  • My alarm clock is a Dalek. Trust me, that is unpleasant to wake up to.

  • I think that the reason why alarm clocks are so annoying is so that you actually wake up. I've had times where I actually turned off my alarm clock in my sleep because I was so used to it.

  • Theres an app for that! No, really there is, I have it, its called sleep cycle.

  • #whitepeopleproblems

  • ... Isn't there a Recycling bin on your computer?

  • This has to be one of my favourite videos of Hank's.

  • Hey, look! It's the Sci-show hoodie! :D

  • After watching this video, I'm tempted to try to make a video of my owl/dove call. If you roll your tounge, and then picture what it would sound like in the back of your throat, thats what I can do. No, i can't really say how, I just can

  • btw anyone who's watching this after the 2nd of january 2012 and is subscribed to scishow - It's Hanks bulletproof HOODIE!!!!

  • I can see Hanks eye in Hanks eye

  • I LIVE IN MAINE!

  • This might be because it's 11 at night, but I have tears streaming down my face right now from laughing so hard. I've seen this video at least 3 times before and I don't really have a track record of laughing hysterically at online videos. But... cookie.

  • I think that this is the definition of giant squid of anger haha... especially at 1:19 .......

  • 0:22 Be honest with me now, Hank. Are you a mosher??? O.o

  • Does anybody else have this ad on the side that says "I love you, vlogbrothers"? And it has a picture of a dude with a stache? And when you click on it, it leads to a guy's channel. His channel name is whatswhat.

  • I liked the part where the delete button broke xD

  • "Make me normal!"

    1. We do not have that technology.

    2. Why the hell would we want a "normal" Hank??????????

  • you probably know this since you have a song called my phone, but "there's an app for that!" ;)

  • I am watching this now and when he talked about sleep cycles I'm like there's and app for that

  • You know whats fun, my alarm clock for years did three beeps in a row, so now whenever I hear three beeps in a row, I feel like I'm starting to wake up. That gets really annoying.

  • Thus, life sucks sometimes.

  • 103 people are delete keys

    Also, it's going to take more than an eyesite camera to make Hank Normal

    Also, the reason that alarm clocks go EEEEEE-EEEEEEE-EEEEEE-EEEEEE is because there are people like me who even with the EEEEE-EEEEEE-EEEEE alarm clocks still won't wake up without replacing the speakers with bigger more powerful ones

  • 103 people are delete keys

    Also, it's going to take more than an eyesite camera to make Hank Normal

  • 0:27 - 0:34

    sooo cute :D

  • I frackin HATE the pigeon noises!! They are the bain of my life!!!

  • every time i watch this video, i laugh so hard that i almost stop breathing

  • The Four 0f Us!!! Eeeeeee I watch them too. : )

  • Personally, I use the website "sleepyti.me"

    You input when you need to wake up and it tells you when you should try to go to sleep, or you can tell it when you're going to bed and it will tell you when to set your alarm clock for. It's pretty nifty :)

  • An alarm clock like that exists, and you're right, it's like a wrist watch! It wakes you up near the time you specify, when it detects that you've recently moved. Because you don't move during deep sleep, it'll wake you when waking is easy and comfortable. I haven't watched the videos after this yet, but I hope you've discovered this alarm clock already. If not, I hope you see this comment.

  • THIS EXISTS!!!!! it's an iphone app!!!!!!!

  • Funny thing about alarm clocks. This morning I hated my alarm sound so much that I got out my phone and blasted Accio Deathly Hallows so that I would actually want to wake up. So YOU, Hank Green, are responsible for me getting to work on time.

  • That angry dance was freaking awesome. Well done.

  • French the Llama! I just choked on some salted peanuts, because I was laughing so hard at your pleading with your iSight camera to stop changing colours. Sorry if I'm not making sense I think I might suffer from serious hypoxia right now and English is not my first language.

    Now back to rewatch the video to see what I missed out on while nearly choking to death - cheers!

  • I love angry Hank. So entertaining.

