Hey everyone, I think this comminity is relatable to us, as me and the family are excited about this channel we've created, called “The World We Live In” where we dive into the strange, surprising, fascinating and sometimes dark corners of history, nature, and human behavior.

It's basically a family hobby, but we're trying to actually make it entertaining. We're dropping a new video every week.

It’s not a typical documentary channel. The videos are more narration-style, with a mix of curiosity, facts, and a touch of dark humor. The best thing is, each family member has been running a different Series, like:

“Story Behind Countries Names & More” – how nations got their names, plus the culture, food, politics, and quirks behind them.( France is the first video of this series, already out: https://youtu.be/FtnxSlayZnU?si=eUNCYmRNvt78uktF )

"Obscure Curiosities" - A series where we dig into the forgotten, the bizarre, and the strangely overlooked moments in history, like the 10 days that vanished days the calendar ( That’s the first video of this series, already out: https://youtu.be/YJMrHEzDdms?si=q8fuFNoODl1s8__m )

“Suspicious Minds” – exploring conspiracy-style theories, like, for example lottery manipulation ( That will be the first video of this series, already scheduled to come out, soon )

“World’s First Evers” – digging into the very first evers in History, that people might have not ever thought about, like the first photograph ever taken. ( That’s the first video of this series, already out: https://youtu.be/yFwBcykJaYc?si=MP4oGmK8o4wETvzy )

“Nature’s WTF Files” – bizarre natural events, like fish falling from the sky or blood rain. (That’s the first video of this series scheduled to come out, soon)

“Why Do We…?” – everyday human behaviors we never question, like "Why do We Yawn?" ( That’s the first video of this series, already out )

I’m not here to spam links, just wanted to share what we're building with people seem to be into this kind of weird/fascinating stuff. If that sounds like your cup of tea, the channel’s here, hope you like it and subscribe: https://youtube.com/@theworldwelivein01?si=aInhAq8Ybjxn7eLI

If you have any ideas of new topics relatable to one of the series, just drop them on one of the comment section of one of the videos related to your idea.

Also,if you could pick/suggest another series that fits into the channel’s content, for us to cover next, what would you like to see?

Finally, if you're a content creator who creates similar content, let me know, we would love to check your channel as well. Thanks.

Between 1908 - 1940s, Sears offered 'build-it-yourself' home kits through their catalog. Each kit came with plumbing, wiring, heating, and all. Many of these DIY homes are still standing strong today

My pup, the cavapoo and my son’s pup, the corgi, did this last night. It started a minute before I started filming, so about 4 minutes total!. They locked eyes the entire time and were so slow and methodical, like a dance. The corgi could have easily ripped the rope from my pup, she is very strong. I would love to get opinions as to what you all think was going on

With my artworks, I try to encourage people to protect and cherish nature and show their deep connection with the environment. Wildflowers, which are invisible in our daily routine, hide a sophisticated beauty that I wanted to convey. Do you have your favorite one? Couch Grass, Goldenrod or Poppies?

I just found out about the Saudi "Sleeping Prince", it's so fascinating

Today I stumbled across the story of Prince Al-Waleed bin Khalid bin Talal — called "Sleeping Prince" of Saudi Arabia. Apparently, he’s been in a coma since 2015 after a car accident, but his family has kept him in life support till date, still holding onto hope for his recovery. There are even videos where he seems to slightly move a hand or a foot, and they see it as a sign he might wake up someday.

I don't know what to think. It blows my mind that someone could be kept alive for so long, and it raises so many questions about life support, recovery, and ethics.

Has anyone else heard about this? What do you think? I'm genuinely shook.
