Earth has experienced its shortest day on record in June and
that's part of the potentially alarming trend in Earth's movements.
I want to be clear, we don't know exactly why this is happening, but anything that
could lead to our days getting shorter is something I'm against, okay?
We need longer days.
I don't like the short days, but the Earth is just not complying with us.
So, on June 29th of 2022 meaning this year,
Earth completed one spin in 1.59 milliseconds, less than 24 hours.
So that totally screws with the concept of time.
Let's just keep it real.
That is a record, but not exactly an anomaly.
So in 2020, scientists recorded the 28 shortest days since 1960.
Last year that trend did not continue with the shortest day in
2021 being longer than in the previous year.
However, on June 29th of this year, our planet completed its quickest ever spin,
followed quickly by a day that lasted 1.50 milliseconds less on July 26th of 2022.
Now, scientists are not really sure why this is happening, okay?
But to give you some possible explanations.
It includes this changes to the Earth's climate or climate system,
such as melting and freezing of glaciers or
winds whose shifting weight pulls on the earth tides go in tides go out.
You can't explain it.
I'm kidding.
>> That's very old school.
>> Bill O'Reilly Reference.
Earthquakes and
other seismic activity which move mass towards the center of the earth.
Some scientists think it might be ocean circulation and
pressure on the sea bed that pulls on the Earth's axis.
And there's also the theory that the Chandler wobble is happening.
It's a natural shifting of the Earth's axis due to the planet
not being perfectly spherical, might be flat.
In fact, it could be linked to the spinning speeds.
I'm kidding about the earth being flat.
I'm not insane, John what do you think as our resident science guru?
Yeah, well, I definitely had noticed that on some of these days, I wasn't getting
quite as much done and I felt robbed in a way that I couldn't really define.
So, it's great to know that there was a scientific reason for that.
I'm glad that you, you ran through some of the early theories.
I guess their theories they seem impossible to test.
I don't know how we would ever know.
Because initially when you say that there's a slower day or
faster day doesn't, it seem impossible for it to like speed back up.
Like I could see it slowing down for some reason, but like slowing down and
then speeding up.
Kind of feels impossible.
I suppose some of that stuff about, like the plates moving changing,
how far from the center of the earth, some of the masses could have that effect.
But anyway, my fear coming out of this story is,
I don't know if you've been spending much time on TikTok recently, Have you?
>> Yes, it is all I want to do when I'm stoned.
Yes. Okay, have you come across some of the,
like scientific theories that get to know?
>> No >> I am so worried
>> Are you crazy, John?
Like if I want to be depressed, I've got twitter for that, okay?
I'm not gonna taint my TikTok feed with politics and science.
>> No, no, I want to assure you there's no science in any of that, but
it's like, it's about science.
They believe there are so many videos about dimensional portals and cern
opening up again, gateway to another world and, and all of this is not just an idea.
It's definitely true.
And they have very detailed information about what will and
will not happen when the doors opened.
They get lots of views on these videos.
They never explain how it is that they know so
much about the other side of this doorway.
Like even if you believe that certain was doing this, how do you know so
much about what's on the other side?
Are you working for cern?
>> No no >> Are you an insider?
>> No no >> But anyway,
>> I love that,
I love that the science world has its own like Gary V figures.
So I'm here for it continue.
>> Yeah, I just,
they're going to think that like a part of the earth spin was stolen or something.
It's vampire momentum theft to power the upside down generating machine.
That is definitely what they're going to use.
>> Maybe >> It's just,
it's an interesting natural variation that has no effect on anything that we can see.
>> Not yet.
But who's to say that the shortness in our day won't expand
to a much lengthier period of time.
And then when that happens, what does it mean to exist in a 24 hour a day system?
Does that system still make sense?
Do we need to rethink that system?
You know what I mean?
And are we being robbed of days of our lives by?
What is our age?
>> We are we are by the American diet, actually, and it's reversible.
You seem as if you've been thinking about science after some mushrooms,
it sounds like no.
Yeah, it's interesting.
I like that there are people that are actually paying essentially
these sorts of things.
The idea that you even could track that.
I have no idea how that would work.
Yeah, I'm just worried about what people will do with it.
I don't know.
>> I mean, you should always just be worried about people, right?
Because people always find a way to screw things up.
So, I hear you on that >> At this point,
I hope that like the Chandler wobble is happening and
Earth just flies off in a deep space at this point.
Honestly, we're asking for it as a people.
>> The Chandler wobble sounds like a really fun dance move.
Like a new dance trend.
Like, did you hear about the Chandler wobble.
You know >> I'm gonna get it going on TikTok
later today.
