    TLDW: skipped through until 25:47: the rail doesnt lengthen it just extends to the tops and sides.

    This could have been a 5 minute video. All that “Whooa”-Shots and leadup was not needed but is the American way of storytelling: Very talkative and getting amazed by every detail.

      It’s a shit title because the video us actually about metallurgy and thermite welding, not track expansion and contraction.

        I imagine this guy watching a vsauce video going “oh god there’s so much irrelevant shit”. I like that these videos are about being curious about one thing and discovering other things for it, rather than being about learninga single fact.
