  • Periodic Videos, Sixty Symbols, that's Physics and Chemistry down. Why don't the University of Nottingham make a Biology-related channel? Hahaha! Nah, it doesn't matter. Your videos are all great and I'm so thankful to you for opening up my eyes to how exciting chemistry really is. :D

  • LOL i'm Australian

  • FUCK YEAH AUSTRALIA REPRESENT

  • awesome collection of channels :) thanks for everything, sixty symbols, periodic videos and numberphile :O

  • @cataclysm True Scientists are born to argue. For example when Galileo argued with the christian. People must have the right to speech and to express their opinion. One cannot shut them up but one has the choice not to hear them.

  • @andreh4eva its stupid how we have kept the names and system from old chemists...

    H2O is water, glucose is sugar...

    i suppose you cant shake those terms from a society not interested in science : )

    peace

  • Australian here.....what am i doing?

  • @powermonkey500

    lol! I have no idea how you caught that. :) I wonder if it was, or just him moving across the chair?

  • @masterineverything While the US and a number IAEA participants have introduced regulations to lock thorium down (to prevent production of Uranium 233), it is used where heat resistance is necessary, as ThO and Th(NOv3)v4 are used in a number of applications, including the cloth-like mesh used for gas lamps (called mantles), which is where David Hahn got his from.

    He is an example of someone who only knows enough of the science to pose a danger in the misapplication alone.

  • Thorium is hard to get? Wasn't there a boy scout who got thorium for his backyard reactor? I also heard it's easier than uranium. I guess the regulations are stricter than uranium

  • 2:19 he farted.
