  • Find it amusing how in a few videos you like to keep in the bits the professors ask you to edit out...

  • @fearghuskeeble: My favourite bits! Like to remind the viewers whose side I'm on! :)

    If you have a look on nottinghamscience that's where I also post a few extra science out-takes etc.

    The stuff with Pete and his balloon problems is my favourite.

  • man that was cool my university professor went over vectors but it wouldve been soo much better if they did that experiment.

  • @blackrecordzz or indeed normal UK measurements

  • "And again, it's a pretty stable sys..." THWACK! LOL ♥

  • She said mph. +1 for US customary measurements :)

  • squeak shudder squeak shudder 

  • use something another for writing please :)...the best is fix on board but the noise it terribly horrible

  • I like her. A lot.

  • The flexible ruler didn't work as well because the hammer, while exerting the same force, had more room to go because it managed to push the ruler out of the way instead of being stopped by it. Being a lever, it also brought both ends of the hammer (and, therefore, the center of mass) closer to the horizontal center, so it had less room to play with when it came to falling off of the table.
