  • he answers questions as if he's been asked that question a millions time before, so structured, concise and intuitive. Not only an exceptional scientist, but also an extra-ordinary teacher, a very rare combination

  • I wave at passing particles. Bam son! Where's my Nobel Prize :P?

  • Lousy athiest.

  • @Pugophile maybe they are... but dun flatter urself that u are smarter....

  • The first person to ever make quantum physics seem rational.

  • @mehdiuk Very incredibly true.

  • The best explanation of this I've ever heard.

  • if the audience didn't understand after this lecture.

    Feynman would send Luca brasi

  • "We calculate as if the light is a wave, but we interpret the intensity of the wave, what used to be called the energy density of the wave, not as the intensity of the light, but as the probability of finding a photon.

    It's that duality of interpretation that produces the difficulty."

  • ok?
