  • It is so strange to think of you as a William.

  • I like how Ransom Riggs is tagged in this, and how he is now a best selling author.

  • LOL!!! This was great! What I really liked was that I wikipeadiaed you like 10 minutes before I watched this and it said William on your page! I was so totally freaked out I exited it! You are so a Hank. I don't think I could deal with you being called william. :( Now that I see this video it all makes sense. ^_^

  • Willy the Wildcat was definitely my middle school's mascot.

  • Willie the Wildkit from Will Grayson, Will Grayson! XD

  • I miss the side bar

    00:59

  • What are these winter sports of which you speak? Snow? I wish. I live in Texas...

  • But your first name actually is William....

  • I thought you were going to say "I hate Sesame Street". Yikes! My heart almost dropped. :)

  • big macs have an average of 74 sesame seeds

  • I can adhere to that because I go by my middle name!! And bank people are like "what??" and I'm like "sigh" also attendance sucks every first day of school and whenever we have substitute teachers!!!!

  • I am REALLY glad I didn't start being a Nerdfighter during this. Cause 1 Video a week is just NOT enough

  • it is horrible at the bank...

    they say ''but this is made out to hank''

    and i say ''but i am hank.''

    ''no you are william.''

    ''yes but-''

    ''no you are william. william.''

    ''yes but i'm.. i mean... i am also hank''

    ''william.''

    ''Ahh! just GIVE ME MY MONEY!!!''

    nice one hank.

  • WILLY THE WILDKIT.

  • " I just SIT and i GO!" *points down* Oh hank 8D

  • I was so terrified he was about to say "I hate Sesame Street." That would NOT be ok.

  • uhm.. i'm kind of scared.. my high school was also the Wildcat, and my high schools mascot name was Willy.. thats kinda weird...

  • 1. Aww. Hank. Do you have diverticulitis? My dad has that. :(

    2. WILLY THE WILDCAT WAS MY HIGH SCHOOL MASCOT TOO!

    Not that we went to the same high school or anything. I don't think you've ever lived in south Louisiana. :'(

  • @tbgiglibuni He has Ulcerative Colitis. He wrote a song about it, too!

  • THAT IS WHAT WILLY THE WILDKIT IS FROM. It is based off it's big brother, Willy the WildCAT.

  • My high school was wildcats too. :D

  • Okay, Hank's reasoning for his sled-love could also be like, the same reasoning he would use for being a sitzpinkler. "I don't need balance, I don't got balance! I just sit! And I go!"

    LOL

  • @24MandaPanda96 It's like you are in my head!

  • "I ,like to sit down and go down" In my pants.

  • I feel your sesame-seed-related pain. I'm allergic to sesame.

  • William? William Green. Nah. Gotta be Hank!

  • I have sick sledding video yes?

  • I hear you and your lack-of sesame seeds. I'm allergic. If I have sesame seeds, I could die.

  • 'I like to sit down, and go down..' Nice Hank, real nice. 

  • "Just gimme my money!" lol XD

  • "Just gimme my money!" lol XD

  • So, I really like the 2008 intro!

  • "I like to just sit down and go down"

    That's what she said.

  • whoa! wait! what?!?! willy the wildcat?! no way! willy is a wild kit!? see ETHS! we couldn't be wildcats cause... we are so close to northwestern.... (NERDFIGHTERS!)

  • do u have adhd? i do XD

  • Lean to the right!!!!!!!

  • "i like to sit down...and go down"

    THATS WHAT SHE SAID.

  • Is that an InuYasha poster behind Hank's head?

  • @jacysp  yes

  • Yay for Charlieissocoollike!

  • HE SAID WILLIAM TREVOR!

  • "I just sit, and I go!"

    How much did that sound like you were going to the toilet?

  • I know this video is like two years old, but its really cool that both john son and dog share names with hank :P

  • I love sledding also. SO MUCH FUN. I can't balance either. too difficult. You're William? I did not know that. That's a weird thought...I will try to forget.

  • wow my middle schools mascot is the wildcats

  • DFTBA stands for "Don't Forget To Be Awesome"

    :D

  • I like to sit down...and go down... also.

