  • @thefight4god a trollface is missing from that

  • Comment removed

  • my last words: "Rosebud" 

  • My last words will probably be something along the lines of "Don't worry, it'll be fine," right before I do something horrendously stupid.

  • My last words: Respawning in 3.....2.....1.....

  • If I'm on my deathbed and someone asks me to say something awesome for my last words, I'm going to say "If my last words are all you want to remember of me, then I did something wrong"

    And then I won't speak again...which may be tough, considering who's in the room with me.

  • If John got the date right, then John Adams and Thomas Jefferson both died on the fiftieth anniversary of America. I can't tell if that is really good timing or really bad timing.

  • My last words: Error 404:  Life not found.

  • John.....since this video....you have lost soooo much weight.! :)

  • my last words, "last words are for fools who haden't said enough"

  • Kennedy's last words are the definition of irony...

  • @pyrokineticaura That's obvious.

  • WHAT WERE ALASKA'S LAST WORDS??? =.=

  • by change he meant Obama

  • You know last words, I can name every country in Europe off the top of my head XD

  • @SnowingWolfGirl Question: Have you read Looking for Alaska?

  • @Nerdfighterian

    Yes, I have :O

  • Palpable, Green, palpable!

  • WATER!! LoL XD

  • uknown seems to be quite popular as far as last words go

  • I want more Famous Last words videos.

  • My great great great times?? Grand Daddy had kind of meh words. Would have been better if he left it as "I regret Nothing."

  • My last words will be: I DON'T WANNA DIE!

  • WHY DON'T YOU BLINK!?!

  • @CaileeMarie3 He got pinkeye back in early Brotherhood 2.0 days (February, I think), and as a result, he had to have robotic eyes implanted. Of course, these eyes don't blink.

  • I feel like i'm the only one wondering why there's a bench press in your room. Let's be serious.

  • Shouldn't all vlogbrothers videos contain a nerd alert?

  • OMG.I'm reading LookingForAlaska and he knows all the last quotes... love John's books!

  • my last words: Haters gunna hate, bitch.

  • This is pretty interesting, although it makes me wonder what all the British Prime Ministers' last words were. I'm guessing they were mostly pretty dull :). Of course there were a lot more of them than the American Presidents so it'd probably be harder to find them all. Damn, now I have to know :D.

  • Am I the only one who was like, "HEY! He pointed in the right direction for the used-to-be-sidebar!" The thing he called the thingy. Yeah.

  • When you made this video Ford was already dead. Why didn't you mention him? Not that he was a great president but he was president.

  • Kennedy's last words!!! LOL!!! Irony....I love irony.....

  • pause at 57 seconds

  • It seems James Monroe had quite the mancrush on James Madison...

  • Give me a Thumbs up if you only clicked on this video because you thought it was a HuskyStarCraft "Nerd Alert" Song.

  • What about Lincoln?

  • "James K. Polk whose last words would be good words for me too" :D anyone else find that adorable?

  • Wher Is huskystarcraft's new song!!!!the title is so misleading....don't use the name nerd alert anymore

  • @derrickroseisabeast In his defense, this video was made in 2009.

  • BANELINGS!!!

  • i thought that maybe husky had released another nerd alert song... i guess not... i figured it would be kinda fast after void rays was released

  • i thought this was a husky song..

  • my favorite is "we are all going."

  • lol my name is Robert

  • My best friend wants her last words to be, "Tell John Green my last words."

  • Andrew Johnson's last words sound like something I would say...

  • one of my best friend's last name is Swain

  • luckily the last day of his life was probably the happiest day of Lincoln's life

  • We learned about the "you lose" thing in AP Government!

  • thumbs up if you clicked on this video because you thought it was a new video from huskystarcraft

  • @VcUb3mAsT3r613 Only you, bro. Only you.

  • I actually knew that story about Coolidge! My sister is a politics nerd and she told me it. I think it's my favorite president story ever. And did you memorize the order of the presidents? See, you are a nerd!

  • My sister would be happy to know James Mad. last words.

  • I love his teen girl impression... And I am one... :)

    

  • James k. polk is hands down my favorite president and this video just made me love him more. :) YEA OBSCURE pRESIDENTS fAN CLUB!!

  • Friends, hit Transcribe Audio.

    1:43 may be the only screenful of transcribed words on YouTube that is PERFECTLY ACCURATE. :O

    Also, at 2:20 - "I've got a little emergency! Is James Garfield swanky?"

