God I HATE that people yarn bomb trees. Imagine all that yarn after a few rains, sodden and going moldy and giving the tree rot through its bark. Think things through!

On the other hand, it means he did that to be persecuted by blue whales for over a decade...?

Dear QI admins, would you please update these lovely videos with "auto generated subtitles" option? I know it is not always accurate but it can be quite useful for foreigners. It would be nice to catch more than 50% of the things Johnny Vegas says for instance, but hey.

Perhaps there should be a QI app.

0:40 my village did something similar, didn't work lol

Nothing like the smell of rotting wool on a tree.

Sue Perkins is correct that you can st'ab a person with a knitting-nee'dle, AND you can extract their brains through their nose using a crochet-hook (isn't that what Egyptians did as part of mummifying a body?). But I am learning a form of martial-arts where, upon being att'acked by a foe, I rapidly knit a close-fitting sack that fits tightly around their entire body, enclosing them in it, immobilizing them. I defeated Spiderman in the last Superpowers Contest, because as he shot spider-silk towards me to ensnare me, I just wrapped the hurled spider-silk up on my knitting-needles and went to work and I soon had him in a cocoon.

You know what would be really extreme knitting? Something that fulfills all three of these criteria: 1) it fits, 2) it's functional, and 3) it looks somewhat attractive.

That tree wrapping shit kicked off in my area 2 years ago, then they ran out of thing to wrap. Last month I had the privileged of removing it all as the ants and mold was effecting the tree and it all looked shit. The same mob decorated Xmas baubles and red and white ribbons on everything, 3 months later I got to remove all the crap too.

Well come on, please, knit SOMETHING

Oh. I heard that as "gorilla" knitting and expected something *entirely different.*

I can't imagine that wrapping a tree trunk in yarn would be particularly good for the tree. I'd even go so far as to propose that that would make the tree rather unhappy. The bark would rot as the yarn would hold moisture. Lichens and mosses on the trunk would die. Birds would have a very hard time digging bugs out of trees. New branches and leaf sprouts would have a hard time pushing thru the yarn. Nice intentions and everything, but .... yeah. No.

Finland hosts an annual "Purl Jam" of heavy metal knitting!

Think this is one of the first times I've seen David sat on the right side

wait i love that sandy doesn't yell at me anymore at the end of the video!!!! HOORAY! haha

I don't know who the girl on the panel is but she has such a warm smile. One of the nicest smiles I have ever seen.

In Demolition Man, Wesley Snipes plays a convict that spends decades frozen and was braintrained with gunplay, cyberterrorism-knowledge and all manner of supervillany skills. Stallone went through the same cryogenic detention and came out with a strange urge to knit sweaters because that future society thought it would make violent criminals less violent and have a less risk of repeat offending if they could vent their frustrations peacefully... The shenanigans that ensued when they met was heartwarming and cozy. I... I just was reminded of that film here somehow

oh sure, Yarn Bombing sounds all cute and cozy, until it happens to YOU. in the late 60's early 70's my mother would crochet, belts, scarves, hats, mittens, waistcoats, slippers, sweaters, my sister even got a granny square tunic dress. Are Humans Made To Wear Hand Knit Outer Wear? this human thinks, knot. (...___...)

Thirsk bombers

Bungee jumping but you have to knit your own cord on the way down.

why indeed, I loved the "C'mon click something" ending

Why is the outro pitched down?

There'll be a pre-emptive counter-offensive involving cats.

Why did they change the outro? Did someone people get triggered by it or somthing?

Love a good yarn bombing. When the road bridge over the local railway was being replaced a temporary pedestrian bridge made from scaffolding was installed. One day a knitted sleeve had been added to a single pole. Within a month the entire construction had become a mad staircase/scarf hybrid and looked wonderful! Though I suspect the builders who ultimately took down the bridge didn't love us.

Those trees look trippy as hell

I taught myself to knit with sewing thread and straight pins. I got the idea from watching a documentary about the costume designer for the movie CORALINE

And then we got two grand off the students union

my Grandma is pretty hardcore. She'll jab you with a knitting needle if you get out of line, and she won't miss a pearl.
