I think Toby you have captured every moment of his life cooool.
Why did u stop your maths lessons... I sub you for that only
Wonderful! I look forward to more videos which challenge the pseudo-divinity of historical figures
This was super interesting thanks Tibees!
@Karan did it hurt?
even his wife is relative
Einstein's Theory of Personal Relativity?
Thanks, you made my day.
This deserves to be top comment
Imagine using some big brain science just to prove incest is okay 😄
lol nais
From studying science to studying Einstein's divorce papers
*PARKOUR*
🤣🤣🤣
yeah, pretty sad.
@@therfnoob7697 not really, diversifying isn't a bad thing
The wisest I read today 👍

“Idolize ideas more than you idolize people” - Love this! Thanks for the well-researched & fun video.
Dont do either idolising is idolatry and you can get possesed by ideas such as communist or hyper capitalism etc
@@KaizorianEmpire everyone is possessed think à bit
@@KaizorianEmpire thanks bro I appreciate you for these words
@@jackred2362 I get it too but they're both dangerous. Criticise everything do not be possed. The idea of equality possessed millions to kill millions in China and russian communism. Idea of white supremacy have rise to many white shippers enslaving others. So yeah possession is always bad. Just think critically about eveything.
Ideas, especially good ones does not come easily or readily or by itself so therefore it does point to a special individual to come up with one, hence the idolization.
Imagine Einstein getting canceled by Twitter
Ibraheem Al hadede LMAO
He didn´t do that much after his divorce from his mathematician wife, make of that what you will, so it would probably not be such a big loss.
@@alicianieto2822 and so you are saying he should have been cancelled? Because as you insinuate actually his wife was the one who did his best work for him, therefore it would have been no great loss for humanity if he had been cancelled?
@@michaelmityok1001 No, I´m just saying that it would not have made a big difference in the world either way.
He’ll probably be cancelled on Twitter posthumously anyway! 😂
She started off with reviewing exams and now she's reading Einstein's love letters. 😂😂
lol
He is one of the greatest scientists in the world and many science lovers want to know about the personal life of people they admire.
@@AA-cy9ib I was just pulling her leg. I don't have any problem with the video tbh
@Ankit Saksena what's fake?
@Ankit Saksena it's literally available online
When his wife Elsa became ill, instead of comforting her, Einstein basically retreated to intense study in order to distract from her mortality. Despite his ridiculous mathematical and scientific prowess, I think it's safe to say he had below-average social and emotional intelligence. In fact, the dude was downright cruel to some of the people in his life.
I would not be surprised if a hefty level of Aspergers was involved.
Turi Caederynmab he had a speech impediment while he was a child and therefore didn’t interact while in school.
If we counted only geniuses with good social skills, we would have very few geniuses. Possibly none.
Since "genius" implies something like "unusual brain structure," we cannot expect that all the side-effects of such an unusual structure will be good. Some are bound to be bad.
Ralph Dratman makes sense. But there’s probably (and probably have been) ridiculous smart people in all ways w good social intelligence bc that’s something that can easily be learned. Don’t know any off the top of my head though

"Idolize ideas more than you idolize individuals" ~ Toby
Pop psychology trash.
As Mileva became more well-known, Einstein's circle panicked and are trying to belittle Mileva in her research.
The crucial point to be noted here is that rather than Einstein being a bad husband and a man, it is possible that Mileva, not Einstein, made the discovery that changed the history of physics. To ignore this point these days and present his as a bad husband and a man rather than someone who stole Mileva's work is to distort the point.
We often see people reading Mileva and Einstein's letters these days, but I think what they're doing is just trying to hide the truth.
Maybe, Einstein's insistence on divorce is to prevent Mileva from receiving any honors in his soon-to-be Nobel Prize and erase her name from history.
and it looks like he's done it for more than 80 years.
but the truth has a habit of coming out sooner or later.
@@arzuozcan7039 You've done a little more research than the person who filmed this. Mileva was an extraordinary person and it's time more information about her is more widely known.
2:02 sounds quite like Sheldon and Amy's Relationship contract.
At first glance I thought it looked like a set of multiple choice exam questions ...
Sheldon, “Your contract is still a bit short on specifics Albert, but an excellent start.”
YEEES that's what I thought too!
My first thought was, "Yup, nerds."
Guess what it was based on.
He was a genius but selfish in his private life. But he knew his flaws, as he wrote ..."What I admire in your father is that, for his whole life, he stayed with only one woman. This is a project in which I grossly failed, twice."
you must watch genius and then judge einstein.
