So, you wanna learn some surprising alternate uses for poop? – Me neither, but… – Let’s talk about that. ♪ (theme music) ♪ – Good Mythical Morning! – Season Seven continues to gain steam, and thank you for making us a part of your daily routine. Steam. Are you trying to make a poop joke already? – I was just trying to rhyme two words. – Okay. – A steaming pile of Good Mythical– okay. – No! Shh! Don’t even do it! – All right. Whatever. – Last season, you informed all of us – about some alternate uses for pee. Urine. – Yes, I did. Uh… what’s another word for pee or urine? It doesn’t matter. Now the tables are turning. – You’re gonna teach me about poop. – I’m gonna tell you all about poop! – Feces. Crap. Fill in the blank. – Okay. Yeah. Actually, that is actually what I’m gonna do. I’m gonna ask you to fill in the blank. I’m gonna go through seven different statements that are all true about poop, feces, crap, et cetera. Caca. And then you are going to fill in the blank. If you get two out of seven — the standards are very low… – Oh, hm. – You win a special poop-related prize! Sounds like something I may not want, but I’m gonna try hard anyway. Link, please don’t cheat. (crew offscreen laughing) – How would I cheat? – ‘Cause the answer’s on the next slide. – You really couldn’t unless you – Okay. – could see into the future. – All right. – Blank is produced in part from bird… – Poop! – …bat, and seal droppings. – Oh. – Blank is produced in part from bird, – Bird, – bat, and seal droppings. – bat, and seal… combining the three? I don’t know how it works. I’d hate to see that, though. Do they all three have to be there at the same time? You tell me. Household cleaner is my guess. It’s kind of ironic. Not glass cleaner, obviously, but like surface cleaner. – That’s incorrect, Link. It’s gunpowder. – (incorrect buzzer) – Gunpowder has got feces in it. – Really? – Apparently seal feces. – Wow. – (laughing) – Packs quite a punch. In fact, the War of the Pacific was mainly fought over the mining rights of Peruvian islands which had ample deposits of guano. Guano. – That’s bird droppings. – Mhm. Can be bat droppings. I guess seal droppings now are a candidate. – Fascinating. – Every time you pick up a gun, you should think that. Seal droppings make this possible. (Link scoffs) – In rural India, in rural India… – I don’t really pick up guns. – Yes. – I can’t really say the word “rural.” – Rural. – We say “rool” where I come from. In “rool” India, villagers use huts made of cow feces to protect blank. (clicks tongue) Huts made of feces to protect something. – What’s in those feces huts? (laughing) – First thing I thought was… – First thing I… that’s silly. – Feces hunts. Huts. Sorry. Cow feces? First thing I thought was cows. But I’m not gonna guess that. They put cows in huts made of cow feces. No, that’s not right. Um… I’m gonna guess… water. Like wells of water, and that will prevent evaporation. – Mm, mm. That’s not a good guess. – (incorrect buzzer) (stutters) What do you mean it not a good guess? – The correct answer is more feces. – What? – (laughing) More feces? What? – In certain parts of Windia… – Windia! – (everyone on and offscreen laughing) It’s the part of India that is very windy. No, there’s just a lot of Wendys there. Lots of people named Wendy live there. I got ahead of myself because there’s a part of India where there’s lots of – monsoon winds. And it brings lots of – Oh, okay. – Windia. – rain, and they actually like to use this poop to burn as a fuel. And so to protect the poop from the wind, they put poop around the poop. They make feces huts. I guessed poop for the first… Never mind. Okay. All right. – I haven’t gotten any right yet. – Windia. Put that on a t-shirt. In Bolivia, blank dung is put into the water treatment lagoons in wetlands to clean it of harsh deposits from silver mines. So they’ve got water – that they’re cleaning of these harsh – In Bolivia. – deposits in Bolivia. Some animal’s dung. – They put some animal’s poop – Dung. No. – in water to get silver out? – just to get harsh deposits – Bolivia. – from silver mines, yeah. – South America. – Location is key here. – I’m gonna guess, uh… the capybara, because it’s South American. It’s my favorite. You can have it as a pet. It swims in pools and it eats its own feces. Therefore… I’m guessing it. I’m gonna give you a hint before I tell you you’re wrong, – because it’s not capybara. – All right. We… WE… have eaten this animal. On this show. We’ve eaten a lot of stuff. Um… – Water buffalo? (incorrect buzzer) – Llama. – We haven’t eaten a water buffalo. – We’ve eaten a llama, or an alpaca. – Pretty much the same thing. – I think that we’ve eaten an alpaca. Llama. But you put llama poop inside of a… and the silver comes out. – Silver is filtered. – So you’ve got these wastes in this waste water from mines. And they put the dung in there, the llama dung, and the bacteria in the dung processes sulfates in the water, binding the disolved materials and making them sink to the bottom. – And then they filter that out. – Yeah. Before like people… before it’s potable. Or pah-table. – I don’t think they’re making it potable. – Oh. I think they’re just trying to clean it up a little bit. – Okay, okay. – Puttin’ dung in there. – Don’t put dung in my water. – All right. Press on. The Allies in World War Two would hide blank in piles of camel turds. I decided to use the word “turd” in this one. (laughing) – Tanks. So that’s a big pile. – (crew offscreen laughing) Ammo. Ammo. No one’s gonna go looking through a pile of turds for