In the 62 years I've been around I've had hundreds of teachers in my life. Some were great, some were good, some were decent, and some were terrible. Most were decent. My total exposure to Feynman is through RUclips videos but I can say without a doubt he is the best teacher I've ever had. During the 4 years I was in college, astronomy, math, and history were my favorite subjects. Am considering finding a way to relearn much of the math I've forgotten over the years just so I can understand more deeply some of the things Feynman talks about. Carl Sagan was another great teacher that I've learned much from. Garnered through the books he wrote and the appearances he made on numerous TV shows. Batman and Robin are supposedly the dynamic duo, but Feynman and Sagan are my dynamic duo. RIP to both of them.
The hiding of the logos has been going on for thousands of years and telling the truth will get you killed. When the wizard is handing out brains he gives the nod about universities of great thinkers(something is rotting).
I have a profound respect for this man. Not only is he incredibly smart, but more importantly he is able to communicate complex ideas in relatively simple terms. It seems as though it's so easy for highly intelligent people to make the listener feel stupid (ie: Neil DeGrasse Tyson answering questions from young students in a lecture). But with Feynman, it's almost as if he's encouraging you, on a personal level, to let your mind wander and start asking "why?" or "how?". Makes all the difference
indeed.. but.. I think they absolutely understood what the Spanish were up to... imagine.. they saved a few more... ;~}>>> they were not really primitive at all.. genocide reduced a civilization.. to primitive survival... I have been finding platinum and palladium in the mountains around my house in Arizona.. the history of platinum says the folks in Mexico and South America were using platinum.. but couldn't melt it... neither could the European folks.. I have a hard time in my laboratory.. natural platinum has double double covalent bonds... with palladium.. and.. I can't do it without a plasma torch
This guy had the authority of a white wizard when he spoke. He is not obstinate or foolish, you know he has the permission of his audience to teach them. That 'giving' with good reason is the true meaning of authority, no matter the field. Hmm. In these days and cultures, if you told somebody authority wasnt power and control, they might look at you like you were confused. Lol
He is wrong that the Mayans never used their calendars and math for prediction. That was the entire point. I love Feynman but this is a condescending view of the marvelous advancements of Mayan astronomy and mathematics. The whole point of tracking Venus and knowing how many days in a year and so forth is prediction. If an astrology of gods, good and bad omens, etc., were associated with the emergence of Venus or the disappearance of other planets and stars it was because it coincided with the changing of the seasons. And the ability to predict seasonal changes accurately let you know in advance when you need to plant crops, move livestock from one grazing area to another, harvest your crops, salt and preserve meats to prepare for winter, etc. It was absolutely a predictive science written in the sky and they figured it out. You have to give them credit for that. That is the "why".
He was big on not knowing why or how. He said when asked why magnets do what they do paraphrasing “ it’s the wrong question, if your mother slipped and broke her hip you can break it down but you’ll never know why it happened” magnetic attraction happens but we don’t know “ why”
The notable difference between looking and seeing, the cause-effect difference between continuous connection and snapshot connectivity, in various "mathematical" degrees.. fun to imagine, all ways.
Sam harris always ask his guest " if you could bring one person back from the dead and give them the benefit of a modern education who would you bring back?" Feynman, is the most common answer. This man is remarkable.
This is great - like getting dope slapped by your Jewish grandfather. The principle that he's dancing around in several of these videos is this - a "theory" is a ricipe, a list of steps that answers "how" something happened. It can't help with "why" questions. Those are the province of philosophy and religion.
Yeah, that's not the point he's making. Understanding the math (or some surface aspect) is pointless if you dont fully understand the phenomenon behind it. The mayans understood the rate at which venus appeared, and could predict it, but that didnt mean they understood it. Religion and philosophy dont help much here. Feynman is warning his students not to become 'educated mayan priests' by learning the equations and shortcuts, you need to forment a deeper understanding Its a theme he visits in many lectures and interviews. Going so far as to say he would ignore the 'names' of theories in favour of understanding the full principles behind them

How do you find curvature of space. Let's take a straight line of distance m. Now the maximum bend it can have is my/2π. So ratio is 1to 1/2π. Now what happens beyond that. You have to split space or curl up to a spiral. When something curls it is clustered space and matter condensation. Extreme may result in a dot. Dot is a number. What do you mean by bending just energy storage.
