"Why was king tut's head flat" Me: Incest The video: Head binding Me: Head Binding
-
He speakin' in cursive
-
And here's the real answer: He was a gamer and his head got dented from him wearing his headset so much
-
This gentleman is so nice and clear in his explanatios, I loved hearing him.
-
Their fashion was next level. We change clothes, they change skulls.
-
King Tut is just quietly observing the whole thing.
-
Looks like he's been wearing his gaming headset for too long
-
"Head binding has no negative impact..." You've never seen one of these folks trying hats on, have you?
-
me at 1:30am: i should be sleeping also me: hmmm, why DOES king tut have a flat head? 🧐
-
king tut had a flat head cause he did bitchin head spins when break dancing.
-
when you start losing hair and get bold, you discover the real shape of your head and then you start watching videos like this.. and thats why im here..
-
I can listen to this man’s voice all day. So soothing.
-
came here for king tut, got a lesson on birth
-
His hair is whiter than his shirt, holy moly
-
I loved the expression on Emily's face as the Professor described the movement of the baby's skull as it passed through the birth cannel. Obviously, she has never given birth ... And, after his explanation ... she never will!!! LOL
-
Grandpa: people now are extrem with doing tattoo's and piercing we didn't do this thing back in the day People back in the day: HEAD BINDING
-
Makes perfect sense, they did this in secret because the pharaohs were venerated almost as gods by the people so of course they had to show up in public with different skull shapes and the people were like "Ohhhhh wow, look at them, they are demigods!"
-
his voice makes this feel like the most interesting thing in the world
-
I like the old guy, usually elder scientists are so damning it's suffocating, but this chap seems to have intellect with a more down to earth and not extreme to accommodate the alien nonsense. I believe there's life in the solar system, but it's not like we imagine, it could be vastly different from us, our life was created by the right combinations at the right times and is unique, other life forms like us could be impossible to recreate.

I’d love to see more from this guy! He has an awesome energy and so much knowledge. Awesome video!