@@parneetsingh9863 Judgement is already made. First: Prove those letters are forged.
@@simplepotato24 yeah i completed watching those series just 2 days ago!! nd now i know the truth! he cheated both of his wives
@@parneetsingh9863bro genius is the Bollywood movie how I judge to watch
@@abdusabdud8218 bhai yeh Hollywood series h ek jo albert einstein ki life pe bni h.. iske 2 seasons h..
Next- Einstein's grocery list,
Nice video btw.
Lmao😂
This is like the finest TEA video I’ve ever watched
@Ricky Smith It means gossip
“Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love.”
― Albert Einstein
70% of quotes on the internet are fake.
He didn't believe in astrology then?
@@left6121 Einstien would have asked you the source of your statistics. Lol
@Karan haha
Isn't gravity responsible for all the mass in my body though? Gravity is at least partially responsible.
Wow, Einstein was cruel when it became to relationships.
I wouldn't say cruel, just honest. He eventually did give her the Nobel Prize earnings which she bought the apartment with.
He practically accused her of not taking enough risk but he couldn't say it to her in such a way. She always kept her head down worried about other people and Einstein, he just wanted to go on adventures, discover things, and conquer life.
They were both brilliant, so they settled for a contract.
Smart people are best paired with people who are slightly dumber than they are in relationships or it often doesn't work out.
He is ready to give her his Nobel price-earnings and 25,000 dollars 💸 annually how is that cruel ❓ ❓ ❓ ❓
They were on the edge of getting divorced; of course they were cruel. Divorce brings out the worst in people.
Any man who demands to be treated like a respectful husband is cruel to feminazis only.
you judge that that from a few words, knowing nothing. Einstein gave a lot of money to his wife.
That first letter was absolutely disgusting.
His wife´s behaviour was probably disgusting as well otherwise Einstein wouldn´t talk like that.
@@globaldigitaldirectsubsidi4493 even so, he was a coward to not talk straight to her what he bothered him. Violent bursts usually come from unresolved communication.
@@globaldigitaldirectsubsidi4493 intelligent doesn't mean good person. The above is far from conclusive evidence that he was a bad person, or that he wasn't a good person. but we have very little evidence to believe that he was a good person to be friends with
@@mcnuggatron2129 well what does good person even mean. There is probalby no other person who surpasses what Albert Einstein did for the world. Albert Einstein´s research is the basis for the entire modern world essentially. As some western spoiled brat, how pathetic would it be for me to judge someone from my armchair who struggled so hard.
@@globaldigitaldirectsubsidi4493 to judge him, meaning him (not his achievements) you're just as qualified as anyone else to judge him.
His accomplishments in physics, math, philosophy, etc etc are amazing, but what were his social achievements? Less than average.
That's all I'm claiming, in his personal/social life, he very well may have been a terrible person.
“A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it.”
― Albert Einstein
@Anshal Mishra -big- wise brain
"A clever AI (artificial intelligence) devises plans to successfully take over the world. An even more clever AI tricks humans into creating it, by spreading ideas like Roko's basilisk onto the internet, ahead of its own creation, and then proceeds to begin implementing plans to take over the world, also before its own creation."

Nah that does not seems to be the case one of eistein greatest work about gravitation was published around 1918 four years after seperation.
Einstein was given noble prize for photoelectric effect not for energy mass relation.
Mileva also failed to graduate, check out her grdes.
That first list of conditions truly was something else. Even if I imagined myself playing the bad guy in a divorce situation Id never even get close to being that cruel. Oof.
And he took credit for her work on theory of relativity.
*Idolize ideas more than you idealize personalities*
Tibee, 2020
Someone else has already said it.
@@sudarshan3965 Guess i was late
The fact that Mrs.Mileva accepted those conditions is even more surprising than the fact she didn't slap him with that paper :v
She must have seen something that an outsider like me can't tell.
And still, it was 20th century, and he had an affair with his cousin. That makes me feel awkward.
They had two children...
@@AnaB012 They had no children. Toby even states that towards the end of the video.
@@Dudemon-1 They had two sons Eduard and Hans Albert and Mileva gave birth to daughter which fate is not known.
You can google interview one of his sons.
@@AnaB012 -- I thought you were replying to the comment about his affair with his cousin.
@@Dudemon-1 I did. However I was implying how Albert was unfair toward Mileva and they had two sons, one with special needs wich enhance all situation. Mileva needed to take care of the kids and they were at first place for her and that influenced on her career and all her decisions.
