I never heard the one about the fan. I am glad it is not true because I would have been dead thousands of times 15-20 years ago.

wow, Google translate actually recognised that as Finnish lol, but it didn't translate it What does it mean?

I might be okay with the spiders, as long as they kill some bedbugs first.

you win a prize

Ha, I love that last one. In unrelated news, the bottled water industry is one of the most destructive and twisted ones out there.

Good sift, anything that debunks myths is okay with me. But I had to scroll down and just listen to the audio, I hate these rebus videos, where the images and text are edited to keep pace with the narrative. I'm not an infant, you don't have to wave a colored rattle in my face to hold my interest, hopefully your content should be enough to do that.

yay for seven-legged spiders

City tap water tastes like hell, and most bottled water (which more often than not IS tap water) contains salt to make you thirsty so you'll drink more. Don't believe me? Check that fancily named Dasani bottled water's ingredients. Makes me so glad I have a number of local springs that produce very high quality water that I get delivered monthly.

Uhh, you guys realize the last one was a joke right?

I did enjoy the map of South Korea. Although, I guess it still doesn't count as 'man-made, visible from space'.

Ha! Plava Laguna!

Uh, no. I actually have a mineral tester (Christmas present) for water. Bottled water is better than tap in terms of dissolved solids, and unless you think that bottled water companies are lying about the trace mineral contents in their water, the amounts are too small to matter. There's far more salt in Coke, or worse, V8 (http://www.livestrong.com/article/273911-sodium-levels-in-soft-drinks/).

The person making the video thinks that in "functioning democracies" the tap water is always safe to drink. Well yes, it is. On average. Unless you happen to live in a house that gets mud in the water supply, like a friend of mine, or my in-laws' house (guess who gave me the tester?) in Los Angeles where the tap water is light yellow, and fizzes. I only drink filtered or bottled water there.

Spiders ALSO love warm, moist places? HIGH FIVE! (x8)

Another reason it is fake:

The source book where the myth originated from in 1954, has no mention of mouth, swallow, or anything related to this myth. In fact, the author of the insect book clearly labels spiders as not insects.

So the snopes about a spider myth is debunked with its own urban legend debunking.

You are the world's biggest fool if you pay for bottled tap water in bottles shipped across the country from Coca Cola bottling plants. It is exactly Coke without the sugar and coloring.

With the minimalist carbon filter, any US tap water is way better than any untested, unregulated bottled water that bakes in warehouses in plastic containers.

It is the same municipal water in all of these sources, plus you are using up oil and destroying our roads when you subsidize shipping bullshit water to your grocery store because you want to pay an idiot tax.

Loved the Starcraft innuendo when showing the S.Korean map...
