How lucky are we that the internet exists and we can listen to the greats any time we choose?
This is exactly one the things he said was gonna happen to his stories. He was gonna die but his stories were going to live on!

How unfortunate are we that we have not moved ahead of this. We have moved behind it and now we view it with dismay. We have grown dumb.
@@floydthedroid5935 ☹
@@floydthedroid5935 actually you can’t say that we didn’t move ahead of this…because you’re comparing “us”, which are normal people, to one of the greatest mind in history ever, and that comparison doesn’t make sense. There’re progresses consistently being produced in the academia, but they’re just too complicated for normal people to understand, which make normal people think that our generation is more inferior or so.
We are able to listen to him so many years after he gave this interview.After so many years he died.Technology we have today is truly amazing.And we owe it to people like Richard Feynman who pushed human understanding just a little further.
A *LOT* further!
Feyman was probably one the most unique and genuine genious of our time.
This guy can make any topic interesting and accessible, I wish I had teachers like him in school.
Sadly, teachers aren't paid enough in middle or highschool. These people belong in highly paid positions, and they know it. Also, these schools don't allow experiments through grants like a university... Too many forces repel this grand ideal situation.
David Arthur Pay is a poor excuse. Feynman did not have highly paid teachers. In fact, his inspiration came from his Dad who was merely a Uniform salesperson but had insatiable appetite and curiosity that he passed along to Feynman.
Gaurang Vin Yes, so all you have to do is find a bunch of inspiring uniform salesmen and ask them to go into the schools to inspire the children. It doesn't matter what they know, and they will be happy to do it for nothing, just like Feynman's dad did for him.
But...where did Feynman go to college. Oh, MIT. I think he might have had some well-paid, well-informed teachers there. And if you wanted to get Feynman as a teacher? You would have needed to attend Caltech, and you would have found that he was paid well (not exorbitantly) to teach there.
Most teachers sadly lose the passion of curiosity that fueled Mr. Feynman
he was also paid to talk !
a pure love of science and understanding the universe.
This guy is my favorite person on this planet! He wants to teach me something!
this guy is a serious BADASS
yassir nejjar That’s because he’s from Far Rockaway yo!
Had a smile on my face the whole way through, Its imposible not to smile when listening to feynmans explanations.
Very warm and quite friendly, this man clearly love the mysteries of science
Such a lovely personality
Was that sarcasm? Everyone who met the guy thought he was a douche.
Filo Fitch well ,it dont look like he cared
@@filofitch1964 usually people who see douches everywhere are douches.
man...this guy is so obsessively CURIOUS. amazingly curious. he has "obsessive curiosity" disorder. no...not disorder...order. it HELPED him so it wasnt a disorder. i LOVE listening to him. what a great man he was. and still IS because we get to see and hear him forever!
scientists are pay for curious
All these Feynmann videos are great. For some reason his enthusiasm is totally infectious. A scientist and a raconteur.
And musician.
Scarily brilliant. Unique
not scary just brilliant
I think as many people as possible should view this series of videos! My jaw dropped and stayed that way for this whole video!
My first book of his I read was his autobiographical "Surely you must be Joking, Mr. Feynman" Wonderful. Hilarious. I sincerely, recommend it to anyone who finds this interesting.
He was perhaps the most insistently democratic genius I have ever read about. His chapter "Alfred Nobel's other mistake" is something of a critique of the idea of being famous for being a celebrity. Hans Bethe and Niels Bohr, men who were rightly distinguished in science when Feynman was _merely_ smart enough to be in the Manhattan Project, sought him out because not even their acknowledged brilliance held him back from arguing with them, and they were wise enough to know that occasionally they overlooked flaws in their newest ideas!
Watching him explain anything makes me so happy
What a treat!
Thank you for the high quality upload.
"When you comb your hair..."
He is wonderful.
Feynman always helps me visualize and imagine the real world in ways that are wonderful and leave me awe-filled...
I love this guy! He does (or did) exactly what I do, vis-a-vis imagine stuff, the inner-workings-of-nature kind of thing. And he's so right about how fun it is to do
I could listen to him all day. His enthusiasm is infectious. He really makes you think.
