Cozy channels on YouTube. The best YouTube channels about programming according to tproger
The phenomenal popularity of the YouTube service has given rise to a whole trend on the Internet - video blogging. The most popular channels on YouTube have several million subscribers and tens (or even hundreds) of billions of views. These fabulous figures give rise to even more fabulous rumors about the “rivers of gold” in which top YouTube bloggers bathe. Which, in turn, forces more and more new users to start their own channels on YouTube, post a lot of videos of ambiguous quality and content, and imitate “YouTube stars” in every possible way. This is happening all over the world, in Russia in particular. But the vast majority of channels on Russian-speaking YouTube do not have even a fraction of the popularity that the top 10 have Russian-language YouTube channels. In terms of the number of subscribers, the total “army” of these channels exceeds 77 million!
Well, now more about each of them.
Leader of the top 10 YouTube channels in Russia – Ivangay
This incredibly popular video blogger owns a channel of the same name (Ivangay, formerly EeOneGuy), which has as many as 11 million 798 thousand subscribers! Just a scary number.
As of preparation date this review The 310 videos posted by Ivangay on his channel have collected a total of more than 2.6 BILLION views (although he is only in 2nd place by this indicator).
How did the channel of the most popular Russian-speaking YouTuber start? No matter how trivial it may be, it’s from Minecraft let’s plays. If the last 2 words are unfamiliar to you, then (this is good) we are ready to “pump up” your erudition by telling you what it is.
So, the term “let’s play” is explained in Wikipedia as follows:
Those. a video blogger films him playing and commenting game process, and then someone watches it. If you ask yourself the question “Why is it needed?”, then it’s better not to ask. The let’s play genre is so popular that there are even special TV channels dedicated to this activity, and “streams” on video hosting sites attract millions of viewers around the world, bringing let’s play video bloggers millions of dollars.
Well, what is Minecraft? Again, let's ask the all-knowing Wiki:
To make it even clearer, this “indie game” looks something like this:
Again you ask the question “Who needs this”? Then you are either too old for “all this”, or simply not “in trend” :) As you will see below, Minecraft became the “launching pad” for the lion’s share of our top 10 Russian-language channels on Youtube.
The first video of blogger Ivangay dates back to March 24, 2013, i.e. he posted it 5 days after the launch of the channel on YouTube.
At first, the video only showed gameplay under voice accompaniment comments by Ivangay, but already from the 9th video the video blogger decided to “open his face to the world,” which was displayed in the corner of the screen. Vivid emotions, comments and cuteness of the “host” definitely contributed to the increase in the popularity of EeOneGuy’s videos on YouTube.
Thanks to whom did Ivangay’s YouTube channel become so popular? Of course, thanks to the main “consumers” of such content - schoolchildren and schoolgirls aged 12-15, who consider it their idol. Guys like to watch a person of the same age as them (or a little older) openly grimace for the camera or play and say whatever he wants, and girls squeal from “how cute Ivangai is.”
It is clear that the fame of Ivan Rudsky (yes, that is the real name of this blogger) is not some kind of spontaneous accident. Still, the number 1 video blogger on Russian YouTube does enough quality content: here is both staging and good mixing video, and high quality sound with a picture. Well, in the end, Vanya himself is never a fool.
An example of his video from a time closer to our days:
High quality, with humor, very interesting for many. The result is more than 9 million views of the 6-minute video!
This is the secret of success.
Let's move on to YouTube mastodon number 2.
No. 2 in the top 10YouTube channels in Russia - Masha and the Bear
No matter how strange it may be, the second by the number of subscribers and the first by the number of views in the ranking of Russian-language YouTube channels is an animated project, initially aimed “at TV”: 
Yes, yes, this is everyone’s favorite (especially for children’s audience) cartoon “Masha and the Bear”.
As of June 2017, the number of subscribers on the YouTube channel of this project exceeded 10.3 million people, while it has an unreal 12.1 BILLION views!
If the television viewer was first introduced to “Masha and the Bear” in January 2009, then the YouTube audience saw this cartoon in their “home field” much later: the Russian-language channel “Masha and the Bear” was created here on May 31, 2011.
