In the video description it says that's actually the 2nd oldest film ever made. The 1st was filmed by the same person but the film was lost... And only photographic copies of this film survived until today.

Useless knowledge:

43% of statistics are completely worthless.

 

[TorchTheElement]

Most statistics are made up on the spot, and are thus, untrue.

Farmville players outnumber real farmers at a ratio of 50:1

 

[TorchTheElement]

That ratio is believable

Farmville is a knockoff of Harvest Moon from Natsume and Nintendo, but is not as open as HM.

 

[Bronzong#1]

Sunkern has the lowest base stat total of any pokemon

Probably about the most useless knowledge I've ever had the pleasure of learning /sarcasm would be a 65 page chapter on legacy database systems and techniques that were accompanied by challenging and tedious homework. The last paragraph of the chapter goes to say what we just read were outdated standards/practices that we wont ever run into or hear about but a "brief" history lesson is always useful...

I've been raging since.
