The Elegant Universe -8

[TheChemtube]

Whatch 6:29 over and over

[goldenageism]

i wish science was easy like they made it in the videos

[eisstudentsasawat]

8:39 the most epic part of the theory!!!!

[eisstudentsasawat]

commercials FTW!

[grande1899]

skip to part 9

[SolielYT]

Skip to 5:00 if you want to skip the adds and intro.

[FlyWithCheese]

Were is Sheldon?



[cjrodrigs]

I have an idea ..Instead of going to war and start killing ourselves why don't get together and solve the greatest problem of humanity that doesn't involve killing ourselves

[piloooogen]

it starts at 5:00

[onekaraoke]

over 6 min of this video is trailer and ad I have to scroll through all of these to watch the actual program

[lambiainlolz]

TOO MANY ADDS!!!!!!!

[Izznogood63]

What if the big bang was just God letting out a fart?

[HawK047]

Theres a chance of your computer suddenly blowing up. Not much chance, but its there, so be carefull!

[viralengine908]

@HawK047 my computer did that last week.

[maxwellus000123]

i stil dont get what the law of 'everything' means. to me that is incredible vague. like, its the law of dogs or TV's?? what does everything mean?? AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!! THIS IS SOOOOO FRUSTRATING!!!

[InternetDarkLord]

@maxwellus000123 Everything means everything. Every existing object in the cosmos ever will, on some level, be a part of string theory.

[djfakt]

@maxwellus000123 ANOTHER imbecile...Ladies and gentlemen, your average schmo!

[Anthonyk312]

ok i don't know why but the first 15 seconds scared the hell out of me. That wasn't in the original, so why did you put it in there?

[triviummusician]

I love Brian Greene but he talks to us like we're 2 year olds... keeps reiterating the same concept over and over again.

[tanasaprano]

@triviummusician

torrent the TTC physics/cosmology/astronomy courses--the math is pretty light if nonexistant and some of the instructors are really good. I would have written Alex Filipenko and Rich Wolfson especially an email thanking them but I damn sure didn't pay for it so if anything I should be thanking whoever uploaded it to Demonoid.

[jsbreeding]

Half of the video is ads...you really need to edit this...

[mikekoz68]

There really should not have been an explosion noise when he first speaks of the big bang- things like that just continue to confuse people into thinking that it was like a bomb going off

[discronificator]

what the hell are those insane shapes and music at the begining of this episode. how did none of these commentors happen to notice that. i was up watching this at 3am on my tv through my stereo speakers, i was half dozing off and that scared the shit out of me. can someone please explain the first secondsv of this vid to me?

[purpleproductionftw]

@discronificator its god

[NewZealfighter]

"follow the path of the universe"

the only words,the only phase Iam able to see as the pages of the book flick by

[TrapnestShinigami]

Here's the theory of everything:

Everything appears and then disappears after some time.

The end :D

[AlwaysSunni]

The universe gets smaller if you go back in time...?

How does a universe that is infinite in size get smaller?

[tanasaprano]

@AlwaysSunni

infinite in expansion, and thats not a fact, tho the acceleration of our universe seems to point that way.... take a small balloon that will never pop, and keep blowing it up--eventually it will be huge. but regardless if its a foot across or a light year across(and getting bigger), you can always count backwards a finite amount of time it took to grow from empty to its current size

[AcePilot2009]

String theory at 5:00, I agree the ads are a total waste of time.

[ScuxItUp]

@AcePilot2009 @trudunneism without ads this video wouldn't be ;D

[howiehotdog]

thank you so much for putting this out there

[trudunneism]

They should have cut all the advertisements. It is driving me mad. Otherwise great video.

[PKDana]

So strings are made of energy, but what is energy made of? You can basically describe it as kinetic and potential, but pure energy?

[crazyharrydirtylarry]

$6 for a movie!!!! in what universe? How's that for paying attention

[02tnewton]

y nt jst edit the video to start at 5:00??? wud of saved alot of time watchin fukin ads

[fermerwuvu]

what makes them vibrate??

[snackynak]

All of your strings belong to me.

[cleverbtass]

at 1:15 and at 8:40 the same clip is shown with the conflicting traffic lights, except in the first one the voice in the background is a faint "what the hell are you doing" and the second one is an apparently overdubbed "what the heck are you doing". how's that for paying attention?

[shinWangXiao]

Hahah good catch!

[lumbug]

you know how they say that there are like

3 dimensional people(us)

who can go forward, back, left, right, up, down...

anyway

i think if you could see a black hole from every angle it would seem like a literal hole into or out of the universe

so this 4th dimension that we cant see..i think could be some sort of sense of in.

cause that is sort of a complicated way to think.

[NikiHunwick]

what is it with this adverts, it gives the intro to the program then to ads :S then it starts the program again, is this how American tv is, but yeah SKIP TO 5:00

THANKS MAN(below)

[bleach29461]

i concur

[wayztan]

Skip to 5:00

[breathless46]

Nice tip!

[spacetriplover]

Go to hell Satan!!!

