Why "checked twice"
Big stories attract big myths. The first version you hear is usually the most dramatic one, not the most accurate one. So every claim gets a second look before it makes the cut: back to the original source, then a hunt for the detail that does not fit.
If it is worth telling, it is worth checking twice.
That is also why every video has an article here. You get the argument in writing, with the key points laid out, so you can check it too. Spotted something that does not add up? Say so in the YouTube comments. Corrections are part of the job.
