Feynman is one of those man who I felt have really enjoyed their life.
He really loved his job, even when he was terminally ill with cancer, he was key member in Challenger disaster team.
Yeah.... It was sad that he finally got permission to enter Tuva the day after he died...
@@bubblezovlove7213 It was the sadness of audiences but not the sadness of him. He enjoyed his life till the last day.
Very True!👍
yes, me too. i am theoretical physicist.
So much excitement in his voice as he talks, amazing.
passion.

In a way the remarkable thing is that he isn't just a super-smart genius, but this gives an impression of a different sort of mind, who *does* find a lot of it baffling and bizarre... which maybe is what contributes to his being so good at explaining, because he needs an explanation that satisfies *himself* as well
The best way to understand something is to break it down into the most simplest way of thinking or analogy. Its how I like to view the world. Its crazy how these supposed geniuses are just normal guys who just love what they do. We can all be geniuses. Its the will were missing.
It does take a lot of hard work, and willingness to accept that things are not as you initially perceive them. I guess that is imagination, which Feynman had in abundance. He also is very honest about what he understands and what he doesn't understand, which is a kind of scientific humility. He recognized where we are deluding ourselves about 'understanding' something. And so he knew what was a worthwhile question to ask or problem to solve.
Well he is a genius. He won a Pulitzer Prize. I think that’s you projecting onto him when he’s just acting humble. He’s trying to communicate here. If he wanted to he could break into nothing but jargon and big words.
Happy Birthday Dr Feynman
"...but I really can't do a good job..ANY job of explaining ____________ in terms of something else that you're more familiar with because I don't understand it in terms of anything else that you're more familiar with."
Is an extremely important quote that has particular importance these days.
"I think nature's imagination is so much greater than mans, she's never gonna let us relax." - Feynman
This is true
We are the Mind of the World; person[ification]s of its own Nature.
@kuldeep It is ,"he who cause to become" you are describing. Jehovah is the alpha and the omega. The beginning and the end. Deuteronomy 10:14 Exodus 6:3
"The inconcievable nature of nature."
Those could be the words of someone who has just experienced a DMT trip.
It has crossed my mind after coming out of a DMT trip: “Did I just see consciousness at the subatomic level?”……. Probably not!
How lucky are those who had him as dad, a teacher, a mate. He makes learning so exciting and full of enthusiasm and so easy and fun. In total awe and admiration 💖
''so it's stored Sun, that's coming out when you burn it''
I think that this interview is stored Sun through Richard's life.
Can you feel the heat of passion for knowledge he's radiating? Such an amazing human he was!
Are you a real person
no thats his point everything is stored sun!!!!
Yeah, pretty much.
@@bimsaragamage5996 Is that a real question
I like to imagine there's a nine year old kid somewhere watching this who will fall in love with science, become a physicist and inspire his daughter to resolve cold fusion, saving mankind.
I really hope that happens. But for every smart person like that, there will be 100 idiots believing in Q-Anon and Trump Lies.
So it takes two whole generations even in your imagination? :=(
The thinking now is that it may be impossible. Atoms don't give up their energy willingly and so easily. ua-cam.com/video/FrUWoywZRt8/v-deo.html

watched it 11 years ago , only became a physics teacher tho ...
I once had my own Feynman moment as I was making tea and suddenly realized that the movement of the water boiling on the stove was the movement of water going through a dam and transferred over miles and miles through wires - blew my mind
When he got passionate and smile, I see Robin Williams. Such a giant.
His movement when he explains something shows the amount of pleasure he get! There should be an emoji which can illustrate his smile, or an sticker should be there 😊
That bit about two human beings thinking about same thing but in different manners on the fundamental level, is, one of the most fascinating assertion I have heard in my entire life. And the reasoning was so well articulated even a kid from a high school could understand the underlaying assertion.
Everytime he smiles, i smile :)
What a brilliant wonderful man! It's a delight listening to him.
The amount of passion he speaks is unbelievable! I finished the whole video with an inexplicable smile on my face :)
Me too
Brilliant, I've always wanted to see the full version of this having seen little clips here and there, cheers for posting mate.
Thank you very much for sharing this wonderful interview with one of the best physicists of the 21st century 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Excellent quality 👌🏼
I love the way he thinks, and therefore the way he's able to explain the world around us. Brilliant.
I had never heard of Richard Feynman when I read his book."Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!"
And yet from the very outset, I felt like I was walking through the mind of a consummate genius.
This man explain you things and teach you how to explain them to other people.
Authentic genius.
Wow! Fantastic, I want to share it with every curious mind.
The 1 hour didn't felt anything. Just drowned in his smile and words. Wish if he would be my teacher...
Wow man, fantastic -- thanks for the upload! Feynman has a way of presenting science for everyone to enjoy. You can see it in his face. This guy is authentic as they come and second to none. I love you, man!