Unlike many filmmakers and cartoons, the promoters of this project do not in any way interfere free access viewers to their brainchild. On the contrary, they contribute to the “viral” spread of the animated series on various resources, including pirated ones. The conquest of the YouTube space was also quite logical and visionary: it is not only popularization of the project, but also a good income from partnership with YouTube (display of advertising). Moreover, the creators of “Masha and the Bear” are waging a very cunning fight for views: for each episode of the cartoon, several “trailers” are pre-posted, which themselves gain from several hundred to millions of views. Well, uploading a full episode is guaranteed to have more than a million viewers.
Thus, the absolute record was set by episode 33 “Sweet Life”: 627 and a half million views!
Reasons for popularity and second place in the ranking Russian channels YouTube, we believe, does not need strong explanations: “Masha and the Bear” deservedly enjoys the attention of families with children thanks to its very high-quality execution: in less than 10 minutes, children are told another interesting, exciting and funny story with original and beloved characters. Mischievous Masha and poor Mishka, looking at whose adventures anyone will begin to smile, are concrete proof that the Russian animation school has not only not lost the heritage of the Soviet past, but is also capable of making a modern product that will be close to every child, no matter what language they speak. said. Proof of this is more than 10 foreign YouTube channels - clones of "Masha and the Bear", the views on which also number in the millions.
And, according to tradition, the first video from the channel:
Third place in the ranking of RussiansYouTube channels: CrazyRussianHacker
To be honest, we cheated a little by including this channel in our Top 10. The fact is that the only Russian here is the video blogger himself, a couple of dozen videos with a title in Russian, and the word “Russian” in the name of this YouTube channel:
All videos on the “CrazyRussianHacker” channel are made on English language with an indescribable Russian accent! In fact, the creator of the project, Taras Kulakov, actually comes from Ukraine. But, having moved to the USA to pursue the “American dream” and somehow came to video blogging, he nevertheless began to use the image of the “Russian guy”. This is understandable - stereotypes about Russians in the USA will clearly be better known than anything about Ukrainians (gentlemen, Ukrainians, if you are reading this now, no offense).
So, what statistics is this channel ready to boast of?
Subscribers - 9,905,572 (as of June 2017).
Number of videos – 1037! Bearing in mind that the channel was created later than the two “competitors” already discussed, Taras’s productivity is clearly higher. Although, given that there are still fewer views, we can conclude that he wins not by quality, but by quantity :)
Although in fact this conclusion would be erroneous - in terms of its usefulness, the CrazyRussianHacker channel will give a head start to both the already reviewed and less popular channels. His videos are full of various experiments, life hacks and reviews in the “Do it yourself” style, so there is simply an insane amount of useful information for the viewer. However, the trouble with YouTube is precisely that the vast majority of users come here to watch something “cool”, funny and not taxing on the brain, which is why such a useful channel loses so much to the same Ivangay.
How did the CrazyRussianHacker YouTube channel start? In May 2012, this video was posted:
Of course, this video didn’t even get 300 thousand views, but the style and presentation of the material are already visible here. And it's really interesting! With the growing popularity of the channel, the videos posted by Taras began to gain much more views. For example, this touching video with a “dog” - 6 million:
We strongly recommend that Russian-speaking users familiarize themselves with this channel; fortunately, the “subtitles” function will allow those whose English is not particularly “pumped up” to understand what our fellow countryman is saying in his videos.
Top 10 Russian speakersYouTube channels:SlivkiShow in 4th place
The SlivkiShow channel is another example of the triumph of a Ukrainian video blogger on YouTube. Since the channel was registered on December 11, 2012, it has accumulated as many as 8.5 million subscribers (as of June 2017). His 189 videos collectively collected 1 billion 214 million 470 thousand views.
And the videos on the SlivkiShow channel definitely have the coolest and most touching screensaver!
What does video blogger Yuri Yaniv talk about on his channel? The videos by this author are both interesting and educational. Some are even funny :)
The first video on the channel, for example, was about how to cope with the heat (relevant for many in the summer):
Here’s an interesting observation: if at the beginning of his “career” Yuri Yaniv actively starred in his own releases, then later his face disappeared from the videos, but his pets appeared - the cat Cookie and the hamster Styopa. This change of main characters had an extremely positive impact on the popularity of the SlivkiShow channel! After all, we all know that cats rule the Internet :)
Now the channel is actively developing, it clearly shows “following trends”, that is, coverage of the topics that are most interesting to everyone. So Y. Yaniv can be considered a very insightful person - after all, he knows how to attract more more subscribers to your "army".
