PART 2 of our Russel Stannard ASMR series is here: th-cam.com/video/kxL2VIsC_y0/w-d-xo.html. Thank you again, Lee, for this great video playlist suggestion! Check other one of our space videos from before th-cam.com/video/1tkM-Ml7hwE/w-d-xo.html. Nothing beats science videos explained by a British scientist! We're excited to know what interesting space facts you learned. Let us know below!
I fall asleep from this not because it is boring, but because it is interesting enough to take me away from my worries, without spiking intense emotions.
This man was truly amazing. He died age 90 on July 4th 2022. His legacy will live on through opening minds to the fascinating subject that is science. Rest in peace, shining star.
I love this video so much. I have horrible nightmares and insomnia, and I’ve fallen asleep to this video dozens of times. He has a such kind way of explaining increasingly complex concepts. If there’s an afterlife, I hope for him it is somewhere he can do as much exploring and research and learning as he wants
i was so happy reading an earlier thread saying he was happily alive, then i come across your comment to have my happiness immediately crushed. rest in peace doctor stannard :(
Guys, he didn’t cut the worm in half!! He shows you it at the end and talks to it telling it that it’s had its fifteen seconds of fame and it’s back to work in the garden!! No worms were hurt in the making of this video!! This is my new favourite video. He’s wonderful. Wonder if he knew Minsky ?
This Professor is very brilliant. Some of the questions he poses shows that he knows a hell of lot more than we do, but he humbles himself to say he doesn't even know a lot of what he wants to know. Also, he is smart enough to keep the math out so as not to bore and confuse the layman. Well spoken, and thanks to him for putting this together.
I wonder if people this intelligent and deep would be offended if I fell asleep while they were talking talking to me? It's genuinely not through boredom, it's literally because they have a calming relaxing manner, AND are discussing such fascinating subjects. If anything my falling asleep should be the ultimate form of flattery to them. 😉
I had a science teacher with a soft-spoken voice like this, our science lessons were late in the day so he always brought little pillows for when we'd inevitably doze off.
When I was a boy my mum bought me his books called 'The time and space of Uncle Albert'. They're children stories where Professor Stannard taught science through Uncle Albert talking to his niece Gendanken. 25 years later I still remember them and how he made complex physics fun and accessible. Thank you and rest in peace professor.
I attended a science class in college where a substitute teacher (kinda like this man) talked about astrophysics and electromagnetic light in such a manner that I was super relaxed by the end of the class. Found the topic really interesting. After that I was always eager to hear a lecture by a calm teacher/speaker. Understood a few years later that what I experienced was asmr.
@@Puppy_PuppingtonI had a similar experience from a soft-spoken teacher in elementary school. I didn't understand what it was until ASMR was coined. And yes, I get a tingly sensation in my chest, neck, shoulders and upper arms.
Same! I’d always go on long drives with my grandpa when I was a kid and he would listen to audio books but I never understood what I felt was asmr until my adulthood
Check out the concept of a Boltzmann brain... A brain that doesn't know about itself, concepting an idea with a virtual brain that doesn't know itself, reading a comment about boltzmann brains that don't know themselves reading about brains that don't know themselves...
Edited: he doesn't cut the worm. He goes on to describe how a worm might be bisected accidentally as one digs with a shovel in a garden, and the worm's response can be observed.
@@extremechimpoutno you can’t. Watch the original video. He makes a joke that he wouldn’t do that. Idk why this video cuts out the part where he said it was a joke
I read his 'Uncle Albert' children's books series on the theory of relativity when I was about 10, 11 maybe... the german translation to be precise. It was very interesting, entertaining and easy to understand. Funny to stumble upon him on TH-cam.
The material is fantastic for 2 reasons: first the narrator's voice is soft and gentle; great for putting your kids to sleep. And secondly, if you want to pay attention, this video is interesting and fascinating. It is edited and choppy, i suppose to make cut out any loud noises.
What is conscious of the problem consciousness poses? Maybe consciousness (as it is pure and absolutely neutral) does not pose any problem but brain or rather mind does?
