The two scarfed reoccuring stick figures are named Karl and Henry!

@juxyper

the scary part about this is scrolling through these and thinking that maybe volcanoes or hurricanes are the worst kinds of disaster, and you look at like "huh, heat wave? isn't that a common thing?" and then you realize it kills like tenfold the scarier disasters

@mikeykwaak272

It's easily visible how your art has improved over these months, it almost looks like animation sometimes, especially with that scene where those two people threw the snow! Love to see it, keep up the good work :))

5:50 Peru mentioned, sadly for the 1970 Yungay earthquake + avalanche :(
Some facts about it (I'm Peruvian and live near Yungay):
- The earthquake was so intense it literally made a huge chunk of the Huascarán snow mountain (highest tropical snow mountain in the world) fall off, bringing rocks, whole trees, etc, until it reached the town of Yungay and basically buried all of it.
- Nowadays, the place is called camposanto (cemetery) and it is a memorial for the victims. Some remains are the old church's walls, pieces of trains, and four palm trees from the main square. Almost everything else was completely destroyed.
- Some people survived by escalating to the old cemetery, which had a Jesus Christ statue and was at high altitude.
- Lots of children survived because they were at a circus that came that day. When the earthquake hit, the children tried to run off to the main square and look for their parents, but the circus staff kept them inside, as it was far from the avalanche spot. Most children were later adopted by foreign families.
- The earthquake happened on a Sunday afternoon, where more people were at Yungay than usual because of market trading which was common on weekends. Yungay used to be the center of commerce in the nearby cities.
- That day (May 31st) became the National Day of Solidarity and Reflection on Disaster Prevention, since lots of cities and even other countries helped the affected people.

I used to call hurricane katrina “the rainbow tornado” because of the rainbow colored meteorology chart

@ChloeFalco-d5l8c

great video! you really packed a lot of information into just 12 minutes. it's impressive how you explained complex topics so clearly. however, i wonder if simplifying things this much might lead to misunderstandings about the severity and nuances of each disaster. sometimes, it feels like we gloss over important details just to fit everything in. it’d be interesting to see a deeper dive on some of these topics in future videos!

You forgot a natural disaster: Someone else scrolling through your camera roll.

@thatotheeagleeyed

Your illustrations improved exponentially

@hjglockner

Love the artstyle! Very educational and fun!!!! Subscribed!!!!!

it’s always a good day when Paint Explainer posts

@theominouspigeon

can you do every pure metal?

@EveloGrave

Damn, that art is stylized and slick as hell. Great job.

9:56 a pyrocumulonimbus cloud can definitely put out some fire with the rain, but it can also strengthen the main fire by drawing in tons of surrounding air into the low pressure area of the updraft. There's even been genuine tornados generated by them

@the_spider_in_your_bed

i have the feeling he discovered how to make sharp edges and now has fun drawing them and i love it

4:07 the hurricanes in history: I AM NOT A TORNADO ASS THING I AM A SWIRLING CLOUD JUST PUT A DAMN ICOOOOOOOON

@Tannerlikesairplanes

You said tornadoes and hurricanes are both cyclones. However cyclones are basically hurricanes that rotate counterclockwise because they appear near Australia in the southern hemisphere

@geonsilberlicht4632

Are you under some sort of impression that tornadoes are downdraft winds? Yes, rearflank downdrafts are a thing in tornadic storms. They may be important to tornado formation, though there are more important air currents than that one, like the streamwise vorticity current. Unlike what your sketch suggests, it has nothing to do with the funnel itself, which is a region of extremely low pressure (hence the condensation) and essentially an extremely quickly spinning updraft.

@LeniNuttall

great video, super informative! I loved how you broke down complex topics into just 12 minutes. but honestly, do we really think humans can prepare for every type of natural disaster? it seems like we keep facing the same issues over and over again.

@MaslinChara

what a fantastic video! the way you broke down each disaster in such a concise format is impressive. however, i can't help but wonder if simplifying these complex issues might gloss over the nuances that contribute to each event. some might argue that understanding these details is crucial for effective disaster preparedness and response. what do you all think?
