TO CLEAR UP POSSIBLE CONFUSION: When Einstein said he wouldn't have lifted a finger, he didn't mean that he agreed with the bomb dropping. What he meant say that if he knew The Axis wasn't going to succeed in creating the bomb he wouldn't have encouraged The Allies to create it. Just the way Mr. Bodanis worded it made it a little ambiguous.
Serah Wint That's why I appose pretentious art. It's lazy and anti creative. It's about believing worth be ause of social steretypes and glamorising instead of real worth. It's the equivalent of religious belief when people say others don't get it. Sure you can apply yourself to art and surrealism, but what's missing is usually a well thought out creative structure.
Well strictly speaking, intelligence is how well you use the information you have, as you say. I merely meant that genius, are those few people who for some reason have a personality quirk that let's them step outside if conventions. Matter of degree perhaps, but I think its a useful distinction.
Has no one really analyzed how most people respond to failure and stress? A genius is an exception and Einstein's persistence is just another feature of his exceptionality.
To say Einstein wasn't a practical engineer is true but it's kind of analogous to saying, "Michael Jordan wasn't a good shot clock time manager". He was a successful theoretical physicist which is much harder than being any kind of engineer (a point to which those who are both physicists and engineers will readily admit). Engineering is a lower level engagement that one would never devote time to doing if one is engaged in theoretical physics and getting results. In fact, theoretical physics and theoretical mathematics are the highest categories of cognition which can be accomplished by the human mind. Engineering is awesome and, though it often makes more money, it is a lower ranking mental activity when compared to those aforementioned endeavors. No disrespect to engineers - I think some of what certain engineers do is beyond amazing and I also don't mean that every physicist is naturally smarter than every engineer - I simply mean being a physicist is a categorically more difficult task.
As an engineering student who hopes someday to be an engineer and either a physicist, computer scientist, or maybe (maybe) a mathematician, I agree with what you've said. But the problem your statement is out of content. He didn't mean to make "engineers more superior to physicists" that wasn't he's point at all! he just stated that in order to make a point, which is that building the bomb in itself requires practical knowledge, which is gained by engineers.
Well, some education methods are horrible when you see the out come. Watch this only if you are above 18 and have a strong nerves- www.liveleak.com/view?i=b00_1408017222
At every oral exam I have, they tell me that I know a lot about the subject, but that I have no structure in my presentation. Now I know how they feel when they tell me that
To be youself, and accept who you are is very crucial. He was human who understood how to use his brain. He is rolemodel and great man to all humanbeing.
I don't think anyone can speak for genius except the individuals blessed with it Similarly, sometimes I think a genius can't understand the gap between themselves and most people I think they have to put it down to persistence just to get past the loneliness of what being truly unique probably must be
Good question. It could mean that he wouldn't have done anything to stop the bomb, but it could also mean that he wouldn't have worked for America in the war.
First, it is far from presumption to call the speaker out on saying, "In 1905...his father thought he was a genius...", given that is in the public record that Hermann Einstein died in October 1902. Second, I would not call it presumption to make an inference based and what I have read of Einstein. Both his parents railed against him marrying Mileva Maric throughout their courtship. His father only gave his consent on his death bed and then asked Albert to leave him to die after Albert had rushed to Milan to see him. Einstein's father also died before he became successful which is the other half of the speaker's statement that I contest. After going through the humiliation of writing to professors advocating for Einstein, Hermann died soon after Albert only became a low ranking patent clerk. In nothing I have read has a direct quote from the father stating his disappointment, but it is hard not to infer that conclusion. This comes from various biographies. I would recommend reading, Einstein - Walter Isaacson.
reaper557 Still, it is your assumption. I personally would not have assumed that, though I would've clearly seen it as a possible option. Plenty of parents don't think of their kids as dissapointments even when they're in a far worse social/proffesional situation. I wouldn't be surprised if Hermann did, but I would be equally unsurprised if he didn't. And you did very much word your comment as a statement.
I completely disagree, Einstein was a genius of the highest order, right up there with Newton. His theory of relativity, was ground breaking. He was very modest, and preferred to credit others, than boast of his own accomplishments.
Persistence is part of it. Special relativity and general relativity each took 10 years, as do many groundbreaking theories including work of Newton and Leibniz and Shannon. Breakthroughs are unpredictable. Also, all great minds are often wrong, as Feynman said. One thing about these guys. They had fantastic powers of concentration and were also good at taking breaks. Fascinating subject.
Ah yes. His persistence, not his genius is why he was awarded time magazine man of the year. Remember kids, that guy face down outside your local liquor store breathing heavy at 10am? With enough persistence, he could learn to code and invent quantum calculus. Everyone is a genius, champ. Those coal miners in west Virginia are either lazy or not asking the right questions. When are people going to admit that some people have giant hands like andre the giant, some people are 7.5 feet tall like Yao Ming, and some people are fucking geniuses like Albert Einstein. Is it really that far of a stretch?
He didn't tell you in the video, but Germany and America both were working on building a Nuclear bomb. Whoever would build it first would win the war. So Einstein had no choice but assist the US in making the bomb. He knew it'd be a terrible thing for humanity and once created, the threat of extinction would always loom large and dark on our heads. Turns out, Germany wasn't even close to creating the bomb, they were experimenting with the wrong materials. As Einstein got to know this, he said, "If I had known, I wouldn't have lifted a finger."
“Nothing in the world will take the place of persistence. Talent will not. The world is full of unsuccessful people with talent. Education will not. The world is full of educated derelicts. Genius will not. Unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. The slogan press on has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.” - Calvin Coolidge
If you are ever rejected for a job, dont forget Einstein was rejected for the post of a high school science teacher. And that too it was AFTER he had published his now famous papers in 1905. Imagine looking at a resume that says "Discovered E=mc^2" and saying "yeah sorry but not good enough to teach at our school."
