The Fixies English ★ The Flashlight - The Prosthesis ★ Fixies 2016 ★ Cartoons For Children
-
0:00 - 0:04Can you believe that Fixies are
Such itty-bitty creatures? -
0:04 - 0:08Even when they’re magnified
It’s hard to see their features. -
0:08 - 0:12They’re tiny, infinitesimal,
So small it makes you doubt. -
0:12 - 0:20But if you meet a Fixie, please,
Don’t let their secret out! -
0:20 - 0:21The Flashlight
-
0:21 - 0:22Where is that thing?
-
0:22 - 0:24Hi Tom Thomas! What are you looking for?
-
0:24 - 0:24The flashlight.
-
0:24 - 0:25Oh! Here it is!
-
0:25 - 0:26Why do you need it?
-
0:26 - 0:27Katya. I wanna talk with her.
-
0:27 - 0:28Why not use the phone?
-
0:28 - 0:30This thing's a flashlight, it's not a telephone.
-
0:30 - 0:31No, you don’t understand.
-
0:31 - 0:33Me and Katya came up with a secret code.
-
0:33 - 0:36If I flash just once, then it means: "Hello there!”
-
0:36 - 0:39Oh! And Katya has also said "Hello there" to you!
-
0:39 - 0:41And two flashes, what's that?
-
0:41 - 0:42Katya 's asking if everything's alright.
-
0:42 - 0:44Now I’ll tell her that everything's good.
-
0:44 - 0:45Oh, what’s wrong with this?
-
0:45 - 0:46I think it's not working right.
-
0:46 - 0:48I see, Nolik! But what's wrong?
-
0:48 - 0:51Any flashlight is nothing more
than a battery and a light bulb, -
0:51 - 0:54connected by some wires
that are used to make a switch in between them. -
0:54 - 0:56To turn on a flashlight you flip on a switch.
-
0:56 - 1:01That lets the electricity flow through the wires
from the battery to the bulb so it lights up. -
1:01 - 1:04And if it won't light up,
that means that the battery is dead, -
1:04 - 1:07the lightbulb is burned out, or the switch is broken.
-
1:07 - 1:10And now, let’s put all this theory into practice!
-
1:10 - 1:13I'm sorry but I don't have time right now, don't you get it?
-
1:13 - 1:15If I don't signal back she'll think…
-
1:15 - 1:17that I don't want to talk to her,
and that would just be terrible! -
1:17 - 1:19- Just don’t get all worked up!
- We'll help you! -
1:19 - 1:22But first we need to get the mack-o…
the pack-o-mat and come right back! -
1:22 - 1:22See you!
-
1:22 - 1:23Did you hear that? Masiya!
-
1:23 - 1:24What a weird sound!
-
1:24 - 1:24Uh-huh.
-
1:24 - 1:25That's new.
-
1:25 - 1:27Now we know what the noise was.
-
1:27 - 1:29Papus, can we use a pack-o-mat?
-
1:29 - 1:30To fix a flashlight!
-
1:30 - 1:31Really? Did you say a flashlight?
-
1:31 - 1:34Do you know the story about when Granddad
had to travel for miles on top of a dog? -
1:34 - 1:34It's true!
-
1:34 - 1:38He was sent on a very important mission -
a huge flashlight repair! -
1:38 - 1:39What kind was it?
-
1:39 - 1:41A special kind called a lighthouse.
-
1:41 - 1:45A lighthouse is a tall structure
with a huge flashlight on top of it -
1:45 - 1:48that is used to help ships and planes find their way.
-
1:48 - 1:51People have been using lighthouses
since ancient times. -
1:51 - 1:55The most famous of them all
is the Lighthouse of Alexandria. -
1:55 - 1:58It was built in Egypt more than 2000 years ago,
-
1:58 - 2:00and it was more than a hundred meters tall!
-
2:00 - 2:04The Ancient Greeks considered this lighthouse
one of the seven wonders of the world. -
2:04 - 2:08In ancient times people would burn big fires
on top of lighthouses. -
2:08 - 2:11Today the light comes from powerful electric bulbs.
