- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ส.ค. 2024
- At the age of 9 he knew what he wanted to do with his life, and he never wavered from his goal. Now, he’s one of the world’s most famous scientists. He’s earned the title of “Most Powerful Nerd In The Universe” from National Public Radio and the title of “The World’s Sexiest Astrophysicist” from People Magazine. He was instrumental in cutting down the number of planets in our solar system, and in doing so upset entire generations who had come to love Pluto as the quirky, smallest planet. And who is this icon of science that’s recognizable by the general populace? … Neil deGrasse Tyson.

This guy is hella cool. This may sound strange, but he's one of the few scientists who can make me feel uneducated, but not feel stupid about it.
Uneducated and stupid is not the same thing.
hahaha Oh man. What a statement!!
@@Jarod-vg9wq exactly his point
@Collin Caperton stupid people usually feel condescended to when dealing with true intelligence.
You gotta meet Veritasium
I cannot express how much my son and I love, admire and respect this man. A jack of all personalities (athlete, intellectual, even comedian), yet he chooses to enlighten and educate us, the feeble minded.
Funny story. I met Tyson at a meet and greet after one of his shows. I stood in the long line thinking what am I going to say to him. Well, I thought about a video I seen on TH-cam of one of his Q&As that he did at a lecture hall. He explained Isaac Newton's Orbit Cannon photo. It blew my mind and put the bug in me to learn more. Like a fool, because I only had about 5 seconds, I decided to share that with him. How he inspired me to learn. I walked up to him, shook his hand and smiled for a photo. I turned and blurted out something about I saw your video on TH-cam, blah blah, Isaac Newton blah blah. Complete gibberish. He stared at me as if I was speaking Cantonese. Then i thought to myself (you fool, there are so many videos of him on TH-cam. He has no idea what you're talking about.) So I said, I'm a big fan, it's nice to meet you. He said eeehh, nice to meet you too. 😂😂☹️ Love the channel by the way! At least i walked away with a photo.
Post the photo!
Biographics I think I was star struck lol
You can tell people this a photo of you and your Dad. There is resemblance.
Star struck. Nice.
Biographics yes. Many people said that on my Facebook post of this photo. I did a side by side photo of Neil and my dad. Practically twins.
One of the great attributes of Dr. Tyson is his quick wit and analytical mind. He often debates people who are anti-science and puts them in their place, showing them their flawed line of thinking.
Dr. Tyson has a fantastic smile.
Beard Cheese I find your mom annoying but she’s great 🛌. Your should’ve seen what she did with that cheese grater
@Beard Cheese - I see that. He can be so full of enthusiasm and the need to share knowledge that he dominates a discussion, which makes him seem full of himself. I don't think his ego is as subdued as Simon implied, plus his natural extroversion, can definitely make him annoying to some.
@jiggus figgus how?
@jiggus figgus so making science deniers look like idiots is bad?
You should feel bad for being so unintelligent then.
I love when people get to do something they wanted to do since childhood and be good at it
Neil deGrasse Tyson … Is arguably the greatest living teacher alive today. I never get tired to listening to this mans podcasts and TH-cam clips.... Pure magic!
Me too! I've learned so much from him!! His science lectures are up there with other scientists who have taught us elementary sciences that actually made sense and answered our questions. Bill Nye, the other guy and Neil are the greatest scientists in the world!!!!!
I love Neil de Grasse Tyson, I’m not academic material myself, but I truly appreciate his contribution to the scientific community and especially the fields of astrophysics and cosmology.
Coolest nerd we've got!

A legend in our own lifetime, true gentleman, and fitting successor to the great Carl Sagan... Responsible for so many's interest in astronomy and physics alike.
A true inspiration
For Titanic, you called the director David Cameron, when it's James Cameron.
Other than that - great video.
We know. We are sorry.
