultures. It turned out that the doctors' phones were dirtier than toilet seats.
Celery - negative value food unless you put cheese on it or dip it into some flavored dip.
Actually celery contain only 15 calories. Aside from that, celery contains dietary fiber, vitamin K, and small amounts of vitamins A and C, calcium and iron
Celery is bitter and stringy and disgusting… to me, anyway. Anyone who likes it can have my share of it on Buffalo wing night. Here, take my blue cheese dip too !
@@imweakfordeaky I'll take the bleu cheese. You can have my ranch. Thanks bro. The celery belongs in the trash though
Peanut butter.
Ya know, those ancient gods were gods of religions. People believed in them just as firmly as people believe in the current gods.
If it’s true…,
It’s not a myth.
Yes the Pentagon is indeed a pentagon. lol. Also the White House is white. :P
I'm a triplet, and my mother was 15 weeks early. They were going to take one of us out, and leave the other two in until 15 weeks later. So we would have been close to 4 months apart, born two separate years.
The military used the concept of a zombie attack for planning and training. It didn't have the political issues of using a random country. Plus, it would be more likely to keep the trainees' attention.
You have just insulted all the Atropians in Louisiana! :)
I did know that Albert Einstein played the violin.
Pluto is Mickey Mouse’s pet dog ❤
5:42 - And I thought one of my college classmates (descended from French aristocracy) had a long name. His initials are JJMRDdSCdBdSC.
And without saying how much cocaine that is, it means nothing. Because that cocaine is next to nothing.
It actually never and I mean never had cocaine in it it has always just had coca leaf extract in it.
@@houseofaction On it. 😀
@@houseofactionAre referring to the money or the coca cola? I assumed the original post was about the cash.
Peter North said his legendary loads were due to consuming large quantities of celery the night before😂❤😂
The Greek and Roman gods were part of different religions. Just an FYI.
Don't like peanut butter on celery, but I do love pimento cheese on celery.
Cheddar cheese spread
Pluto is the Greek god of death.
No Pluto was the god of the underworld.
@@garycamara9955 I thought so too, but Google said "dead". I figured, close enuf.
The planets were named after Greek and Roman gods, which were religious to the Greeks and Romans...Mercury was the god of travelers and thieves, Venus was the goddess of love, Mars was the god of war, Jupiter was the king of the gods, aka Zeus, Saturn was the god of agriculture, Uranus was the god of the sky, Neptune was the god of the sea, Pluto was the god of the underworld, aka Hades to the Greeks. Technically, Earth was known as Gaia, the mother of Zeus and the daughter of Uranus. The Greeks and Romans knew there was something in the sky and assumed they were the god watching down on us and assigned the different colored dots in the sky their names, not knowing they were planets in orbit around the sun. Also the Sun was called Apollo, the god of light and the moon was called Selene, the goddess of the moon. Most ancient cultures had pantheons of gods representing different aspects of life, like Thor was the god of thunder and lightning and Loki the god of mischief, which the American Indians god of mischief was Coyote and they had pantheons, too.
3:00 Well, I suppose that's *one* way to acc-celery-ate your weight-loss! 🤔
Albert Einstein wanted to be an musician and Ron Jeremy wanted to become an actor 😂❤😂
😊love y'all's vids happy to see y'all postin today
Sendin y'all some Oklahoma ❤to y'all's fam and all😊
Hopefully more consistently untill America than all three vlogs. Thank you for you nice message ❤️
I would add that since its a teaching hospital expect student way early doing pre-rounds to have answers for teacher later (and maybe 3 or 4 interns) and long long visit as every question asked. Heaven help you if you have something rare.
Coke is made with coca leaves (cocaine free extract now used)
and cola nuts
There was some evidence of the doctor finding a lose of weight of the body at the time of death. That was the first time & he was never able to replicate it.
My daughter is also a physicist, but started as a music major. She plays viola, cello and violin.
There's a funny line from the TV show, M*A*S*H: "The Pentagon - weird looking building - four walls and a spare."
I've always heard stories of people waking up in a bathtub full of ice and a cut in their lower back, only to learn that a kidney is missing.
The pentagon was made because there are (was) 5 branches in the US military. Army, Air force, Navy, Marines and Coast Guard. Recently the Space Force was also added. Now I want them to make it a hexagon.