He's talking/explaining 'magic' with 'non-magic' in the most interesting and mysterious ways all the meanwhile being so enthusiastic about it, makes you wonder about the charges in this man trying to 'smooth' out to us, to 'cancel' out, to find an outlet and propagate, his 'jiggling' making us 'jiggle' ;) He was not trying to obscure, he was simply trying to enlighten.
This man was full of light that still propagates among us to this time.
What a treat to watch Feynman! Thanks you for posting this wonderful series!
His ability to translate such complex yet fundamental properties into examples and definitions that are understandable to the everyday person is so special, which I feel is a missing part of science; the idea that although great things and ideas are there or are known they are still not common knowledge or common belief due to the fact that they cannot be understood by most
Genius, you have the ability to explain complicated things in a simple entertaining way. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
You are a champion for putting this up. Thank you so much. This is Feynman at his best.
55:04 "...I was an ordinary person who studied hard". I love the way he says this.
This honestly feels like such a safe place. I love this man what an icon.
THIS!
If only we can all grow up without letting go of the childlike passion and curiosity. Richard Feynman was truly one of a kind.
this guy 3 years later will use his explanation of how rubber loses elasticity in cold to introduce in the challenger explosion investigation.
He really pissed off a lot of higher ups at NASA, but he was telling the dirty truth
I noticed this phenomenon while figuring out why/how my hot tub was leaking. It leaked less when the temperature rose, because the source of the leak was around a rubber gasket. At least that makes sense to me.
@@tommitchell4570 Yeah they didn't see as they should be critised at all and the little poeple should be blamed. Feynman said Not a chance ! If you want my name on this investigation I will put reality in the driving seat and nothing else. All else is just madness and is a big part of what caused this. (Or similar words to that effect anyway)
@@tommitchell4570 the higher ups at NASA were morons at the time.
Thanks for the upload - Quality is fine, man!
lmfao, i think no one is getting it loool
Literally mind blowing!
Thank you, Christopher. Always sharing for the betterment of us all your wonderful work. ❤️
Feynman's observations of how individuals must mentally form unique images for understanding, requiring translations to facilitate conversation was profound. I think this is what let's some people deal with great complexities as if they were trivial. I wish I could have met this great man.
Great post Chris, we are lucky to have a full production of this brilliant man speaking
i think this is at least the 10th time i am watching this doc, with Feynman it is so much fun imagining. love it.
55:55 best thing I have ever heard about subjective thought and our internal ways of dealing and grasping the world around us
thank you for posting it! love from germany
Thank you for this...
Best educator, _ever._
Finally！Great videos. Thanks a lot.
True scientist and educator at work,, he talks like poetry,,,
What blows me away is how good mathematics is at describing how things interact with each other. Things, that are so tiny they can't be seen, can be subjected to a force, and their response accurately predicted. QED for example.
“I think nature’s imagination is so much greater than man’s, that she’s never gonna let us relax.”
Yooo, man you’re golden for posting this!!
Just amazing and really fun to watch ! Thanks
the worlds needs more people & teachers like him
When he asked about magnets 🧲 and said that it’s a perfectly reasonable question. Then instantaneously Feynmen replied, ofc it’s a perfectly reasonable question, it’s an excellent question.
An excellent question which, after some awkward epistemological dissembling, he finally admits he has no answer to.
He answered how magnets work many times throughout the whole interview. In this instance, the question was “why do magnets feel like...” and he tangentially went on to explain how the philosophy of “why” is such a difficult question.
@@michaelwells6075 He certainly has an answer, but he can't explain quantum field theory in 2 seconds to someone who isn't a physics phd
He mannaged to answer a question of ''why'', to then explain the ''how'', while answering that the ''why's'' don't help to understand Physics, Life and the Universe when you are not versed on things that requires deep and strong basic knowledge to even start to make a question about.
@@michaelwells6075 he knew perfectly well how to answer that basic question...he was using it as an example to dig into the ultimate " why to everything " and explain that they're connected in a chain block ..pealing it layer by layer..you end up on bottom of one particular definition which happens to be the top layer of another one...I am sorry but you made it sound like one of the greatest minds was trying to steer out of a very basic question..
Thanks for posting this..
Physics and ultimate causation is important- but in most cases a simple story is sufficient. I am saying this while listening to to the great Mr. Feynman. So- even if we can know more and more and more- ultimate cause and effect will Not ever be known- maybe in the realm of philosophy but not even then. If such was “known”, there would be no field of study anymore and people could just go to sleep knowing everything is solved and there are no more questions. To me- it’s these constant questions which gets me going! We search for answers but also hope the questions never end.
NICE, been looking forward to this
The greatest teacher I never had
optional Chinese subtitles... far out Man... you think of everything Mr Sykes... thanks
謝謝🙏平安✌️
it's very difficult to learn the technical words in conversational exchange between people... unless you are talking to someone about it... somehow quarks and muons just don't come up very often in most conversations...