All that remains is to wish him good luck, and YouTube more channels like this, which, instead of clogging up the brains of young people, bring real benefits in terms of the general development of viewers.
Middle Top 10 – channel “AdamThomasMoran
At the moment, the AdamThomasMoran channel has 8 million 308 thousand subscribers, who have watched a total of 1 billion 622 million views. What captivated young viewers so much?
Incredible Interesting Facts, interesting story? Nope, who needs that! But Max Golopolosov makes good jokes and simply swears masterfully! Well, what else can attract the attention of a 13-15 year old teenager who spends most of his time doing exactly the same thing. Okay, okay, let's not put clichés on the audience of this channel - we are just emphasizing its main - so to speak, distinctive - features. It’s just that no one else in our Top gives out such a “mix”.
The channel started on July 25, 2010. From the very beginning, the author stated that the idea was borrowed from the mega-popular American blogger of that time - Ray William Johnson. The essence of the idea: take several interesting and funny videos, demonstrate them to YouTube viewers and provide the whole hodgepodge with original author's comments. And the first video on the channel is proof of this:
Please note that neither the terrible sound nor the equally terrible picture quality prevented the video from gaining more than 8 million views.
However, Max quickly corrected the quality of sound and video, but left the “content” and the leopard wall unchanged throughout all 427 video recordings (as of June 2017).
With his successful experience, Max “infected” many YouTube users, who subsequently also became very successful on YouTube. Thanks to him, a lot of funny content appeared on the expanses of this service, for which we can say “thank you” :)
But enough about all the famous Maxim, let's move on to the next participant.
Sixth place in the top 10 Russian YouTubers – FROST channel
Video blogger FROST and his channel of the same name are another example of how popular the Letsplay genre is on the Internet. The vast majority of the 1,180 videos here are about the author (alone or with friends) playing video games. And yes, the name “Minecraft” appears many, many times here too!
As of June 2017, Frost's channel has more than 6.5 million subscribers, and the number of views has exceeded 2.5 billion. Just imagine how many people were sitting, staring at the monitor and watching the blogger play games! Well, isn't it wonderful?
Who is this Mr. Frost? This is a simple Nizhny Novgorod guy, Yuri Murlin, who in October 2012 decided that he, too, was ready to show the entire Internet how great he was at playing Minecraft and what kind of “head thoughts” he had while doing so. He, of course, poured out these thoughts into the ears of a grateful audience.
It is worth noting that Yuri Frost is not at all shy about showing off his face, loves to communicate with the audience and generally demonstrates in every possible way how cool he is. And, judging by the number of subscribers, many agree that “he’s cool.” Also, obviously, to grow the popularity of the channel, FROST is actively diversifying its content by filming “challenges”, parodies and simply fooling around on camera. Yes, yes, those who are just fooling around can also collect several million views.
The most popular video from the “frozen” YouTuber currently has more than 12.5 million views - this is how much popularity you can “grab” from the mention of another popular blogger.
What can you say about the channel in general? If you like to watch a young, confident jock play various games and have fun in other ways, this is the place for you!
7th place in the ranking of popular RussiansYouTube channels –ThisIsXorosho
It just so happens that often the top bloggers on Russian YouTube are not Russian citizens at all. We have already seen several Ukrainians here, now it’s the Latvians’ turn to make themselves known. And they declared! The Latvian team, known primarily for its presenter Stas Davydov, created a Russian-language channel in October 2010, which over the almost 7 years of its existence has grown to 6 million fans-subscribers! Both subscribers and other viewers watched 712 videos posted on the channel, a total of 1 billion 268 million 620 thousand times! And we are sure that both the army of the “This Is Xorosho” channel and the number of views will only increase.
The point is that the guys creating this project, really put all their talent into it. And, if at first the content looked “damp”, and the presenter did not show himself entirely confidently, then over time the show jumped not just over its own head, but over its head, and several more heads. Peculiar humor, a considerable amount of sarcasm, mentions of trending Internet events, interesting “author’s” inserts, the absence of ear-piercing obscene tirades - this is what makes a successful YouTube channel!
