Legendary Physicist and Florida State Professor Paul Dirac

Paul A.M. Dirac was a giant of modern physics, one of the "founding fathers" of quantum mechanics. The video clip is from "Fifty Years of Florida State University", Part II.

Diac was like Jesus, only he was real.

@mccarthy155 just started reading a biography on Dirac called The Strangest Man, i recommend it friend

@nanotektor as a scientist, you should be skeptical of anything that doesnt have proof.

Dirac was the real "Sheldon Cooper"

@SpecterReflector You cannot asume/prove that Jesus did not exist. I'm a catholic (not a fundamentalist) and a scientist, and as a scientist I do believe that we must respect other's beliefs.

@goodsirknight Yea son! bought the book today after reading as much as I could on Iphone. Also "The quantum story" is good :)

Paul Adrien Maurice Dirac..The man who turned his thoughts into equations <3

@fntime explain why you believe this is true

[fntime]

@slovakmath You sir, are a dog! A dog with fleas. You are not half as smart as you believe. And if that's true then, you are delusional! You are exposed as a poser. You don't even like science, you like being considered a 'scientist'. You are more like a 'mark' at the carnival. You are a chump who pretends his 'character' is the equal of great men. If you will accept your very apparent inadequcies, you'll remove a delusion, and might even be happy! You are a loser!

@bmclaughlin01 sarcastic? I dont need to be and dont get mad, this is a simple discussion, no one is angry here. of course general relativity was a massive achievement, you missed my whole point

[bmclaughlin01]

@slovakmath - I'm sorry, you are wrong Slovakmath. No one can't doubt Einstein's contribution to Physics. Dirac, Feynman, Witten, etc have done amazing work but the IDEA of "general" relativity and of course the mathematics that followed is one of mankind's great achievements. You can reply with some sarcastic comment but that will only re-inforce your ignornance. Einstein, Dirac, Feynman and Witten are all giants.
