The F-Bomb Increases Our Tolerance For Pain in History of Swear Words Trailer

In case you needed another reason to look forward to 2021, Nicolas Cage is set to guide us on a six-episode tour of the History of Swear Words.

Included in the just-released trailer for the new Netflix series is a scientific experiment that shows you can hold your hand in a bucket of nearly-freezing water for longer if you're swearing while you're doing it. 

History of Swear Words premieres January 5 on Netflix.

Andy Hunsaker has a head full of sitcom gags and nerd-genre lore, and can be followed @AndyHunsaker if you're into that sort of thing.
