Richard Feynman Interview #6

[stikmanaa]

...thanks for putting (keeping) these six together, Geoff! Enjoyed!

[rubentg1]

If u read a little the bible, doubting is one of the mayor sins, one of the disciples doubt and he had a great shame... u can see why, right? if u begin doubting everything crumbles, so... if u convince ppl that doubting is a sin... you retain ppl!

Religion is shameless

[UnholyMagpye]

Thanks for uploading those 6 videos, I really enjoyed them. =D

[hunchaz]

5:20 - 5:36 Why im an atheist

[GluttonForSex]

Two social scientists felt that Feynman knew far too much already.

[pustolov9]

@GluttonForSex 2 months since your comment and one more social scientist showed up :)

[chris69666]

Wow that was powerful what he said about really knowing something, makes me want to go and learn stuff.

[rarulis]

I wish feynman had been my father.

[mateipc]

@rarulis mine too ... I mean ... who doesn't :(

[frasermoo]

really enjoyed that. thanks for the upload.

[teddybeardustin]

I respect and admire this man so greatly for the fact that unlike so many others he has found that a certain embrace for confusion is not a detriment to an individual or to society but it is actually a great benefit.

How anybody can look at how humans with questions have shaped the world and still be so afraid of the things they don't know is astounding, as if our purpose was complicated.

Our present time was and still is the purpose of our ancestors and our possible future is our purpose now.

[Chill197]

All science students should look up to this man. He is a great example.

If there was tennents to science these would be them.

1) Always doubt.

2) Except uncertinty

3) Know your limits and try to exeed them

4) Remember there is no such thing as a perfect experiment.

5)learn the virtue of patience

6) Dont fudge results

Well it could go on

[Paperinjerate]

What a great man

[Mattprole]

Turn off the computer, put away your cellphone, forget your ipod and go to the library; find a secluded corner somewhere. It will be an amazing experience, I assure you.

[shredjoe1]

Yes totally agree, start with the Feynman lectures if you can find them incredible insight

[nevertheless123]

why the heck is this so blurry? copyright?

[Androly]

Thank you very much for posting this!!

[Anthony82M]

Feynman contra la mauvaise foi.

[geoffmthomas]

God, you're a right one you are! Indeed. Thank the lordy for google translate, eh?

[ajvila]

Genius

[MickShredLord]

Great stuff. Thanks for posting.

[AcidRain64]

Feynman. What a brilliant man - in every sense of the word.

[soccom8341576]

Doubting is an important part of life.

It is unfortunate that some of us are taught to get answers to everything, then be afraid that we could be wrong and be frightened by uncertainty.

[redryan20000]

@soccom8341576 how much should we doubt though? what level of balance is there?

[ozzy1248]

Excellent interview.

3:54

[garg654]

Thank you for posting this :)

[brallanbrallan]

that was one great interview...

[faaret]

Awesome interview! Very inspiring. At first I wrote a long post about all the stuff there is to be learned from this, but who am I to distill the inner beauty of Feynmans ideas into a comment on Youtube.. :) Think I'm gonna watch it all one more time instead.

[santiagueri]

Beautiful, thanks for posting. Someone like RF who has learned to enjoy the uncertainty of life radiates such peace and happiness no different than that of a person with a terminal disease that just accepts his condition and lives the best life he can, with love and enthusiasm but completely unattached to the out come. Amazing lesson.

[Norbeone]

Thanks you very much for posting. Feynman is such an inspiring character and his 'philosophies' of how one should view the world are ones that everyone should at least consider.

[nonphixional1]

THATS A TRUE SCIENTIFIC MIND SET

[0jumanji0]

Thanks for the whole series. I wish he were here among us.

[DrRandale]

What he says from 3:46Min is just such a honest clear description why religion can not be right or even a way to find truth.

[Clausfarre]

If only I could experience his enthusiasm for life and knowledge for just one day. What a guy. And what a great life he had.

[unmukt]

बहुत बढ़िया

[Dogsledfan]

Hindi script?

[unmukt]

Yes Hindi script and I have written 'very good'

[borris79]

thanks for the upload

[zloop]

thanks for uploading the interview, great stuff,,, what a guy

[TechState]

Awesome, it is such a shame he's not still with us. I'd have loved to be taught by him. Remarkable clarity of thought.

[baley7]

Thanks for sharing ^^ that was an amazing interview

[nicogum]

"Does it mean anything to ask a question?" Richard Feynman reminds me just how stupid I am. But I very much enjoy the process. I wish I could have met him.

Thanks for this video.

[Airborn14]

True

[davelister30]

This guy was a true genius, right up there with newton/einstein

[crashtv]

yes.

[crashtv]

and bigger wider thinking that none of us can truly understand. As he said, "I have a limited intelligence. I just used it in a particular direction."

I paraphrase.

[TheLepidopterist]

Wish they still used television to show people like Mr. Feynman. Thanks for posting this!

[crashtv]

I agree. Even BBC's 'Horizon' series (which this is) seems to be pitched at children now.m This wouldn't be on tv now because there are no explosions in it.

[TheLepidopterist]

Yeah, they'd get a drum and bass sound track, shift the camera twice every second, replace Mr. Feynman with a busty blonde, and make the whole thing look like an acid trip from hell. Never thought I'd get nostalgic for the eighties.

[crashtv]

don't forget a ticker tape runnuing across the bottom of the screen... "Feynman, office, Caltech, 15:36. Physicist and maths man..." haha

And they'd call the programme THE MATHMAKER.

Also top left it says... NEXT Little Britain

[jupiterjjrm]

I totally agree with you!! Science is superspecialised, there's a lot going on and not all of it is gold, and it is not in politicians' best interest to have us think by ourselves and have "pleasure in finding things out".

[foodope]

Thanks, great stuff.

[mahoran]

wonderful, wonderful vid. Thanks alot for sharing this!
