The Radioactive “Miracle Water” That Killed Its Believers
If you lived in the 1920s, you might have found a pamphlet advertising “the greatest therapeutic force known to mankind.” Radithor was a tiny bottle of clear, colorless water that claimed to cure acne, anemia, heart disease, poison ivy, impotence, asthma, and any other malady you could imagine. There was only one side effect: DEATH.…

Is popular science behind mind blow?

@It.Just.BIt used to be Vsauce, Kevin would collaborate with Michael about topics and such but I’m not sure if it’s just Kevin running the show now, Michael has moved on from Vsauce and is doing a podcast about interesting science stuff.

We can repatriate offspring that don’t carry disease. It is being done with different projects. There is hope for those willing to put in the effort.

Second: did someone hack this channel?
Third: release Kevin now and we won’t press charges

So this guy is saving turtles from becoming pets by keeping them as pets?
@Cuorapreservation
November 12, 2025 at 6:47 am
Obviously you didn’t listen. He is working with the local fish and game and will be hatching babies to put back into the wild. There is a lot of red tape to be able to do something like this. So yea, not just some “guy”…

@Cuorapreservation I get it and thats great. I was just making a silly comment, 3:09 I was expecting them to be used for hexagram readings or sunglass frames.

I dont mean to be rude but the 11 month silence followed by a video that is this “low effort” is not a good sign for this channel.