    ;D

    Just kidding, sort of lolz

  • I'm not sure why, but your William situation reminded me of Paul McCartney's "William Campell" situation. good thing there isn't a "Hank is Dead" rumor going around... ;)

  • did he show a nintendo power magizen in the intro

  • Actually, it's the original Project For Awesome picture, which was designed to look like the old-school Nintendo Power logo.

  • I was ALSO a mascot! And I ALSO have no health insurance...and! and!! I ALSO was just thinking about being a freegan...I think that, secretly...I AM you!

  • "Well, I'm William and Hank-GIVE ME MY MONEY!" DFTBA.

  • whats "DFTBA"???

  • dont forget to be awesome

  • why doesn't he have health insurance?

  • They think they can't make enough money off of him because of his colon i_i

  • Because of his condition, most health insurance companies won't touch him because his medication is about £100 a WEEK(!).

    Hank and John posted some vids about the upcoming US health service debate about a month ago, there's a bit more info about it there..

  • Nice InuYasha poster!

  • Dang, I know. I go by my middle name, and it has made my life unnecessarily difficult. I can feel empathy for you, Hank. I really can.

  • hank! i was a wildcat, too!!! well i mean.... i wasn't THE wildcat. i didn't stand out in the heat at football games wearing a wildcat costume. but my hs mascot was a wildcat. hoohah! :D

  • Does anyone think what Hank said about sledding sounds amazingly wrong??

  • OMG! I was the school mascot too! I was the Buffalo!

  • So, even though ppl complained about the tag game, I have a feeling it is going to make a come back. It wont be because of me, I swear. I just have that feeling :)

  • lol at 0:31

    "No you are WILLIAM."

    "Well I'm William and I'm Han-JUST GIVE ME MY MONEY!"

  • i was skipping around and the video said the tag game..... does not have health insurence lol

  • lol,

    "Hank, you can't have this hamburger, because somebody decided to put sesame seeds on it." I feel sorry for you. lol.*Is a vegiterian*

  • I drooled with surprised laughter when you said that you were a paid actor...

  • not funny'

  • umm..thats not what i was looking for but nice try.

  • omg i juat notcied theres an inuyasha poster in the background. inuyahsa rocks!!!

  • sledging

  • WOW i'm a Wildcat at our school too and OUR MASCOT IS ALSO NAMED WILLY THE WILDCAT

  • comment 2 youtube tag youtube tag youtube tag!

  • Willie the Wildcat? What a name!

    I love the way you did your four sign, at 2:39. It's just a really awesome way to.

  • are there little tiny chickens in your colon?

  • @EyesOnlyFreedomVid As the two defining characteristics of tiny chicken disease are pressure from within and leakage, I really REALLY hope not.

  • I don't need balance...just a low center of gravity!

  • O_O NNOOOOOOOO!!!

    Don't get sick Hank!!! I'd hate to see you and your health bill if you ever get hunkered down with something!!!

    (Then again, I never saw you with anything worse then the flu here... It's just John who seems to get really sick... >_> wierd....)

  • I totally know how you feel about the name thing! My name is Dorothy Karen Lindsey Scott Huddleston because my parents actually wanted like 4 children and only got me, so they wanted to use all the names anyways (not really, I have no idea why but it's not cool.) Anyways, whenever I get legal documents, passports, drivers permit, all that jazz, they're like Dorothy? and I'm like no, Karen, can we just change it to make it easier? no... yeah lame...

  • That really is a beautiful site for sledding or pretty much anything at all.

  • My high school mascot was Willie the Wildcat, too! And I tried to high five you through the screen *sigh*

  • so was mine!

  • THAT MAKES ME HAPPY HE HAS A INUYASHA AND A COWBOY BEBOP POSTER and i cant see the other ones

  • You are William!

  • "Just give me my money!" I almost loled. . . which would be bad. . . Considering it's 3am. . . with ppl sleeping.

  • Comment 256:

    Holy Crap your real name is William?!

