We Take A Best Friend DNA Test

can we explain our friendship via actual DNA analysis let's talk about that [Music] good mythical morning first things you know we got a big announcement that we want to make for all you people who love Spanish or know Spanish or know somebody who knows Spanish now back on April Fool's Day we did lay a fool joke will be released at Spanish over dub version of that day's episode on this channel we didn't say nothing about it until now cuz it gave us an idea why don't we do this for real and we have yeah and we're calling everybody rat-boy Dos Amigos Diaz it's a whole new channel good mythical morning in Spanish and that's exactly what it is it's good mythical morning in Spanish commando ving una cara en su comida no Mara furanose Carnaval is linked in the description subscribe tell your spanish-speaking ok today is national bestfriend a blink and you're my best friend am I your best friend you know what kind of shake was about to happen there you were gonna shake my right hand with your life I just what was gonna happen because that's because my wife is my best friend my best friend know right you're my best friend we've been best residents first grade but linked I hate to break it to you that based on some recent science that has been done we may be best friends simply because of our genes brother and I don't mean the fact that we both wear skinny jeans I mean genetics but you just call me brother do you know something that I don't interestingly yes I've done some research and I have learned and you know this because we talked about this a little bit ahead of time a recent study out of Yale University says that your best friends are very likely to have DNA that is similar to yours they studied 2,000 people and found on average French share about 1% of the same genes what while strangers share almost nothing and that may not sound like a lot but 1% is the same amount of genes that you would share with someone who is your fourth cousin so somehow we magically genetically know who we want to be friends with because our genes the same no I don't know exactly this isn't a they're not they don't this is not a correlation thing this is a or this is simply a correlation we don't understand the causes necessarily they're explorer eyes things this is what they find is that people who are best friends have similar DNA incidentally we actually have had our DNA sequence we have a way to test this today for us and that sounds like something that I would be making up and then would tell you know obviously being sorry could be I would be being sarcastic you know I speak but no we actually submitted our spit to a website called 23andme last year and at that time not a sponsor but right but yeah we were just very interested in having our DNA analyzed well my wife got it as a gift for me because I've always wanted to like see what's up about me you know and that's a good question I've been asking why am I the way that I am right and then I was like she she learned some crazy stuff about her family that's time for another episode then you got it and you learn some things so if you're gonna do it I'm gonna do it so that's the first reason we're friends is because we both get our DNA and data but here's the thing about 23andme which again not a sponsor but not a sponsor it's a cool service but it's got the crap out of Lizzie oh yeah the thing that is unfortunate at this point is the FDA passed this or basically banned them from giving you your health trait data alright you can only get ancestry information but you know what we got in before the ruling is so we've got all our health trait information and we're going to share it publicly on the Internet we're sharing our band genetic information with you but well now what we're doing is we're gonna talk a little bit about some of the results that we had and see how they compare to see if this is actually true okay test first of all I am 99.9% European mostly British and glad for the no I don't know it seems weird where's wanted maybe wrong sixty three point nine percent Irish well I think a sixty three point nine percent British and Irish yes that's what I met do you need me to help you interpret your data correctly my genes don't allow me not understand my dear nineteen sixty three point nine percent Irish you're from the British Isles sixty-one percent incidentally this is similar i'm similar but I am only 98% European because I am 1.3% sub-saharan African link why are we clapping it yes I think this explains why I'm kind of into Yolandi Visser the noted vocalist of the South African rap rave group die Antwoord any any excuse to put just a quick clip of her and her brother or her boyfriend or that other dude from chappie on the screen here's where it gets a little bit weird because there are these things called haplogroups basically DNA families traced back to like some genetic mutation that occurred in a certain place in time and both your mom and dad's lineage link is where groose was she'll be back what's happening yep probably and that's where it came from on my dad's side I am a member of our 1 B 1 B 2 a 1 a 2 F 2 on my dad's side I am a member of group R 1 B 1 B 2 a 1 a 2 F 2 that's so crazy we're both members of R 1 B 1 B 2 a 1 a 2 F 2 that should be super exciting it's not that exciting this is the most common haplogroup in Western Europe but it's a reason to be friends the same Happel is the reason to be friends let's move on to Neanderthal ancestry they can tell you how much of your DNA is from Neanderthal yes mine is 2.7% I'm in the 42nd percentile among European users I've got an estimated 2.9 percent I am in the 84th percentile of people with with that much Neanderthal you know what me beat you yes you make fire me make more fire this 85 percentile this is cleared up so much my experience with link he's more of a caveman than we've got every eyebrow Ridge ok now we're gonna get into some long low boogers coil some different trails they're able to tell these different things like the way that your your your genes will be manifested into an actual trait okay like for instance we're both likely to be lactose tolerant which is true we drink milk all the time you have forever as we talked about which became way at home at night I am a recent convert to milk thanks to cereal but would you not do in milk I guess I was doing a mill order in this I wasn't doing milk I was doing dry cereal mess