Although this guy is a fantastic speaker, i have to disagree with him. Yes Einstein was an extremely persistent character, however those ideas all his ideas, general relativity, special relativity etc... really was the work of genius. The level of creativity that had to go in to coming up with those theories is unimaginable. Yes a lot of hard work, but it really was genius, I'm a physicist and it's crazy to imagine anybody coming up with such.
John Hill Almost all men where like that back then. And women had no education or anything. The ignorance was profound all around. Makes you appreciate how far we have gotten. Edit: OK I know how that text might look. I did not try to put any feminist message into that. I just meant that it was the culture back then. People where really clueless
Yeaa Serah Wintit, wasn't like during the 1910's that only 7% of the women had secondary educated I mean it should be 100% right? Totally unfair compared to the HUUUUUGEE amount men with it I mean a whopping 8% of men had secondary education.... I mean that 1% just proves it. No women were EVERY educated ever before Gloria queefed justice on big daddy's face until big daddy surrendered, and there existed no physicians at all nor physicists before then....... But honestly, it's the same reason in EVERY fucking age when it comes to this, it's down to ECONOMICS and PRAGMATISM. And just as the media does with the "OMG look girls don't get education world wide", where they will either bluntly ignore that only a minor amount more boys than girls got to school or they will clump together boys and girls and put the number under the banner of helping girls go to school to inflate the numbers and ignore the boys. Even in countries like Iran, Saudi Arabia there are more women today that have secondary education. Why you might ask... well because men and even boys are the only one's by law obligated to provide for the family so education is only given as a necessary tool for that of which has been the reason since education among the masses has been possible. But then women who have no obligation gets room to get educated because men must get out to slave for the wage immediately. Many more reasons but that is the basics. And the only reason why men took over after the 1920's and especially during the 50's and 60's in western countries was because it was often harsh times economically for many becuase you know World Wars and other stuff happened. And more importantly the soldier that were forced to go to War were compensated with free education. And even with this women overtook graduation percentage already during the 70's though mostly like now it was a lot of fluff subjects with no future but still more. Then during the 80's it took over by a lot but also dropped in STEM fields by 20's to today's numbers, "coincidentally" the same time feminist lobbied legislation passed that changed curriculum and well.... apparently women are just lazy when they get pampered. Education throughout history hasn't been a privilege except for a tiny few. It was a obligation so as to being able to provide and the boys and men were tasked to do this no matter their own wills or desires sexual dimorphism and pragmatism. And regarding Einstein, well yes he was kind of an asshole. He was probably autistic in his focus and desire with patterns and objects instead of the social aspects of life. He liked to be by himself even at home apparently and one of his favourite places were a empty boat near his house.
No. He made a deal with his (soon to be ex) wife that he would give her the proceeds of any Nobel prize he received. In 1921 he got the Nobel for his paper on the photoelectric effect, and he did indeed give her the proceeds.
His persistence is owed to his curiosity for understanding the universe. So guys just follow your curiosity and naturally you would be persistent in that.
1:20 'it might be the sermon of the mount by matthew...'. Probably not the best example. Isnt it that Einstein was a brought up secular jew? There is some debate on how much he believed in a deity, but putting Christian doctrine on him is quite a thing, wouldnt you think. Or are you just talking 'Christian to Christian'?
Einstein once wrote a little girl is IQ was about 145, which is way above average. I do not believe in IQ over 160 anymore. A psychologist once told me their own IQ test don't go over 160. My mother had her IQ test tested twice when she entered University, because they thought the first time might be wrong. It was in the same numbers around 145. She learn to read and write by age 3 by looking at her older sisters do their homework, but she is not that good in science. So there are different kinds of smarts out there and the traditional IQ test only contains 3 types of intelligence out of eight. SO IQ test say something about a persons intelligence, but not about all the smart people out there. One thing is certain Einstein was very smart and I suggest you all do like me and take it with a grain of salt when you hear someone say their IQ is over 160.
As long as I know, IQ is calculated by measuring the score of the person compared to the average person of his age. For instance, if a 9 years old kid score 20 correctly while the average kid of her age only scores about 10, her IQ is 200. What you need to notice is that she is NOT smarter than a 30 years old adult who scores 40 and gets an IQ of only 100. It just means that she is mentally more advanced than her peers and that also means that you do NOT get dumber when you score lower in IQ test as you grow up. You just get "relatively" dumber in that case. Also, I agree that IQ only measures 3 out of 8 or 9 intelligence (depend on what sources you have). The thing is that intelligence is a very abstract concept and it can be really tricky to be "measured".
Maybe dude? I dunno. What I mean is that I am no expert. I still trust the psychologist I spoke with. It makes people look so smart giving those high numbers. But your explanation also makes sense. If you have a standardized test you should not need to take into account the average, but only the difference from the mean (score).
People commenting in here wont ever become Einstein or even close to him , they just here to take some motivation for a day and then carry on with their regular shit
It's like a Christian bedtime story with vague platitudes 'be persistent'. 'Some people get offended easily'. No they don't, you just think they do. Stop smacking your lips
So what was Einstein's biggest regret? The atomic bomb....which he didn't work on? And if so, how did his persistence lead to that? I must have missed something......
TO CLEAR UP POSSIBLE CONFUSION:
When Einstein said he wouldn't have lifted a finger, he didn't mean that he agreed with the bomb dropping. What he meant say that if he knew The Axis wasn't going to succeed in creating the bomb he wouldn't have encouraged The Allies to create it.
Just the way Mr. Bodanis worded it made it a little ambiguous.
KKR im pretty sure everyone got that misconception including me, when that story was told, our teacher told it to us and thats what we all thought.
BULLSHIT. WHAT HE MEANT WAS CLEAR. HE REGRETTED HAVING ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE BOMB IN THE FIRST PLACE. YOU ARE JUST JUSTIFYING THE BOMB DROP
Thank you for saying this. I was so confused.
Being extraordinarily driven is what genius is though.
Its not about being genuinely intelligent but being able to see things in a new light.

