After being thrown through space by a solar flare, Astrodude wonders if the universe is real. I mean... talking planets?

Fun Facts:
This episode has the most cameos out of any other video.
This episode marks the second time a character breaks the fourth wall, in this case, ChrisDaCow by saying "..Or, you know, we could be inside a video, right now." to Astrodude and staying in the video after the video ends.

00:00Hey, Astro Dude, you've gone silent for more than 10 seconds. Are you dead?
00:10No, sir, I'm... I don't know! Everything I thought I knew about the universe is wrong!
00:15How can I live with myself now? I don't understand anything anymore!
00:19Well, neither do I, but I know an expert who may be able to help.
00:22Wait, did we get Steve Taylor to do another one of these?
00:25Nope, I'm Chris DeCow. I do Minecraft Builds on YouTube.
00:30How's that of any help?
00:33Well, I did once model the entire universe in Minecraft.
00:36The entire universe? Wait, no joke?
00:40Nope, and let me tell you, I think I've actually cracked the code. The universe is a...
00:45Wait, but if you can recreate the universe in Minecraft, then that probably means I'm right!
00:51The universe is a lie! It's like a simulation! We're Planet Thog, right?
00:56Well, I don't think so, Astro Dude.
00:58In a simulation, like my Minecraft universe, there are tons of glitches and inconsistencies that can occur.
01:05If our universe was a simulation, we'd probably get those kinds of errors in the laws that make up our universe, like the laws of physics.
01:12But, we don't see those errors anywhere. In fact, the laws of our universe are extremely precise and consistent.
01:20So, yeah, we're probably not living in a simulation.
01:24Ah, okay, okay. You know what? Maybe a YouTube Minecraft builder is just what I need to ease my mind.
01:31Of course. It's also possible the simulation is just taking shortcuts we haven't even thought of when replicating the universe.
01:38I certainly took some shortcuts when building my universe. So, who knows?
01:43Maybe we are being simulated. Or, you know, we could be inside a video right now.
01:48But, but, but, but, but if that were true, I mean, what happens when the video ends?
01:53Huh? What? Oh, I'm still here.
01:57Anyways, thanks for watching. Subscribe to Solar Balls for more videos about space and the universe.
02:03And subscribe to my channel for, well, the same thing, but in Minecraft. Bye.