  • I wake up to the sound of a harp :3 this is why iPod alarms own

  • "i wanted to throw that microwave oven... out of the window of the hotel room." is something i think about when i get really angry. and then it makes me laugh and feel better.

  • Hank did you forget about the recycle bin? lol

  • I'm not sure if scientists have figured out REM cycles. And even if they have, each persons would be different, as you indirectly explained. And since computers can pick up on whether we're having a nightmare or not it might be possible.

  • @MegaMuffinNinja I kind of know how this works; we randomly covered it in a psychology class I took in high school. As you seem to know, it's best to wake up during REM. A full sleep cycle (which ends in REM) lasts about 90 minutes and then repeats continually. The average person will wake up during REM if they get exactly 7.5 to 8 hours of sleep.

    The real problem is that your alarm clock would have to start timing not when you get into bed but when you actually fall asleep.

  • 2:13 so awesome

  • Does anyone wanna know what the video he deleted was? lol

  • I'm from Maine!! where in maine were you?

  • so much flailing.

  • There's an app on the iPhone that wakes you up at the 'right' time, it's called Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock.

  • 1:19 to 1:24 made my day.

  • Your angry rampages are ridiculously endearing X3

  • I don't use an alarm clock. If I set one, I will inevitably wake up hours beforehand in a blind panic, thinking that I've slept through it. Besides, I don't need an alarm clock. Not once in my life have I slept past 9:10am. My internal alarm clock is actually incredibly adept at, you know, working.

  • there is an alarm clock that measures your sleep patterns and wakes you up in the right moment at about the time you wanted up for forgot its name though. Google it.

  • I want an alarm clock that wakes me up right at the end of a REM cycle, so I'll be able to have a full-length dream but still remember it when I'm up. THEN I can record it in my dream journal, which increases my chances of lucid dreaming in the future!

    And you know what lucid dreaming means....

    WOOOOOO UNRESTRAINED FLYING!

  • At least you didn't stick a remote up your ass. lol

  • I hate my alarm clock lol. But mostly because it scares me awake and i dont like to wake up in panic mode

  • Annoying alarm clock noises are so because it reinforces your need to wake up in the morning because you want to end that noise, I guess. Or it is a scam by leading alarm clock corporations to have their customers smash their clocks at a steady rate to buy new ones.

  • Cooing pigeons are the scariest noise I have ever heard.

  • Best outro yet

  • "That is completely unprofessional, and I'm sorry." Ha, Hank apologizing for THAT?

  • My alarm makes dog barking sounds

  • I'm sure nerdfighteria has already solved you problem, but the "Sleep Watch" was invented years ago. I use it and its so jokes.

  • HANK, THE REM ALARM EXISTS NOW! and it's an app for an iphone. i don't even know what to think about that

  • i love you so much <3 and i love your anger dance <3 and your facial expressions <3 and your voices <3

  • Did John's anger dance remind anyone else of Harry's occasional spastic movements in Potter Puppet Pals?

  • even waking up to music is hard. I have to pick a song I don't like, because If I pick a song I like, I end up hating it

  • My alarm is Porphyrophobia by Tom Milsom so I wake up happy every morning :)

  • Angry Hank.... <3333

  • That pigeon noise? Not so good in springtime at 4 in the morning. But still amazing video!

  • NERD RAGE! <3

  • @Ladybugz1029 the worst type i should know

  • Yep... so professional. 1:15-1:25.

  • hank is adorable

  • Your thing wanted to woken up has been invented, there's an app for that. It can also play pleasant songs from your iPod

  • 3:14

    Stuart from MAD TV. Hahaha.

  • The sleep cycle watch exists. I think I've seen it in Skymall or Hammacher Schlemmer.

  • Probably my favorite nerdfighter-sign outro. Just sayin' ^^

  • I came up with that idea too! Like an eyemask that detects rapid eye movement (REM) and will wake you up precisely when you have gotten the most from your sleep! It needs to happen!

  • "Why eyesight video you can take that as a dramatic..what are you doing?! Stop changing colors like that!"

