BBC Horizon/PBS Nova THE PLEASURE OF FINDING THINGS OUT, Richard Feynman Interview (1981)

Fifty minutes of PURE Feynman! This is the original Horizon Nova interview - essential for any Feynman fan... and for everyone else too!

"I'm an explorer, OK I like to find out!" Richard Feynman, physicist and adventurer extraordinary...

THE PLEASURE OF FINDING THINGS OUT was filmed in 1981 and will delight and inspire anyone who would like to share something of the joys of scientific discovery. Feynman is a master storyteller, and his tales -- about childhood, Los Alamos, or how he won a Nobel Prize -- are a vivid and entertaining insight into the mind of a great scientist at work and play.

"The 1981 Feynman Horizon is the best science program I have ever seen. This is not just my opinion - it is also the opinion of many of the best scientists that I know who have seen the program... It should be mandatory viewing for all students whether they be science or arts students."
- Professor Sir Harry Kroto, Nobel Prize for Chemistry

  • @Dathinkingman accept the fact that the lord jesus christ made Feynman a genius disbeliever, and learn from him.

  • based on the test they're apparantly doing on the creation of universes or something along the lines* for why finding out nature of reality may now be possible

  • based on the test they're apparantly doing on the creation of universes or something along the lines. Oh yeees and he goes against route memorisation... like that bird he was talking about. I don't even know what kinda bird the exact name was but he was pretty much saying that the name dosnt really mean anything... It's the concept behind it. The study of linguistics reinforces that theory.

  • Thanks for uploading... My takeaway from this video was that feynman was born an average guy that had an extraordinary father.

    Develop a passion for what you are doing

    you're gonna need maths for physics

    prestigious societies do pretty much nothing, other than decide who gets in. (Can be argued under some circumstances...)

    if u think that physics is going to give you the answers to the nature of reality then you are ignorant, his was made in 1981 so that's arguable.
