A line that will always be with me said by Richard Feynman. The inconceivable nature of nature. I just can't help but get goose bumps to that. This man seriously inspires me. I have so many mental issues as well. But he, literally makes me want to learn about nature, imagine it, without caring too much for grades etc. I want to be like this man, not for the fame, but for the way he thinks, for the joy of it, the love of it. Imagination will be my tool now!
I recommend reading his autobiographical "Surely, You Must be Joking, Mr. Feynman" A wonderful book written by Dick Feynman. I promise you can hear him speaking when you read it.
THe thing is that sometimes study as directed by others can often be interesting and helpful too. Not putting down learning driven by personal curiosity, you understand, but the two can compliment each other and the result can be a richer result.
@DLPBurke No. DNA samples are different, so the "combo" would be kinda similar - due to the fact that the couple is the same -, but different in terms of the dimension you're asking about.
@Roffe192 Square (though I assume you mean cubic) planets can't occur naturally above a certain size. The gravity of the matter in the planet pulls everything towards the centre, creating a sphere. (Strictly it's not exactly a sphere since the rotation throws it out a small amount.) That's why you can have weird shape asteroids - because they are very small so the gravity isn't large enough to pull them into a sphere, but you can't get a cubic planet.
Interesting that he says the mountains are higher on the moon. The highest mountain, on the far side of the moon, was only recently discovered to be taller than Mt. Everest (or Mauna Kea) but that wasn't known at the time of this video.
@JoeBrenan The fundamental forces that we know of, gravity in particular, behave utterly different in quantum scales compared to larger scales - it's of course possible that our universe is just an atom in something larger, but that "something larger" would most likely not behave in any way we consider normal or predictable.
@TheSmackerlacker You might get that impression because in these interviews he talks about layman stuff. There were physicists who said they felt like children compared to him when he gave lectures about the hardcore physics like quantum and etc
@elfmotat good point. i'm not as familiar with susskind as i am witten & hawking. but i can't believe i forgot ed witten. someone else made a good point: most of the 'simple' (yet profound) discoveries have already been made. it's now harder to find a new discovery that isn't so subtle it takes years of higher education to grasp its importance.
@wilmslowforlife some people adore sports stars... some dig movie stars & some idolize rock & roll stars (i myself have a particular fondness for Jerry Garcia) the cats i study & revere are the ones with lovely ideas & a knack for communicating them in an engaging way. Feynam is at the top of the heap. he's like a cool uncle... when he tells a story, you can't help but listen & learn some fresh new insight about nature
I've never experienced a finer mind than Feynman. I think Feynman's genius supersedes Einstein and Newton's. His thirst for knowledge, along with his dominance of calculations and his alien like ability to completely revamp the known systems is unparallelled by any other human being.
I would say they're comparable in their own ways. I would also say that if you read a biography on Newton you'll realize that his thirst for knowledge might be nearly unparalleled. He would scout and scour for even the smallest bits of information no matter how unlikely they might be to gain anything from in his pursuit of understanding of whatever he was studying at the time. He was freakish in mental stature if there is anyone to say that about in the history of men. Imagine if he had actually slept well and ate well too. He barely slept and his diet was nonsense and he had a sweet tooth that seemed to dominate his palate. I suspect he might have gotten along with Feynman although he really only ever had one or two close "friends" in his life. One of which was a manipulator and lied to him for attention. Anyhow these men were each brilliant in their own right.
3:00 I remember suddenly realising at age 14 that the claim there were '100 billion' stars in our galaxy must have been an estimate since the time would take to 'count' them individually (through a telescope over successive nights etc) was - as Richard says - in the thousands of years, and we had only invented the telescope 300 years before. (And of course you 'estimate' that time proving that the figure could not be a count so must be an estimate) Neat, huh?
If it were extremely easy to know everything, you might not value it as much. The difficulty is there to make you stronger and more determined. Also the difficulty is to make you more SELF-AWARE. How can one know the universe if they don't know themselves first. What you care what other people think! (RP Feynman)
An interesting notion along those lines is the fact that every cell in your body is replaced over a given period of time... It could be that we entirely different people after those periods of cells changing. Perhaps we are tricked into believing we are one person by our memories, but we are really a new person as our cells are replaced.
@Vennificus really??? carl sagan smoked pot??? i didnt know this. i heard about feynman and him talking bout his experimenting. how much did sagan do that? i mean was he like a pothead? i LOVE both these guys im just curious about it.
@d3st88 i completely agree with you. Regarding ultimate beginnings, people always seem to say "Everything has to have a beginning & end..." Invariably my reply is something along the lines of, "you only feel that way because everything about you has a beginning & end. our minds aren't programmed to intuitively fathom "no beginning no end". .. i'm certainly no genius, but this is obvious even to me:)
The limitations of my brain make me so angry! Despite being the supposedly most intelligent species on this little ball, our little brains are still not ready to perceive as much as I want to. Being smart enough to recognize the mysticism of reality but being unable to grasp it fully is frustrating to me. I want to perceive and understand this strange situation we're all in. I'll keep trying though.
@element68 If you do your homework in addition to twistin js, you could meet a lot of guys like him. That's all smart people do different -- they read, and if reading does't answer their questions, they think about them. Do experiments. And not just to see what films sync up with which Pink Floyd records.
@ItsNotEvenSunny Allright, I may say some of the work that Hawking did with Penrose BEFORE getting sick and going right into fame was indeed wicked sick, and totally awesome.
