00:00I was risking blindness yeah yeah yeah I'm an idiot yeah like this this this like occasionally
00:07not like staring at it the whole time because that would be painful it was like kind of like
00:12awe-inspiring it didn't live to my expectations to be honest I expected it to be a bit of a
00:17blackout even for just a minute and it wasn't we wanted to see it because the next one's in
00:222080 well we won't be here by then yeah but it wasn't as spectacular as we thought it might be
00:27we have our glasses from 1999 these glasses are from 20 what did we say 27 years old and they're
00:34immaculate that's just absolutely mad to experience the disappearing of the sun 1999 was the last time
00:43I was about this big brilliant really great and very cool to see the sun disappear like it's wild
00:50when I walked outside and had a look I couldn't see anything it just looked like it was slightly
00:54darker I even took my phone I tried to take a picture but there wasn't much you could see
00:58I guess it's kind of cool but it wasn't really a big deal for me personally just the fact that
01:02like
01:02the light shifts down all around you is like a remarkably humbling experience when you realize
01:08that it's like the moon passing in front of the sun puts things in perspective that we're just a
01:14a speck of dust on this rock and a vast expansive universe