[lumbug]

lol

[kaypee1985]

Well, this is not supposed to a be a class in Quantum Mechanics 721. or Theoretical Physics 612. This is supposed to be a documentary, and from an Subject Matter Expert's perspective, [most] documentaries are lame.

This is for the average Joe [of any nationality] to understand Physics.

[spacetriplover]

ok, so you like and i dont. think about it when host will repeat tha same sentence for 100 th time!

[kaypee1985]

I am not saying that I like this.

All I am saying is that different people have different receptivities for different subjects.

You might be bored by the host's repetition, but I can think of people who will be quickly overwhelmed if things aren't repeated.

Wisdom is about coming to terms with people of all caliber, intelligence levels, commitment levels etc. etc.

[Perrickan]

@spacetriplover He is repeating himself because it is a new episode to the last part, so people watching on TV can catch up without having seen the first one. Lots of TV shows have a quick repeat of what happened in the last episode.

[surgeyX]

@spacetriplover

It's called Popular Science for a reason -- this is not for Physics majors -- it's not supposed to be technical, it's supposed to be part entertainment and part education with simple analogies -- so that common people may get a glimpse of these very complicated theories. I for one enjoy this very much.

[ptwolfe99]

ok dude, so you do know that they are trying to make a black hole that will produce any material they wish, and it is all based on this. This is the most complicated thing that there is.

[spacetriplover]

this movie could be 15 min long all together. why there are all those repating it self animations? over and over again...

guy goes to cinema to talk about quars and srtings?!

please....

[Kristofftherussian]

Are you familiar with the discourse of educational aids? Or even just the concept of retention through repetition? Perhaps you should just enroll at MIT or Stanford and spare us your sob stories of how your day was wasted on hearing the same thing twice.

[DarkAnima696]

I like how they actually give character to this instead of presenting us with a bunch of random facts. It's not esoteric,which draws my attention.

[odelfin12]

OK, I live in a city like that, it's called Monterrey, in Mexico, lol! Here, red means green, yield means stop, speed bumps are for speeding up, rainy days are for speeding and driving bumper to bumper at high speed, signal lights are for others to speed up and block your way into the lane you're trying to move onto. And people look at you as if you were an alien bug for stopping at a stop sign in a street corner or allowing a pedestrian to cross in front of you in the middle parking lot.

[mephistophile33]

it annoys me that this keeps saying that things happen but makes no attempt to explain why.

[jsamiee]

alright already....wtf is string theory

[spacefrogg5]

look in physics class and you will see over 90% of the class asleep. so they made these films for the 90% and not the 10%.

like these theories, you left something out. which is the law of economics. make a video for the 10% you lose money, make it for the 90% and you will actually make something.

[lightingrings]

the single theory is the GOD

[rapidfire21]

I kinda hate the way they dramatise this so much. Its a scientific theory and should be explained with less computer generated explosions and over the top adjectives.

[Paradoxical003]

this is made for common people, not for scientists, so it has to be entertaining.

[Pawndurr]

skip to 5:00

[sacredcow024]

Thanks for saving me 5 minutes!

[linkinpark9sc]

BLARGHGHGHHHH!!!

[thelastnice1]

like whats channles dis?

[Kreepinhedfuk]

I can't believe the shit you Americans have to sit through, when watching TV...endless commercials & bullshit information....what a load of crap!

[g0ltes]

I like to skip the program and watch commercials.

[Clearhighlighter]

This series would good, up until NOW! Get back to the program.

[gloglee]

Well the even funnier thing is if it wasn't for these "nerds" Yo wouldn't have a Phone, Computer, Car, and house. so I would Stop being a bigot if i were you and acctually open a book.

[rustyshafthammer]

@gloglee you dont have to be a genius to build a house

[bok255]

Why do narrators have to sound so intense all the time? I love this series but the introduction voice is annoying and makes me laugh. As though I was in some action movie trailer and not a documentary on quantum physics.

[hamsteerio]

because if it didnt have that intro i wouldent be here watching it, i'd be sleeping

[MatrixOfDynamism]

they are ALL EXCITED thats why

[SouthSideProRider]

Wow, almost 5 minutes + the 2 from part 7 of advertising.

But this whole series is great !

[Parralyzed]

lol 8:40

[eXX0]

Start the movie at 5:00, that's where it finally starts.

[gramke]

thanks a lot for that. lol

[betabel78]

thanks a lot fuck the ads they aint selling me shit

[MGPAGE]

holy shit thats enough of the adverts!! In the uk there is nowhere near this amount of garbage!

[TheMac5010]

I bet you do get The history Channel, thats way more ads then say NOVA from PBS, PBS is just a few ads before and after a show.. Besides PBS is Public Broadcasting, meaning that viewers that like it, help to fund it for all... theres gotta be some recognition to those who help this program be made possible..

[pooldude12]

maan friggan comercialz all the time ....waste of time

[CriptaChronic]

everyone suports nova! support us for supporting nova!

[CadicusTheDamned]

Brian! No talking during the movie!

[Sonic765speed]

excellent!!

[ghostmen29]

the sound off by a little
