Holden's videos are great. His manor of presentation is captivating. I love his statement about cleaving the crystal and calling it a "stunt". This was done I believe to identify with the audience who at the time used the word often. His classes would have been a treat to attend. Lab presentations that aided the understanding of the subject are outstanding. I'm now searching for his videos. Thanks for your thoughtful selections of fabulous lectures.
My Grandfather (1901-1985) at the kitchen table. They're so close, you can see his brain working with his facial expressions. Same and similar mannerisms and colloquialisms. "Granite's a good example, here's a hunk of it." You can tell when they rolled credits, he fired up a Viceroy.
I think the bubble experiment should be conducted in a vacuum... Did he establish a growth rate for alum? I witnessed symmetric exponential growth... Temperature is a factor.
I'm an engineer with a great passion for science. Videos and instructors like these are incredibile. Totally on another level.

Whew!!! Some list!
I don't know what I expected when I clicked this video. IT's exactly what it said it would be. Thumbs up for no clickbait.
Not surprisingly, this documentary is a gem.
Not afraid to say I don't know what an atom is! I can only tell you where they are and how they are arranged....
This is science!
Captivating and brilliant. Thank you!
Fabulous! Keep uploading such extraordinary experiments.
A wonderful lecture.
This is spectacular. Thank you!
Mind blown.
I found gem in the shape of this video.🤗

Terrific teacher; accurate, authentic and clear. Love this film.
@@herbyeates9718 My 4th viewing and will probably do it again.
@@godfreecharlie Any idea what this Salau stuff is? I can't find any reference of it.
@@wes7715 the bottle he held up spelled it salub
@@wes7715 salol, phenyl salicilate, a chemical compound that crystallizes very fast
Quality!
Amazing!!!
Where are these film notes
Currently, there's a transcript if you scroll down a bit after clicking for the description.
Can't vouch for it's accuracy, however.
I was in his son's class at ksu
I love it

Some expert, didn't once mention crystals' healing and protective powers. /S