like granola honey you know I just realized this because I didn't drink milk my love for cereal was impeded it was an adult thing was it my love for cereal is late-onset kid like that's why I love cereal so much you need to work on that is that in my DNA markers no but we here's what is in your DNA I used to just eat waffles and pancakes out of the microwave we both have typical typical pain sensitivity once you pinch my arm only friends would do this by the way why don't you pitch more and birdie this pitch bar let's pitch our let's pinch ours at the same time I'm mildly that's uncomfortable to me but now I'm going harder more than a typical amount I'm pinching as hard as I feel like I'm going to pierce your skin oh it's hurting me too but it's hurting the same because we have typical I'm giving you a little finger no no no no dude I just fingernail yep oh that hurt um we I would say I'm a I'm I'm very tolerable to pain well your typical well my genes say that uh how about this male pattern baldness link I have typical odds but congratulations in the end or thought you have decreased odds you got hair everywhere growing my hairline grow you're gonna have you're not gonna be bugged but it's good thing this is a wig I'm gonna be okay I I think I have negative I have hair on the top of my nose now I had to that's different I had to pluck a couple of hairs off the top I know you're Batman we're talking about baldness on the top I know Nosal I'm just saying it's going negative how about this asparagus pee I mean I was afraid that my wife was gonna walk in the bathroom and see me plucking a hair out at the top of my nose but thank you just there's nothing there's nothing more embarrassing than that so I'm just hitting it on the head if you walk in on me in the bathroom and I'm plucking the top of my nose just I warned you are they gonna walk in on you okay do you smell that's right when you eat asparagus and you pee do you smell the aspartic acid because that a genetic trait I don't I do smell that you don't I don't know if you don't if you don't know you don't because if you do you do ain't one thing of asparagus it's like it's an asparagus factory out of that you're no it smells like asparagus in the sounds like a type of asparagus it makes with urine maybe we shouldn't be friends these last two we're gonna test right here okay cilantro aversion this is if you have cilantro aversion you think cilantro tastes like soap here's your cilantro cilantro cone and here's my cilantro cone mmm we can sell these in the State Fair now I was not I will say that I haven't love cilantro it but I've never thought about what it tastes like on its own so this is a legitimate test good on it so it is a little soapy no definitely soapy like nothing but soap like nothing but sound like bar of soap like I said naughty words and my grandma shoved a bar soap in my mouth yeah and that's not happening to me I get a little soapy but not a lot of soapy I said a naughty would warrants and my Nana at Nana's house she took me in the bathroom Jay didn't have any bar soap they just had liquid soap and she was like I'm too far into this she opened my mouth she squirted liquid soap in my mouth oh she had to prove her point she could've just given you cilantro and lastly link Wow it says that our our earwax type should be wet which is a honey colored and sticky which is honey very sticky you know I don't usually have a lot of this because I use my earhole can you help me find it I use somewhere under this flap of hair now we don't recommend this you're not supposed to use q-tips like this I don't have a lot of wax in my ear typically that's not wax that was something else no it was something from the cilantro still my fingers but I should be able to get something honey colored out here here yeah look look there's a little bit there's a little bit of honey color but you honey colored but not much sometimes I can get like a continent but it's not gray and grayish yellow and flaky right you're hurting yourself over there don't make that face wasn't that's the face I make when I pluck nose hairs to pull it out and tell me that it's the same color oh oh all right that is pleasant you know what this is why we're best friends Cheers here you eat my Valley okay so analyze your DNA with your friends or just know that you probably have some half below thing going on I don't know what the application is because you can't even go on the website and they tell you this information anymore Lobby or Congress or ancestry lobby or Connells this is gonna become a new political thing and thanks for liking and commenting on this video you know what time it is hello I'm Matt ill and I'm from Venice Sweden this is my moustache elastic and this is my good mythical morning hoodie and it's time to spin the wheel of mythicality remember you can get the red link bobbleheads at rhettandlink.com/store and this box can turn into a good mythical morning set that you can then place us on and thanks to those of you've already bought a bobble head and have taken pictures of it from the world using hashtag GMM bobble click through to good mythical more where we are gonna analyze more of our DNA results remember congratulations Josh Tillotson you in a bad self there he is hold that link you want to do a slow-mo video because for some reason that's what I got up work with me here well muscle performance likely sprinter we both know I ain't no sprinter like you see we play soccer

for the lazy

edit: I have heard it pronounced this way in London & Australia as well. If you are English speaking without any exposure to Afrikaans or to correct pronunciation, I guess it makes sense to say "dye-ant-woord."

[u/Intup]

I was listening to Finnish radio at work at one point. They were talking about Die Antwoord, constantly pronouncing it just like in this video. Bothered me quite a bit more than it should have.

[u/xxdofxx]

As an American who has always pronounced it this way, what is the correct way?

[u/MeanwhileInSAfrica]

Die ant word!

[u/[deleted]]

I'm an American and always read it as if it was german, ie: "dee ahnt-vort". I also understand that Afrikaans came from dutch and from studying german I know they are similar, I doubt most Americans would know this. Most of us study useful languages like Spanish and most probably think Afrikaans is a tongue clicking indigenous language. I probably sound elitist but i just know my people.
