[00:00:00]This planet is made out of diamonds.

[00:00:03]It's called 55 Cancri e, and it is located 40 light years away, and it is eight times as massive as Earth, being roughly equivalent to the amount of shame I felt after [ __ ] a goat. Now, about a third of its mass, which is equivalent to three Earths, mind you, is made entirely out of diamond. Why?

[00:00:28]Because of its carbon-rich composition, massive internal pressure, and apparently the fact that its entire surface essentially consists of a massive ocean of lava. An ocean of lava that is perpetually spitting out little diamonds. But anyway, if you took just 1% of the diamonds from this planet back to Earth, those diamonds would instantly become worthless. Why? Because it would be so many [ __ ] diamonds that the price of diamonds on Earth would immediately drop due to inflation.

[00:01:00]Speaking of inflation, you should go to infodrizzle.com for all your news updates. Or you can watch a video of me using a bicycle pump to inflate my balls until they explode.