And it all started with this:
Well, after 5 years the show looks like this (feel the difference):
Oh, yes - we didn’t talk about the main thing - the format of the show itself. Remember Max +100500? His channel is also called AdamThomasMoran, and he is in our Top 10 YouTube channels in 5th position. So, This Is Xorosho is almost the same, only without the stream of obscenities and with “tricks”: Nastenka, Channing, Unshaven, “Russian videos from car registrators”, “Random comment” and much more. This channel reviews videos that have either gone viral on the Internet or are the most interesting of the videos that were sent to the channel by viewers. Yes, yes, the cunning creators of this channel simply ask viewers to send interesting “videos”, which will then be shown to them :) Brilliant? Not that word!
The audience of this YouTube channel is also not particularly respectable, but thanks to the more “intelligent” humor, the This Is Xorosho video is watched by people 25, 30, or more years old.
Let's be honest - we like this channel :)
Well, who is on the 8th line of our “Top”?
Top Russian channelsYoutube –TheKateClapp in 8th place
The idol of millions of girls aged 11-15 years, video blogger Katya Klap has 5.6 million subscribers on her channel of the same name. Ekaterina Trofimova (real name) won her audience with her spontaneity (often adjacent to deliberate infantilism), diversity of “characters” (Katya uses “stage images” of various characters invented by herself and performed by herself), abundance of thematic content (videos for girls – makeup, things, etc.). In general, we can say that the Youtube channel of the 24-year-old “vlogger” is an example of the successful implementation of acting, directing, and marketing talents!
TheKateClapp channel appeared on Youtube on December 6, 2010, and the first video on it was made in the form of a dialogue with an existing loyal viewer:
You shouldn’t be surprised by this presentation: the fact is that TheKateClapp is the second channel of the popular video blogger. The first one is called FoggyDisaster and it was launched 2.5 years earlier - on August 20, 2008. True, it did not gain such popularity, therefore it does not appear in our Top 10 most popular channels on YouTube.
In terms of the number of videos, Katya Clapp’s channel does not try to be “ahead of the rest” - in total, as of June 2017, there are 364 videos. But almost each of them collected more than 2 million views. Well, this “creation” of Katya Clapp has crossed, for example, the 8 million mark!
So cool :)
If there is a channel for girls aged 11-15, then somewhere there must be a channel for boys of the same age. And he is! Even two. They “rest” in the last places of our Top 10 most popular channels on Youtube in Russia.
9th place –Youtube channelTheBrianMaps
The channel with over 5.3 million subscribers belongs to a guy who will turn 18 on September 25, 2017! And the name of this young genius is Maxim Tarasenko. He took the pseudonym “Brian”, which then became the basis for the name of the channel.
What did you do on Youtube? this blogger, starting from June 2012, when the channel was launched? 13-year-old Brian started “let’s play” in Minecraft – i.e. followed fashion trends the then YouTube. And I was right. By the way, M. Tarasenko’s acquaintance with video blogging began not with the illuminated channel, but with the long-abandoned “Maxutko99”, which Brian launched a year earlier.
But let’s not talk about the past, because among all Maxim’s projects, TheBrainMaps made it into our Top 10.
So, as of June 2017, we have 288 videos, the total number of views of which is more than 600 million!
First video on the channel:
It is dated June 30, 2012 and has as many as 604.5 thousand views. For an “ancient” video it’s not bad, even very good.
As stated on the Internet, Brain is watched and loved not only for its trending videos (in addition to Minecraft and reviews of other games, the channel over the past 2 years has been replenished with challenges, sketches in the style of “My cat is trying to kill me” and even rap), but also for its abundance humor in the video.
You can appreciate this humor yourself by watching the video, which as of June 2017 received the maximum number of views on the channel, namely 18 million 187 thousand:
Among the latest creative researches, perhaps, it is worth paying attention to “Rep from a cheeky nanny”:
The blogger has been here for almost 18 years, and therefore he allows himself much more “daring” :) Well, if you pay attention to the comments, you will notice that the age of the viewers does not at all keep up with the age of the author.
However, we note once again that the TheBrainMaps channel has still found its grateful audience of 5 million, which means this is exactly the kind of content that the “mass consumer” of YouTube needs. And, of course, the influence of video bloggers like Maxim Tarasenko in releasing similar “teenage antics” onto the Internet is difficult to underestimate.
And finally, we move on to the “last” in our orderly row of top channels on Russian Youtube.