Jan Egeland james Cameron doesn't do what James Cameron does so you can forget the name of James Cameron
You should check out the Robin Williams bio in which they called his wife "Marcia Grimes" instead of Marcia Garces, and showed us the Wikipedia picture of Marcia Gay Harden (who was his Flubber co-star, not his wife). A giant mix-up that one was.
Tyson did not so much remove Pluto from the display as COMPLETELY change how the planets were displayed.
My son and I travelled to Brisbane last year to meet Dr Tyson at one of his talks. I’m loving this biography.
I would love to see Penn and Teller.
Those are two seperate people.
Go to Las Vegas and see them then.
@@coena9377 Biographics made a video about Evita and Juan Perón, Sirhan Sirhan and Robert Kennedy, not out of the ordinary
Especially there’s 80’s work !
DO CARL SAGEN NEXT
Yes please do!!
Ditto
It's now been done.
This channel keeps knocking it out of the park! Excellent coverage of Mr. Tyson
Well done for not using inappropriate music for once
Who knows, we may not use it again too.
I dunno...I like the music for the Arnold Swartzenegger bio. Whatevs; do you. Just please don't lose the "thumbs up" animation at the end of the video.
Really wonderful video. I've lived in "The Bronx" all my life and he has been a great source of pride to me, and others. Thank you.
This was a really good one! I'm sharing it far and wide. I'd love to see more scientists' bios: Sagan, Feynman, and even the more personally unpleasant ones like Hubble. Great minds don't always have great personalities, and some are simply misunderstood. Anyway, keep up the good work! I'm really enjoying this channel so far!
Thank you so much b
I just found out Tictock videos in China are geared towards educational subjects math n science. In America their algorithm pushes anti education, silliness n conspiracy theories. Think about that.
Pluto would've gotten away being labelled as a planet if it weren't for that meddling scientist Neil deGrasse! *shakes fists*
I am glad they did a biographic on Neil DeGrasse, hope they make one for Carl Sagan.
Do Nelson Mandela please.
H.G. Wells, Jules Verne, Carl Sagan, Stephen Hawkins, Richard Dawkins & Christopher Hitchens and I'll swear my eternal loyalty to you!
Thanks for running a couple of great channels, well needed in our day and age.
Neil deGrasse Tyson for president in 2020 ! PLEASE ?!
hotdrippyglass that would ruin the man. He be smart and no take it.
Thank you for this Simon. This served as an unexpected inspiring jolt to my day.
Zapp!
Man that last quote, he couldn't have said it better.
One of my favorite people on the planet! Thank you, Simon ❤️
I don't know of any video games with Dr Tyson, so that is one media format that is still untouched by him.
Talk about an American icon and extremely positive role model, that man is what every kid who has even an inkling of an interest in the stars should strive to emulate....
Jordan Belfort (The wolf of Wall street) would be awesome!
Tyson is amazing, and I love the way he explains science, space and the universe in both Cosmos and the audio version of Astrophysics For People In A Hurry. The one thing about him that contradicts this usual calm persona is how he gets in debates. I've watched a few TH-cam vids of him in debates on shows and other venues and he can really pushy, hardly letting the other person get a word in edgewise. Still very smart and charismatic.
I was pretty stoked to see a snap from Neil's interview on Hot Ones in there. Another awesome show with a great, well researched host.
Ok, did anybody else notice Simon call James Cameron “David?”
Really enjoyed this video, thanks team. I love biographies of people of colour, famous or infamous - more of that PLEASE! 🙏🏿
I wanna meet him just to ask him this, *ahem* "Is math related to science?"
Yes obviously
Math is the language of science
Wow. I bet he'd love that question. It's a hard one, but he might just be able to come up with an answer. :P
You are emitting Katy Perry, that's rude
Up to now I don't watch Biographics of people still alive, but for my favorite scientist I make an exception
TH-cam’s algorithm sent me here. I just started watching his MasterClass. Good job, Simon.
Thank you, Simon... Well done!!!
Literally no one has commented about the director of titanic, “David” Cameron. I didn’t think it was possible but my faith in humanity has been lowered even further.