-
2:11 - 2:14Many of today's lighthouses not only give off light,
-
2:14 - 2:16but they send radio signals too.
-
2:16 - 2:19Yes, thanks to lighthouses,
ships and planes for miles around -
2:19 - 2:23learn where they need to sail or where they've got to fly
in order to stay safe. -
2:23 - 2:26And thanks to that heroic deed of your grandfather,
-
2:26 - 2:28that big old lighthouse started working.
-
2:28 - 2:31Since then not a single ship has ever gone astray.
-
2:31 - 2:31Simka!
-
2:31 - 2:34And what if we don't just fix the flashlight,
-
2:34 - 2:35but we do something heroic?!
-
2:35 - 2:36Like Grandpus did?
-
2:36 - 2:36Uh-huh!
-
2:36 - 2:37Alright! What do you say?
-
2:37 - 2:39Let's jump on the back of this dog and get moving!
-
2:39 - 2:41Stop ducking! Grab hold of my hand!
-
2:41 - 2:42Chewsocka! No!
-
2:42 - 2:43Get out! Right now!
-
2:43 - 2:44Tideesh!
-
2:44 - 2:46That was really some heroic deed!
-
2:46 - 2:48Now it's time to go get that lighthouse fixed!
-
2:48 - 2:50Tom Thomas, hand the lighthouse over!
-
2:50 - 2:52- What kind of lighthouse?
- The one that's you flashlight! -
2:52 - 2:54- I have no use for it.
- What do you mean no use for it? -
2:54 - 2:57But then how are you gonna tell Katya
what she needs to know?! -
2:57 - 2:58I already told her.
-
2:58 - 2:58Watch this!
-
2:58 - 2:59No, that wasn't the deal!
-
2:59 - 2:59Yeah!
-
2:59 - 3:01You want to tell us our heroic deed was in vain?
-
3:01 - 3:04Well, if you need some heroic deed, then sure, fix it!
-
3:04 - 3:05-Hurrah!
- Hurrah! -
3:05 - 3:09They take care of our machines,
Irons, phones, and toasters, -
3:09 - 3:13MP3s and TV screens,
Even rollercoasters! -
3:13 - 3:16Without them clocks stop ticking;
Without them lights go out! -
3:16 - 3:24But if you meet a Fixie, please,
Don’t let their secret out! -
3:24 - 3:25The Prosthesis
-
3:25 - 3:27Simka, over here! Take a look at what I found!
-
3:27 - 3:27It's a bear!
-
3:27 - 3:28What bear did you find, Nolik?
-
3:28 - 3:31You know, it's the one Tom Thomas told us about.
-
3:31 - 3:33He was his best friend in the whole wide world.
-
3:33 - 3:35Until he became friends with you and me.
-
3:35 - 3:37Uh-huh, let’s try to wind him up!
-
3:37 - 3:39Come on, come on, come on. There you go!
-
3:39 - 3:41Now walk, Teddy. Go on, Teddy, yeah!
-
3:41 - 3:42Oh no!
-
3:42 - 3:45Poor little teddy bear,
they ripped his leg and didn't care. -
3:45 - 3:48We didn’t rip his leg. It was already broken.
-
3:48 - 3:50It’s all clear. A compound fracture.
-
3:50 - 3:51Then why don't we fix him?
-
3:51 - 3:53Tom Thomas will be so happy!
-
3:53 - 3:55Wait. It's not going to be that easy to repair it.
-
3:55 - 3:56We’ll need a prosthesis.
-
3:56 - 3:59The human body is built around a frame
of bones and joints. -
3:59 - 4:02And if you break one of the bones,
it will usually heal by itself. -
4:02 - 4:05The broken bone will grow back together
and you’ll be back to normal. -
4:05 - 4:10But sometimes bones or joints can break so badly
that it’s impossible for them to heal. -
4:10 - 4:14When this happens they have to be replaced
with an artificial part called a prosthesis. -
4:14 - 4:17A prosthesis can replace more than a bone or a joint,
-
4:17 - 4:19it can be made to replace a whole arm or a leg!