  • You're bright, amusing and decent - that's a trifecta! Please rethink your opinion on free health care. Visit several free clinics and then visit several private clinics. Then ask yourself which you'd like to be wheeled into should something catastrophic occur.

  • True, but some people can't afford health insurance, and the things that we don't like about poor countries health can also be in rich countries unless we do something about it. True it's not luxury hospitals, but something is better than nothing, and I think people deserve top be healthy no matter how rich/poor they happen to be.

  • Oh please lady! I advice you to take a trip to Sweden but right before visit the FAmOUS Cedar-Sinai of Beverly Hills (adjacent) Now according to the average American this is the Nirvana of US healthcare! Then go directly to sweden,then choose ANY hospital of your liking and compare it to any of ours here, incl Cedars! That I assure you will put a sock in your mouth not to mention there will be a little bit embarassing when you realize that some of your right wing friends lied to you.LOL!

  • I kept it civil and I would appreciate if you did too.

    I speak not from a right-wing agenda but from personal experience. Don't make assumptions about me and I won't make any about you.

  • I heard your intro music.

    When I was at Red Lobster.

    ... some Red Lobster employee is made of awesomeee!!!

  • I go to a gifted high school...

    We are the tree of knowledge...

    NERDFIGHTERS!

  • God. Every high school is the wildcat. And red and white.

    We're the OJR red and white wildcats.

    We're fantastically uninteresting.

  • that's amazing.

  • Hank was Todd the Cougar!!

    Also, I too have the same first name/ middle name confusion happen to me.

  • "i just sit... and i go." that can be taken two different ways.

    lmao. yes, i'm very mature thank you!

  • I do like sledding, but snowboarding is just more exciting. I am glad that winter sports actually give the option to still have fun even if you aren't that good at skiing and snowboarding.

    Yay, sledding!!!!

  • Later Bill.

  • "I just sit... and I go." lol Hank, I don't have any balance either.

  • Well, that's the point...

  • You are a motherfucking genius.

  • hence the name "nerdfighters"....

  • I have a somehow similar problem; Here you get a 'baptise' name aka official name and a 'calling name' aka how people actually call me. Mine are Elisabeth Anne vs Lianne... apperently very hard to understand for not Dutch institutions....

    and I am very glad you continued making vids!! FTW

  • I feel your pain Hank, I'm Walter Anthoy Kennedy (named after my grandfather), but my parents have called me Terry since the day I was born...it made school as a youngling very confusing.

  • ahahahahh nice video man

  • AAAAAAAAAAAH! WILLIAM!!!!

  • william????

  • So is he hank or william.......Lol

  • HE'S BOTH!

  • Lol William Hank Green THAT'S A MOUTHFUL! WTF Why did I get a thumbs down for my "so is he hank or william....... lol" comment? psshhhh Haterz You're all so silly! I love you all! ^-^ As Jazza/rhymingwithoranges handles haterz I say: I love You You are my best friend LMAO NERDFIGHTERS! FTW! DFTBA!
  • Possibly because Hank made it abundantly clear what his name is and it isn't even William Hank Green. At best it would be William Henry "Hank" Green.

  • Well it was just a comment :P

  • WTF Why did I get a thumbs down for my "so is he hank or william....... lol" comment? psshhhh Haterz You're all so silly! I love you all! ^-^ As Jazza/rhymingwithoranges handles haterz I say: I love You You are my best friend LMAO NERDFIGHTERS! FTW! DFTBA!
  • I love sledding, its perfect :D

  • XD Hardly anyone calls me by my given name either, but no one would make out checks to a name that isn't technically my real name. oOx

  • poop how do you tag people!!!

  • Inuyashe POSTER!!!!!!!

  • My name is different than my real name too! IT GETS SOOO ANNOYING!

  • BRILLIANT FRIEND!!!

    Petankero10 ๏̯͡๏)™

  • did john name his dog after willy? or maby willy isnt its name and my memory suks... that would explain y i almost went to summerskool...

  • John's dog's name iz: The Dread Pirate Fireball Wilson Roberts, its Willy for short

  • what was in the Tri tube?