There's so many that if you tried to name them, one a second, naming all the stars in our galaxy - I don't mean all the stars in the universe, just this galaxy here, it takes three thousand years. Yeah just think about that for a second.
2:43 .. i dont get it actually.. if you take bigger area of light and compress it to smaller area, almost like when you try to burn something with a Magnifying glass (you compress sunlight to a single, smaller spot).. doesnt it get brighter? But he says then we can see things in a weaker light... Maybe im too stupid.. telescopes probably work in a different way, right.. ?
"The basic idea is to collect lots of light to form a bright image inside the telescope, and then use something like a magnifying glass to magnify (enlarge) that bright image so that it takes up a lot of space on your retina." i still dont get the weaker/less light part
*****. To my understanding, your first idea was right. Concentrate the light into a brighter point. He says that using that method, we can see things that are weaker, (that have) less light.
@jimmyti9cer Carl sagan smoked weed every day since the sixties, and was a great activist toward the complete legalization of marijuana. See, The worst part about marijuana is that you're smoking it, not the chemicals in it. THC has an LD50 of 450 mg/kg, meaning it would take 1500 pounds of potent weed to kill a man from overdose, all in a very short time. Sagan loved it, and I can see why. Personally I don't need it, but I know people that do.
Takes life to understand physics. Creating a cycle. Naive to start stating where the start and end of a circle is. Either way I am hoping to studying Biophysics, best of both worlds. ;)
My love of Feynman is preventing me from writing a number of corrections. I love that the Federal Deficit of the Reagan administration sounds as mindblowing as the Obama administration
@enHanzable i myself have wonder'd, "where are the megageniuses of our age? i'm referring to thinkers who changed the way the world looks at itself -einstein, feynman, oppenheimer, tesla ,et al. it seems in this age of instant information & mass communication, we'd have a huge crop of megabrains asking the paradigm-shifting questions that blow the collective man's mind. kaku is charming enough on television, but is he a genius like John Nash or Von Neumann? probably not.
@ItsNotEvenSunny Albert Einstein used other people work to create his. Stephen Hawking's the Justin Bieber of science. Feynmann is one of the true humble scientists that really deserve to remain alive via being remembered forever.
I think so too, I actually made a short video on that idea, I hope you find it interesting? drive.google.com/file/d/11HZF3JSpxfPa1x4zWIm2BHVcpawOIJpY/view?usp=sharing
@jimmyti9cer I don't want to burst your bubble or anything, but I think most of the great physicists have used what is possibly the most egregious drug ever invented. Indeed, they probably took this drug (orally) almost every day of their adult lives! It makes you think.
@BlindingBlizzard LSD, Marijuana, and Ketamine. He only experimented though, Didn't want to do anything that would damage his brain. Carl sagan on the other hand would light one up.
"If every star [in our galaxy] dropped a one dollar bill on Earth during a year they might take care of the deficit that's suggested for the Budget of the U.S" Back when this was made, sure. Today, not even close :D
Language is important, the minute we start saying things that sound almost certain, we should be scared! It scares me when I do it, I hate doing it, and I will continually try to prevent myself from doing it. I want to understand what is, but I am not naive enough to think I can understand anything passed the restrictions of my biology whatever they maybe. Plus I am scared that you think science could accurately give you an understanding of things millions of years ago :/
That makes no sense, without life, how can you know there is physics? As you, and everyone else would not exist to know it. :/ Besides this is all trivial. As it is about understanding nature, we often forget the mass amount of interconnections between everything. Galaxy far away have some connect to you via various links. Thing of it like this. There are so many things, but image how many connections there are between these things. My mind explodes, but that is my physics of life. ;)
@wilmslowforlife i agree. a moron could learn something from this cat's scientific meanderings; he has such an engaging way of telling a story or describing a phenomenom. he's like a cool uncle
He barely hinted at the scale of the Universe, just the local stars and a suggestion of other galaxies was mentioned. To get an idea of the number of galaxies we can now see, look for 'Galaxy Zoo'. Thank God for atheists like Feynman and others so that the best questions can be answered without the need for any 'gods'!
That comment is wrong on so many meta-levels it'd take a week to explain it all. Here's a freebie. 90% of all science done to date was done by people of faith, mostly christians and jews but a great many of other faiths as well. Another ignorant person using every opportunity to spew his dogmatic agenda at people, without knowing a damn thing about a belief based purely on knowledge.
@d3st88 that's alright regarding the joke.. i'm not saying i believe in the existence of the typical christian version of God. I believe in the POSSIBILITY that there's some beautiful primordial creator god that "created" the cosmos via the big bang & who's language to humanity is expressed in mathematics & beautiful theories of physics & who's tool regarding us high-octane brains is evolution. in short, im hopeful agnostic
@zer0dahero Also, Obama wouldn't deny that "his" actions may have negatively affected us. They are fixing the problem to the best of their abilities. Atleast he isn't ignoring intel about possible terrorist attacks because he's too busy playing golf and declaring war on other countries without any basis.
@freedo333 Well, that amount of religion I can live with. I think that the human mind is bound to think that the universe had to begin somewhere, since our life, everything around us seems to have a beginning and an end, and it plays a very significant role in our everydays, so, while I'm not too scientifically literate, and I do not dare to compare my intellect to those physicists and other smart men and women, even they tend to look for a beginning, a birth to this cosmos.
100 billion stars and a deficit of 17 trillion :D You need 17 milky way sized galaxy's for that. But probably it would just create an enormous inflation.
A line that will always be with me said by Richard Feynman. The inconceivable nature of nature. I just can't help but get goose bumps to that. This man seriously inspires me.

