Probably vegans, but begs they were domesticated around eighty five BC. Yeah,
11
00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:58.159

00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:11.040
the belly and the sides and all that the fatty part.
17
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:13.439
But that's the good part too. Now there's this town.

There was this town. It was an English town. It

00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:23.359
could go an entire year without fighting with his wife.
22
00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:26.000

00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:45.199
Best Picture Oscar All Right, what happened on August the
42
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:47.719
twentieth Now, in the year one thousand, the country of
43
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:51.120
Hungary was actually created. Stephen the First established it as
44
00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:54.240
a Christian Kingdom got the name Hungary from the people
45
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:56.439
that lived in there, the Hungary of people. Yeah, I
46
00:02:56.520 --> 00:02:59.919
think they had enough food. Now this is holding your
47
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:04.199
politicians accountable. That's right, for their access sixteen seventy two
48
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:07.159
in Holland. Now they were easily invaded and taken over
49
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:10.439
by an alliance of countries led by France and Spain.
50
00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:13.479
The military, yeah, didn't put much show a fight up. Well,
51
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:16.120
then the people of Holland they kind of realized that
52
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:18.759
you know what our Prime minister Johann de Witt and
53
00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:23.080
his brother cornelis. Yeah, they had neglected their the army. Yeah,
54
00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:25.800
they made them easy pickings, you know, an easy takeover.
55
00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:28.159
So a mob formed and they went and grabbed a
56
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.520
Witt and his brother and they lynched them. Then they
57
00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:34.120
cooked them, then they ate them. They even roasted their livers.
58
00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:36.879
So remember that the next time you're a politician talk
59
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:41.039
about cutting defense spending. Yeah, our politicians are pretty grossly
60
00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:42.560
I don't think you needy want to eat them. Yeah,
61
00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:46.479
I think we'll just stick with bacon. Nineteen thirteen, Frances
62
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:50.000
Adolphine pugad He became the first pilot to parachute from
63
00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:53.159
an airplane. Oh, The plane's owner wasn't too happy about it, though,
64
00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:56.240
he said he could have landed that plane safely. Adolphine said,
65
00:03:56.400 --> 00:04:00.280
we'll never know. Nineteen twenty, the American Professional foot Ball
66
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:02.599
Association was for him. Two years from now, it's going

00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:05.400
to become the National Football League or the NFL. Jim Thorpe,
68
00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:09.039
he was the first president. Nineteen sixty six, a couple
69
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:11.360
of days after John Lennon had said that the Beatles
70
00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:14.280
weren't popular than Jesus. Well, the Beatles were scheduled for
71
00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:17.720
a concert in the US Bible Belt, Memphis, Tennessee. Now
72
00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:20.319
the Beople Beatles, they should have canceled that. See the
73
00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:23.040
memphiside is. They thought Jesus was more powerful than the Beatles.
74
00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:26.360
Throughout the entire concert, the Beatles were pelted by rotten fruit,
75
00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:29.759
firecrackers or flashballs. I think Jesus would have saw that coming.
76
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:33.079
Nineteen sixty eight, two hundred and fifty thousand Soviet Union

00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:37.120

He did a lot of other voices, but kind of
108
00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:09.040
hard to top Fred Flinstone.