2:22 he knew where it hurt her the most and just went on it, she didn't deserve that
Man, he was clearly a dick.
She didn’t? What makes you so sure?
@@RedsByrd What makes _you_ so sure she deserved it?
Throwaway Account when did I say she deserved it?
@@RedsByrd You either agree that she didn't deserve it, or you don't and believe that she did deserve it. Which one is it? All the evidences, insofar as this video is concerned, have only indicated that Einstein's harsh treatment towards Mileva was, well, unnecessarily harsh.
1:54 Woah, that's kind of heartbreaking.
Why?
he wanted out and put in outlandish conditions ... he didn't expect her to accept them
um no
What could Mileva have done to deserve that? I see Einstien a little differently now
@The Great Bodhisattva Hachiman Pretty much yeah, I feel a bit stupid now 😅
Idolizing ideas more than idolizing people is a good point. However, flaws in notable figures can also demonstrate that these figures were human beings like us, they had flaws like us. Hence, it may give people grounds to relate to such figures.
Brutal! I wonder what caused their marriage to go from being so seemingly perfect and happy to a dumpster fire in a few short years?
Einstein’s impulsivity is my guess
Seemed like she struggled with his lifestyle, they met before he became famous but then she got pregnant after they left university but perhaps they were too young to understand what starting a family really meant especially so in the times they lived in when men were the breadwinners and that they were frequently away from home even if they werent famous. She had no problem with his money though lol.
Maybe she did want more out of life and didn't really want to be stuck left at home with kids because she was studying mathematics and really smart but she was now clearly stuck as the housewife, perhaps she feels Einsine owes her since she clearly gave that up to look after the kids but it's complicated too cos back then women were rarely recognized still and still the men made the money, but at the same time i don't think she wanted to be a famous scientist either.
@@FlyingMonkies325 why do u say "she had no problem with his money though" and "I don't think she wanted to be a famous scientist". It was prob a forced idea that it has to only be women to take care of the children but maybe she could have done both. I saw in a previous vid that she tried two times to pass and get a degree but she couldn't attend classes bec of Einstein. Einstein on the other hand had his classmate to help him out and passed. And since they're already separated she needed money to take care of herself n children since she is raising the kids alone n nor had a degree. Even if she enjoys/doesn't enjoy money it is visible that there was no other option for her at that point.
His ego:)
And obsessive compulsive determination :)
Few genius of his type are decent moral humans.
Just is.
Autism + high intellect + academia + physics + 1900's social norms + being in Germany + being male = Albert Einstein.
Loving these videos! It's been really interesting to take a look into one of the greatest mind's personal life, and honestly it has been a bit surprising for me. Thank you for your attention to detail (tea stained paper, outfit, background, etc) it adds a lot to the video! Keep up the great work :)
RIP Einstein.
Love letters? Revealed.
Divorced letters? Exposed.
Privacy? Gone
Hotel? Trivago.
Her narrative is so soothing, it makes me wanna sleep. Would make an excellent bed time story teller.
I was talking to my Wife whilst my 7yo Daughter was listening, about one of my father's friends - I said he "used a bouquet of swear words".
My Daughter piped up and said "that's what you give somebody for a divorce"
So true!

Hello papa
Impressive documentary. Thanks!
Really appreciate your videos, especially your unique video ideas and effort in dressing in the costume that matches the theme!
" Love is relative " ~ Albert Einstein
Wow, how times have changed! I love the timeline, it really helps understand. Great work as always Toby.
I always wondered about Einstein's private life I've watched all your videos related to that, such an enigmatic character, great videos really! I love that you're always smiling, and such a soft voice.
You're absolutely awesome, Toby!
Thanks for sharing this, Toby. I was not very familiar with Albert Einstein’s personal life and I couldn’t agree more with your assessment that people should place ideas in high regard rather than trying to justify idolizing a specific person with all the complications that brings. Nobody’s life is perfect and although it is important to use that a way to keep us grounded in reality, there is no reason to try to fit the entirety of a person’s messy life onto a pedestal that should be reserved for the pure value or concept itself.
Great research!
It's always a pleasure watching your videos toby
Once again great work Toby
Avoids controversy through divorcing someone to marry his cousin. There's smart and there's S.M.R.T.
whoa.
