  • Is the cameraman drunk?

  • @sukkyatlife This is what Zach does when he's not high.

  • he reminds me of Zach Galifianakis

  • I like this version without the ambient soundtrack better. Funny to reflect on how stable and perfect the lab needs to be to observe something that happens like wild fire. What lies ahead in the next 10 years!

  • Particle wave detection possible?