  • oh my god. this is probably the second funniest vlogbrothers video. ever. "i wanted to throw that microwave out of the window of the hotel room." *dramatic turn* and "whyeee would i want to wake up to that???"

  • There is a reason why alarm clocks have to make loud and obtrusive noises, if they made peaceful, pleasant noises you would just go back to sleep when you heard them.

  • The iPhone sleep cycle app ..? I think that's what it does.. Plus, yeah my alarm clock makes that noise and it gets progressively louder :'(

  • Is Jesse demon child?

  • I have an alarm clock that plays bird calls, and whenever I hear a bird that sounds like the one that wakes me up, I sort of panic because I think I need to get out of bed, even if it's the middle of the day and I'm wide awake...

  • I don't like the noise my alarm clock makes either which is why I set my phone to go off and I get to listen to music when I wake up! Much better than the annoying beeping sound.

  • "its heavy" HA! I love this, he is funny mad, and drunk. 

  • whatever noise your alarm makes, you end up hating it.

  • @raylal97 agreed, I listen to a song that is nice and mellow then gets all intense, but after about 2 months of school, I despise that song

  • @spidermanandsnape i have to switch my alarm every few months cause i learn how to sleep through it.. :D

  • lmfao i love spastic, angry hank. hes funny.

  • CONTROL Z!

  • There is an app for that!!! and it's actually called "Sleep Cycle"

    ITS AWESOME!!!! It detects movement and can tell when your coming out of REM sleep and if it's within like 20 min of your set alarm time it goes off.

  • That kind of watch actually exists.

  • Rawr!! Hank smash!

  • I'm pretty sure that this video was way better than the one he accidentally deleted.

    Great video!

  • Definitely enjoyed the anger dance, as well as that particular nerdfighter-gang-sign outro. Best one I've seen thus far.

  • ...I don't get why the microwave should suffer for you deleting the video. It isn't the microwave's fault. :<

  • @trunkszetto I believe the app is called 'Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock'. Original, right?

  • I wake up to a whistling wizard every day. It's quite nice.

  • there's actually an iPhone app that does that. senses the sleep stage with the accelerometer based on your movement... dunno what it's called. :/

  • My alarm clock has wheels on it. When you hit the snooze button, it runs away. I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR BITCHING

  • I think it's hilarious to watch Hank's reaction to the eyesight camera changing colors on him

    "You can take that as a dramatic-... What are you DOING?!" XD

  • I laughed out loud when you picked up the microwave. Also, BEST BRAIN CRACK IDEA EVER!

  • lol- Anger dance xD

  • Anger dance FTW

  • Hank i just bought an app for my iphone, just .99 cents!, that lets you set an alarm to wake you up in the sleep cycle that makes you feel most refreshed. Its sooo cool! you put it on your bed and it senses movement to determine what cycle you're in. buy it! its ahmazing :O

  • @TheAvWizard That's sort of creepy...but mostly just incredible! Have you noticed a difference (in how you feel when you wake up) since you got that app?

  • i don't think i could wake up to anything else. just something about that ridiculously obnoxious noise.

  • Hilarious...*hugs hank tightly*

  • My clock gives me 3 choices to wake up to. Bells like the old fashion clocks, chimes as in wind chimes, or cathedral bells. Alot better choices than the electronic beeping sound...yuck.

  • Have you ever seen Hot Rod? You need to go punch dance out your rage in a wooded glen =)

  • Some of the very first consumer-grade digital alarm clocks (circa 1975) did make soft cooing or chirping noises, but you can guess what probably happened -- enough heavy sleepers (or hangover victims) missed their morning trains & blamed the clocks. So now all we've got are the meep-meeps. The few current alternatives (like a supposed "wind chime" alarm clock that actually sounds like a tiny dying robot) are crap.

  • Are there not calm alarm clocks? I thought I had heard of them. I can't use them myself because I'll sleep right through them, or roll back over and fall asleep once I hit snooze.

    I need a jarring noise to awaken me. It is my nature.

  • Alarm clocks are alarming.

  • Ah! Videos like this one are my classic Hank Green favorites.