THESE VIDEOS ARE GOLD! Please make more like them. 🙏
A scientific community gossip/private lives of scientists playlist would be great. :))
This video was amazing. Thank you so much for this really interesting information
Great content Tibees !! 😍
Thanks Tibees
had you not been with me in this covid pandemic
I would have got depressed ❤️
And thats why I never idolize anyone. I may admire the work ir achievements and thats as far as It gets
Your voice is very peaceful !😊
Cool research and presentation 👍
Very intriguing. Getting to know the real person behind the fame a celebrity status always reveals a real person.
There has been a debate about Mileva's contribution in some of key Scientific discoveries of Einstein... Einstein's letter to Mileva offering Nobel is perhaps a strong evidence...
In Einstein's own words: "I need my wife as she solves all the mathematical problems for me"...
That was really cool. Thanks for sharing.
You've got such a wonderful handwriting, Toby.
In Ireland we call a guy like that a bollocks.
I remember a line from Genius: Einstein on Nat Geo where Mileva was taking their kids and herself away from Einstein..
"You cannot have everything, Albert."
Love from kenya .Super content tibees🙏🙏
Your voice is so lovely and soothing
I guess if you cheat on your wife, the smart thing to do is to treat her like a maid.
this is just part of the divorce process .. he would be happier if she didn't accept
@@tomservo5007 what do you mean?
Yeah, it was really demeaning considering his first wife Mileva was his intellectual equal, they were class mates at Uni. both being Physicists and she gave it all up to be a stay at home mom raising the kids.
Albert Einstein was all about the money.
@@MuantanamoMobile Also she was not credited for the part she played in "his work"
You are the best. Thank you for this.
:)
How do u manage to smile seamlessly through out the video. Any depressed being would get cheerful looking at you
Your voice is so soothing.
Even as a remarkable theoretical physicist we tend to forget he is a human being. We make mistakes too, so before anyone thinks lowly of him realize how this can inspire you to pursue knowledge, and that regardless of your past mistakes you too can accomplish remarkable achievements. Hold on to your passion, pursue it, do not doubt your capabilities, and most of all never say you aren't smart enough. Massive thanks to Tibees for such amazing facts.
I would love to see a similar series of videos on the life of the Curie's
I don't know that we have her personal papers and the like, besides I don't belive @UC52kszkc08-acFOuogFl5jw will have any interest in trowing shadows on any female scientist. Einstein was complicated, and an absolute prodigy, so we know a lot about him.
She has released it
Love this channel ❤️
Amazing video quite insightful.
Again another big reveal... 😍😍Lots of love for Tibees... 💖
Your like makes my day💐
Hmm good 👍
I can't wait for a collab video with Einstein's ghost after he haunts you for sharing his personal documents.
Your voice is so relaxing.
Ooof that tea was spilled so hard :o awesome vid 😆
Very epic thumbnail
This video gave us great insight into the social mind of Einstein, not much different than many famous people in Hollywood and elsewhere, all human beings with respective frailties. I''m sure that similar papers are possibly available for many other genius types who have so "impressed us" over the years. Thank you for the video.

Tibees is my favourite science TH-cam channel. She is intelligent and charismatic. I love her.🙂
this channel is worth subscribing it
I think during the early 19's she had a thing for Einstein after collecting all the letters, She found a time machine which he build and she travelled to the future
Good morning Tibee!!
That hand writing is very nice
In this episode of stalking beyond the grave with Tibees....
Jk. Cool concept. Great execution.
Hahaha
Toby I like your voice it is very vocal and soothing....
Love from India 😃😃.......
very good work ,thanks
good content ,the conditions were good to read .
Very interesting, thank you :)
Judging by the title, I thought you will be showing his incomplete paper which could explain all of physics
@@bengrizzlyadams6187 he was writing a paper explaining all of physics but he passed away before completing it
I love your channel
Best quote: Idolize ideas, not the individuals.
Okay I'm second because everyone is FIRST here! 🤷
Lol I'm first

So magnanimous 🥰
I am.last
This is absurd and meaningless
I love your work...big fan of yours...love from India...
Kaha see Hain bey tu
Your new hairstyle is amazing. Great video.
Liked your added note, to separate the idea from the person! 👍
Tibees, could you make a review of Mileva's life? She also was a physicist, one of the first women in science.
I love your videos, Tib
After watching the video Einstein be like :
*Don't make me come down there you punk!!*
Her voice is simply so sweet and captivating.
Hi tibees thank you, you are a truly amazing person. So was Einstein. Take care, enjoy life.