Simply fantastic! A remarkable and inspiring man....could listen for hours, weeks aeons. Thanks
i love the way he explains everything. it keeps me paying attention from beginning to end. his genius was phenomenal. i wish he was still alive so that i could pick his brain. There so many questions i would ask
Feynman is my hero. I never get tired of listening to him. It must be terrific to think as clearly as he did.
thanks for sharing - precious.
Wow,
Thank you very much.
You have to admire Feynman. True, down to earth genius...
Wonderful video
Gell-Mann watched this six times.
Christian Farina Whilst masturbating.
philipm06 haha. Maybe.
philipm06 Tut, tut, now, now children.....you must behave!
+Christian Farina SO FUNNY !!
Priceless! 😊
Wonderful. Thank you very much!
Many comments are about I wish I had a teacher like this in high school . Well, you people should understand that Feynman knows when he shoot this video that he is talking with the general public so he is making it so simple so that the public can understand it but is this how science really looks like ? The answer is NO, Feynman's scientific specialization is a very complex branch of science and science in general is hard. He just knows that he has to make his videos compelling to the public as if he is explaining something to childrens.
I love his way of thinking
awesome man great amazing i wish he was my teacher.
He is, just picture him as a long Distance Force.
I just so love this man's mind!
This is a man that loves his science. This comes across so clearly. There are those who try to imitate this only to find out that you cannot fake love.
his narratives are so accessible
I Luv science and physics but I hate the ways they are taught in school.
So true!!!
+Lynn the Religious pacs are noisey..don't want to offend their floaty dude or their belief in it
:) and i'm a former Christian..My Logic Bone kept getting in the way :)
i actually had extremely good physics teachers, but those are rare.
Even on PBS, not all NOVA programs are done well enough. A first class explainer like David Attenborough or E.O.Wilson displays his enthusiasm by NOT talking, slo-owly, all the time. Some of them, they're telling you what's in their head. Others seem to be reading from a script.
i could listen to Feynman for hours ...
brilliant truelly intresting.
He does a decent job explaining something in words that can only be explained with sound.
Fyenman is such a special person!
RPF is my inspiration - he's so *cool* in all senses of the word - made me swap good techie career for physics/cosmology study - amazing guy.. thanks voor the vid
damn, I love that man and his mind!
As much as he likes to tear at philosophers, I find that Feynman himself, has been the philosopher that has had more or an impact on my life than any other. Perhaps that because, as he likes to say, philosophers at pedantic. In fact it is Feynman who inspired me to study philosophy in university, because important to him, and in my opinion the reason he is such a famous educator, is how people think and why they think the way they do. With a particular fascination with how they think about the world, he uses physics to analyze this and he does so with perfection.
You are the one and only
I love to hear him talk about anything- He is just one regular dude who knows a metric ton of Physics!
Fun to listen to him. When I think of people like this I often think how it's almost tragic that they don't get to see where science progresses after they're gone. I wish he could have lived for 200 years.
What I love about Richard most, is that while he knows a LOT about how fundamental stuff works, he wonders about what he tells just like his audience, and can easaly admit that he knows nothing about nature.
A true man of science.
One can only fantasize about having a science teacher like this. At the opposite end of the spectrum was my Chem 105 prof, who started on the first day with a roomful of student teachers and nurses by putting Schrodinger’s wave equation on the board, and expecting us to understand it....
It's only coppah!
Get to the Coppaaaah
Lmfao these two comments together made my day. Bravo
Mr. Feynman we all love you!

Faith in humanity or anything is misplaced.
That's the word I was looking for.
Think how many people would have his curiosity about the universe if their parents challenged their kid's minds the way his father did!
He's such a likeable person.
ooh my tiny mind is spanked into place by your breathtaking wit
My favorite person in the whole world...
The big wheel that is rotating is called an alternator a synchronous generator.
Good point!
Any book with his name on it is worth a read.