This man caught my attention faster than any TH-camr has ever done. I was hooked in 15 seconds and I'm impressed! Update: This man kept me interested throughout the entire video which is amazing and rare now a days!
@@Danny_DavitoIt's thick linnen that has experienced wind thus creating a neutral fragrance, then when it's heated by sunlight it gets energized and the atoms in the linnen move faster therefore creating a new scent. Whitch is the smell of sun.
What a refreshing scientist!! So genuine, intelligent and humble. He’s a completely different person than the scientists we often get on mainstream media. I wonder how much Aristotle and Plato he’s read. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he read lots of their works.
I used to watch science documentaries late at night with my dad when i was a kid, i always tried so hard to not fall asleep but dozed off anyway This video brought up this fond memory so thank you
Omg lol thanks for the comment I’d only ever heard him talking about cutting it while sleeping so always thought he was doing it and was the only thing I didn’t like about the video Seeing this made me happy lol
58:14 I love his concise explanations. No wasting time or words. Just simple, straightforward, indisputable facts where demonstrations are abandoned before they even begin. Why waste time? Just in and out. Wham bam thank you mam, thats all she wrote goodnight and god bless. No over explaining or dumbing down.
He's using a Toshiba M55 laptop. It was my first and still have it. It got me my first job, helped me finish my degree. That's holding on to memories... consciously. I'm grateful to that machine. 🙏
Why can't all humans be as awesome as this guy? Can you imagine what a planet full of this chill, thoughtful dude would be like? You just KNOW that it would be a freaking utopia.
@@Puppy_Puppington I wish I could disagree. I have such ambivalent feelings about our species. There are individual people that are so amazing it's legitimateoy inspiring, yet they vast majority are just so, so lame. I think it was Nietzsche who said that humanity stands condemned "not for our sins, but for our meanness, even in sinning".
Lots of older people in their years are kinda like this guy lol. I have a lot of senior technicians at my job that are just a wealth of knowledge and clearly prioritize joy over conflict
I have fallen asleep no less than 20x to this video already. I can just let myself drift off because i know I can listen to it over and over. I bet this buys me 100 more sleeps. They do say you can learn while you sleep. Regardless, in a 100 sleeps from now, I will listen to it, in its entirety during the day and then find Part 2. Love him
This man is wonderful. If this is what it takes to get the masses in tune with the leading science around consciousness, and to demonstrate more fundamental critical thinking, then I'm all for it.
This is an incredible video for asmr - my only comment would be, instead of cutting parts that are loud, decrease the volume during those sections. It was a little jarring hearing words being cut off and thoughts not being completed.
Many years ago this guy had a series on faith vs science wear he would select a topic like, evolution or the anthropic principle and interview young adults about it. I used to put those vids in to help me sleep all the time. They weren't boring, they were nice videos and very intellectual
@@clintonlied I was wondering that since he mentioned Saint Augustine. There have been some pretty notable Catholics/priests in the history of science, and iirc one of them invented the scientific method.
I would say people who like unintentional asmr videos probably prefer it to be authentic and real (ie unedited) even if some parts do not directly themselves create asmr - the overall effect is better the more real it is and even if the voice is louder in some parts, in my experience, the asmr doesn’t go away. It would be better to hear the whole complete thing. He does have a lovely voice.
@@Goldenretriever-k8m No, he doesn't. At the end he shows the worm intact and says something to the effect that no worms were harmed in the making of this video.
it reminds me of a teacher like this man back in college in the morning. Was a pure somnolent dose of interesting facts that prolonged the dreams of before.
Years ago, I woke up to the television on the news channel reporting that Stephen hawking had passed. I didn’t quite know if I was dreaming or awake . When I realized I was awake, I had a terrible feeling and I didn’t want to get up. The fact that this video can help me go to sleep with good vibes space stuff, in contrast to my experience, makes me feel nice
Hi! We specifically edited this video for ASMR purposes, but we included the links of the original videos/playlist should you be interested in the original content. Cheers!