There was no airforce in 1941, there was only the army's air corp. The Marines are still a Navy corp (hense the word "marine"), the original main role of marines was bording enemy ships and beach landings, basically all of the direct-combat roles of the navy, while navy sailors operated the actual ships [inc ships guns].
@TheDuckofDoom. While the marines do work with the navy very closely they are two separate teams. I know of someone who became a marine & they training is all marines till later on if I remember right.
@@carissadallke1345 The Marines official seal on the DOD website literally says "Department of the Navy" and the entire history of marines going back into the british hundreds of years is that they are navy infantry.
Also, the Navy is the only constitutional military force maintained in peacetime. A standing army is not to be maintained for more than 2 years in peacetime.
@@carissadallke1345 And yes it is common for those in the Marines to throw a tantrum when you point out that they are not actually their own branch. Even the name "Corp" means that it is a subset of another larger force.
I sympathize with you about the teething. I remember when my kids and then my grandkids were teething.
Pluto is the Roman equivalent to the Greek God Hades. Both are the God of the Underworld (Hell).
Pluto was the Roman God of Death...
13:29 it is also referred to a the 5 sided squirrel cage
All Presidents were born in the colonies or United States when the country was formed. Some have taken his comments to mean the early Presidents were born in England.
Pluto is the Roman name for Hades, god of the underworld.
#7: Haven't you seen the trope of getting drugged in Mexico, then waking up in a bathtub full of ice missing a kidney? They illegally harvested your kidney.
One interesting story about twins was the one about the twins born in different years. One was born shortly before midnight on Dec 31 and the other shortly after midnight on Jan 1. I imagine this has happened more than once
Club 33 opened in 1967, not1963. New Orleans Square wasn't built yet,and Walt who died in1966 never saw it completed.
Is that why we refer to celery as stomach brooms?
Walt Disney named Pluto, Mickey's dog after the newly discovered (then) planet. Pluto is the Roman version of the Greek God, Hades, God of the underworld.
The water in the microwave is pure water with low dissolved minerals. Add nucleation points in a smooth container to prevent it from occurring.
That hospital fact is true. I am a nurse and we hated July thru about Oct while we beat those residents into shape...
You can also drink water out of the tank of your toilet. Only clean water goes in and out of it.
Luckily at teaching hospitals they are more focused and aware of the latest medical science versus long term practicing doctors who may find it more difficult to keep up with the latest information or science.
And the door to Club 33 is not secret. It's right on the street in the New Orleans area right next to Pirates of the Caribbean, at least at Disneyland. The number 33 is prominently displayed. Also next door is the Blue Bayou restaurant. It's not hard at all to uncover the button and press. The hard part is having the reservation to get any further.
While discussing Van Buren he perpetuates another common false truth. George Washington was not the first president. John Hanson was the first president. It's forgotten that the US had a structure prior to the Constitution. It was the Articles of Confederation. John Hanson was the first president under that document which was the guide to federal government for the first 10 years of the United States.
2:06 *Most Americans use a microwave instead of a kettle. A Pyrex measuring cup. 4 minutes.*
6:28 *Imagine you are a scuba diver with two air tanks. One empty. One full. Which is heavier? The one with more air in it.*
I have a couple of comments.
1. One time after going ocean fishing, I cut up some raw fish into tiny cubes for treats for my cats. I put them in small freezer bags so I could get just a few at a time for them. So I labeled each bag, "CATS", so we knew they were for the cats. Any guests going into my freezer may have wondered if we were eating cats!😂
2. In Connecticut we had twins born in different years. One was born just before midnight on 12/31/2023 and the other was born just after midnight on 01/01/2024, just a few minutes from each other.
Esteban Julio Ricardo Montoya de la Rosa Ramirez, makes so much more sense to me now😂
I had a snake in my toilet near Houston Texas-- had a neighbor boy pull it out!
Water can flash to steam on the stovetop, too.
Millie's comment on smelling money was hilarious and had perfect comedic timing.
Yes, he's right on that. Mercury, herald and messenger to Roman gods, Venus Roman goddess of beauty and love, Mars Roman god of war, Jupiter king of Roman gods, Saturn, Roman god of agriculture, Uranus, Greek god of Sky, Neptune Roman god of the Sea. Pluto Roman god of underworld, (not really a planet though). Earth would have to be Gaia or Terra, and the moon would be Luna or Selene if we were consistent. The sun would be Sol or Helios.
