Honestly, when I happened to be at the Royal Society at a meeting a few years ago, I was particularly keen to meet, if at all possible, Keith of all people :D (and I did! And I was basically a bit star-struck)
I get the feeling that Keith is 100% ok with Benjamin Franklin helping to lead a huge rebellion against the British Crown, but will never forgive him for writing on his books.
The moment it was mentioned that Faraday borrowed a copper plate I imagined something fishy was going on, and of course it was not returned, and that amuses me. I wonder if whatever exeriment that plate ended up being involved in was recorded.
9:10 - Audible should totally make this happen. Seems like a good way for them to get some free advertising and make something positive happen. Film the process, a bit of discussion about the book, a great video or mini series.
I like how all these obscure facts are uncovered and publicized in these videos. I hope it reaches the wiki editors and gets added to wikipedia pages and shared to the world
I live not far from the Royal Society, I plan to visit and see the rest of scrapbook 131. Does anyone have any requests of things they'd like to see? I can upload the pics.
This was an amazing video. Thank you so much for sharing this, and for bringing Hank along for the ride! Every time I watch one of these videos, I can't help but daydream about one day working Keith... damn, but what a dream job that would be.
THIS CHANNEL IS SO UNDERRATED AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Brady all of your channels are so fucking good even the defunct ones. AMAZING PRODUCER OF EDUCATIONAL CONTENT
Another fabulous video. Keith is a legend in his own lifetime! Love you too Brady and Hank. Please invite prof Mike Merryfield in for a route around. Keep up the awesome work guys.
Keith is much like me, I truly detest defacement of books. Ugh! Especially these great books being put in this library for everyone's use, that is so unfortunate. I can understand doing such a thing to your own books, but to do such to the books you check out or borrow is just wrong.
I don't know, if anyone made a statue of Darwin on Galapagos, it wouldn't be complete without him giving a puzzled look at the Giant Tortoises. I like turtles. 🐢
The iconic representations of Darwin have a problem in common with the ones of Einstein: the young man who made the revolutionary breakthroughs isn't represented. The very best likeness of Darwin is a pencil sketch done by George Richmond in 1839 and is little known. It's now in the Cambridge University Library. Richmond's 1840 paintings are well known but have nowhere near the fine detail of this sketch. One really gets a feel for the man, the personality. *This* is who made the breakthrough just 2 years before (as recorded in the famous p 36 of Notebook B), and it was only in 1839 that he felt he'd properly worked out "a theory by which to work." I was fortunate enough to see this in the Manuscripts Room at the Cambridge University Library. The CUL has this online but with a low pixel count. Findable using "CUL Richmond sketch of Darwin 1839". Should be the first result. I think "Mr Objectivity" could get a look at it.
I came for Darvin and found Faraday. but i can imagine what Farady did to the copper plate, he was like what happen if I pass high current through the copper plate.(turns switch on) "BOOM" :( Melted copper chunk
Isaac - is it pronounced eye-zek or eye-zac? In America I hear it mostly as eyezek with no break between the syllables, but when I hear British people say Sir Isaac Newton they seem to say "Sir eye·zak Newton" or "eyes·ack" enunciating each syllable separately, which seems little more grandiose. Is it a Newton specific thing?
Current best practice is to not wear gloves when you need to turn pages in old books. Cotton gloves don't give you enough sensation to know when you are about to rip the page, and rubber or synthetic gloves cause your hands to sweat too much. It's now recommended to just wash and thoroughly dry your hands before handling paper artifacts, but different museums have different guidelines.
Alright I gotta ask ... at the end is that a friendly jab at the Americans? Is that like how we would say y'all just sit around and drink tea and bow to the queen? Or is there something of substance there - do UK people (or maybe just Keith) think Americans are rude and don't pay attention to rules?
Not british, but I think it's a friendly jab at America although it has to be said that there is a general sentiment outside of America that a lot of Americans are arrogant, which a rules-aren't-for-me-attitude does kind of imply.
An American, an australian and a british walk into the royal society ...
A Welshman, at that!
Was Darwin himself an Englishman?? Welsh ? Scottish? Irish?? ....
I would totally listen to Kieth read audio books.
For 22 seconds, and then fall into a gentle and restorative sleep.
Hank Green got to meet Keith? What an honour for him.
Right!?

@@hankschannel gunna say it. Your life is not going to get any more cool than that.
I get the feeling that Keith is 100% ok with Benjamin Franklin helping to lead a huge rebellion against the British Crown, but will never forgive him for writing on his books.
Marginalia is cool.
this video is great for several reasons, 1. good art and science 2. good fun 3. Keith's SICK BURN at the end
We can’t control Keith. He’s a law unto himself.
I know that this is one of your smaller channels but by far my favourite. I love seeing bits of this immense collection with Keith. Keep it up Brady.
Thanks for supporting it with your time and kind comment. - Brady
"Benjamin Franklin did, but he's an American" - ROFL AND Keith should do book narration for these. He's so good.
He is so brutal
That understated caustic British wit 😁
He looks really upset by Benjamin Franklin lol
Also on the signatory list is William Whewell, who apparently introduced the words "scientist" and "ion", and died in a fall from his horse.
The moment it was mentioned that Faraday borrowed a copper plate I imagined something fishy was going on, and of course it was not returned, and that amuses me.
I wonder if whatever exeriment that plate ended up being involved in was recorded.
His estate can expect a pretty hefty overdue fee.
@@smaakjeks 😂
Why is this picture not his official portrait on Wikipedia? We need to make this happen!
The photo, painting and bust in this video are all on Darwin's Wikipedia page.

