―Life Noggin |
Pat and Ian[1], better known online as Life Noggin is an American YouTube channel that educates people on multiple topics, mainly space, the human body and even big questions. Each episode is usually 3 to 5 minutes long and focuses on one of the topics.
Because of being 3 to 5 minutes long, all the videos are straight to the point along with answering some side questions. They are all animated in a blocky style but circles are still used when needed. The protagonist character in this YouTube channel is called "Blocko", and there are other characters. Sometimes there are co-op videos with other YouTubers.
Trivia[]
- Some people call this channel "the brain of YouTube"
- Life Noggin has a 360 degree video for virtual reality explaining what happens in the human body, titled "What Happens Inside Your Body? - VR 360°"
