You on tranquilizers then?
I have to watch most youtube videos on 2x and even then I often skip through a lot of the video because no one can get to the damn point. Gotta keep those watch times up by making a 15 minute video about something that should take 3 min to describe... by filling the video with so much bullshit that we all skip through it and watch about 30 seconds on 2x before clicking away.

Watched a little of it, and I don't think he talks too fast. Of the two or three minutes that I watched, I actually sped through some of it at 2x. He's talking about a measurement system. What's making your head spin about this?
And as an aside, I don't know why everyone claims that UK switched over to the metric system when they still have this hodge-podge of units. A lot of things are still sold in imperial increments, like the 4 pints of milk he showed. Simply slapping "2.272L" on the bottle and putting it in a larger font doesn't count as truly switching in my view. The situation isn't as bad as it is in the US, but it doesn't seem as different as a lot of people like to make it out to be. The metrication of the UK is very surface level compared to a lot of other places.
