• From the mystery of baby pigeons to proof on whether or not aliens exist, we answer
some of your most burning questions about life
• Hey there, my name is Melissa, I'll be reading out the questions and answers
• I'm Danger Dolan and I'm here to blow your mind with truth
10 – Xavier Rhino - What is a parasitic twin?
• I don’t know about twins but I have this… brother who constantly steals my scripts,
like a parasite, just because I happen to sleep for a week or two and miss eight deadlines.
And yet he refuses to show up for this week’s episode!
How unreliable is that, like a parasite.
• A parasitic twin is a kind of conjoined twin; what sets it apart from a Siamese twin
is that instead of both twins being fully developed people, one of them leeches off
of the other twin’s organs.
Sometimes the underdeveloped twin has a fully working brain and has their own personality,
other times the parasitic twin lacks a mind and is just a drain on the host.
• Dolan, you have no idea what a parasite is, do you?
• Sure I do, it’s one of those thingies you get when you scratch your butt-cheeks
too much.
• I, what?
• Oh, I did it.
It’s coming again!
• That’s a fl— • Eeek!
9 – Marvel Gilbreath - What was the largest animal to ever live, in the history of large
animals?
• The megalodolan was a giant…white man thing?
What am I anyways?
You don’t know?
What do you mean I’m meant to know?
Alright, the omegalaladolan was a giant man-thing that roamed the Earth in the Dolanic Period
of Earth and it was really tall and awesome and... sexy.
• Despite the ages of dinosaurs and mega-fauna, the biggest animal to roam the earth is one
that you can find in the wild today: the blue whale.
It’s so big that its tongue can weigh as much as an elephant, yet it survives by eating
tiny shrimp-like animals called krill.
• Hey there buddy, you alright?
• I don’t even know what species I am and I don’t think I ever did.
• Well no matter what you are, you’ll always be my little dumb-dumb.
• Awww….
thanks?
8 – AliCatEatsButter – Why are Dinosaur fossils found so far under the ground?
• Well that’s because they were really good miners, see they powered their super
advanced civilisation on the unlimited power of magma; so when the asteroid hit it vaporised
all the ones on top, but the ones down the bottom were trapped and played charades until
they turned into rocks – and that’s how we invented science
• Dinosaur bones are found deep underground because of tectonic plate movement.
Since they essentially get turned into rocks, known as fossils, they move around along with
the rest of the earth which moves into the Earth during the complicated rock cycle.
7 – IballisticCreeper - Is the sun a gas or a form of plasma?
• Imagine the hottest person you know – no, hotter – hotter – HOTTER, HOTTEEEERRR,
SO ATTRACTIVE THEIR LIPS ARE MELTING OFF, THEIR EYEBALLS TURN TO FLAMING GOO, THEIR
ENTIRE BODY IS A CASCADING RIVER OF MOLTEN DEATH – that’s the sun, it’s really
hot and it is out of your league • All stars, including our sun, are made
up of almost entirely plasma.
This is because stars are among the hottest objects in the universe and when you super-heat
gas it creates plasma in the same way boiling water makes water gas, also known as steam.
6 – mousey lover 27 - Why do other animals speak different "languages”?
• Because they actually studied these languages, visited the countries and learned it over
time, they didn’t just give up in a week like you did: the rest of the animals are
just too stubborn to say anything other than ‘bark’ and ‘meow’ and ‘please stop
forcing me to voice for Planet Dolan’.
• For one thing, different animals have different ways of communicating: the amazing
light-show the cuttlefish puts on isn’t going to do much for eyeless animals, and
an ant’s pheromones will get washed away under the sea.
Also different animals have different needs for communication; some need it to warn of
danger while others need it to socialise. 5 – Leona :D
- What proof do we have that aliens exist?
• Well, look at all the insane crazy futuristic technology we have today, where do you think
it all came from if it wasn’t aliens?
Look at this, how does it work?
NOBODY KNOWS.
And this?
This is some crazy Star Trek nonsense.
• We haven’t found any proof of aliens, but we have got one possible piece of scientific
evidence.
Some scientists claimed to have found fossil evidence of bacteria in meteorites, but other
than that, the organisation dedicated to finding extra-terrestrial life very much doubt that
any aliens have been anywhere near Earth.
• How do you explain this then?
• Dolan… that’s just a cardboard box • But who created it *gasp*
4 – Raeslyn Miller - Why are the keys on a keyboard in a random order?
How was it developed?
• You know the story about how if you give a million monkeys typewriters then eventually
they’d write Shakespeare?
Well, early computer technicians were so impressed with that idea that they let monkeys arrange
the keys on all modern keyboards for us humans – and now nobody knows where anything is
– *sigh* monkeys…
• No keyboards out there, except a few dodgy ones made by certain people in blue hats,
were designed with a random order in mind.
The QWERTY system, the one you’re probably using, was designed for optimal typewriter
use, so the keys wouldn’t jam.
It’s still used despite no one using typewriters anymore because everyone’s so used to it.
3 – Why don’t we ever see baby pigeons?
• Pigeons are a special species of bird that reproduce solely through splitting in
two, that’s why there are so many of them and that’s also why you don’t see any
babies.
Of course sometimes they lose their twin, as if the case with a certain bird who shall
remain nameless…
• This one is actually really simple, although when I first heard the question it certainly
made me think.
Pigeons don’t leave their nest until they look pretty much like an adult bird, that’s
all there really is to it.
2 – Da chief Ramos - If you were stuck between Two planets’ gravity pulling at the same
strong force, would you get ripped apart?
• Of course not, I mean sure, your body would be crushed to the size of a typical
grain of sand, but plenty of grain-sized people have gone on to lead productive lives – at
least I’m pretty sure they did, we haven’t exactly found them yet
• Actually if they both had the same amount of mass, meaning the same pull of gravity,
and were the same distance apart you would feel no gravity at all, shortly before they
crashed into each other with you in-between them.
• Ow. 1 – Cookie The Destroyer - How did humming
birds get so fast?
• They don’t actually move all that fast, they just stay in the air because they consume
the helium found in the nectar of flowers, that’s why when their wings appear to be
moving fast it’s just a blur, I mean if they actually moved that fast they would fly
off into spaaaaace.
• …Well they have an incredibly high metabolism rate, meaning they consume a lot of energy
and they’re also very small and light making the flapping less work.
To make up for the energy they use during the day they have a very deep sleep that consumes
barely any calories at all.
• (muffled) Melissa, Heeelp!
• Okay.
• Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Thank youuuuuuu
