Ever since 2015, the world has been plagued with the question, "Who would win? 1 trillion lions, or the sun?" I'm going to take a scientific approach, while diving into tangents about what "trillion" means, physics thought experiments, and more! Want to know who will win? The answer won't surprise you!

    "If we wanna destroy the sun, we're gonna need more lions." A statement I never thought I'd hear in my life ...
  • @JR-tj2zl
    Son: Dad, why were lions extinct? Me: Ah yes, It was very stupid...
  • @Srujith111
    such a ridiculously insane story telling, your script, the animations editing is just really a million lion thing!
  • @Pato-ci3tb
    okay sure, but 1 trillion lions is a lot of lions.
  • “Lions shouldn’t be able to spontaneously undergo nuclear fusion” is my favorite quote from this video
  • @ZXLink
    This is like the third time this video has popped up on my feed in the last few years. It's one of my favorite thumbnails on YouTube because the sun looks offended that this question is even being asked
  • @ldtobi1
    “Not sure about that bro, I’m looking at the sun right now and it’s hella small”
  • @LobsterPuncher
    As a liontologist, I've often caught small groups of lions plotting to snuff out the sun and end all life. Pray they can never organize the numbers to fuse into a black hole.
  • @mrburgermaster
    'A mass of lions so large it would start fusion' made my day 😂
  • @Solocase
    I love how I keep coming back to this video ever year, despite having watched it already times already 😂
  • @1Billysama
    He forgot to calculate the power of friendship, and the fact that everyone in the ball has the heart of a lion.
  • @KaIIenie
    i love how this is secretly just a big math and science test that we try to follow along and see if we get things right
  • @plague4661
    but heres the thing, 1 trillion lions is a lot of lions
  • @OkiSuwen
    "We are all human. We cannot kill the sun. But 3 * 10^35 lions can. They are not human." -Sun Tzu, probably
  • @MrCeegeezy
    You didn't take into account that Lions are cats and they have 9 lives so technically the sun needs to deal with 9 trillion lions who have systematically learned that they do indeed always land on their feet.
  • @Baallerith
    I have not understood one single second of this video and yet I appreciated every wise word spoken.

    3:00 I will never question my drawing skills again