Im trying to fall asleep but these facts are blowing my mind. Im gonna call out of work so i can watch this till 6 am. Hopefully he teaches me how to go back in time 🙃
This is all extremely interesting, and explained in a simple and understandable matter. I do absolutely loathe the interruptions that cut away important stuff here and there
why did they cut the video when cutting the worm in half. on the full vid he didnt actually cut it, he actually says "you didnt actually think i was going to do that did you"
Interesting that you cut an earthworm in half. Studies on earthworm severing have produced some unexpected results. When you cut a worm in half the tail bit will grow a new head and the head bit will grow a new tail, thus giving you two new worms. The process is sensitive to electrical responses so you can cause a one headed bit of worm to grow another head ending up with 2 headed worms. Likewise you can end up with worms with two tails. The interesting part of this research is that if you cut the 2 headed worm in half the two halves also grow into two headed worms. Implying that this trait is passed on in just one generation. They have also taken worm cutting into zero gravity situations
@@ultravolt4555 I believe this is possible today but for specific types of tissue. You can also argue that Stem Cells can achieve this. Stem Cells are cells that havent 'decided' what function or type of cell they will become. They have genetically modified stem cells to get them to transform into skin cells. But to genetically produce a functioning heart? Or Liver? Not sure what the level of technology is in this area.
@@georgegray2712 ....even I was surprised at some of the behavioural data that emerged after worming my way through the scientific literature. The worm turned when I uncovered a rare publication early one morning. You know what they say about birds and getting up early in the morning dont you Mr Gray?
He doesn't actually cut the worm. In the full vid he stops just before. And says of course I'm not going to do that but say if I did it accidentally in the garden or something.
This video is literally A+ My brain loves the content and this man’s ability to teach but simultaneously enjoys the ASMR sound tones. I’m blissfully confused.
The fact that he pulled some worms out of a box in his desk raises so many questions I no longer care about space I want to know more about this magical box of worms
I learned from the video that our consciousness cannot be predicted absolutely from the sub-atomic level on out like an iteration in a sequence, because electrons are unpredictable. Having said that, I think the randomness at the sub-atomic level somehow producing measurable patterns we know as the laws of physics is a great irony. A creator source has to exist, right? I mean, what made matter? Zzzzz...
Usually i just put an asmr video to play on the background and concentrate on other stuff, this video is something i actually want to listen to so saved for later!
This video is so fire honestly. I needed some background talking white noise so i could focus on work and i started getting sleepy instead. Actually amazing stuff here. Its interesting and soothing all at the same time. Great stuff.

@@2ndcomingofFritz acute dyslexia? 😂
Great thing About unintentional asmr is it has a secondary educational effect. Thanks to this we can surprise people with random interesting facts 😀
Would the movie Space Odyssey 2001 be considered
"unintentional ASMR' ??
I love surprising people with random facts lol they think I'm really smart haha, what topics do you enjoy the most?
I grew up watching British documentaries. This helps me out a lot whenever I want to just sit down and relax, thank you.
This is right up my street as someone studying physics and philosophy. Excellent!
this man is a genius! Only geniuses can explain such deep science in such a simple, understandable and interesting way!
This is common knowledge if you're an inquisitive person
With how fast and crazy life feels it's videos like this that just slows things down in such a pleasant way.
Years ago, I woke up to the television on the news channel reporting that Stephen hawking had passed. I didn’t quite know if I was dreaming or awake . When I realized I was awake, I had a terrible feeling and I didn’t want to get up. The fact that this video can help me go to sleep with good vibes space stuff, in contrast to my experience, makes me feel nice
This is amazing not only it is super relaxing its very accurate I hate watching asmr videos where the facts are wrong, then its all I can think about.
Russell is a gem. Excellent production.
its a pity that the video skips during the interesting parts, making the meaning of what he is trying to say remain unresolved to the watcher. :(
Hi! We specifically edited this video for ASMR purposes, but we included the links of the original videos/playlist should you be interested in the original content. Cheers!
@@PureUnintentionalASMR Thank you for doing so(!)
@@PureUnintentionalASMR thank you for clearing that up. The conspiracy theorist in me was getting agitated.
@@LifeHacks-pu3ol what
@@Ben.N it just reminded me of a time when information wasn't so easily available.