ammo. – Really think about this one. – Like… You said tanks earlier. What might a tank do to a turd. A big turd. – Run over it. A mine. Mines! – Yeah, Link! You got one! (correct ding) I want you to win the special gift. – Okay okay okay okay okay! – The Germans had a weird… – I was still picturing like a big thing. – The Germans, I don’t know. Don’t ask me why, and if you’re German, you can tell me. They had a weird tradition of – driving their tanks over piles of poop. – It’s irresistible. Oh, gotta get (funny noise). Gotta get over that poop. – I understand. – There’s a golf cart at my mom’s house, – and they have cows. And I take that thing out and I go for the cow pies – every time it’s just… – Yeah. You can’t help but – (mouth squishing noises) – run over a cow pie. I’ve always said that. And I’m not even German. – Me neither. – And it got so prevalent that they would put the mines in there and it would blow these tanks up that then the Allies figured out that they needed to make it look like they had already run over it with a tank. They would take it, run over it with a tank, – then put another mine in there. – Oh wow. – Smart. That’s why we won the war, guys. – Right. Also in World War Two, the Germans found that eating camel poop during their occupation in Northern Africa protected them against blank. The Germans: they’re running over poop, but they’re also eating it. Gosh. Protecting them from the Dark Side. – No. – No, I’m not guessing that. Uh… Camel poop, dehydration. There’s lots of water in camel poop. – I have no clue. I’m guessing. – Dysentery. (incorrect buzzer) You didn’t listen well enough when you played Oregon Trail. Yeah, they were eatin’ camel poop? There’s no camels in Oregon Trail. – There’s dysentery though. – Yes there is. No Germans, either. The secret was the beneficial bateria in camel dung which aided digestion and [crowded out] disease from bacteria. Let’s get some camel… Will It Camel Dung? That’s another episode. This is why I’ve cancelled my reservation to that German restaurant. (laughing) – That’s not a sausage. – (laughing) Okay. I gotta get another one right. – So let’s do this. – You do, you do. – And you’ve got two chances. – Okay. In Thailand, blank patties are used to make blank. And I’m not talking burger patties here, buddy. Blank patties… a certain animal… – Thailand… – used to make blank. – What animal is in Thailand, Link? – Uh, ox. Ox. – It’s a big animal. Bigger. – Ox. Elephant. – Oh! Yeah, you’re on the right track now. – Elephant… elephant dung to make… – Uh, I’m thinking… houses. Huts. – (sighs) – Paper. (incorrect buzzer) – Paper. Yeah. Basically elephant poop consists almost entirely of plant materials, – because they don’t eat humans. – So smart! You know, plants. I mean, elephants don’t eat humans. – We all know that. Or meat. – This paper made with – 100% recycled elephant crap. – I would write all over that. – Yeah, I would love to get some of that. – I would get back into paper if it was made out of poop. I would write letters to everybody. I would get rid of email. – I would write love letters to my wife. – I wonder what it smells like. – All right one last chance. – Elephant poop. I got half a point there, thanks to you. (correct ding) By extracting protein and lipids from human poop… – Ooh, we’re back in human zone. – …the elements are whipped together to make a blank substitute. This is happening somewhere in the world. Somebody’s figured out by extracting protein and lipids from human poop, they can whip it together to make a blank substitute. Meal. (inhales) More specific. – Breakfast. – (everyone on and offscreen laughing) To make a breakfast substitute. I mean the type of food, not when you eat it. – They’re making something – Why I gotta be more specific? – I’m right! – No, you’re not right. – That’s not the answer. – Uh, energy bar. Um, granola bar. – Protein and lipids. – Protein and fat. – Substitute. Make a… – Jerky, beef jerky. – Less specific. – Uh, meat. – Ding ding ding ding ding! – ♪ (celebratory music) ♪ – Link, you win the Golden Plunger! – Really? I’d like you to use it whenever you clog the toilet. That’s right. There’s a scientist in Okayama, Japan. He’s part of the Environmental Assessment Center and he has put together something called the poop burger by doing exactly what I just talked about. Taking this stuff out of human poop and then – mixing it with savory ingredients. – Eugh! Like soy and other things. Now, would you eat that while you’re writing your – elephant-poop love letter to your wife? – Depends on how many views I would get. – (laughing) Okay! – Thanks for liking and commenting – on this episode. – You know what time it is. – Hello, I’m Peter from Venezuela. – I’m Camilla from Columbia. – We are in Los Roques. – And it’s time to (unison) spin The Wheel of Mythicality!

I’m raising my hand, and I’m seein’ it! I’m seein’ it raise! I’m seein’ it lower! – Yeah, me too. – I’m seein’ my other hand point to the hand that’s no longer raising, but now it is raising. – I see it. – You looking at your hands, – I’m seeing it. – or you seeing yourself doing it. – No, I’m just seeing my hand raise. – Well, that’s not what you’re… – That’s not the same thing. – And then, and then… – Are you seeing yourself seeing it? – No! – ‘Cause I’m seeing you see it. – Really? – That’s what I thought you were seeing. – Which way is it going? Up. That one’s going up. Now they’re coming down. Up, down, up… – I’m seeing you see this! – Yeah. – (laughing) Yeah. – Cool man! (laughing) [Captioned by Kevin: GMM Captioning Team]
