Nature's Glory I Trees With Deeds, Ducks Solving Murders, Time-Traveling Islands & More


This video highlights some of the world’s strangest true stories, from the loneliest tree on Campbell Island to Indonesia’s wildlife-dividing Wallace Line and Kiribati spanning four hemispheres. It also features a self-owning tree in Athens, dolphins appearing to get “high,” voting buffalo, pebble-proposing penguins, and even a duck that helped solve a 1911 murder. 

Humans & History #2 | A Bear Soldier, Caesar Kidnapped, the Slinky & More


History isn’t neat, it’s chaotic and wonderfully human. From Wojtek the WWII bear corporal to Julius Caesar mocking pirates, accidents like the Slinky, and pioneers like Emma Nutt, the past is full of absurd brilliance. Add striking workers, sneaky pet bears, pizza’s rise, molasses floods, and bizarre trials of dead popes, and one thing’s clear: history has always been messy, bold, and unforgettable. 

Humans & History #1 | Beer Floods, Time Loops, Horse Politicians & More


This video explores moments when history feels oddly modern, absurd, and relatable. From a composer looping one phrase 840 times to beer floods, pineapple status symbols, and clay-tablet complaints, the past is full of chaos. You’ll meet truth-telling fools, drunk policy debates, hippo invasions, snow vocabulary, and eccentric emperors—proof that people have always been ambitious, strange, and hilariously human.
