Hank says P4A 2024 was the largest Project for Awesome ever, raising over $3.5 million, and, too busy for a regular video, shares a livestream clip in which Tyler Thrasher asks him would-you-rather questions (juiciest Hank, escaping as an ant, an item for 15th-century Europe, giving birth to a snail, death in space); he closes by plugging a Denver-area stand-up show.
What is said
The parts of the video and what is said in each (★ — how much it matters to the video).
00:00:00 — Post-P4A mess, the record P4A total, and why this week's video is a livestream clip
- ★ Hank is still surrounded by confetti and trash after the P4A, has not cleaned, and ate a baked bean ice cream sundae, which was good. (playful) — 00:00:00 · Project for Awesome
- ★★★ Hank says the Project for Awesome 2024 was the largest of all time, raising over 3.5 million dollars in total. — 00:00:00 · Project for Awesome
- ★★ Too busy for a regular video despite many complicated video ideas, Hank has edited one of his favorite P4A pieces, with Tyler Thrasher, into this video. — 00:00:00 · Project for Awesome
00:00:42 — Would-you-rather questions from Tyler Thrasher on the P4A livestream: juicy Hank, ant-sized Hank, a 15th-century gift, moth or snail, death in space, the crystal wizard hat
- ★★ Hank would rather be the juiciest Hank in the world than the driest: any human is far juicier than dry, so max juicy is closer. (playful) — 00:00:42
- ★ Hank would rather have gummy teeth than noodle fingers, because fingers matter more to him than teeth. (playful) — 00:01:16
- ★★ Shrunk to ant size, Hank would eat spilled Nerds, hide from Katherine, then spell out a crumb message asking her to fetch Tyler from Oklahoma to restore him. (joke) — 00:01:39 · Katherine Green
- ★★ Asked what to take to 15th-century Europe, Hank would choose understandable, hand-made-looking mechanical technology, such as a microscope, an older telescope or a watch, not something too far ahead. (hypothetical) — 00:02:41 · Europe
- ★ Hank would rather give birth to a slimy snail than a moth, out of the butt, since the slime helps and he could keep it as a pet. (joke) — 00:03:27
- ★★ Hank would rather experience death in space than in a volcano, thinking space death less painful and probably faster. (hypothetical, hedged) — 00:04:10
- ★★ Hank notes that a person would float on lava, since it is liquid rock with the density of rock. — 00:04:10
- ★★ In space, earbuds would pop out because any air trapped in the inner ear would expand. — 00:04:39
- ★★ Hank shows a crystal wizard hat he commissioned from an artist who goes by the Felt Forge on Instagram, perfect for a livestream. — 00:04:39 · Instagram
00:05:21 — Jared's dry outro, sign-off, and Hank's stand-up show at Comedy Works South
- ★★ In the outro a character calling himself Jared says he would have answered differently and would desperately like to be dry. (joke) — 00:05:21
- ★★ Hank will perform his show at Comedy Works South on March 18 for people in Denver, Colorado Springs and Boulder. — 00:05:21
In the description and comments
- ★★ The description thanks everyone for a fantastic P4A and proposes doing it again in about a year. — video description · Project for Awesome
