Massive particles telling a story does not make sense to me, re velocity of light. You would have to spell it out more than that as I'm sure you could. Then you would really have something good for the world - its very good already though. Also, speed of light means time and space are equals - why?
Great video, but not clear why c is the greatest speed possible. Another explanation has to do with Maxwells Theorems which make it impossible for people in different frames of reference with magnets and electrons to see each others em waves travelling along at zero relative velocity, or even travel along 'with' them - would result in absurdities.
The Maxwell equations give a solid reason why the speed of light is constant. It can be seen in the wave equations themselves. I am taking a different angle: what does the speed of light mean? Why is there a barrier? The absurdities you reference is one reason, a good reason. My additional reason is that traveling at the speed of light means time and space are equals. For things with mass, they have more time than space, massive particles can tell a story.
Liked your video. ever read Art & Physics by Leonard Shalin? I think that's his name. If not It's right up your alley. Your video is very easy to understand. Keep up the good work. I'm a English major and I even got it! I'm thinking about showing my 10-year-old daughter the video.
That is a good book. I didn't always agree with how he mapped art to specific ideas in physics, but that is because of my own research into the foundations of physics. It was fun to have the tension.

The unified field theory has been discovered!!! You can view it on my channel.

As a skeptic, I found none of the claims made in those videos had value.