-
4:19 - 4:20And where are we going to get a prosthesis?
-
4:20 - 4:23I'm positive we can get it from Professor Eugenius!
-
4:23 - 4:23You’re right!
-
4:23 - 4:24Help is on the way!
-
4:24 - 4:26Hello! Professor Eugenius!
-
4:26 - 4:28I'm pleased to see you dear children!
-
4:28 - 4:29- How do you do?
- Hi there! -
4:29 - 4:32Professor Eugenius, can you make a prosthesis?
-
4:32 - 4:33What, have you broken something?
-
4:33 - 4:35No, not us! It was the bear. He broke his leg.
-
4:35 - 4:35What bear?
-
4:35 - 4:37The teddy bear that used to be Tom Thomas' friend.
-
4:37 - 4:39Ah! Now I see.
-
4:39 - 4:41Today with the help of modern prosthetics,
-
4:41 - 4:43more is being replaced than just arms and legs.
-
4:43 - 4:47For example, if you lose a tooth,
it can be replaced with an artificial one. -
4:47 - 4:48That’s also a prosthesis.
-
4:48 - 4:50And there are times
when a person starts losing their vision, -
4:50 - 4:52because the lens in their eye gets foggy and can't focus.
-
4:52 - 4:54For this there's another kind of prosthesis -
-
4:54 - 4:56a new clear artificial lens.
-
4:56 - 4:59A prosthesis can also be used
to help people with poor hearing. -
4:59 - 5:04A tiny device can be put inside of somebody's ear
so they can hear what's going on! -
5:04 - 5:05And that's not all!
-
5:05 - 5:10People have even learned how to treat a sick heart
by replacing its worn-out parts with prostheses! -
5:10 - 5:13What fantastic inventions these prostheses are!
-
5:13 - 5:15It's amazing what they can do!
-
5:15 - 5:17They help people live a full life!
-
5:17 - 5:19Professor, is it working out?
-
5:19 - 5:20We'll know soon enough.
-
5:20 - 5:20Done!
-
5:20 - 5:20Here you go.
-
5:20 - 5:22Thanks so much for your help, Professor Eugenius!
-
5:22 - 5:23Not at all. Take care kids!
-
5:23 - 5:27In gadgets and devices
Our work will never end, -
5:27 - 5:31Appliances are fickle,
They need a loyal friend. -
5:31 - 5:35At morning, noon, and midnight
Of every single day -
5:35 - 5:39When there is an emergency
You know we’re on our way! -
5:39 - 5:43One, two, three - Tideesh!
Inside we’ll be - Tideesh! -
5:43 - 5:46All day and night - Tideesh!
We fix things right. -
5:46 - 5:49Well now this old friend of Tom Thomas'
will be just like new, Nolik. -
5:49 - 5:53Simka, if Tom Thomas makes friends
with the bear, then what? -
5:53 - 5:54Will he stop being friends with us?
-
5:54 - 5:55Hi everybody!
-
5:55 - 5:55Hi there!
-
5:55 - 5:57Oh, my teddy bear!
-
5:57 - 5:58You’ve found him for me!
-
5:58 - 6:01And you’ve fixed him! Oh, thanks a lot!
-
6:01 - 6:01Yeah.
-
6:01 - 6:02It's just like Grandpus said,
-
6:02 - 6:04"A friend that's old is better than two that are new."
-
6:04 - 6:05Who's new and who's old?
-
6:05 - 6:06Well the bear is old.
-
6:06 - 6:07And we're new.
-
6:07 - 6:08Nolik, it's not true!
-
6:08 - 6:09You’re the fixies, guys!
-
6:09 - 6:13You are my very, very best friends
in the whole wide world! -
6:13 - 6:13- Tideesh!
- Tideesh!