Michael Serebreny he is from far rockaway queens, not the bx - although maybe his family moved there from the bx tho as it was considered early suburbia.
I want to like Feynman (it's not Feyman), and I DO like him, but I just don't get why people think his lectures (judging from the ones I have seen on the internet) are so informative and clever. To me, his presentations seem disorganized, highly redundant, and the points he eventually makes a little trivial. Please don't get all in a huff and make nasty replies, but, from what I have seen, I don't get his near cult status. I would much rather watch videos of Neil deGrasse Tyson and Carl Sagan, who I think are much better at presenting complicated ideas in an understandable, informative, and entertaining way.
Why do those things predict accurately? Because the things being predicted are performing the same thing as the counting are doing, in the abstract way both are being examined. They are very different physical systems that achieve the same thing.
There are those who believe that life here began out there, far across the universe, with tribes of humans who may have been the forefathers of the Egyptians, or the Toltecs, or the Mayans. That they may have been the architects of the Great Pyramids, or the lost civilizations of Lemuria, or Atlantis. Some believe that there may yet be brothers of man, who even now fight to survive somewhere beyond the heavens.
@astroboomboy I'm not sure if that particular story is true (I wouldn't be surprised) - but a lot of the latter European conquests of older civilizations led to this sort of thing quite a lot. The Spanish were bad, but so were the Brits etc ... and a lot of knowledge from the Arabic world was lost during the crusades for similar reasons ... and in China as well ...
I wish this video hadn't ended here. What is the point Feynman is trying to make? That all our models are numbers and that we should look at the math rather than try to understand the underlying process?
This man is very smart, but I hope I am just missing the nuance or atleast that he skipped the nuance. For physics/science is not just about describing it also about finding the reason. That why we try to relate them to physical principles like how the movements and periods boil down to its essence into forces or gravity or space-time interactions. That is what Newton did when he tried to connect forces to acceleration etc. But here it seems like Feynman said on the end we don't care about the philosophical side or the why. It doesn't matter, it is useless. It all about describing and predicting. My old physics teacher once said that you can never disprove a good theory or prove it (what ever you prefer). Like how you can describe how an old thermometer (with He in it) works by physical and chemical properties (expansion and contraction of the fluid due to temperature) or you can describe it by saying inside the tube there lives a little monster that is scared of darkness and will cuddle up in darkness. But just because you can never prove which one is true, it is useful for extrapolating and describing possible new events.
Feynman would agree with you. What he is trying to explain here is the difference between a model of reality and reality itself. Just because you have a model that gives fantastic predictions doesn't necessarily mean you understand nature. From the perspective of physics the only thing that matters is that the theory makes the right predictions. Different models, however, gives the physicist different ways of thinking and reasoning so they are valuable in that sense. He said something like "suppose you had two different theories that both gave the right predictions. Which one is right? There is no way of telling, not by science. And it is usually possible to show ahead of time that the two theories are mathematically equivalent even though the character of the theories could be very different. But it is still useful to know both theories because a change in one theory that is very simple, would result in a complicated change in the other theory and that the two theories gives the scientist more ways of thinking about a problem and that every scientist worth his or her salt knows 3 or 4 theories for describing whatever phenomenon they are looking at at the time." Watch his 7th Cornell lecture, "Theory, Prediction, Observation" for a more detail on Feynman's philosophizing on science.
Jesus, of course, had amazing powers. He could fly and pick up really big rocks. He wore a special suit whilst performing miracles, but was an ordinary guy normally.
he knows that... fer sure and, these days, almost all Americans tell me they think math is hard because our wonderful "free" education >>> teaches Imperial system measurements.. from the Roman empire... imposed on the British who imposed them on us.. to collect taxes... from Roman numerals... with no zero... and.. ladies and gentlemen... it's absolutely impossible to do mathematics without a zero.. and that's why most Americans think math is hard... it's not just hard with no zero... it's impossible
Bruce Gelman - Oh go on! You must have something to say about rabbis! Like how they can look at a beautiful, innocent newborn baby boy, and think 'look at this marvellous, perfect little miracle from God!