  • @TheWarnerSister apart from 1:18

    but that one was pretty easy to transcribe :D

  • I knew about the Coolidge bet. Thank you AP U.S. History

  • I don't believe n last words. It's usually things like "Nurse, it's happening again!" or "Doctor, I shat myself, what do I do?!"

  • John, I'm pretty sure that F. Roosevelt's last words were: "I have a terrific headache."

  • .... link in the "thingy?????"

  • Isn't Nerd Alert the name of a show on College Humor?

  • James K Polk Tuesdays...

  • John Quincy Adams is in my family somehow aoccording to my family tree

  • @LivLaugh then so is John Adams! both were terrible presidents, but they both did great things before the presidency!

  • why haven't i seen this before?! i totally want to memorize these. 

  • Makes you wonder at what point should you shut up forever content with your final words...

  • Whoooa there Monroe. That's kinda romantic.

  • Lol he looks like keean Cahill

  • You guys made me think that I might not even be a nerd because I also didn't even know half of the severed hands in star wars (I knew like one before I watched that vid) and I before this, all I knew was George Washington's last words.

    Then I remembered something I know thats like this, but nerdier.

    I know all the last words of all 10 doctors from doctor who. And the cause of death.

  • wait, are the lyrics of "it's the end of the world as we know it" based on the last words of John Quincy Adams O.o

  • @MyInterwebs pcgodwin's child: I guess so

  • I think its pretty nerdy to be related in some way to just one President, but I can't one up that, I'm related to two... The Adams!!

    Nerdfighters!!!!

  • *AHEM* LOOKING FOR ALASKA

    So, Pudge is based off you?

  • *AHEM* LOOKING FOR ALASKA

  • James K. Polk was my great great great great great great ect great, uncle. So, I was like really excited to figure out his last words.

    :)

  • it's okay that you don't know the 13 severed hands of star wars. i've only seen one star wars movie all the way through, and i still want my dad to rewind the movie screen and show me thewhole in anakin's stomach (if there was a whole in his stomach at that time).

  • You should totally do a "Famous Last Words of Harry Potter Characters"

  • @Wrash16 Yesyesyesyesyes YES.

  • @Wrash16 Oh, but wait. Do beyond the grave words count? :/

  • @1maz11 I guess.... both should be mentioned though.... You're thinking of Dumbledore, Sirius, James and Lily right? (Was Lupin there? I cant remember)

  • @Wrash16 Right. I don't think he was, no... But what about Cedric, Bertha Jorkins, and all the others with priori incantatem? And the portraits/ghosts? Certainly, they're not alive, but they still contribute new material and have the power to change circumstances. I was thinking it should be strictly words spoken before one died, because death is the actual event that makes the difference in relationships with those people.

  • @Wrash16 And at the end, some are dead, but still interact, so they wouldn't get any last words. Don't know. It wouldn't be fair really to act as though they did nothing significant after their deaths, so maybe it should be both. But I think if we didn't take it as their final comment, but rather as the final one before they suffered a complete and dramatic change/loss, it would be fine to stick with last words before death.

  • gotta love nerdfighters..............<333­3333

  • How many people clicked this link because they actually thought this was the band "NERD ALERT" not just some random alert for nerds... :(

  • I bet that weight set in the backround is your wifes... You look like a stick... xO

  • and your mother is called sarah?

  • dude. how can you profess to be a nerd and at the same time advertise that you work out AND have a girlfriend?

    or is the workout-thingy in the background your mother's?

  • "I need no doctor, I can overcome my own trouble." Maybe his trouble was living. Or he had lots of unpaid bills.

  • I did it hank you'll see me on tuesday! lol wtf

  • THE PUFF IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • "...Polk's, which would be good last words for me too, "I love you Sarah, I love you for all eternity." "

  • 100,123 is awesome too :D

  • 99,988th viewer awesome

  • I've done it John! Memorized all the last words of presidents. After re-reading Looking For Alaska I've been hooked. I feel like I've completed the worlds nerdiest (and awesome) marathon. Now what?

  • @kickers4ever Complete a different, equally nerdy marathon. Or you could eat some icecream, that's fun too.

  • Lou Costello (Comedian) - This is the best milk shake I have ever tasted.

  • "You lose" is pretty brilliant, even if they weren't last words.

  • Awww. Chester A. Arther Has the best facial hair of all of them.