"He knows exactly why... why would I think he wouldn't know!" ... That's Keith! xD
Listening to Hank Green speak so softly and slowly is a weird experience. I'm way too used to his upbeat mannerisms.
Has Journey to the Microcosmos made you any more familiar with the experience?
This time on Keith is brutal comes the insult of America
I love the way they keep giving internet analogies to him.
Watching Keith repeatedly mispronounce Audubon's name, an American, is justice.
@@WhatAboutTheBee if you say so
+Alistair
Vicious.
I mean if it's true, would you really call it an insult?
Keith's jab at Americans. Gold.
Omg you got Hank Green to come for a video! That's great! :D
He was very generous with his time. It was a busy day for him.
To think: There were few enough photographs of you that you could easily identify the *ONE* that you liked the best! 😆
The good old days.
practices of past librarians seem kinda interesting..
Brady is a great co-host
Thanks Tim.
It might be a small detail - but I love the way you highlight the names in the books. Subtle but so efficient.
And, of course, the content is great.
It's a small detail but I love how you spelled 'subtle'.
@@meerkatnip892 Comment updated. Thanks for actually reading my comment (-:
Holy shit, I would be freaking out in front of all this. I love the idea of the "search history" aspect of these recordings.
Hank seems like Brady's only competition when it comes to volume of youtube stuff.
Have you ears about Simon Whistler?
I like how all these obscure facts are uncovered and publicized in these videos. I hope it reaches the wiki editors and gets added to wikipedia pages and shared to the world
I laughed at Keith's dig on Benjamin Franklin at the very end!
Hank has indeed shown up on Objectivity as the prophecies have fortold... nice
The title of Hanks' book is beautiful, I want to read it now
Two of my favourite UA-camrs in the same video! Hank and Keith are the best :)
I live not far from the Royal Society, I plan to visit and see the rest of scrapbook 131. Does anyone have any requests of things they'd like to see? I can upload the pics.
Julia Margaret Cameron has tagged you in a photo.
Charles Darwin likes this post.
I love how wholesome objectivity is
Keith earned the respect of everyone in Shropshire for knowing how to pronounce Shrewsbury correctly
So when are we getting the Keith audiobook
Very interesting vid. And siiiiick burn from Keith. Ouch
What? The Moroccan ambassador? So much pride for my fatherland!
This was lovely. Thank you.
This was an amazing video. Thank you so much for sharing this, and for bringing Hank along for the ride! Every time I watch one of these videos, I can't help but daydream about one day working Keith... damn, but what a dream job that would be.
You never know when the Royal Society might be hiring. ;)
@@ObjectivityVideos will try to keep that in mind... thanks for the encouragement!

I love how the one host has gloves on, but the curator is just touching everything with his bare hands.
Another fabulous video. Keith is a legend in his own lifetime! Love you too Brady and Hank.
Please invite prof Mike Merryfield in for a route around. Keep up the awesome work guys.
Jaaaa, Keith needs to do an audiobook!!
Speak with his agent. ;)
Thanks for this delightful series.
Thanks for watching it.
Excellent video as always !
Wow! This was really cool! Also, always love to see Hank!
I already watched this as soon as it came out, but was very happy to watch it again when I saw it recommend just now x)
I'd love to know the last book he borrowed there. Could give a sense of what he was working on.
good stuff, thanks guys :D
Objectivity is so nice.
“unsubscribed”......LOL
is Keith ever gonna retire or is it a position for life?
Keith is a god
No. Keith exists!

Two of my favourite youtubers in one video. Nice! :)
keith and the guest?
Would see Brady and Hank as youtubers. Keith is a legend in his own right.
CaraPlay I know, right! And Hank Green too!!
Yes, Keith and Brady.
Keith and Michael Faraday
I don't know, if anyone made a statue of Darwin on Galapagos, it wouldn't be complete without him giving a puzzled look at the Giant Tortoises. I like turtles. 🐢
0:43
In sync
Is it me, or do they both look similar to each other too
Keith and Hank are essentially the same person in both appearance and mannerisms.
Hank mothafookin Green!!!
Those objects are so exciting!

Excellent. Notifications on too I hope. 🔔
Excellent!
I am quite amazed that Keith isn’t wearing gloves when touching all these important books.

Was dr. Livingstone a member of the Royal Society?
It belongs in a museum!
I find it interesting that Keith does not wear gloves when handling these old books.

Thanks for info. That makes a lot of sense.
I loved this one, as I did all the prior episodes. However as an american I particularly enjoyed the last line. It's fair enough! Wink.
a crossover between the 2 people who have multiple channels on youtube i watch!
Hope you enjoyed it. It was fun to film.
Cool objects, and nice to see that dude not talking a mile a minute for once.
That was fun. And it was a great photograph.
But who's the guy in the green shirt?
Audubon: Professional Emo Scientist
So, Faraday was a bit of a tea leaf!
This is so cool
Yay Hank! :-)
I love this videos and Hank Green was a cool guest. Although I think we've seen Darwin a lot on Objectivity.
Not as much as Newton. :)
That’s David Letterman...
White gloves of Destiny with Hank Green!?
Good idea.
So I was right , it was brady

Tasking the piss is a sign of affection. Usually.
As an American, I'd say there are, unfortunately, a large number of us who are rude and don't pay attention to the rules.
Haaaaaaaaaank!!
YOOOOOOOOOOO
First?
At the instant I write this.....LAST!!!
I don't like the guest . He is annoying
Sadly a low for the channel. No need for the hipsters.
