QI - The Audience Corrects Dara O'Briain
^kymbos
Blame old biology books if you want, but rabbits WERE rodents(until 1912), and the triple point of water WAS 0°C (and still is on the old centigrade scale)
QI - At What Temperature Does Water Boil?
In a later show with Dara O'Briain they trapped him by asking for the temperature of the triple point of water; he again said it was 0°C. It's actually 0.01°C — apparently a lot of people wrote in after this show to complain about him getting points here, so they made sure they burned him for it later.