i think he had both, that what makes him a fucking god of physics.

I didn't even notice the mouth sounds until the I read the comments....Now it's all I hear 😕😂
"Imigrants and their ideas... Get them out of here." - someone said.
"I don't pay taxes, I'm way smarter than that... Way smarter." - nobody did not say that.
I don't think anyone can speak for genius except the individuals blessed with it
Similarly, sometimes I think a genius can't understand the gap between themselves and most people
I think they have to put it down to persistence just to get past the loneliness of what being truly unique probably must be
In the end, "he wouldn't have lifted a finger." what does it mean?
his middle finger probably? thug life!! u kno!3
I think me meant that if he had known they were going to use the bomb, he wouldn't have done anything to stop it.
"To lift a finger" make the slightest effort to do something.
Einstein said this because of correlation between his work and A-bomb.
Good question. It could mean that he wouldn't have done anything to stop the bomb, but it could also mean that he wouldn't have worked for America in the war.
he clearly meant that Einstein would not have put any effort in assisting in making the a-bomb. nothing more, nothing less.
Grateful for Einstein and his genius .' If I would have known I wouldn't have lifted a fingure'. Thank you.
Einstein's dad died in 1902 thinking his son was a disappointment. Not sure why the biographer stated otherwise.
Kevin Romans good point
reaper557 did his dad explicitly say this or are you just being presumptuous
First, it is far from presumption to call the speaker out on saying, "In 1905...his father thought he was a genius...", given that is in the public record that Hermann Einstein died in October 1902.