same:)
I would genuinely pay my soul in exchange for having the opportunity of having Feynman as my teacher for 1 year! What a remarkable mind he has indeed!
I love listening to this guy because you can actually see he has a genuine PASSION for what he's talking about. It's hard to find that.
He makes me smile while watching him talk, thats a wonderful thing :)
"...or you get a bit nutty." HAHAHA!! The way he said it, and his laugh along with it, and that it was him making the statement. HAHAHA!!
funny egg dog
now LAUGH
hahaha :O
That grin and chuckle. He's like a benevolent grandad talking to his grandkids
I totally agree
I love just how happy he gets thinking about and discussing all the little details in life.
"You can sort of stand in the middle and enjoy everything both ways"... Man that just hit me like a sledge hammer by some reason.
I just can't stop smiling whilst I watch Feynman.
I confirm this =) I was reading his books as a kid, and I was surprised that his voice does sound like I would have imagined it.
I recommend reading his autobiographical "Surely, You Must be Joking, Mr. Feynman" A wonderful book written by Dick Feynman. I promise you can hear him speaking when you read it.
WHERE IS PART TWO OF THIS!!
Man, what a cliffhanger! I was glued to my seat, keep going, keep going...!
Here's a playlist. ua-cam.com/play/PL2DB73589969D47AB.html
THe thing is that sometimes study as directed by others can often be interesting and helpful too. Not putting down learning driven by personal curiosity, you understand, but the two can compliment each other and the result can be a richer result.
@DLPBurke No.
DNA samples are different, so the "combo" would be kinda similar - due to the fact that the couple is the same -, but different in terms of the dimension you're asking about.
"The number of stars we see at night is about 5,000" Well here in California I see like 2 a night.
@Roffe192 Square (though I assume you mean cubic) planets can't occur naturally above a certain size. The gravity of the matter in the planet pulls everything towards the centre, creating a sphere. (Strictly it's not exactly a sphere since the rotation throws it out a small amount.)
That's why you can have weird shape asteroids - because they are very small so the gravity isn't large enough to pull them into a sphere, but you can't get a cubic planet.
cant stop smiling wile watching this
love the way he looks at thing
Interesting that he says the mountains are higher on the moon.
The highest mountain, on the far side of the moon, was only recently discovered to be taller than Mt. Everest (or Mauna Kea) but that wasn't known at the time of this video.
highest or tallest?
I suspect he was thinking about Mars.
Mauna Kea is not tallest mountain. Its part is under water.
Kea wont be tallest mountain on earth untill ocean dries.
@JoeBrenan The fundamental forces that we know of, gravity in particular, behave utterly different in quantum scales compared to larger scales - it's of course possible that our universe is just an atom in something larger, but that "something larger" would most likely not behave in any way we consider normal or predictable.

