Flat-Earth Nut MrThriveAndSurvive Questions NASA's "Blue Marble".
As I was uploading a video responding to MrThriveAndSurvive's latest foray into Crazy, he was uploading an addendum to his video. He asks questions, so I thought I would provide some answers. :-P

In the latest installment on MrThriveAndSurvive's comedy Flat-Earth UA-cam channel, MrThriveAndSurvive demonstrates (again) that he doesn't know what "North" means. Also, he can't draw a circle for shit.

Richard Feynman Lecture -- "Los Alamos From Below"
Переглядів 1,3 млн8 років тому
There are quite a few copies of this Feynman lecture floating around out there, but most end prior to the question from the audience. After the lecture, a guy in the audience asks Feynman about his safe-cracking stories and Feynman goes on for about another ten minutes relating three different stories on his safe-cracking while at Los Alamos National Laboratories. Enjoy!

There is no shortage of nitwits on UA-cam who think the Earth is flat and/or that the Apollo Moon landings were faked. At some point, one of these twats, likely Eric DuBay or Jeranism, declared that only one picture of the Earth from deep space exists and this one picture is a fake or a composite image.

I often hear people say the Moon or Sun appears as big as their thumb, or that this or that object on a horizon is not the right size. This sort of statement is wrong for two reasons: (1) The object in question invariably "looks" smaller than the person thinks, and (2) It's meaningless to say the Sun or Moon looks as big as your finger or thumb without specifying the distance from the eye that ...

Call the inquisitors! Those telescopes and cameras are instruments of Satan. Did you not learn anything from Galileo Galilei??? There, I've explained it... Or at least that was the explanation 400 years ago.