  • uh... does that mean his real name IS William?

    I'm confused.

    I never thought I'd say this but Hank (or possibly William) talks too fast.

    sometimes.

    there I said it.

    Hank (or maybe William) talks too fast... sometimes.

  • His real name is William, he goes by Hank. But for banks and other important things like that, you use your given name.

    I see how that would be very annoying to deal with. xD

  • mascot hahhahaha nerdfighters hoo hah

  • Hahahahaha xDD I needed a laugh, and I got one. Thank you ^_^ That was entertaining :) On a side note, my mom has the same situation at the bank. But neither names are Hank nor William.

  • im so confused. is him name really william? or was he just kidding?

  • his name's really william

  • My Highschool was the wildcats too! and our mascots name was also willy!

    talk about a co-inky-dink

  • Same here!

  • "JUST GIVE ME MY MONEY!"

  • the mascot? you are the ULTIMATE nerdfighter!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What do you get when you plant a sesame seed? A sesame?  What is a Sesame?

  • I'm thinking you get a sesame street :P hehe

  • Lawlz

    Haha probably. I actually got that joke from Mitch Hedburg. It's funnier when he does it. :P

  • Known as Sesamum indicum, the annual plant reaches heights of 6feet and sprouts oblong leaves and seed pods. Cultivation in the U.S. is concentrated mostly in S.+ W states, while top global producers are China, India, and the W. Indies. Not limited to white, the seeds also come in more exotic forms: black, brown, and red varieties.

    On an interesting side note, rumor has it the sudden popping sound made when mature sesame seed pods split open is where we get the saying "Open sesame!"

  • excellent question and response!

    nerdfighters!

  • this is kind of random, but my dad has the same thing with his colon, and when he goes to fast food restaurants, he asks them for a seedless bun, and they give you two bottom buns. that way you avoid the evil sesame seeds. lol.

  • Also, I wish someone would tag me. It would be a good way to kick off video making.

  • If I started a band, it would be called Hedgehog Cybersquad.

  • I am a freegan too!

  • lmao omfg idk wtf make me laufh so much during this one.... but omgosh!!! heheheee.... mayb it's just his natural atmosphere

    xo xxKC <3

  • the sad thing is that I DONT KNOW HOW TO TAG!

  • Now you have an awesome nerdfighter alter-ego. In the day he is William Henry Green II. But at night, he becomes:

    HANK!

  • I feel your pain with the name thing. I grew up being called by my middle name. Eventually I just started going by my first name because it causes less confusion.

  • I said this before but Katherine is cute.

  • I agree, William is lucky. xD

  • the problem with sledding is the walking back up the hill. grr....

  • Me and my brother tried to do this on vacation and the slope was extremely steep and curvy and took ten minutes to go down on a sled and you're supposed to take a cable car up but we decided to just walk up. After half an hour of being lost, we finally found the track. And swore never to do that again.

  • aw no sesame seeds?

  • XD You're awsome.

  • "I just sit, and I go..."

    Same!

  • hello william henry green II. nice to meet you. ;)

  • I love how someone actually thought you and John weren't brothers. I mean, you don't look AT ALL alike or anything...

  • wow you must be the nerdiest boy ever! i loves it! have a great day hank

  • "i just sit, and i go" ahahah

  • what about the seaseme plant? there must be fields of seasimeey trees...bushes.... (or whatever they spawn) somewhere. down with seasem-E seeds! I have a question for hank, what kind of video games do you play? just wii? or do you play like halo or WOW or cod4 or mario or TETRIS(which is easily one of the best games ever)

  • inuyasha rocks!!!!!!!!! (sorry if i didn't spell that right)

  • utube drama rox!

  • 02:14-02:20 is hilarious. :D :D Really.

    I've watched the video like 5 times now or something, and I just love it. (:

  • oh! I was wondering why everyone kept calling you William in the comments. That's sooo funny!

  • I always wanted to be the mascot. Never had the chance.

  • 2:15-2:19 is one of the funniest things.......ever

  • you so hyper cool