夸克
but I asked Ms Google... the ancient Chinese word for quark... pronounced... kuaké
✌️
ok... I would like to make a couple comments... along the way... this is probably the 4th or 5th viewing of this conversation with Dr Feynman... a good teacher gets us to think about the subject.. and... I've been thinking.. and working in my little lab here in the Sierra Estrella in Arizona..
jiggling atoms and heat spreading from hot to cold... like pressure.. moves from higher pressure to lower pressure... a la Max Planck circa 1900... in the German education system, college bound students and the hoi polloi who are expected to go to work are separated after the first 6 years... most kids learn a trade and go to work.. Max Planck and his cohorts in Gymnasio did not weld.. solder... or brase... physicists... even my dad.. who taught me how to solder plumbing and wire... failed to recognize the implications.. metals follow heat... move towards the heat, rather than away from it.. so.. here in the MountainSmith workshop and laboratory.. I figured out how to isolate platinum and palladium from volcanic ash by heating a low melting point metal in various flavors of volcanic ash.. with a flux of borax.. the platinum requires more heat.. palladium is done with a small propane torch like we use to solder plumbing.. platinum I have to get out the big guns... a plasma cutter from Amazon.. 135 dollars of heavy infrastructure to create the most useful metals in the World.. from volcanic ash... there are layers of it all over the Planet hundreds of meters deep... so it's not rare or hard to find.. unless you think it's all moving away from the heat... it isn't..
this is what happens when you have to pay for everything yourself
ok.. back to the good Dr Feynman
What a great personality and a great teacher. It's hard to believe that this guy was a math nerd when he was a kid.
Thanks for the good quality upload.
Seen it before a few times but in very pixelated bad quality vids.
Thanks for sharing
Thank's for this.
A joy to listen to his passion😍
The quality is amazing
Many thanks.
The way he talks is very unpretentious, he totally achieved his goal of making science more accessible and I think a big part of that was his personal affect/ way of talking about things.
Curiosity never gets old!
Thank you.
Somehow this makes me smile :D
Thank you the translator
Should be played in all schools.
British guy will NEVER ask about magnets again..lol 🤣
He rightly points out Maxwell was the daddy.
I love the part where he talks about why questions. It really shows his genius.
That is his worst response, ever. He totally messed that up.
@@schmetterling4477 how did he mess that up i thought it was great?
@Sand niggardly I think it is the other way around...
this guy is amazing
I love when this guy laughs.
Thank god for the chinese subtitles
For me the excitement and genuine pleasure he finds in knowing how things really are is a yardstick by which our children should be thought how to think, too often memorising answers is the way our children are thought how to think and that to me robs the child and us of so much pleasure ,we name sake the bird in every language but know fuckall about the bird himself, such a true statement, I wish I was thought how to think like that when I was young I probably wouldn't have the depression now
They don't make chairs like that anymore
They don’t make hair like that anymore
They don't make a guy like that anymore.
Not at Coscto lol
They don’t make interviews like that anymore
Yes, they're quite out of style
THIS is what understanding looks like
If you are bored with physics,this video is for you
Never seen this guy but because of this video I literally now understand
Check out his Tannu Tuva story... Hilarious
vincent anguoni I’m gonna jump on that right now
Thanks
Blitz Gordon mesmerising for sure
Any recommendations with talkers as enthusiastic as Feynman ?
@@King-balloon Feynman was in a league of his own so I've really not found anything like it. I really recommend his books on physics and stories from his life. And his lectures on QED and the lectures on Physics from Cornell Uni. Other Physics stuff that is fun is Brady Harans´s channel here on UA-cam Sixty Symbols
Blitz Gordon cheers I’ll defo check them out.
Bit gutted there isn’t any more feymans though
I wish I could understand the world better so I could have such enthusiasm for just thinking about that world like RF did. A thousand years of knowledge turning on a dime.
Now I know where did Sheldon Cooper got his laughing expression from :))) Awesome video. Thanks for uploading.
Sir Feynman is so curious
I like him a lot😀😀😀😀
He literally radiates energy like how
fantastico!
Amazing
The guy whose fraternity hazing was based around learning fun science problems seems to have turned out better than the guys I know whose fraternity hazing was based around shame and binge drinking
Too many young men have died from the fraternity hazing binge drinking!
yum, bookmarking this for later!
Jam Mogwai while listening to this... nice treat. Mogwai - Young Team
Exciting
The amazing Mr. Faynman
i love this!
everything i do needs to fulfill the fun factor.
when its fun, i love to do it!
大師的表面張力想像，讓我聯想到萬頭竄動的難民潮的最外圍難民始終擠不進去賑災核心的窘迫。
"The world is a dynamic mess of jiggling things." Wow. He was so good at explaining.
Awesome. Can you imagine inviting him to tea and feeding him wine. What an experience that would be?
8 dislikes are from people accidentally clicking random buttons
only 17,438 views.. what is wrong with this world ??
Wtf??
I adore him
It’s like training for imagination. It’s kinda fun.
A wonderful human
Wow!!