10th place in the ranking of the most popularYoutube channels in Russia:MrLololoshka
The MrLolololoshka channel can easily be put in first place in terms of the number of videos shot - there are an unimaginable number of them - 1263 pieces! Considering the date of creation of the channel - May 28, 2012, video blogger Roman Filchenkov turned out to be the most “hardworking” of all the candidates presented in our rating. True, this did not help him gain a foothold higher last place Top 10 Youtube channels.
There are a lot of reasons for this, but the main one, perhaps, is that the video blogger MrLololoshka has fallen behind the trends: while other top bloggers diversify their content in every possible way (the main thing is to catch the hype), the video genre on this channel has not changed over the years the last 5 years, not a bit: how Romka filmed his process of passing in 2012 computer games, and continues to shoot. The only thing that has changed during this time is the voice of the “leader”. It’s not surprising, because 19-year-old “Mr. Lololoshka” (date of birth: 04/17/1998) is becoming older every year than his main audience.
What about the statistics? 5 million 75 thousand 982 subscribers at the time of preparing our review, the total number of views on the channel is more than 1.3 billion - better than Brian, Katya Clapp and SlivkiShow!
We will also present the very first video on the channel - so to speak, “for show”:
How the channel will further develop from the last place in our ranking of the most popular Russian Youtube channels, one can only guess: the excitement around let’s plays is gradually subsiding - and this is reflected in the number of views of videos (for last couple years, their number has decreased significantly). Perhaps the comedy rapper MC’Lololoshka will soon conquer Youtube, or stand-ups and vlogs will appear on the channel - who knows where the “wind of hype” will take Roman Filchenkov?! In the meantime, the school YouTube audience can have fun watching an older idol play with toys for them.
That's it, the Top 10 is complete. Whether it was useful or interesting is up to you to decide! We will be glad to see your opinion in the comments :) Good content to everyone and safe internet surfing!!
P.S. If you want to find out for yourself the earnings of a certain channel that is not in our Top 10, we recommend that you read the review that was published on our website.

Dasha Tatarkova
Scientists and inventors today becoming the new rock stars. It turned out that understanding how the world around us works is not only useful, but much more interesting than it might have seemed from the school curriculum. YouTube in this sense is simply a storehouse in which you can find interesting information about everything from modern philosophy to astrophysics. We've found the most fascinating channels dedicated to popular explanations of the world inside and out.
PostScience
"PostNauka" is the first major popular science portal in Russian. Despite the fact that since 2012 the project of the year has grown into a huge website, the main backbone is a large collection of videos. Compared to many channels, PostNauka boasts an incredibly wide range of topics on which both single lectures and an entire course are filmed. All video lectures are uploaded on the official YouTube channel, and their text versions are available on the website. Leading Russian scientists talk about science and technology in the fields of astronomy, mathematics, physics, as well as the Russian language and much more - full list items can be found on the website. Perhaps the only drawback is the extreme academic nature of the approach: after all, it was not for nothing that we fell asleep at the university.
MinutePhysics
“Physics in a Minute” was invented by the American mathematician and physicist Henry Reich. The title is a little disingenuous regarding the length of the video, but this is completely unimportant - even the longest explainers of the channel are watched in one go. He already has almost 3 million subscribers, and all because Reich very clearly answers various questions regarding physics that can puzzle anyone: “Why is pink not a color?”, “What is the Higgs boson?” and finally, the most popular video “An object that cannot be moved, against a non-stop force - who will win”? Now the channel has a version in Spanish, as well as a sister project MinuteEarth, which, obviously, talks about entertaining earthly phenomena.
Kurzgesagt
"Kurz gesagt" literally means "in short" in German. A hint of a short video format is a win-win. Thus, even those not interested in science will not be intimidated by the complex or controversial topic in the title. The name of the channel directly indicates that the discussion will not last long. In general, Kurzgesagt is a design bureau run by Philipp Dettmer and Stefan Rether, specializing in educational animation. It's no surprise that their videos are not just educational, but also the most beautiful of all. Be prepared: after the video about what life is, existential stupor is guaranteed for at least half an hour.
