When WonderWhy uploads, we're all winners.

This channel should be a Unesco heritage site.

I wasn't planning on doing episode 4 of my Winners and Losers series, until I came up with this idea. Something I thought was a little different, and could be interesting, UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Originally I was worried it was too soon after the last episode, only to discover the 3rd one was in 2017! How time flies. So I hope everyone likes the new episode, it was a lot of fun to make, and has given me about 50 new places that are on my bucket list! There are so many stunning locations I had never even heard of.

WonderWhy: "Most visited UNESCO World Heritage Site is the Forbidden City" Chinese emperor: * rolls in grave *

I wonder how many potential UNESCO world heritage sites were destroyed in WW1 and WW2

Episode 1 came out on 1 Aug 2013 195 days later Episode 2 came out (1 Feb 2014) 1389 days later Episode 3 came out (30 Nov 2017) 611 days later This Episode came out 1389-611 is 778 so episode 5 should come out 18 Sep 2021(778 days from now) Note: yes I know wonder said it would be 2024

Episode 5 dictators Most killed/least killed Longest /shortest reign Amount of international support Most/least infamous

Btw, WonderWhy this was an interesting idea that was better than all of our WAL 4 suggestions. See why these great videos take so long. Keep it up

Bhutan having none is ridiculous

This manz really makes these long breaks worth it because he comes up with ideas nobody else thinks of. Rock on legend!!!

Fun Fact: Mexico City has 6 different places considered World Heritage Site inside the city, in an area of less than 800 km2 making it probably one of the places with more density of world heritage sites in the world. -Mexico City Historic Center -Xochimilco -Ancient City of Teotihuacán -UNAM Campus -Luis Barragán House and Studio -The Camino Real de Tierra Adentro There are also two more places that have already been presented to the UNESCO and are in process to be considered a World Heritage Site: -Chapultepec Forest, Hill and Castle -Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo House and Studio With this we would have 8 different World Heritage Site declarations in the same city, the same amount as whole countries like Hungary, Finland or Sri Lanka, and just to sites ahead of the Netherlands or Denmark...in the same city. By the way, rhe Luis Barragan House is also one of the smallest heritage places in the world,as it is also an individual house.

In my opinion Bhutan should be a UNESCO world heritage site itself

I’ve lost track of how many UNESCO World Heritage Sites we’ve visited, most not even mentioned here. Amazing how many there are. Thanks for putting it in perspective and explaining how it works. Great video.

It's weird having some Scottish guy on the Internet that I've never seen talk about a bridge I see every week at 14:53. Greetings from Dresden :D

proud to be italian❤️🇮🇹

he bought it back the absolute mad lad

Your videos are excellent. You obviously put a lot of time and effort into these, and it shows. I have been binge watching your channel lately. Thanks for the great content.
