9 Hilarious Sam O'Nella Academy Videos That'll Make You Forget You're Actually Learning

With his fascinating stories, quick-witted humor, and unique animation style, it's no wonder that Sam O'Nella's YouTube Channel has grown so much over the past few years. If you're interested in learning some useless new facts that you can share with your friends, or you just want a laugh, here are 9 hilarious Sam O'Nella Academy videos to get you started.


1. The Presidential Assassination Nobody Talks About

Ever heard of James A. Garfield? Yeah, the president. Did you know he was assassinated by a man name Charles Guiteau? He wasn't just a presidential assassin - he was a downright nutjob. From chasing his sister around with an axe to being hated by a free-loving commune, Guiteau's hijinks were some for the history books.

2. Deformed Dog Breeds

Some dogs are good. And some dogs are chihuahuas. Seriously, chihuahuas are scary. And you'll never look at a pug the same way, especially not after you find out what we did to them...

3. Lesser-Known Christmas Folklore Characters

I know how horrifying the thumbnail looks, but hear me out. The video is even more horrifying. But at least you'll learn about Frau Perchta, who'll rip out your organs and stuff you with hay. And oh yeah, a good portion of Iceland still believes in elves.

4.

Mmm, don't you just love eating cats, babies, and pretty much anything else you can get your hands on? No? Well, Tarrare did. Meet the man whose appetite was never satisfied. And yes, he did eat a cat. And a baby.

5. Fidel Castro's Dairy Adventures

Everyone likes ice cream, right? Even lactose-intolerant people find ways to eat it. But no one likes ice cream, or dairy in general more than Fidel Castro. That's right, that crazy Cuban dictator was crazy about cheese. So crazy about it, in fact, that he designed his own cows.

6. Obscure Units of Measurement

Imagine a universe where Waffle Houses are used to gauge whether or not a natural disaster is going to be devastating. You don't have to imagine, because that's the universe we live in. The Waffle House index is a real thing, among other weird

7. Diogenes, the Publicly-Defecating Philosopher

When most people think of philosophy, they think of silly, nonsensical questions that take too much thought to answer. Not Diogenes! If you like performing basic human bodily functions, you'll love Diogenes.

8. History's Worst Non-Water Floods

Everyone's heard of The Great Molasses flood, but did you know that it's flooded alcohol in the United Kingdom on more than one occasion? Who'd've thunk it?

9. Top 10 Worst Animal Skeletons

Penguins have knees.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
