History is something that surrounds us constantly. We live through it, we learn about it in classes throughout school, and we learn from it. But what about the not-so-well known history? In this YouTube Creator Spotlight, I’ll be talking about the channel Weird History.

Weird History is a channel that teaches and talks about the history that a lot of people might not know so much about. Topics range from Victorian skirts to the real Captain Morgan. There’s even a video on how the invention of the Teddy Bear might have led to Teddy Roosevelt and Howard Taft becoming political rivals. On the Weird History channel, there are so many interesting things to learn about.

What’s best about the Weird History channel is that there’s really something for everyone to enjoy. Topics don’t just cover only one period of time, or one type of historical event. Videos can be on anything ranging from small events to huge, history changing events. Plus, everything in between is included as well.

Make sure to check out the Weird History channel on YouTube. There’s sure to be at least one thing on there you’ll find interesting, and you’ll learn a thing or two while you watch!
