    Unfinished London will still not be finished.

    I like to imagine that you were visiting India for unrelated reasons years ago and decide to take the opportunity to say "Here, in India" in the case that you ever needed a clip related to India.
  • @icehawk3442
    The part where they subtly but abruptly turned into weathermen is absolutely gold
  • @ash36230
    Tom Scott and Map Men on the same day right after each other? Nice
  • Imagine explaining to the government why Mark needs to go to India to say 3 words.

    The map of the future supercontinent has an uncanny resemblance to Tamriel from the Elder Scrolls universe if you just got rid of all the major islands.
  • @sander_bouwhuis
    I love the deadpan humoristic exchanges between the two of you. Learning things in a pleasant package certainly helps!
  • @pancharder1592
    I like how their eyebrows get increasingly bigger during the bit where they explain where the continents may move to
  • @adhdtravels01
    “The continents haven’t always been this well socially distanced.” Ah what a time to be alive.

    "While he was still dead" implies he came back to life later on
  • 0:46 for those who are wondering it said

    Well, it's a combination of that and the fact the having access to the sea is really important for a country to thrive and not be conquered by its neighbours, so any territory that finds itself double-landlocked probably won't last as an independent country for ling. Anyway, don't worry about that, the point still stands about the way the world's landmass is spread out.

    "But rocks alone weren't solid enough"

    That pun hit me like a boulder.
  • @thesung7059
    “180 Million years ago, before the Second and First World War, the world looked like this” I mean, that is correct.

    I said to the primary school teacher who I had for two years over 60 years ago that it looked like South America fitted into Africa and he told me about the moving continents. At the time it was still contentious but I only found that out later. My guess is that he read the New Scientist. Wonderful teacher (except when it came to PE).

    my guy went to india just to film himself saying "here in india"

    I live in Australia and even I thought Australia was actually moving down to Antarctica. My childhood dreams of seeing peguins in my backyard have been crushed.
  • @kloii
    I love your videos so much! You put so much effort in to them and it's very much noticed and appreciated. Please keep them coming!

    The ancient tree genus Araucaria is found in South America and Australasia. When the two regions were part of a single landmass.