Some require a bit more head-scratching though . . . . .
thank yahweh for the bbc
I'm speechless
It's hard not to poke your chair while watching this.
one may feel that.... spending for 16 years for graduation is a bad idea after listening to the way how he explains. Spending an hour will change ones whole life. Amazing teacher.... culminated human being from the all the fronts of his character
Feynman's brain was so complex, yet he could spin a story that left one thinking, "but I never thought about it that way" . I suppose this has been answered: If alike particles, protons for instance repel each other how come the concept of the atom has them huddled together in the centre of the atom. Are they herded together by the electron field that surrounds them? I am but a layman in the physics realm.
srong nuclear force
@Indygoguy
I have no idea. However, I do know that the perminant magnets do in fact lose strength over time. It is a shockingly long time, but it does occur.
everybody should watch Feynman 'Fun to Imagine' videos... it forces you to think.... which is very good!
I love how he has to explain the idea of an axiom to the interviewer
Spooky action at a disance
"Gravity is attractive, and this is repulsive."
Gosh, I don't think it's repulsive. I think it's beautiful.
"It's so enormous, that if I were all electrons..."
I really wanted him to carry on with that example!!
If he were all election he would zap the ground and dissipate before be able to saying anything.
*It's a terrible example and this is why he moved on.*
What i've learned from listening to many talks from Feynman is that a scientist does not ask a question like "why ?" because the answer depends on a context and always generates a new "why". I think scientist try to describe nature ("how") in such a way that the answer is based on general principles that can be experimentally verified
+Marco Ponte That is correct, in that everything is based on natural law, which are the laws of nature.
Feynman didn't like people asking why because he didn't know the answer. He often didn't like people asking how either for the same reason. Saying a scientist should not ask why because it asks a new question is ridiculous. Science isn't just about finding answers to existing questions, it is about finding different questions to answer.
I was expecting something more simple but when he started with "dam" I was like damn that's deep.
He's partly talking about The Pauli exclusion principle (in case anyone wanted to read further on it, it is fascinating :) )
People need to have this kind of imaginative perspective in order to love science and not the just the formula and equation based.
I had to laugh...
"It's so enormous, that if I were all electrons..."
And then he immediately acts like, "Nah, that's stupid," and goes on to something else.
ChrisC pretty sure he said « the numbers are too big ».
This guy was just a fucking badass.
Someone should really do visuals and animations of what he’s describing.Would make really great educational videos.
Watch this video and listen to wonderful way Richard Feynman explains what electricity, magnetism or electromagnetism is.
Yep, there is a big man in the sky playing a really big game of The Sims.
I'm just glad I know how to get out of a pool without a ladder.
@liverloop123 OH! I almost forgot Brian Cox. He's amazing too, he does a lot of documentaries with the BBC and he's a particle physicist at CERN.
imagine if this guy was a live to show up on the Joe Rogan podcast
He would totally have his on channel with millions of subscribers.
Those 32 dislikes must be coming from philosophers, he used to piss these people a lot xD
10/10.
Hi Christopher and everyone,
I'm subtitling this video and I don't understand what he says on 3:09; he's talking about forces that we're used to, forces of direct action, and then he says, "But then you have to imagine what it is that's pushing with the finger.." (please correct me if I'm wrong) then he says two phrases about little atoms which I don't fully understant, until he says "and there's a little space between those atoms, and this pushing is going through that space". Anyone help? Pls
thanks! i hope to hunt down the actual thing this is from
7:54 laughs like Sheldon!
When ya comb ya heya...
Richard reminds me of Tony Curtis.
They don't need to travel to do what he is saying about, just resonate and pass on an effect to the end, which as you probably know happens very quickly!
❤❤❤
i love being in the future :D
For the quote 'Scientists are explorers. Philosophers are tourists,' may I have the original source information? Is it mentioned in any book, or has anyone heard Feynman say this, perhaps during a lecture or discussion with friends?
@Unloadedx5
Indeed, science is the best!
Elementary my dear Watson.
Toroidal field.
Life is the forces of opposition NULL and attraction.
SPOOKY ACTION AT A DISTANCE.
@MemeMachine1
down to earth man !
@andres6868 I understand all of it, which only proves his genius because I'm by no means a particle physicist, and yet I've learned a lot from watching this interview because of how amazing he is at explaining everything in simple terms.
@Polybun You making a coaster out of her ashes?
