@Niels Kloppenburg while I don't subscribe to the theory of flat-earthers, I do understand the premises they set forth.

out of all the comments i scrolled through this was the first one to make me laugh out loud mostly cause the way he describes things can convince me of almost anything
"Get down this is a robbery!" Vsauce: **starts slipping geodesically like moving sideways because of his natural tendency to follow through a straight line**
I really do miss these videos more than any other content that has stopped being produced by anyone. The shorts are good, but the way he would diverge topics was always something I loved.
@macaco maco they're talking about his newest videos, not this one. Although I did get the free trial, watched all of them and they were pretty neat. But the videos "killed" his channel because he no longer uploads on it but instead makes infrequent appearances on DONG and at least I don't know what he's doing right now though someone else might.
This is not only an excellent description of Einstein’s 1914 paper on General Relativity, but it’s the only video description that I’ve ever seen directed at a lay-audience that didn’t suck. Most resort to analogies with balls on trampolines, or whirlpools, and completely mislead the audience.
It is amazing to me that more than a year after his last video that people are still posting comments literally every hour. Goes to show how much of a following he has.
The only reason people are commenting here is because this is the final non premium video... imagine a UA-cam channel let’s just say pewdiepie bcoz he has the most subs, if he just stopped uploading videos then people would come back to his last video is comment, keep in mind pewdiepie could have a ton of unlisted videos that were made after his last one but we wouldn’t be able to access them

Here's the thing tho, I don't even really like Mindfield. The big build up is always for some kind of experiment, but the Vsause I fell in love with just had crazy ways of linking disparate ideas together. Throwing budget at a show to make cool experiments just isn't Vsause. It's mindfield. The few episodes I've watched were relatively boring.
"Do things fall because they're being pushed of pulled? Or is it because of *time travel* ?" The way he connects all of the initial weird-sounding questions as the end of the video approaches is just genius. This man makes masterpiece after masterpiece, it's astonishing.
Same, although Michael has explained that he has plans for new Vsauce1 videos in the future: www.reddit.com/r/vsauce/comments/86a49b/can_anyone_tell_me_why_the_vsauce_videos_of/
Connor Jones Oh I have premium I just mean 2 things. One: most people don’t have premium and Two: he hasn’t uploaded a normal _Vsauce_ video in a while.
Time is literally just motion and that blows my mind sometimes. Like living is like taking a cross section of the motion of the universe and expiriencing it in a carbon based suit
I'm still amazed by the 'c' ... how does one calculate Speed of Light without even having state of the art equipment that we have as of today... and don't even start me on the Gravitational Waves theory.
And yet Tesla said he was a crackpot... so who do you trust... the engineer who invented our modern electrical grid and a whole bunch of other stuff us plebs aren't allowed to know about... or the fuzzy headed crackpot that never invented anything?
@@Sciurus tesla also believed the earth was covered by a firmament and had some pretty whacky spiritual and religious beliefs. I mean he was a great engineer who was also ahead of his time, but then again a lot of his ideas even involving electricity were and still are impossible.
“Everything is steered towards where time is slowest” - 24:50 That is the coolest explanation for “gravity”, the Non-force-force. This video was awesome!
This means that if everything in the universe falls towards a point (see "how the earth moves": another amazing vsauce vid) then time or what it actually is Just motion will be moving at its slowest but with all the mass of our collective universe in one spot. Could you imagine what the last blackhole would be like? Or whatever it would even be? These videos make me think bro.
@@sharimccauley6233 From this concept, I assume that in a fatal blackhole, time either stops or infinitely slows down, and in that situation, there is no mass slower than that level that would go "up" and push the other mass to a faster time, mass either keeps going "down" or stops moving at that point.
@@EziooAuditore Now, down, as Michael described, is just the curvature of Space-time. Imagine a somewhat stretchy sheet, not fix it over a circle and put a heavy ball in the middle, you would see the sheet curving down from where the heavy ball is, in a somewhat similar fashion, Heavy things bend space-time. Things follow straight lines in space-time but as space time is curved, so is the apparent appearance of the straight line an object appears to us as Falling down. What we don't see is 'Time' also falling 'down', which is why it's 'slower'. It's all just referential really, time never slows down or speeds up, it just changes direction so and som
I've been getting drunk because some guys are threatening me. Just want to say thank you for still having this five year old video up, you are helping me get through some hard times right now :)
“Are we being pushed, or pulled?! Or...is it TIME TRAVEL...first, let’s turn the sun into a black hole.” I mean If your new here, well uhhhh this is about as *logical as it gets.*
I'm sure before this video, if you were asked what would happen if the sun became a black hole of the same mass, you would answer that the earth would get sucked in.
Alexander Clegg Kitty40 Judging someone not for their words nor for their actions, but for the things they are fans of... That seems wise and reasonnable ! So what, an opinion for a piece of media automaticly makes one less worthy respect ? Do you view Homestuck the second comming of Mein Kampf ?
Isn't this literally how one of the SCPs went? >On February 17, 2026, contrary to all astronomical models and understanding of both classical and quantum mechanics, the Sun suddenly collapses into a black hole despite not meeting commonly understood mass thresholds for triggering such an event. Despite the almost immediate cooling of Earth and all other planets in the Solar System to approximately -270 degrees Celsius and the elimination of all other forms of life, humans are unable to die, maintaining consciousness despite the lack of continuing biological functions and almost total cessation of molecular movement.
Does people believing in aliens or Bigfoot trigger you also? The reason you are so triggered is because how much effort has been put forth in making you believe you live on a spinning ball with curving water that now when you hear the truth then it makes you upset.