If you think through his story about placing his wife’s clothes on the upper bunk in the men’s dorms you realize the governing board were worried that Feynman was cheating on his wife, so banned women from the men’s dorm 😅 “someone is sleeping with one of the guys”- but they surely knew it was him.
I’m still trying to figure out why Feynman’s wife wanted Litharge
At 27:10 he meant 1/243, not 1/273.
a+
Great !
Water doesn't curve around a ball, Liquid needs a container and water finds its level. Why don't you watch the documentary, 'Flatten The Curve'. Military personnel give testimony of a flat Earth after making revelations. The truth is Radar and Sonar can't work on a ball.
Milo who?
Feynman is the perfect example of the chatotic good archetype.
Meeting with Neils Bohr: 1:00:10
Lets make jokes about killing a bunch of random civilians and making everywhere radioactive. Feynman didnt give two fucks when "helping/dropping" the bomb. Why did Oppenheimer get blamed for the atomic bomb and not Niels Bohr? Bohr's was technically the one who split the atom in half by heating up an uranium ore. Bohrs and his colleagues didnt even know what happened til Lise Mietner had to explain to them how they split the atom by fisson. Granted Borh did help jewish scientists flee europe he also was getting money out of the deal since they started working for the u.s. gov. They took people like Feynman who didnt even have a degree that would take on the project to become a "legend in modern physics". They already knew they needed uranium 235 with plutonium 239 due to the isotopes(they knew isotopes meant radioactivity because of the uneven number of protons to neutrons)and a shell casing of beryllium since that's radioactive so it would set off a chemical bomb making the uranium heat up and explode since you are "cutting" an atom in half once the beryllium is activated. Essentially on a small scale you are making a battery. From the beginning to the end of it, Borhs was always around just never worked on it but told them how to make it. He got 2 Noble prizes for quantum theory and atomic structure. While Oppenheimer got the blame. Then feynman gets a noble prize lol. Why did we drop the bomb? There was no need to since hitler was already dead by that time. The U.S. gov wanted to become a power nation. They weren't scared of the nazis making an atomic bomb. Heisenberg stayed in Germany to try to make an atomic bomb but he ran out of time once Hitler wanted to invade Russia then killed himself. Everyone in the Manhattan project ruined physics as a whole and now it's become bullshit theoretical ideas that they know noone can prove like parallel universe, multiuniverse, string theory etc. We had dipshit Stephen hawking's who didn't know shit to now Neil degrasse tyson, Brian green, etc. I feel like our government purposely hand selected people for the manhattan project because they knew once the bomb was dropped physics would change forever because before everyone shared their ideas and go to conferences. Our gov put a stop to that because we wanted power. That's why after the war we split up the nazi scientists with russia. Feynman was good at grabbing attention. Feynman couldnt grasp the concept of how magnets work. They work from electrons being in alignment to electrons spinning in the same direction causing a magnetic force. He made up quantum electrodynamics when its bullshit. Everyone who made it up was people from the Manhattan project. All of the 29 original founders of quantum mechanics wanted nothing to do with it because they knew it was bullshit. Electrodynamics cant be real if it was then we would have a 5th force instead of the 4 forces of nature we know of making quantum mechanics/physics change everything. Also when going down to the 12th decimal point the math becomes incorrect. QED is basically the opposite to electromagnetism. He doesn't know how magnets work but was able to find a 5th force which is the opposite of electromagnetism. Feynman was great at teaching simple ideas to people with little background of chemistry, physics, and mathematics. He is an overhyped physicist that helped destroy physics for his own fame.
Lol, 'dipshit Stephen hawking's'. The utter irony.
8:57 Paul Olum predicted Christopher Nolan getting the Chicago scene wrong way back in the 1940s. Genius. Great find!
Nothing about the creation of a nuclear bomb and the destruction of life is funny.
"I'm a humorless, overly sensitive dweeb" says the random UA-cam commentor. Thanks for that.
Celebrating a monster is so human isn't it.
"It's a code."
My question is Is a glass from a car can really be a good protection from A Bomb light?
Why are you posting this? Trying to get some work done!
The part at the end where he talks about being behind a car windshield to watch the bomb was included in the recent Oppenheimer movie. So you know Christopher Nolan really did his research, maybe even watched this video himself. Very cool
Enjoy Drew.
At 27:00, Feynman has the interesting reciprocal as 1/273; it should be 1/243.
Funny and exciting like a cartoon. ua-cam.com/video/dgq-uyvgeoM/v-deo.htmlsi=2u9UnVD6Zky1y9mN Idiots idiots idiots
Math is fun 🎉, but asks the fundamental question of why do we exist?
The fact this has around this many views even after the most recent movie Oppenheimer
Wow i knew about him before the movie that just came out idk he called the picture of the movie advert
Introduced by the great Norm Macdonald 👏
"Leave us alone they said", so I left. GREAT LEADERSHIP.
Bullshit baffles brains, in reverse.
Hahahaha! An envelope of white powder😅😅😅
What an orator. His attitude about life given his wifes death was commendable. His attitude after the bombs dropped was disturbing. We dance on a razors edge and it's like only Feynman knew it.
I love Richard Feynman. There, I said it :)
OxFordBhaggVi!
Of course everyone knows that the construction of the bomb was possible with the implosion, but with the fifth dimension it can still be easily explained. Of course this lecture is very funny, but not the result.
Everyone involved in that project is a war criminal.
Has it struck any of you how the guys who dreamt up the nuclear bomb were not boomers?
the gift of discovering of Feynman and the wonder of finding things out, have been a gift to humanity. Roger Keelings note below is also another piece of the puzzle that make each individual moment of discovery magical. He gave everybody a sense of wonder that as long as you keep learning and looking, you find things out.
I am very disappointed as I learnt he was involved in making the atomic bomb. He deluded himself that he had a ‘social conscience’. You don’t contribute to making a bomb for the sake of peace. He, too, was uselessly intelligent like most, if not all, scientists in any given period.
Most important physicists worked on military projects during the war.
8:55 bro predicted Oppenheimer by Cristopher Nolan
Feynman should have been in _The Honeymooners_ .
Finally a lecture by Richard Feynman I can understand. As a mere chemist he was always baffling when on subject.
The Codes / Ink Eradicator and Valve / Window stories had me roaring with laughter ... If you could reproduce and bottle Feynman's charisma and talent for story telling, you'd make millions.
This is the best piece on UA-cam I have encountered to date. Must watch humanity,
This reminds me of working Inventory Control for a giant warehouse when I was 16 at my Dad's company. There was an office inside the warehouse dating from the 1950s, and ancient desks nobody had keys to. Using paperclips in my spare time, I opened Everyone's drawers to reveal ancient stuff. It was fun for us all. These folks had been sitting at these old desks they could never open! I went a step further, and fashioned paperclip keys with a bit of tape for each desk. I was their Hero. I also scared the Hell out of them, that this stupid kid could pick any lock and gave them keys that I made for each one. Good times. My Dad was the CFO for the company, after all. And a Captain in the US Army. I've always loved Feynman, never heard this story before. He was picking locks before I was born. It's so easy.
Must have been great to sit in that audience. Greater to work with him.
👏
computing power is a strategic resource.
R. Feynman wrote a book from his life. I won this book translated to czech in a school competition and it has influenced my life :)
