Merry Christmas to everyone! Thank you Royal Institution for repeating Prof. Faraday lecture on the candle, as it is a very bright presentation. Greetings, Anthony
Who doesn't know anything about candles those people in the audience didn't go to school, I hope they didn't pay to get in there to watch this. My wife said this is close to a nuclear reaction😂
I know I just started watching this and poking fun at it, play wonder if he's going to get into the modern candles with the glass and carbon candle wicks
Very poor camera work and editing. Not like RI lectures of old. Director and producers : please rewatch the shows from 20 years ago to see how it's done.
It did feel like some of the demo team and film crew were a little underprepared. Prof Ricketts was superb though. Also worth noting this is an RI in-house production rather than a big-bucks BBC Christmas Lecture.
I was writing the same, then I saw your perfect comment. The editing is done by someone that doesn't care about what is showed at RI....and that's a pity!
Used to watch this every year when I was a kid... Still feel a great nostalgia for the christmas lecture..
Merry Christmas to everyone!

Mommy said don't play with matches I'm going to burn the house down😢
For anyone who wants a different point of view...pls read Dr. Philip S. Callahan..."Tuning into Nature"
I was watching One video where the guy was making candles out of sugar, Burns super bright
candle light might work on a solar panel 🕯️🙇♂️
X-ray detector the same principle?
Rocket scientists. 😅
(I love hearing that British accent)
More Oxygen🎉
I think in Faradays times people were really impressed by this lecture but times have changed a little bit dont you think?
It's so easy to test water with copper II salts becoming blue, rather than dangerous and expensive sodium. OK for children it's more spectacular.
This is how children in the UK will learn what candles are after they're banned to prevent people being lit on fire in the subway.
It's the Tube over here

Look at their view count.
Its their own fault for pretending gender equity has anything to do with effective scientific progress

Very poor level of donation with your whinge
@@fra8156 The RI can't afford a dedicated production team because people like you spend too much time complaining about something you got for free
Take a break David