Excellent! Great subject matter!
Good stuff enjoy all of your channels.... suggestions for future videos: Galileo, Aristotle, and even some early criminals like Bonnie & Clyde, John Dillenger & pretty boy Floyd.
Dr. Tyson makes science easily accessible and understood, not a normally easy thing to do. I wish I'd had science teachers like him when I was in school.
Love this so much! Just recently watched a bunch of videos and interviews of Neil, he is such a wonderful man. Thank you thank you. :)
Hey I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your channels Simon! Biographics keeps teaching me new things- keeps me sharp for trivia night!☺
The world doesn't coming short of numbers of scientists that are finding, debunking, searching, cracking, solving, etc... but poor on sending the message, excite, and attract the general public to like it.
And there is one person no other than Neil deGrase Tyson with his rockstar persona to make science sounds cool in general public and we need a lot like him.
This is the single joy of my week!
I have to say this channel is fast becoming one of my favourites!
Glad you feel that is something you have to say. ;-)
This was a great video. One of the coolest people, who admittedly, I’ve only recently discovered. The guy is a genius, funny as hell and so well spoken too. 👌🏻
An episode on Sir Chrisopher Lee would be very interesting
I just saw that. What a life! Highly recommend.
@Biographics Simon, I absolutely love this new show!! Fantastic and concise biographies that manage to capture the essence of the subject of each show! Bravissimo Simon, bravissimo‼️♥️♥️♥️💯💯💯✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼
I happened to be teaching a science unit about our solar system when Pluto was declared no longer a planet. As this was a Preschool (3’s) program, it was a great opportunity to teach that the more we learn, sometimes we need to change our thinking. It was an interesting challenge to take the former planet of Pluto out of our displays, teaching, artwork,etc. I believe that it was a wonderful lesson that learning can evolve and we need to keep checking the facts. Neil Tyson is an amazing person! 💫
"rose to stardom" Haha, good pun.
Would love to see one on Ronnie James Dio, one of the most influential people to the rock and metal genre and its culture. Even after his death to cancer people still raise their hands in his honor at every rock and metal concert around the world \m/
Souchirouu I agree on RJD. My avatar says it all...
Leonarda DaVinci
Leonardo DaVinci - Sorry, typo

Troy Leonard Nimoy he might be interesting
I love that he tweets at 3:14 a.m. Those of you who are math nerds will appreciate the significance of this time.
I generally despise math, but I love dessert....
I really love this new channel! Seeing the in-depth of people both past and present is so fascinating to me. Would it be possible to do a series on women who pushed the boundaries in their eras? Like Susan B. Anthony or Eleanor Roosevelt?
I always look forward to a new video of Biographics, Top Tenz and Today I Found Out. I just recently watched the Patton video you did. And I was thinking that there is another Military Officer who has almost a cult like following. Being a former U.S. Marine I could only be talking about Lieutenant General Chesty Puller United States Marine. I don’t think not many people outside the Marine Corps knows about this man and what he has done for his country but also what he means for Marines like myself.
I feel this would be a great addition to this channel and maybe also a good Top Tenz video on his top ten quotes.
With this video on a guy who is a pop culture icon and scientist, you should do a video on Professor Brian Cox.
Keep on with these great videos. I'm learning more about people I was familiar and unfamiliar with.
Tyson is an inspiration and makes me want to learn more about everything everyday.😊
Great video Simon... Science can bring us all together. Thanks Neil So Much...Carl Sagan RIP x
Watching Simon everyday is exactly why I used to watch The History Channel in the 90's, I actually learn real things.
Tyson is truly one of the greatest minds of our time! Why doesn't black american media talk more about him?!
Not a single mention of him being the "Watch out, we got a badass over here" meme?
James Cameron directed Titanic not David Cameron haha. Too much Visual Politik I think.
