- Richard Feynman was a brilliant Nobel Prize winning physicist - but also had a "rock 'n roll" personality.

Feynman has always been my most loved scientist. I still feel a bit depressed just knowing we've lost such an incredible scientist.
Over a year and still no one click don't like Feynman button.
R.Feynman has always been my favorite scientist too. Ever since I saw him back in the early 80's being interviewed by the BBC where he explained the atomic world, electricity and temperatures. This interview is available on TH-cam, it's called... "Richard Feynman - Fun to Imagine - using physics to explain how the world works"
I think a full playlist is available that has all of the sections from this amazing interview. I honestly think this interview changed my life and how I view the world.
he has been one of the most ,if not,the most influential person in my life so far :)
Feynman is just awesome in every way! He was brilliant, he was funny, he was a bit of a player, he knew how to party, he played in a street band, he was a fun writer, and most importantly, he is an inspiration.
I remember as a child my dad used to explain scientific things to me, my dad was just a plumber but he had a very good understanding of physics. he used to explain things like how a train works, or how a volcano works but one thing he got wrong was e=mc2 for some reason he thought this was newtons theory of relativity only recently was I able to explain to him what this really means (and now I can explain it even further thanks to your recent video on the subject)
Fantastic educator
Wow. I did not know he did the Challenger investigation. The fact that he could navigate that political and financial minefield and come out with an answer that would cause some sense of resolution for the public but not destroy any of the MIC entities responsible demonstrates his genius. I wonder if he wrote out a diagram to figure out how to do that...
I love Vi Hart's shout out to him in her vids on hexa-flexagons!
Happy Birthday Mr Feynman!
He is one of my favourite scientists too - mostly because he was asked if we understood x and he went away and came back and said "I cannot write a first year graduate lecture on this so no we do not understand it fully"
These videos just leave me thirsting to become a scientist.
I remember the first time I had heard Feynman explain the greater appreciation of a flower and nearly falling out of my chair as I had used that same analogy long before hearing it from him. My concept was slightly different tho; about how a rose is not just beautiful and smells nice - but which is very much related to me, bringing me ever closer to nature. ...And that was only akin to something like a "1st grade thought" for him!
He's since infected his fascination of particles upon me.
Hes my favorite too!!!
"Surely you're joking, Mr Feynman!" - greatest book ever, no exceptions.
May the crew rest in peace.
You forgot to mention his impertinent attitude and pranks and habit of going to the strip club. And his symbolic bongo drums.
my fav scientist Carl Sagan?
Great video, thank you.
"'Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!': Adventures of a Curious Character" is a great book (written by the man himself) when you want to get an insight into Mr Feynman's life. Get the audiobook if you don't like reading.
The movie Infinity (directed by Matthew Broderick) I found like a watered down version of his book, so you can skip it if you want to go straight to the book, or watch it first as an intro into the book.
Alex Filippenko is definitely up there when explaining astronomy. I thoroughly recommend his lectures with "The Teaching Company"!
That's the same edition of the Feynman Lectures I have!
en mi tesis de maestria le hice una dedicatoria, tremendo Homo sapiens Mr. Feynman!
Carl Sagan, maybe.
"Slightly rock and roll-character"... you left the bit out with the bongo drums, gambling in Vegas, nude drawings and strip club testimonial!
I loved his direct honest approach. How do scientists develop a theory ?
We guess .
But then he explains ( in a beautifully funny way ) what that means.
Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman !
I liked this video before I watched it
His Birthday is the scientist equivalent to the 1st april
@threethreetwothree33 Depending on how you define murder that may make no sense.
there was a total lack of pomposity about Feynman , I could listen the guy for hrs .
first :D