The sun is Sol. The solar system is even named after it.
Science fiction stories use "Solarian".
The difference is that in stories where we've terraformed worlds like Mars, "Terran" is someone from Earth (Terra) specifically, while "Solarian" would include those from the terraformed worlds I the system.
@@aprilvoecks5877 Yeah, I decided to include the Greek alternatives for the Earth, Moon, and Sun.
#8 is incorrect: the first US president born a US citizen was John Tyler.
Tyler was born in 1790; the first one born after the adoption and ratification of the US Constitution (1789), which established the US as a sovereign nation.
Tyler's nine predecessors in office (Washington thru WH Harrison) were born on what is now US soil, but, because they were British colonies at the time, they were British subjects at birth (though they were all given posthumous retroactive US citizenship by an Act of Congress in 1976)
The Delaration of Independence established us as a sovereign nation, the Treaty of Paris of 1783 led to Great Britian recognizing it as such.
The US Constitituion just esblished a new form of government we were still a sovereign nation during the Articles of Confederation.
Van Buren was born in 1782 so you could make the argument we weren't a country yet since the British didn't recognize our independence yet so it would still be John Tyler.
Yes the pentagon. 4 walls and a spare. A monument to Murthy’s Law.
Don't give the Department of Defense any ideas. They'll get out of hand and build a dodecahedron two miles wide and tall enough to affect air traffic.
Yes, you were correct. The world trade center was 2 buildings. WTC Building 1 & 2. There were 7 WTC in the vicinity, 2 were direct hits, others were damaged or destroyed by residual damage. The 3rd building was the Pentagon at one of there walls. The Pentagon is massive & one of the largest in Washington DC. The size will be outdone by the newly planned FBI building. You should one day visit or look up the Apple building. It's a 64 acre (1.2million square feet) ring building.
Trafficked with Mariana Van Zeller ... there's an episode in this series about black market organs. It's worth binge watching all of them.
There is nothing common about these myths. I don’t think most Americans have heard any of this.
I can confirm Club 33. Had lunch there many times. Very nice place as you would expect.
I've always heard you should not drink water from the water heater but I guess in an emergency it's better than the toilet.
Growing up in a house with well water, any power failure meant no water. We knew it was clean water in the heater tank, but almost never used it because a power failure didn't last long.
Zombie apocalypse is a common training exercise these days so of course there are plans. Apparently it is more motivating for the trainees than realistic scenarios.
Pluto was the Greek god of the underworld.
It's very easy to super heat water in the microwave and hardly rare. It won't explode like a warhead. It'll sometimes tend to splatter violently.
It's very easy to do this, just nuke water then sprinkle salt into it.
Here is a good video about the pentagon. It is a really interesting building. I was stationed there in the late seventies for a couple of years.
Just because background processes burn more than the food doesn't mean it's negative calories. You're still adding calories to the system. If you eat celery during a fast day your reserves will end up with more than not eating at all.
The implication is (he didn't explain it well) that the act of chewing and digesting Celery consumes more calories than Celery contains. Making it negative.
Pluto is no longer considered a planet
Millie, your hair looks very cute like that 🥰
Hi
The joke is a new batch of 007's come in July.
How many people think the channel should be renamed, "Wait, What?!?!?"
😂😂😂
How is boiling water in s microwave an American myth
He meant water can EXPLODE when overheated in the microwave. I can attest to this fact.
@rich_t I get that but the name of this video is American myhs
George Dantzig was working on his PhD in statistics when this happened. I've always wondered if one of the reasons the two problems remained unsolved was they were being taught as "unsolvable". To him, they were just homework that was harder than usual. During his career, he developed the algorithm for Linear Programming.
There's a great KRplus channel with a guy who has 2 pet otters called Kotsumet (otter in Japanese) .
9:49 Pluto "isn't" a planet anymore and those ancient Roman and Greek gods and goddesses WERE religious figures to those people back then.
There used to be a lot of organ harvesting in Las Vegas.
A little confused. Why is the Picasso's name one of the American myths?🤔
Pluto is a Roman/ Greek god of the underworld.