Some great pieces of information there. Keep up the good work, guys.
His imagination was off the charts. Nobody can create it by just working hard.
He was also very likeable so that people could work with him; exchanging ideas and helping one another out.
Very validating as someone who has been called persistent in a tone of voice that implied displeasure... many times.
I completely disagree, Einstein was a genius of the highest order, right up there with Newton. His theory of relativity, was ground breaking. He was very modest, and preferred to credit others, than boast of his own accomplishments.

I think the full quote was "Had I known that the Germans would not succeed in producing an atomic bomb, I would have never lifted a finger."
Source? Or is that a joke?
"if I had known I wouldn't have lifted a finger" i didn't understand what he meant by that.

So Einstein had no choice but assist the US in making the bomb. He knew it'd be a terrible thing for humanity and once created, the threat of extinction would always loom large and dark on our heads.
Turns out, Germany wasn't even close to creating the bomb, they were experimenting with the wrong materials.
As Einstein got to know this, he said,
"If I had known, I wouldn't have lifted a finger."
aw man i really needed to watch this today. Just feels like I’m getting nowhere w job applications.
Man....that's stuff a lot of people don't know about Einstein......Great video
"I wouldn't have lifted a finger." to make the bomb? stop the dropping of the bomb? What is the last modifier in that sentence? does anyone know?
I also want to know!
Lets not lie. Yes he worked hard but his genius is why he is known. His theory of relativity is absolutely genius...
… and plagiarized from Hendrik Antoon Lorentz and Jules Henri Poincar .
Loved the story, wish you did more
the true ability of the genius is to work every waking hour untill you finaly reach your goal

Einstein was a genius. The persistence is nothing without the cognitive ability.
Persistence leads to increase in skills.
@@sunnysied713 not everyone tastes the joy of success from persistence
So they conclude that it's not possible
I didn't get the last part. Can someone explain?
“Nothing in the world will take the place of persistence. Talent will not. The world is full of unsuccessful people with talent. Education will not. The world is full of educated derelicts.

"If I had known i wouldnt have lifted a finger".It was said at the end of the video.I didnt get quite get its meaning. Can someone explain it please?
More videos like this please

Is genius really distillate of persistence ? I would say it is a component of genius.
So Einstein was a dead beat dad ..

he was smarter than other people tho. it was passion + intelligence and a healthy diligent life
1:20 'it might be the sermon of the mount by matthew...'. Probably not the best example. Isnt it that Einstein was a brought up secular jew? There is some debate on how much he believed in a deity, but putting Christian doctrine on him is quite a thing, wouldnt you think. Or are you just talking 'Christian to Christian'?
Yeah, that also sounded odd and unnecessary to me.
If I opened the book of the Universe and saw the sermon on the mount, I would know I had the wrong book.
Isn't it just super sad that someone like Einstein didn't have money ?
I used to build tall card castles. Does that mean I'm a genius?
You're persistent
I live historians. The hidden perspective they give on mainstream history is really eye-opening.
And sometimes he forgot to cite other's work... let's be honest :)
The mathematician that solve his field equations in weeks was a genius. He did not believe what Bohr was trying to say (Quantum mechanics).
Einstein once wrote a little girl is IQ was about 145, which is way above average. I do not believe in IQ over 160 anymore. A psychologist once told me their own IQ test don't go over 160. My mother had her IQ test tested twice when she entered University, because they thought the first time might be wrong. It was in the same numbers around 145. She learn to read and write by age 3 by looking at her older sisters do their homework, but she is not that good in science.