Darshan Dixit I think Simon just got confused because he's British, so David Cameron was his Prime Minister. :)
I thought so; he was mine too :)
I love your show, I find myself learning more and more about people I had never even heard of before! (Not in the case of Tyson though) :D
I loved this one and also recently saw a doc on Bill Nye. I would love to see one on Carl Sagan now since he influenced both of these men and talk about him in their own stories.
great video! I'd like to request a Biography of Gene Roddenberry from Star Trek please?
I love NEIL DEGRASSE TYSON❤❤❤ and hope to meet and tell him how much he inspired me during my childhood to pursue science
Do one on Galileo. I read a biography on him when I was in the 5th grade. I have been in love with astronomy ever since. Galileo is a perfect example of persecution of new ideas, something that seems to be happening today, and how powerful ignorance can be.
Steven Segal. His acting is meh but his pre hollywood life might surprise you.
Like when he pooped his pants from Gene LeBell choking him out
Like how his entire life is a fabrication
You mean everything he made up?
James Cameron, not David. Also, it would've been nice to mention his response to B.o.B's cringey flat-earth beef. Great vid!
Thank you, this was great!
You should do a biography on Bill Nye. He is a much greater scientist, don't get me wrong. I respect Neil DeGrasse Tyson. But he is more of a speaker and administrator then a researcher.
I think Brian May from Queen is a sexier astrophysicist than Neil deGrasse Tyson. Also, do a video on him. He's fascinating.
They should do Freddie Mercury, too! His life was *very* interesting.
you are 100% right
Simon Whistler; the Neil deGrasse Tyson of Biographies
I would have loved to have Dr. Tyson as one of my professors. Great communicator!!
Fidel Castro please!
Andre De Grasse. Canadian sprinter. Multi gold-medalist. And how do I remember his name? Andre De Grasse Tyson.
Heather Bailie Andre Agassi Mike Tyson
Neil Degrasse Tyson, probably the most intelligent man currently on the planet.! In my opinion, he rivals Hawkings and Einstein. I would like to meet him one day, shake his hand, and just say thank you for all that you’ve given us.
I liked the video before I even watched it. This one is gonna be good! 😱🍿
I would love to see a video on Wayne Gretzky.
You forgot arguably one of his best roles in social media when he backed up bill against the original founder of the law of gravity
What a career!!!
Nicely done. How about a video on someone more obscure that doesn't have a ton of videos already on TH-cam?
One of the best ones yet!..Do one of these for Bill Nye!?
He also made an appearance on Stargate Atlantis to round out his nerd appeal 👍👍💯❤️
Some suggestions for future videos:
George Carlin
Bill Maher
Stephen Colbert
John Oliver
Bill Gates
Augustus Caesar
George RR Martin
Robert Oppenheimer
Samuel "Mad Sam" deStefano
James "Whitey" Bulger
Vito Genovese
Charles "Lucky" Luciano
Neil deGrasse Tyson also had a few features on Logic's new album. He didn't rap, but did some interludes.
I have wanted to know more about Neil deGrasse Tyson how amazing it is to such a light in these times.
Biographic on Marcus Garvey
You guys should do Albert Einstein
I still don't understand why he is so popular, what research or invention he done like other popular scientists.
He's like science enthusiast and talks more than doing actual scientific work
2.7k likes vs 39 dislikes.
im just going to assume that small number of folks accidently hit the wrong button.
I remember when Pluto was classified as a planet, then was "downgraded". When it happened, the only thing that crossed my mind was "neat" xD. I'm surprised people got as angry as they did about it.
This was the first vid i watched from this channel. I hit subscribe only 2 mins in!! Great work, very informative! I know so far you have done very well known people, But the person i would love to see next is Ben Folds (the musician and most awesome piano player, of Ben Folds Five Fame)
Just someone who personally has also inspired me with his music, and life.
I wish we lived far longer. So much I wan't to learn and discover. I feel i was born to early. I really would love to see what life is like in the far future.
Would love to see one about Bill Russell
James, not David Cameron was the director of Titanic.
