Heyyo, we'll be recording an aftershow for this video sometime this week. 

Leave any questions you have about the video (production, impact, etc.) or literally anything else in the comments. Some background info: I made this video concurrently with glasses and it was a nightmare that I'll never do again.

how fahrenheit fails you

Become a champion with 3M: https://bit.ly/3BBsBFs The Fahrenheit versus Celsius debate has plagued the internet since the start... but what if it misses the whole point? In this video, Sabrina explores the invention of temperature, learns how other meteorological metrics impact how we feel in the heat (or cold), and finally learns how to dress for the weather.

(Tremendous video, was very fun, dynamically created, great as always, forced me to confront my feelings that Celsius is superior, etc. etc.) Can we talk about the animation at 7:03 of an MS Paint interface with Windows menus contained in an MacOS-style window? Masterful.

Juan

Is this like a 2022 version of a rick roll? Either way, I love it

DrAmi

Can we see a PDF version of the outdoor guide for indoor kids? I really would like to see the full chart in all its glory :D

Michael Orgill

How do you come up with the video's chapter / section titles? It's such a small thing, but they add to the hilarity big-time for me :D

Jeremy Krall

PDF version? How about the next AIP product for sale!

Jeremy Krall

So which is better, Celsius or Fahrenheit?

Yoav Zack

At which point did you understand "Celsius vs Fahrenheit is no longer the point of the video?"

Emily Alice

Amazing video! I related to it so hard 😂 Originally I thought "I don't have this problem, because I don't go outside that much." When Sabrina realized her problem was not going outside enough, I started wondering if my level of indoor-kid-ing might be at a concerning level 😅 Your entire section about the mysteries of tiny technology also perfectly captured my confusion over how the heck anything works. Thank you for this great video! Really enjoyed the sponsorship as well. And your energy was A+ as usual Sabrina. Really love your chaotic presenter vibe 💯😁👍

Alex Cross

Is your outdoor guide for indoor kids available?

Judith

Sounds like you really had a researching nightmare with the glasses and temperature videos. So my question is what do you do when you need to take a break from research?