  • oh dear. I have one of those horrid alarm clocks, and if, in my groggy state, i hit the snooze instead of the power when i get up, I can hear it go off 9 minutes later. One story up. On the OPPOSITE END OF MY HOUSE. IN THE SHOWER. Sob. Sob.

  • What he wants to hear is: cookie.

    hahahaah

  • today, I learned a lesson on the ephemeral live of umbrellas. In the middle of a rain storm...

  • You were in Montana? Sweet! I am in Montana, so that is awesome, even though I don't live in Missoula, but if anything actually happens in Montana, that is awesome.

  • u r sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooo

    funny ur the greatest

  • the problem with that hank is any noise that wakes you up is automatically going to annoy the hell out of you after a few days. I had one that made a cock-a-doodle-doo noise, cause at the time I wanted to be a farmer, one week after mum bought me it she had to buy another one because somehow it managed to get hevily stamped on when I was waking up, when that didnt shut it up it got the front taken off and all of the wires were cut into tiny pieces. as you can guess I had to pay for the new one.

  • @TheAnnaShowUk hehe you said cock ^_^

  • i heard about an alarm clock like that! a giant gizmo you get hooked up to that wakes you up in stages using sound and temperature and things based on where you are in your REM sleep

  • my friend has one of those alarm clocks!

  • HHAHAHA thats why i set my alarm to radio to wake me up ... much less annoying than BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

  • Yeah... Except I've woken up to Steven Tyler screaming in my ear once or twice.

  • Wow! For a minute there, I actually thought you were going to pop the delete key into your mouth, chew it up, and spit out. I probably would have :).

  • they DO have bio-watches that supposedly measure heart rate, temp, etc to tell when you're at a prime time to wake up you give it a 30 min range in which you can be woken up, and it'll hit you at the best time. check it out.

  • They had this sweet gizmo that was like those eye cover things that you wear when your sleeping that would wake you up just a litttle bit every night so you would remember your dreams better, but it didn`t work as good as the wanted.

  • yeah because your NEVER ridiculously unprofessional. (sarcasm)

  • Pidgeon clock ftw.

  • Because if it's a pleasant noise most people will keep sleeping, but there should be alternatives!

  • You know what Hank? I have my old alarm that wakes you up to the sound of running water, a rooster, a seagull, or a forest. Do you want it?

  • in which hank is being a dumbo

  • 3:14 O MY GOD. You have no IDEA how many times i watched that part.

  • I know how you feel, Hank.

    (This just happened.)

    After a crappy night of dealing with flaky people who are supposed to be running things, my computer decided to switch to Simplified Chinese. So I spent half an hour trying to figure out how to change it back so that I could read/type. I couldn't figure it out. So I had to restart my computer.

    BLEGGG.

    On another note, I love analog alarm clocks.

  • 4 AM flight? Not that bad.

    MacBook? Bah.

  • i wake up to my choice of seagulls, crickets, or BEEP BEEP BEEP every morning. guess which one i never choose.

  • Hank is Hardcore dancing ^^

  • The Zeo is part way there, it just doesn't have the alarm. You think a $400 device would have that.

  • 1:18 -1:23 Funny movements :)  Otherwise.. Please add captions to all the videos including this so the deaf can be involved and watch more of your stuff :)

  • My alarm clock makes sheep noises. :D

    It gets slwoly louder. Untill its likeee BAAAAAAAA! xD

    xdftbax

  • Im sorry to laugh at your pain...but I was dying of laughter this entire video!

    Youre awesome, even without the internet, even with an isight camera.

    You dont know how to FTBA.

    Also the sleep thing is the best idea ever.

    yaaaaaaaay Hank!

  • I love Hank tantrums!

  • hanktrums

  • Why were you in maine!!!??? I live there.

    JOHN GREEN- VISIT.

  • there is something like that... it works with your eyesight camera to track your movements to see what state of sleep you're in.

  • I don't know anybody who is such a light sleeper that cooing pigeons would wake them up.

