Note: accidentally switched Charm and Strange.
The original version, wobbliness and inaccuracies and all, is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kXdSm...
We now have found a Higgs-like particle.
It is a Boson, we're 5-sigma sure.
I read about it in an article,
Along with facts a little more obscure.
Now here's the mass of our beloved boson:
125.3 gigaelectronvolts,
133 times heavier than a proton.
It's like we're seeing the universe's nuts and bolts.
The standard model's other bosons are:
Photons, gluons, W, and Z.
These make the forces found in every star,
Plus maybe gravitons for gravity.
But what gives mass to heavy things like pigs?
It is our new discovery: the Higgs
-like particle.

One criticism: a large majority of our mass doesn't come from the higgs (see veritasium: /watch?v=Ztc6QPNUqls)

The silence scientific majority in our planet rejects the explanations about nature made in CERN ( and UK etc).My name is Constantinos Kyventidis [Born 23 September 1951 in Neo Petritsi/Serron /GRECE ] I am pensioner Mathematician (36 years teacher of mathematics in public classrooms) and author of 60 Uni-books in Maths(all sectors)
and 10 Lyzeum books (Maths) and 12 Research Books in Theoretical Physics (EXONIC THEORY). Over 500.000 scientists(Uni ,researchers,etc) today support my ideas.GREECE

Shut the fuck up already! Nobody cares about your batshit insane theories, which can be refuted by every real scientist after about 5min.

The nature is not CERN product and does not wait the "cravats of the pseudoscientists" to give...." mass in ...the fields etc" !!The made in UK/UN Edimbourgh ideas are pure ..pubbishes..!!The Sun in GREECE is very Strong and charges quickly our minds...!!!
Higgs-like are only the..stupid parrots(Papagalen) at CERN ..!
Nature is perfectly discribed in my books but with my New Maths which are generalisations of the old ones !! Aristotelis , Newton , Einstein and now ME....real scientific history !

In nature does NOT EXIST any kind of particles..!!Higgs-like are all the rubishes propagated from CERN etc..!!Without my New Mathematics and New Physics nobody can imagine and study the OPEN BOOK OF THE NATURE....!!!More than 500.000 scientists ,all around the worldd, have informed my SCIENTIFIC REVOLUTION IN MATHEMATICS AND PHYSICS ,GREECE 2005-2012 !To appear in English Language(2014)..EU/CORDIS etc two volumes one New Maths and the other New Physics..Wake up...all scientists of the World ..!

Every part of our universe has mass (and energy etc) from their existence and ..NOT as comming from else!!! There is NOT ANY PARTICLE in the Whole Universe ..according to the Open Book of the Nature i.e the Standard Model of the Nature..OPEN YOUR MINDS and eyes.!
SCIENTIFIC REVOLUTION IN MATHEMATICS AND PHYSICS , GREECE 2005-2012 !
New Mathematics and New Physics.! In nature there are only three ATOMS(not subdivided !!) the ANO ,the KATO and the OUDETERO of my EXONIC THEORY..etc
God is Great..!!

if gravity weren't here, heavy objects would float higher than light objects.

So how do particles get mass? It has to do with quantum gravity, which, if particles actually have unalterable angular momentum, fulfills it, and renders Higgs's boson obsolete.
