Unbelievable Coincidences That Changed History

What do you mean they changed history? Did Doc Brown reach out to them?

And recently a head turn stopped what would be WWIII...

Few of these involve coincidences. They are pretty interesting anecdotes, and could be called big changes that resulted from seemingly small events. But that doesn't mean a coincidence.

You left out the best part of the English defeating the Spanish Armada which was as the Spanish were approaching & word was sent to Sir Francis Drake as he was playing a game of bowls (basically bowling outside) & he decided he’d finish his game before heading to his ship to go fight off the Spanish. Idk why but that’s one of the most British things I’ve ever heard.

You missed the forgotten manuscript that described the entire life of Genghis Khan (actually Chinggis Khan), that was considered gibberish for centuries before a Chinese scholar realized that the reason it made no sense was it was Chinese characters that phonetically represented the sounds of the Mongolian language

I'm an East German. I left illegally and I watched this fall of the Berlin Wall unfold on television with tears in my eyes. I had come to the USA with my grandparents. My grandma married an American Soldier. They claimed custody of me. Now, with the wall down, I could see my Mom, Dad, and two Brothers again(plus uncles, aunts, etc). It was surreal and it was the most emotional moment I had watching the news before 9/11, and I had graduated USMC bootcamp in that same year of the terror attack(2001, joined in April).

I just subscribed you just because of your very long intro.

If I hadn't stayed awake for exactly 32 hours, drank that exact bottle of scotch, driven my car exactly 145 km/h...

Well come to think of it, being allergic to Mold Juice seems much more likely then being allergic to Penicillin.

The King Tut story gives me hope that one day in a few thousand years people might actually see me as an important discovery.

Hey, chill dude! I just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy your content. Like, a lot actually. And I hope you will have a really amazing day. Yeah. Just wanted to leave this here.

The Big Shabowski

The assassination of Franz Ferdinand didn't start World War 1, it was used as an excuse by the British ro rally a war. British aristocrats and bankers had been trying to scapegoat Austria-Germany for over decade to justify a war to take down the German Empire as the world's new economic hegemony. Even the Serbian arrack was linked by means of a lie, and that has all been declassified and revealed now. The British even tried to blame the Russian-Japanese War on Germany.

A similar lie was used to get America into the war. The sinking of the Lusitania was completely justified as an act of defense, because it was warship full of weapons. The allies changed the rules in 2017 do retroactively claim the sinikng was an act of war to justify America joining.

At the end of the day, wars start because of how politicians respond to another group or country. The Civil War for example happened, because Lincoln and his administration wouldn't agree to a two nation solution after the attack on DC. Had a peaceful solution been determined instead, the dissolution of The Confederacy would have been slower and less deadly.

The thing that makes the #1 coincidence (Assassination of Archduke Ferd) not that important , imo, is that, unlike the with the others, that war was destined to start sooner or later. I think the assassination hastened the inevitable beginning by a few weeks or months, that's all.

WWI was an inevitable conflict that was coming. The Arch Duke’s assassination set it in motion. But if he didn’t. Something else would have. Maybe it would have been delayed a year. But that was going to happen.

This is my new favorite channel and i stopped watching all most everything

Do you expect our attention span to be that high for the intro??? Relax

Howard Florey did more to increase the development and production of Penicillin during WWII than Fleming ever did, such as flying to the USA with a sample to get the mass producers of pharmaceuticals to produce it in huge quantities

You did NOT want to be Catholic in Scotland in 1588

wow the best🤍🤍🤍

"Capitalism builds walls to keep bad ppl out. Communism builds walls to keep good ppl in."

We like to connect a lot of events to one single moment, as if those events wouldn't have happened without it. Truth is, Europe was on the brink of war, and everyone was looking for a reason, an alibi to attack. If Gavrilo Princip had failed, the world would have found another reason to set itself on fire. Not to mention that Princip wasn't alone, it was a thorough group effort.

None of those are coincidences. Coincidence is when two events relate with each other in curious way. Like Lincoln being shot in Ford's Theater and Kennedy in a Lincoln car.

Thanks.

Makes you wonder how much history has been destroyed because it didn't fit narrative doesn't it?

I keep wondering what happened to the water boy, bet he died poor and fkd up

The Berlin Wall shows how much power and oppression comes not from dictators or politicians, but from the people doing their bidding. These soldiers could have opened the gates at any time. People "just doing their job" is the biggest evil in this world.

They told me to visualize. To script. To “trust the process.”
But the process never made sense.

Then I read Secret Manifestation Code by Colin Granston.
Suddenly, I understood the mechanics behind “belief” itself.

Most people are trying to build a new life with broken tools.
This book upgrades the entire toolbox.

These aren't really coincidences, but rather butterfly effects.

narration sounds very much like a bot

This and mind blowing coincidences in history are my favorite videos from you!❤

Because of chance, most of history never happened. Let that roll around in you noggin'.

Your videos nurish and provoke my ADHD

I get the joke of drawing sedans for the archduke's car float and all, but it seems off, that for all other entries and even even most videos, they adhere to a certain historial accuracy., so what's my problem with this, that there might be kids who think Franz Ferdinand was really rolling in a sedan

Not sure No. 1 spot was deserved. Sure it was lucky, but Princip still set out to kill the archduke on that day… it was fully intentional and planned

Penicillin would've 100% when discovered eventually. What a ridiculous thing to say that it would be gone forever if not for one man

"Let's get right into it"... never gets old

The production value keeps getting better with each upload. Impressive growth!

How about that time a single cell swallowed a bacteria that didn't get digested but continued to live inside the cell producing energy for the cell.....the first and so far as we know only time a eukaryot developed, which became the ancestor of all complex life.

Before I even started, I knew it was gonna have my boy archduke ff

“The Tomb of King Toot’n Camoon”

Didn’t wanna mention that number three's name is the Rosetta Stone? lol tf?

Sean Munger has a great video about how the archduke’s assassination wasn’t a coincidence at all. That guy was standing right there on that corner knowing the motorcade was en route to the hospital.

I was a child in West Germany when the wall came down. I remember watching it on the news with my parents. It was an amazing thing to see.