Arzamas Academy
A young but important Russian project: Arzamas.Academy was launched at the beginning of the year - but it is no longer possible to imagine an intelligent Russian information space without it. However, the team, which includes Philip Dzyadko, Alexey Munipov, and, for example, prefers to call it not educational, but educational. The spirit of the old "rggush" school reigns here, but this does not mean that it will be boring. Essentially, this is an online university for those who don’t have much time, attention deficit, but a lot of interest. A new course is published once a week: from “Architecture as a Means of Communication” to “Crime and Punishment in the Middle Ages,” and for the really lazy, each cycle has a digest. Of course, “Arzamas” is, first of all, a very convenient and beautiful website, but the project also has its own channel on YouTube, where for now there is a series of videos about the classics of Russian literature.
AsapSCIENCE
Mitchell Moffitt and Gregory Brown are responsible for fast-as-can-be science. Before the damn dress of an unknown color appeared, sent from above to punish the Internet, the most popular video on AsapSCIENCE was “What came first - the chicken or the egg?” The channel is full of answers to similar, often paradoxical, questions. Their videos are edited touching pictures drawn with a marker on a white board. This approach well reflects the whole essence of the project: to answer, perhaps naive, but in fact interesting questions, which inevitably arise in thinking people, with the help of science. AsapSCIENCE has a sister project, AsapTHOUGHT, created by the same authors, who are also partners not just in work, but also in life. Openly gay scientists even made a touching video, in which they discuss both in the scientific field and on YouTube.
Vsauce
Over time, many successful YouTube projects grow into a whole conglomerate. This is the case with Vsauce, one of the most (if not the most) popular science channels on YouTube. It started out as a hodgepodge of formats and presenters, but it quickly became clear what was the most popular. In addition to the very first channel, created by Michael Stevens, who dedicated his life to educating people around the world, there are now two more that are run by other people. Stevens earned his popularity not only thanks to classic popular science and philosophical questions, the answers to which we are too lazy to look for and read in other open sources, but also thanks to his charisma and manner of presentation, which made watching his videos a real pleasure. We also recommend watching his TED talk, where he talks more about his mission and educational YouTube.
Mental Floss
Mental Floss is everything at once: YouTube channel, popular blog, books, T-shirts and, of course, the magazine that started it all. What they do best is compile various facts to fun lists: in video format they are especially easy to perceive. The creators' area of interest is the widest; here you can find the most interesting facts about alcohol, English words that are most often pronounced incorrectly, popular quotes, and what not. Essentially, it's the internet's favorite format of random encyclopedic knowledge told in an entertaining way. One of the successes of the channel is the popular author of youth literature John Green, who is its face. After a couple of weeks of regular viewing, you're easily at the party.
PBS Idea Channel
PBS Digital Studios is whole network YouTube Channels, which brings together various content creators, helping them make professional online videos. Idea Channel is obviously the best of them. It was invented by Mike Ragnetta, who has repeatedly received the Webby Award for his services to the Internet. This result looks well deserved, since Ragnetta promotes a critical approach to modern pop-cultural phenomena and always tries to find an unusual angle to examine the topic. Each video begins with the phrase “Here’s an idea”, then voices main topic video. The creator of the PBS Idea Channel doesn't just talk out loud about the philosophical and cultural issues that concern him - his videos are especially valuable because he explores the subject in detail, citing many authoritative researchers in the philosophy of culture from antiquity to the present day.
Stuff Mom Never Told You
Another channel that is part of a large creative network. Stuff Mom Never Told You is a sister program of HowStuffWorks, designed to educate while entertaining. In the vast field of interests of its creators, Stuff Mom Never Told You occupies a specific niche. The creator of the blog and YouTube channel of the same name, Kristen Conger, talks about cultural and scientific social phenomena that concern her as a woman. Kristen's pro-feminist videos touch on a variety of current issues in modern society, from heels to abortion. Conger actively communicates with readers and viewers and always does detailed research on facts before using them in his work. She and her partner also produce a podcast, which can be found on their website.
Veritasium
Derek Mueller's YouTube channel brings together the most interesting things to say about modern science and engineering. He chose an obvious name for it: veritas in Latin means “truth.” Thus, masquerading as an item on the periodic table, Veritasium becomes the “element of truth.” Muller not only answers obvious and not so pseudo-scientific questions, but also often inserts interesting practical experiments into his videos. It's the combination of an engineering approach, interviews with experts like Nobel laureate physicist Brian Schmidt or astronaut Chris Hadfield, and popular science that makes his videos so interesting. Most Favorite Segments on Veritasium - social surveys, showing exactly what ideas about science exist among a wide audience.
Crash Course
Channel created by the Green brothers: John and Hank.