mannn, hes imagination is so real, that u can actually feel it......
his biography 'Genius' by James Gleick is also a wonderful read.

is it easier or more accurate for us to imagine larger than life things or tiny things?
@d3st88 i completely agree with you. Regarding ultimate beginnings, people always seem to say "Everything has to have a beginning & end..." Invariably my reply is something along the lines of, "you only feel that way because everything about you has a beginning & end. our minds aren't programmed to intuitively fathom "no beginning no end". .. i'm certainly no genius, but this is obvious even to me:)
@icannotfly you still can hear him teach. All three volumes of his undergrdautae course lecture are available on demonoid and probably other sites.
"By the way, that's why the Earth is round."
I love that.
"The bumps on the moon are bigger"

I just ordered this, thanks for the tip!
I'm back to bake Dr. Feynman an apple pie.
The limitations of my brain make me so angry! Despite being the supposedly most intelligent species on this little ball, our little brains are still not ready to perceive as much as I want to. Being smart enough to recognize the mysticism of reality but being unable to grasp it fully is frustrating to me. I want to perceive and understand this strange situation we're all in. I'll keep trying though.
'The best thing to do is relax and enjoy it'
3:50 Richard Feynman went both ways.
@apietikainen 8D misread a quick google search, thanks for pointing that out.
@freedo333 Hawking, Susskind, and Witton?
Wow, learned something new here about why the moon has higher mountains.
I'm guessing this was before the Hubble deep space photos... if only Richard knew how many stars we can REALLY see...
What an Astonishing Mind.
this man is amazing btw
@element68 If you do your homework in addition to twistin js, you could meet a lot of guys like him. That's all smart people do different -- they read, and if reading does't answer their questions, they think about them. Do experiments.

