  • Approval of God: AdventureMase's parody video "What If Memes Suddenly Disappeared?" has been approved by Kurzgesagt, who agree that "a universe without memes is possible but pointless".
  • Creator Backlash:
    • Their videos on the Refugee Crisis and Addiction to the degree where they removed them both, as discussed in "Can You Trust Kurzgesagt Videos?".
    • To a lesser extent, their original "Limits of Humanity" video. While it didn't get taken down because most of the astrophysicists said the error that bugged them so much didn't matternote , they still decided to remake the video and pin the remake in the comments of the original video.
  • Crowdfunder Cameo: Backers are given their own birb that can appear in episodes. Most birbs, cameo or not, die horribly.
  • Science Marches On: In The Largest Black Hole In The Universe, Kurzgesagt cites TON-618 as the largest black hole in the Universe, with a mass of 65 billion solar masses. Since then, it has been retrograded to second largest, as its mass is now estimated to be "only" 41 billion solar masses and an even more monstruous black hole has been found: the Phoenix A black hole, with an estimated mass of around 100 billion solar masses.
