Exactly, but there is so much more, for any taste. Aside from all of
the various educational videos, as you've touched on, there are lots of
entertaining things, and a combination of the two.
My favorite channel would have to be this one linked below... his humor
is exactly on point, and the random one-liners are hilarious. (E.G. *
lifting a random car part * "Well, this thing is heavier than Rosie
O'Donnell!")
He drags classic cars out of a ditch that have been sitting for 20-30
years, hacks them together on site, and drives them home, sometimes 600
hundred of miles, sometimes without brakes. If he breaks down far from
home, he might "do the right thing", and buy a 45 year old beater truck
along the way, hack it together, and tow the car home... lol

First 40 seconds gives you an idea of what the whole channel is about.
I was hooked when I watched him use brake cleaner with a lighter to kill
hornets in the door, LOL
