Strange Historical Facts About US States

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
In a country with 50 separate territories with unique cultural backgrounds, laws, and social practices, it's unsurprising that citizens of each state in the US find pride in the unique histories of their home residency. Still, while we may boast about our own states and believe that we have a good idea of what goes on in others based on stereotypes and generalized ideas of regions throughout the US, there are a lot of surprising facts about the Midwest, the South, the Northeast, and the West Coast that are unbelievably bizarre but true. Everyone is so tough on the new narrator. I listen to weird history either when I'm working or in bed to fall asleep, the new guy scratches the same itch the usual narrators voice gives (to me at least). Of course, everyone is warranted their own opinion. I think if he added more emotion to his voice he'd be a lot better recieved. Great video as always!

I hate to say it, but I was disappointed by this list.
Most of the entries seemed more like random facts in general, rather than strange facts about the states. I was expecting more stuff like Kentucky being the only state to have two people serving as president at the same time (Davis and Lincoln) or Texas having a provision in its constitution allowing it to split into five states. Stuff like that.

Nice to see the Conch Republic story told - even to this day there are still Conch Republic signs here and there - you used to be able to get a Conch Republic Passport at certain times of the year.
Visitors from the US mainland can get the 'unofficial' title of Fresh-Water Conch if they live in Key West for long enough.

This IS weird. Although there are some very interesting facts here very few have anything to do with actual weirdness of states. The writing seems to be straining to be funny to make up for the absence of the regular narrator. Definitely weird. history.

If you go far enough back in Weird History's catalog, there were 2 different narrators before Tom Blank, a man and woman voice. I think this was the first guy. See their video about the radioactive boy scout.
reply

There s nothing wrong with the other people who do your voiceovers, but it makes me want to click off an otherwise very interesting sounding video simply because the main voice over guy is THAT GOOD
reply

the new guy is the perfect example of 'be yourself'. Don't try to be the OG narrator, I am sure the new guy has his style that he needs to bring out instead of just trying to be the OG narrator.
reply

New Guy Is Good, and Also this allows for the OG Guy to rest a bit and be happier and better for the other videos.
And we as audience win because we'll get more and better videos!

He was the #1 most popular comedian at my high school. though Jim Carrey came in at second place.

Ok. this new guy isn't terrible but his jokes fall very flat so if we can't get the OG narrator, let's just drop the jokes. Because the new guy's delivery is almost cringe.

The boneyard in Alaska has more mammoth bones than what s found in SD. Scientists just refuse to acknowledge its existence because it slaps their world view in the face.