Although different scenarios exist, most twins that have different birthdates are just the next day.
There was a case just this year in New Jersey of a pair of twins where one was born twenty minutes before midnight on new years and one was born twenty minutes after. So technically the parents can only claim one of them on their 2023 taxes 😅
No thsts not how the exploding water in a microwave works, it has to be distilled water and if any contaminate goes in the Super heated distilled water like dirt or just dust it will cause a reaxtion to make the Super heated eat boil and "explode" tap water won't do it
Rats can come up toilets too.
Don't ask me how I know.
If it hasn't been proved, then it's not a theorem!
There are sometimes statements that are called theorems (such as Fermat's Last Theorem) for various reasons, but for well over a century the discipline has been reasonably rigorous rule of "theorem = proved".
five sides. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard. One for each branch of the military.
Space Force?
Coke started out as a medicinal product. I have little cousins that are twins but one was born the day before the other so they have separate birthdays.
Good old "Cocaine Cola" 😂
I don't think I've ever seen a picture of the Pentagon that wasn't from above.
From the side it’d look like a wall.
7:28 Yes, Coca-Cola used to contain cocaine and 7Up used to contain lithium.
As A Nurse July is horrible time in the hospital because of the new interns lol Lots of catching mistakes to keep our patients safe!
#18: "Pablo Picasso's full name had 23 words."
Pfft -- that's nothin'.
French composer and conductor Louis-Antoine Jullien was baptized as follows:
Louis George Maurice Adolphe Roche Albert Abel Antonio Alexandre Noe Jean Lucien Daniel Eugene Joseph-le-brun Joseph-Bareme Thomas Thomas Thomas-Thomas Pierre Arbon Pierre-Maurel Barthelemi Artus Alphonse Bertrand Dieudonne Emmanuel Josue Vincent Luc MIchel Jules-de-la-plane Jules-Bazin Julio Cesar Jullien
The otter thing is cute but the reason they do it is they are related to honey badger and they are op,their intelligence rivals children thry hold hands cause the river flow will carry them off if asleep holding hands means if that happens 2 can find there way back
I always thought the Pentagon was built as it was because of the 5 branches of our military (now 6 btw). They were army, navy, airforce, marines, and coast guard (now spaceforce too). But I was wrong. The US airforce was created in 1947 and the building was built in 1943.
The piece of land they had to work with was bordered by 5 highways. So they built it to fit the land. It has 6 zip codes and it one of the most secure building in the US.
I live right near it - I once asked my phone where the closest Starbucks was and it tried to direct me to the one inside the Pentagon 😅
Also, the highways around there are extremely confusing. Everyone ends up in the Pentagon parking lot by accident at some point. There is always a bored twenty-something with fatigues and an AK who knows you're only there by mistake but has to ask you anyways.
The number one myth is that America is a free country...
#19...crickets...photo shows a katydid. 🙄
I’m allergic to celery so, oh well!
Legit thought that everyone was in the know about black market organ trafficking and am now seriously questioning the types of content that interests me 😂😅
That cocaine fact is crazy....I imagine fentanyl is on our money now.
Most cocaine is snorted, fentanyl is smoked!
You can’t be serious. You actually believed that the planet Pluto was named after a Disney character? And I thought education was bad in the US. Jeez!
No, was pointing out that there is a character named Pluto. Not that it was what helped name a planet
Pluto is the Roman name for the god the Greeks called Hades. Pluto, the planet, has been downgraded to a Dwarf Planet. That means that it doesn't have the mass (gravity) to clear it's neighborhood of debris. Our planet's actual name is Terra.
Almost all the planets are named after Roman gods.
Mercury - messenger god (Hermes)
Venus - goddess of love and beauty (Aphrodite)
Mars - god of war (since it's blood red) (Ares)
Jupiter - kibg of the gods (Zeus)
Saturn - father of the gods (Chronos)
Uranus - Greek god of the sky
Neptune - God of the sea (Poseidon)
Pluto - god of the underworld (Hades)
I'm surprised you hadn't seen the meme going around the last few years that says something to the effect of:
Not saying it was a bad idea to downgrade the planet named after the god of DEATH and the UNDERWORLD, but... [gestures to current situation of the world]
You guys are a cute couple. Reminds me of me and my fiancée's relationship