  • I don't know about pigeons, but you can get an alarm clock that wakes you up with the lovely voice of Stephen Fry.

  • This is reminiscent of the angry World of Warcraft kid.

  • I actually was reading a Manga the other day and in the little side column the author writes in, the mangaka was talking about weird gifts she'd gotten. And one of the was exactly what hank just said! She got a watch that detecs when your sleep is light and it has an alarm go off at that time.

  • I just love messages from the mangaka, they are always so interesting. ^.^ One of my favorite parts of reading manga.

  • Mine too ^-^! but it's just amazimg to me that it's the EXACT thing he was just talking about! ^_^!!!!!!!!

  • That sleep thing is SUCH a good idea!!!

    I've had that exact same thought! Well, not the wristwatch/brain clampy thing, more like i google average lengths of sleep cycles and try to plan sleeping x amount of hours.

    But still!

    You're so awesome. and way to go for never forgetting. :)

  • ahahahaha you're really funny :D!

  • We were up at my in-laws cabins and at about 6:00 AM I woke up to this noise that sounded like water running. And as I'm slowly opening my eyes I'm starting to hear sea gulls. The alarm clock beside me wakes you to an option of sounds. Trust me waking up to the ocean and sea gulls is just as annoying as waking up to the beeping clocks.

  • is he gay

  • Nope, married.

  • lmao "it's heavyyy"

    That was just beyond adorable :]

  • oh and you like my little pony toys

  • haha you have ulcerative colitis

  • I had an alarm clock that made one of three noises:

    1. cooing pigeons

    2. seagulls

    3. the ocean

    It was quite nice until it broke. :(

  • Well 2 things. 1. Alarm clocks are annoying because annoying will wake ALLMOST anyone up. 2. Cell Phones can sound however you want them to. I wake up to "Sweeney Todd" music every morning but of course if I hear any sound every morning eventually I get use to it and can't hear it at all in which case I change the alarm tone. At this point the standard alarm clock noise will never wake me up ever again because it's a standard alarm clock noise.

  • Do you reeeeaaaallly want to add MORE technology to your life?hmmmm?What if it screws up,and messes whih your head while your dreaming,and tells you stuff like go start fights at biker bars,,,ya know?

  • lol?

  • how could you do that to your poor mac book! i have the same one as you, i named it margo

  • i look in awe upon your dobby-like self-flagellation *bashes body against mattress*

  • lol omgsh..lol gahaha ..hes like worse then dobby

  • I heard on the radio about 5 years ago that scientists were developing an alarm clock that would wake you up in the REM sleep cycle.....it never happened

  • My alarm clock crows like a rooster

  • There are no recovery tools for mac? Come on, even apple users need to be able to restore deleted files....

  • Your alarm clock sounds like the Beaker lol

  • Someone who I know has got a ringtone on his phone, and he has that as his alarm, and it's a really nice sound - it's like bird-song

  • They have a type of clock thing that will wake you up when you start coming out of the REM sleep....but that's the closest to your brain crack idea that's been invented thus far. XD

  • Tip: use your cellphone as an alarmclock, 'cuz if you got a decent one that plays mp3's you can put your own sound on it to wich you want to wake up to, I even heard that sony eriksson has one with an alarmclock that if you wave your hand over it , it goes to "snooze" ....

  • on pcworld theres an article thats not too old and its like top gadgets for college or something, and it has an alarm clock that determines your perfect sleep cycle

  • that watch thing actually exists. My friend told me about it.

  • yay Maine! I live in Maine

  • 3:00 to 3:18

    WHY WOULD I WANNA WAKE UP TO THAT!?!?

    lolz

  • Respironics "SleepWare" sleep monitor... you could maybe program it to do that.. it monitors biosigns during sleep. Or, you could use one of the OpenEEGs (but kinda dangerous)

  • I'm sorry Hank, but I'm happy you lost your footage because this is one of the funniest videos you've made!!! LOL!!! Some of those faces are absolutely brilliant!!! Priceless!!!

  • I like the bad camera. I also like the alarm clock crack. =D

  • I live in Maine. :)