Im trying to fall asleep but these facts are blowing my mind. Im gonna call out of work so i can watch this till 6 am. Hopefully he teaches me how to go back in time 🙃
Honestly I stayed awake waiting for more interesting facts, fantastic vid 😊
I love fact vids, both making and also watching. Space is one of my favourites along with geography, how about you?
What an interesting speaker!! He’s great
I agree, by the way I checked out your channel and liked it! Let's stay connected.
I could drink some tea and listen to this man the hole day... peaceful voice
This is all extremely interesting, and explained in a simple and understandable matter.
I do absolutely loathe the interruptions that cut away important stuff here and there
I love science and psychology! Right up my alley!!
why did they cut the video when cutting the worm in half. on the full vid he didnt actually cut it, he actually says "you didnt actually think i was going to do that did you"
Interesting that you cut an earthworm in half.
Studies on earthworm severing have produced some unexpected results.
When you cut a worm in half the tail bit will grow a new head and the head bit will grow a new tail, thus giving you two new worms.
The process is sensitive to electrical responses so you can cause a one headed bit of worm to grow another head ending up with 2 headed worms. Likewise you can end up with worms with two tails.
The interesting part of this research is that if you cut the 2 headed worm in half the two halves also grow into two headed worms. Implying that this trait is passed on in just one generation.
They have also taken worm cutting into zero gravity situations
Could we potentially find the gene that does this and essentially use it on human to regrow lets say limbs or is that pure science fiction
@@ultravolt4555 I believe this is possible today but for specific types of tissue.
You can also argue that Stem Cells can achieve this. Stem Cells are cells that havent 'decided' what function or type of cell they will become.
They have genetically modified stem cells to get them to transform into skin cells.
But to genetically produce a functioning heart? Or Liver? Not sure what the level of technology is in this area.
@@georgegray2712 ....even I was surprised at some of the behavioural data that emerged after worming my way through the scientific literature.
The worm turned when I uncovered a rare publication early one morning. You know what they say about birds and getting up early in the morning dont you Mr Gray?
I wonder how that old man would feel if someone cut him in half
He doesn't actually cut the worm. In the full vid he stops just before. And says of course I'm not going to do that but say if I did it accidentally in the garden or something.
This video is literally A+
My brain loves the content and this man’s ability to teach but simultaneously enjoys the ASMR sound tones. I’m blissfully confused.

Best summary of space facts I have ever watched. 👌 Great presentation! 💯💯💯
This is WONDERFUL, thank you so much!
I can't believe he's gone. So brilliant and yet so humble. Rest in peace sir.
I just found a video to put me in a deep sleep. His voice is so soothing and trustworthy!!❤❤
This is a very fascinating concept. I don't get the ASMR part of it, but it's nice and peaceful to listen to.
The fact that he pulled some worms out of a box in his desk raises so many questions I no longer care about space I want to know more about this magical box of worms
it's incredibly interesting. It doesn't make me sleepy, but an unstoppable curiosity to continue listening to him.
Great video!! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I learned from the video that our consciousness cannot be predicted absolutely from the sub-atomic level on out like an iteration in a sequence, because electrons are unpredictable. Having said that, I think the randomness at the sub-atomic level somehow producing measurable patterns we know as the laws of physics is a great irony. A creator source has to exist, right? I mean, what made matter? Zzzzz...
Usually i just put an asmr video to play on the background and concentrate on other stuff, this video is something i actually want to listen to so saved for later!
I didn't actually end up using this to sleep. It was so relaxing I wanted to stay awake for it.
I know what you mean. I just love learning new facts. I love making fact videos and watching them. I just love knowledge full stop lol.
His voice is so soothing
was sleepy, trying to get back to sleep, and now i am wide awake as he is so darned interesting lol
This video is so fire honestly. I needed some background talking white noise so i could focus on work and i started getting sleepy instead. Actually amazing stuff here. Its interesting and soothing all at the same time. Great stuff.
I love relaxing fact videos, both making and watching. I just love to learn lol what topics do you enjoy?