SO IQ test say something about a persons intelligence, but not about all the smart people out there. One thing is certain Einstein was very smart and I suggest you all do like me and take it with a grain of salt when you hear someone say their IQ is over 160.
As long as I know, IQ is calculated by measuring the score of the person compared to the average person of his age. For instance, if a 9 years old kid score 20 correctly while the average kid of her age only scores about 10, her IQ is 200. What you need to notice is that she is NOT smarter than a 30 years old adult who scores 40 and gets an IQ of only 100. It just means that she is mentally more advanced than her peers and that also means that you do NOT get dumber when you score lower in IQ test as you grow up. You just get "relatively" dumber in that case. Also, I agree that IQ only measures 3 out of 8 or 9 intelligence (depend on what sources you have). The thing is that intelligence is a very abstract concept and it can be really tricky to be "measured".
Maybe dude? I dunno. What I mean is that I am no expert. I still trust the psychologist I spoke with. It makes people look so smart giving those high numbers. But your explanation also makes sense. If you have a standardized test you should not need to take into account the average, but only the difference from the mean (score).
It is not the weapon that kills, it is the person.
Einstein took some magic mushrooms 🍄 and came up with some crazy fucking theories.
Excellent
Einstein had a very hot wife... what?
BatDude27 maybe she had a brain fetish
+BatDude27 Was she a zombie?
and SHE couldn't get time to get in on his work? maybe he coulda pitched in with some a tha PARENT work
@@sidepin7458 She had the same degree as him according to the person in the video.
@@nichoudha He also loved sex.
A better world is stubbornness
Take it as positive
he have high vision ,and is enough to be Genius... for all respect for hem .
Gertingen University? (3:08) The subtitle translation is wrong (bad phonetics?). It should read Göttingen or Goettingen...
The university that burned Einstein's books makes me think of UC Berkeley today.
what have they done?
Someone has those books, they burned it so the masses couldn’t learn from them
This was just a simple story about Einstein but I kind of liked it! :)
Einstein received Nobel prize for his photo voltic effect not for his theory on 'special relativity'.
I think you need to listen again.
3:48 - a lesson for today
genius calms from QUALMS we are just his friends or tools
I should think their was a degree of genius?
His statue at Frankfurt Airport was vandalized I wonder if it will be restored
whats the name of the german university?
He did what he had to do. ❤🇺🇸
the last quote would be enough to classify him as a national security threat.
Kinda did a time jump from obscurity to fame and fortune... Would've liked to know that part...
People commenting in here wont ever become Einstein or even close to him , they just here to take some motivation for a day and then carry on with their regular shit
This guy smacks his lips more than my fat aunt eating hot cheetos
For reallllllllll I was looking for this comment. Yuck
Thats really disrespectful dude. I think thats how he is , I don't think hes doing it on purpose
What was the message in this video?
his genius allowed him to persist and advance.
I'm sorry I'm so distracted by his mouth sounds I can't concentrate on the content
It's called smacking- like when you eat with your mouth open.lol
SAME!!! ..i just couldn't continue the video!
me too lol its annoying
I tried not to look and just listening and forget as mush as I could to focus on the story but I couldn't. I wanted to know the story but hey.
adhd?
"If I had known I wouldn't have lifted a finger"
I will never read the comments section again. Like wtf is happening down here?
I found the voice of the speaker repulsive. It just sounded so...moist.
It's really annoying seeing his face muscles tensed. He looks anxious. And in turn I feel tensed watching him.
Albert also had one of the biggest brains as well
holy shit it was Einstein that brought that great power into the world
Einstein! ❤️
For those who aren't gifted in speed listening, 0.75 speed should help.
3:07 Gurtengeim?! Wtf that's no university I've ever heard of
If you can't pronounce a foreign word, just don't.
jeez, ya take a nap and they drop the bomb.
Very interesting video.. but i just couldn't continue through to the end because of his mouth smacking sounds!
gravity is plausible by retaining energy in a constancy..
Those who trust their intelligence to be better score less well on average. Efforts are rewarded.
Einstein’s high intellect was fueled by an extraordinarily large corpus colasum and his persistence was fueled by Asperger Syndrome.
It's like a Christian bedtime story with vague platitudes 'be persistent'. 'Some people get offended easily'. No they don't, you just think they do. Stop smacking your lips
So what was Einstein's biggest regret? The atomic bomb....which he didn't work on? And if so, how did his persistence lead to that? I must have missed something......
Comments are soo bad , they cured my cancer
Doesnt matter, his talent which contributed in nuclear physics is a great one. You dont have to be genius in everything, thats greedy.
People burning Einstein's books is eerily reminding me of what feminism and SJW's are doing. This scares me.
His wife was his cousin
But not his first wife, the one mentioned in the video.
👋Jedna planéta od povedala napi sa vody aby si mohol lietať ďalej
Does he mean the university of Göttingen? The subtitles say gertingen?