EntryLog - #047 We've just reached over 11 months without another Vsauce video. It's getting harsher each day; people giving up, subscribing-rates dropping, ad revenue almost gone.

To anyone who gets this message; Vsauce has abandoned us and we can't go on any further.

+Dread Man; Oh, you’re one of those electric-universe idiots. I am quite well aware Einstein fucked his cousin. However, Einstein’s theories are backed up by experimental evidence, ie gravitational waves, observation black holes, and such. In addition, your historic evidence, pointing to Tesla, who fell in love with a pigeon, is in fact incorrect. The first to propose the Plasma Cosmology was Hannes Alfven, and it minimizes the presence of gravity, which is backed up by the torsion ball experiment.
+Dread Man; You failed to properly counter my argument and I failed to properly counter yours. I vote that we end this on a draw, as it is clear we both have fundamentally different world views that are hard set into us, and arguing isn’t going to change that. In addition, we both have things we’d rather be doing than arguing. However, to counter your points: We have been disagreeing with Einstein from the start, that’s how we got Quantum Theory, Einstein’s work has been continually iterated on and many have tried and failed to refute his theories experimentally, Humanity has made more great leaps in the last century after Einstein than it did in the last five centuries before him, Tesla was born around 30 years before Einstein so they were not contemporaries, the entirety of your argument has been more “Fuck Einstein and his work” and “Tesla was the greatest human being” rather than any professional disproving of Einstein’s work, the reason humans haven’t yet evolved from where we were contemporary to Einstein is because it’s only been like a century, you and I have proven nothing beyond that both a Tesla and Einstein had some weird fetishes. Tesla was an Engineer, a good-ish person though a Social Darwinist, and Einstein was a scientist and a theoretician at that and married his first cousin. This in turn proves that they were not in the same categories, as Tesla was in the how and Einstein in the why. Your period is not final, and you have proven nothing. Nor have I. Neither of us have cited sources. Finally, I reiterate that neither of us will win this argument and it is for the best that we end it here, and call it a draw. Say you won if you want to, but end it. It is quite likely we both have other things we’d rather be doing. Now you can continue your argument, feeling rather than thinking as you do, but I shall have no part in it.

Okay, literally the whole "curvature of spacetime" idea made zero sense in my practical mind until this video. Seriously, that's awesome.
Exactly!! This video is actually so good
So true
And this is not even the whole answer either...
Michael could have gone further, explaining how in reality 22:36 the pencil that we see falling in the video is not actually falling at all... "only when the pencil hits the Earth" is true but hides something very important. Yes the pencil hits the Earth but in reality is the Earth that hits the pencil... Since the Earth is traveling through space and the pencil isn't!
And it isn't because there are no forces acting on it... 22:09 "every part of the pencil follows a straight line"
A straight line in this diagram means that the pencil is not moving in space - (hence the straight line) it's only moving in time (in time in the spacetime diagram (which is 4 dimensional btw..)).
Therefore that was a cool video but Michael lost the best opportunity to say these words "When you let something fall... It doesn't".

The big build up is always for some kind of experiment, but the Vsause I fell in love with just had crazy ways of linking disparate ideas together. Throwing budget at a show to make cool experiments just isn't Vsause. It's mindfield. The few episodes I've watched were relatively boring.
If school could have been as engaging as this, or teachers been as engaging as Michael, I would know more than I do now.
It's not too late to learn new things without school. I'm learning constantly and I'm 77.
When you are feeling down, just remember that earth is still attracted to you
If you're feeling down, but also when you are falling down
But what is down?

no cuz he would be forced to teach only what he is told to just like every other teacher

"Do things fall because they're being pushed of pulled? Or is it because of *time travel* ?"
The way he connects all of the initial weird-sounding questions as the end of the video approaches is just genius. This man makes masterpiece after masterpiece, it's astonishing.

thanks. I completely forgot about that mention in the middle of the video. This shows how well prepared his content is.

“Do things fall because they’re being pushed, or pulled? Or is it because of _time travel?_ ”
Those are two *wildly* separate options
Yeah pushing and pulling are so different smh

Congrats how’d it go?
michael: which way is down?
also michael 5 second in: TIME TRAVEL.