I love Feynman.
i hope to god that the interviewer realised how lucky he was!!
@ItsNotEvenSunny Allright, I may say some of the work that Hawking did with Penrose BEFORE getting sick and going right into fame was indeed wicked sick, and totally awesome.
I like how he was coming up with a funny solution to the deficit almost 31 years ago. We're still having the problem with it. :(
There's so many that if you tried to name them, one a second, naming all the stars in our galaxy - I don't mean all the stars in the universe, just this galaxy here, it takes three thousand years.
Yeah just think about that for a second.
@BENwins22 How was that a pun?
What are the chance to find a square planet?
2:43 .. i dont get it actually.. if you take bigger area of light and compress it to smaller area, almost like when you try to burn something with a Magnifying glass (you compress sunlight to a single, smaller spot).. doesnt it get brighter? But he says then we can see things in a weaker light...

You talkin' to me? Are you talkin' to me? x)
Doesn't matter really what system you use, as long as you state it, but more importantly understand the logic of it. Either way have fun!!! :)
@dg1ctct0 Science in general is amazing. And by the way you can't just draw a line between physics and the other fields of science.
@MrGrevy I get the Neil Tyson reference ;)
2:04 - 2:14 best part
Well assuming we won't (approximiately) reach light speed anytime soon that would be a lot longer than the earth exist, so millions of generations.
@2eelShmeal Wouldn't be surprised.
@element68
Yeah that would've been fun.
mindboggling. and what if THAT was an atom to something else? ooooo
why's Richard Feynman called Dick Feynman? Why is this his nickname?
@jimmyti9cer I don't want to burst your bubble or anything, but I think most of the great physicists have used what is possibly the most egregious drug ever invented. Indeed, they probably took this drug (orally) almost every day of their adult lives! It makes you think.
Dick is just a nickname for anyone called Richard. It's something that evolved over time.
Richard > Rich > Rick > Dick
we can never know cus we cant see that far ....cus the universe is expanding therefore we have a horizon.
@element68 i would too. & for once, while stoned, i'd keep my mouth shut & listen instead of babbling haha.
@BlindingBlizzard LSD, Marijuana, and Ketamine. He only experimented though, Didn't want to do anything that would damage his brain. Carl sagan on the other hand would light one up.

No active geology on moon... so no mountains, right?
Language is important, the minute we start saying things that sound almost certain, we should be scared!

i didnt know the moon has mountains bigger than on on the earth
That makes no sense, without life, how can you know there is physics? As you, and everyone else would not exist to know it. :/
Besides this is all trivial. As it is about understanding nature, we often forget the mass amount of interconnections between everything. Galaxy far away have some connect to you via various links.

@wilmslowforlife i agree. a moron could learn something from this cat's scientific meanderings; he has such an engaging way of telling a story or describing a phenomenom. he's like a cool uncle
@icannotfly best reason to be angry at your parents EVER
He barely hinted at the scale of the Universe, just the local stars and a suggestion of other galaxies was mentioned. To get an idea of the number of galaxies we can now see, look for 'Galaxy Zoo'.
Thank God for atheists like Feynman and others so that the best questions can be answered without the need for any 'gods'!
you do realise the irony in saying "thank God for athiests"?
That comment is wrong on so many meta-levels it'd take a week to explain it all. Here's a freebie. 90% of all science done to date was done by people of faith, mostly christians and jews but a great many of other faiths as well.

+lenowin 97.4% of people make up facts that suit themselves
The irony is that by thinking of it as a "need" you missed the entire point of the Gods.
Martin Jowsey
We see many galaxies light from billions of years ago. Question is do they still exist?
@d3st88 that's alright regarding the joke.. i'm not saying i believe in the existence of the typical christian version of God.

yes but if they did would u even exist???
would u be...u???
@zer0dahero Also, Obama wouldn't deny that "his" actions may have negatively affected us. They are fixing the problem to the best of their abilities.

100 billion stars and a deficit of 17 trillion :D You need 17 milky way sized galaxy's for that.
But probably it would just create an enormous inflation.
He did say over a year. So if that's a figure of 100 billion over the course of a year then it's totally possible
@element68 For REAL!!!
Relax and enjoy! This man's gone fission!
So hot!
@zer0dahero It's ironic that you say that while defending Bush.
Ironic indeed.
This is all lovely and gorgeous, but tell me the square root of minus one
@icannotfly best comment on here.