  • Hayes - "I know I am going where Lucy is" Is she in the sky with diamonds?

  • ha ha loved this video.

  • Nerds memorize the presidents. Nerdfighters memorize those presidents' last words. :)

  • awe.... SWAYNE!!!

  • John Green not a nerd? Impossible.

  • Another word with three vowels in a row uis turquoise!!!!!! Nobody gives it respect!!!!!!

  • "James K. Polk, whose last words would be good last words for me too, said "I love you, Sarah. I'd love for all eternity."

  • Oh my God! That's what your eyelids look like!!

  • i have never seen star wars .. ^.^

  • PALPABLE! THE NOURISHMENT IS PALPABLE!

  • why are all of the videos you make on my birthday are awesome :D

  • nerdtubuliar

  • This made me think of my nerdy system of remembering locker combinations. I never remember the numbers so I figured why not use presidents. Last year my band locker combination was Calvin Coolidge, Zachary Taylor, and Teddy Roosevelt. That would be 30-12-26 if you were wondering=D

  • awwww you love your yeti!!!!! <3 i hope i find a man like your wife has :)

  • Yeah! You did it! Nerdtastic!

  • ... And now we know it is actually, "The nourishment is palpable."

  • stop calling it a thingie.. you know what it's called. 

  • Warren Harding's were the saddest for me :(

  • I NEED NO DOCTOR! I CAN OVERCOME MY OWN TROUBLE!! >8D

    god, I love that! XD and I LOVE how Coolidge was just all like, "you lose." THAT IS HILARIOUS!! I LOVE HISTORY SOOO MUCH!! 8D

  • Right and UP....you look..................

  • John>Hank :p

  • lol Andrew Jackson; when the CHANGE comes xD

  • Comment removed

  • The Abe one made me sad... :(

  • ah I'd been wondering what Lincoln meant

  • Do You Get Paid Not To Blink O_o

  • LOL HE DIDN'T BLINK XD

  • love the hair

  • is it wierd that i have a friend named levi strauss... 3:10

  • Inspiring! I kind of wish people today had the same eloquence that characterized our presidents of yesteryear.

  • people can own other people. you owned oprah

  • @raeg Pwning and owning are vastly different things.

  • i love those eyes

  • Yes, but do you know the last words of all the failed presidential candidates to get at least one electoral vote? *nerd stare*

  • @reifiedvalerie Do you?

  • I'm distracted by the puff... do you use mousse or volumizer or something? I sincerely wish my hair would poof/puff like yours :)

  • HHHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! me 2 its soo distrcting! god its annoying i barely heard half of it

  • John, have you planed your preferred last words, you should think about it now as I think the last throws of dying would not be a good time to think creatively

  • lol :52

  • And you actually doubted you're a nerd?!?

  • And you for even a single moment doubt you are a nerd?

    :-p

    Awesome, sir. Just awesome.

  • John, you never cease to amaze me with your awesome nerdery. Especially when it involves presidential trivia. The off-topic story about Calvin Coolidge is one of my favorite bits of trivia in ANY category!!

  • im going to memorize these things just because he says them so much, its ok though, i wouldnt mind

  • my claim to neardom is :knowing what color ash ketchem's underwear are,having a full history of the rise and fall or team rocket and I've memorysed all the pokemon theme songs and a few songs from pokemon live

  • Goal for 2010: Memorize these last words, so I can be as awesome as John. At least, in this respect. :)

  • HEY!!! wasn't this a few days after the proposed Nerdfighter Fitness Challenge??? What were the results???

  • oscar wilde: "either the wallpaper goes or i do."

    the wallpaper stayed.

  • What was being read to Harding?

    Of course, w/ Reagan, he probably uttered his last words years before his death. I should hate to hear what they were as they would not have been lucid.

  • hahahahahahahahahhahaha thats soo awesome. You Lose. Best part ever.

  • what happend to the fitness challenge?

  • FAKE!

    They are weight training devices in the background.. A real nerd would NEVER do weights...

  • It was part of their fitness competition that hasn't been mentioned since inception and obviously given up on. Therefore cementing their nerdiness...

  • Ohh... Good for them :) Nerds rule

  • @ghandiwon

    When I met John, he said that they probably did give up on the concept, but might still do it, but he does have a personal trainer.

  • @ghandiwon *conception

  • long live the nerds :D dont worry im one too but not that nerdy no offence

  • the yetti is sarah!!!!!!!