956, that dudde saying to remind him to not annoy vsauce intensifies
At the end it just makes you appreciate how much of a genius Einstein was for thinking of gravity this way.
I just wish I was as smart as Einstein
The man is remembered as a titan of science & physics for a reason, he was so far ahead of everyone else he's still pulling us along now.
I'm still amazed by the 'c' ... how does one calculate Speed of Light without even having state of the art equipment that we have as of today... and don't even start me on the Gravitational Waves theory.
And yet Tesla said he was a crackpot... so who do you trust... the engineer who invented our modern electrical grid and a whole bunch of other stuff us plebs aren't allowed to know about... or the fuzzy headed crackpot that never invented anything?
@@Sciurus tesla also believed the earth was covered by a firmament and had some pretty whacky spiritual and religious beliefs. I mean he was a great engineer who was also ahead of his time, but then again a lot of his ideas even involving electricity were and still are impossible.
Coming back to this video 6 years later and realizing how little of it I understood when I watched it back then.
“Everything is steered towards where time is slowest” - 24:50
That is the coolest explanation for “gravity”, the Non-force-force. This video was awesome!
This means that if everything in the universe falls towards a point (see "how the earth moves": another amazing vsauce vid) then time or what it actually is Just motion will be moving at its slowest but with all the mass of our collective universe in one spot. Could you imagine what the last blackhole would be like? Or whatever it would even be? These videos make me think bro.
@@sharimccauley6233 What you are describing is called a singularity for now. We can't seem to think beyond that.
@@sharimccauley6233 From this concept, I assume that in a fatal blackhole, time either stops or infinitely slows down, and in that situation, there is no mass slower than that level that would go "up" and push the other mass to a faster time, mass either keeps going "down" or stops moving at that point.
Why is time slower where "down" is though?
@@EziooAuditore Now, down, as Michael described, is just the curvature of Space-time. Imagine a somewhat stretchy sheet, not fix it over a circle and put a heavy ball in the middle, you would see the sheet curving down from where the heavy ball is, in a somewhat similar fashion, Heavy things bend space-time. Things follow straight lines in space-time but as space time is curved, so is the apparent appearance of the straight line an object appears to us as Falling down. What we don't see is 'Time' also falling 'down', which is why it's 'slower'. It's all just referential really, time never slows down or speeds up, it just changes direction so and som

Isn't this literally how one of the SCPs went?
>On February 17, 2026, contrary to all astronomical models and understanding of both classical and quantum mechanics, the Sun suddenly collapses into a black hole despite not meeting commonly understood mass thresholds for triggering such an event. Despite the almost immediate cooling of Earth and all other planets in the Solar System to approximately -270 degrees Celsius and the elimination of all other forms of life, humans are unable to die, maintaining consciousness despite the lack of continuing biological functions and almost total cessation of molecular movement.

We've just reached over 11 months without another Vsauce video. It's getting harsher each day; people giving up, subscribing-rates dropping, ad revenue almost gone. We never expected anything like this, we were never prepared for no Vsauce uploads of this long. We need Vsauce back. All other survival bunkers are lifeless and we're beginning to give up in here. To anyone who gets this message; Vsauce has abandoned us and we can't go on any further.

+Dread Man; Lawyer: This is Physics and Law, not Martial Arts. Don’t feel, think.
+Dread Man; Nerd: Nikola Tesla was an engineer. Real science, I assume, would be experimental science, which would mean Faraday.
+Dread Man; Oh, you’re one of those electric-universe idiots. I am quite well aware Einstein fucked his cousin. However, Einstein’s theories are backed up by experimental evidence, ie gravitational waves, observation black holes, and such. In addition, your historic evidence, pointing to Tesla, who fell in love with a pigeon, is in fact incorrect. The first to propose the Plasma Cosmology was Hannes Alfven, and it minimizes the presence of gravity, which is backed up by the torsion ball experiment.
+Dread Man; You failed to properly counter my argument and I failed to properly counter yours. I vote that we end this on a draw, as it is clear we both have fundamentally different world views that are hard set into us, and arguing isn’t going to change that. In addition, we both have things we’d rather be doing than arguing. However, to counter your points: We have been disagreeing with Einstein from the start, that’s how we got Quantum Theory, Einstein’s work has been continually iterated on and many have tried and failed to refute his theories experimentally, Humanity has made more great leaps in the last century after Einstein than it did in the last five centuries before him, Tesla was born around 30 years before Einstein so they were not contemporaries, the entirety of your argument has been more “Fuck Einstein and his work” and “Tesla was the greatest human being” rather than any professional disproving of Einstein’s work, the reason humans haven’t yet evolved from where we were contemporary to Einstein is because it’s only been like a century, you and I have proven nothing beyond that both a Tesla and Einstein had some weird fetishes. Tesla was an Engineer, a good-ish person though a Social Darwinist, and Einstein was a scientist and a theoretician at that and married his first cousin. This in turn proves that they were not in the same categories, as Tesla was in the how and Einstein in the why. Your period is not final, and you have proven nothing. Nor have I. Neither of us have cited sources. Finally, I reiterate that neither of us will win this argument and it is for the best that we end it here, and call it a draw. Say you won if you want to, but end it. It is quite likely we both have other things we’d rather be doing. Now you can continue your argument, feeling rather than thinking as you do, but I shall have no part in it.