Jesus said, "The Pharisees and the Scribes have taken the keys to acquaintance and hidden them. They have neither entered nor let those who want to enter enter." - Gospel of Thomas
It is destined for people to die once, and after this comes judgment Hebrews 9:27 NASB But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 NASB For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life. John 3:16 NASB Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Acts 2:38 NASB Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, unless someone is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. John 3:5 NASB For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons and daughters of God. Romans 8:14 NASB The one who believes in the Son has eternal life; but the one who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. John 3:36 NASB Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a person sows, this he will also reap. Galatians 6:7 NASB For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, Hebrews 10:26 NASB Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is narrow and the way is constricted that leads to life, and there are few who find it. Matthew 7:13-14 NASB THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND WHICH HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HUMAN HEART, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM. 1 Corinthians 2:9 NASB Therefore, do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised. Hebrews 10:35-36 NASB This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come. Matthew 24:14 NASB
thanks for that video link ;) I like Richard Feyman, he is a good teacher, however he is ignorant of many things still. King Richard Feynman is a noble and NOBEL fine Feyn man however he is NOT to be mistaken for a god or jesus. ;)
We are all a part of God, hence the encoded j with the h sound... He's us. Or in French, Je suis. The alchemical symbol for earth is a cross in a circle, and everything dies here. We all die on the cross, he's us, and if You haven't got that figured out, you are an angel of nothing. The 2 types of change in direction in geometry are arcs and angles... It's called allegory, and on both sides are lesser minds attempting to steer everyone from the middle path.
The method is valid, the theology that explains the method is invalid. The priests burned the books, not because they feared the method, but because they feared the explanation. To stand up today, and seriously declare that due to the Mayan religion's explanation you believe the world will end in December is as ridiculous as declaring that Pauls coded political letter, "Revelation," should be taken literally and the apocolypse is coming. Math is valid. Christ's teachings are valid. Magic no
His last words are noted as, "I'd hate to die twice. It's so boring." Eliminate God and life is boring and without real purpose. For he is the creator, revelation of life, purpose, joy and peace
christopher johnson He doesn't monitor thoughts. He's a heart monitor, but only for our own good. He was bored with life, which implies he didn't see purpose in living any longer. Only those who have come to understand this whole life is not about us getting money and praise from men. Rather, it is about us giving our life away for the purpose that is eternal and in no way boring, but exciting. I don't mean it will be exciting when i die, i'm excited about the great and awesome purpose and how powerful it is to feel the presence of his majesty.
+MKtheinstrumentalist No such thing as reincarnation. We have a spirit and a body now. At that time, only the spirit will remain. Imagine you were a king. Would you allow people to break your laws and disobey your commands? No. So, why do you expect God to? Expecting God to just allow criminals who break his laws into his kingdom is not logical. When someone with more power than you makes rules, you are expected to follow them on earth. Why do people expect any different from God?
+Jake Stone Finally something we can all agree on... (I'm no religion nut, quite the opposite, but I'm glad we can all come together on at least one thing.) XD
Imagine that there are probably people out there who are similarly brilliant, but did not pursue physics or science, and are assumed to be ordinary people, with maybe a few around them who suspect something extraordinary. Undiscovered genius. I think there are people like this in all areas of life, finding your optimal path in life is very difficult and many things have to come together. Thankfully they did for Feynman.
That is quite right.Genius or great talent is probably more common than one would imagine.But not all of these people can make it to the " top ". There are lots of "undiscovered" extraordinary people on this planet.Frustrating knowledge.....!
1:58 That part where he goes "wuddawuddawa", my science teacher in middle school did that exact same thing. And he always talked with that same genuine excitement. Man, he was cool.
Fortunately the Mayans never developed weapons of destruction, or atomic bombs to keep the peace, with the story of security. The Knowledge was transferred, today referred to as Top Secret. So ignorance prevail.
In the 62 years I've been around I've had hundreds of teachers in my life. Some were great, some were good, some were decent, and some were terrible. Most were decent. My total exposure to Feynman is through RUclips videos but I can say without a doubt he is the best teacher I've ever had.
During the 4 years I was in college, astronomy, math, and history were my favorite subjects. Am considering finding a way to relearn much of the math I've forgotten over the years just so I can understand more deeply some of the things Feynman talks about.

But it is still useful to know both theories because a change in one theory that is very simple, would result in a complicated change in the other theory and that the two theories gives the scientist more ways of thinking about a problem and that every scientist worth his or her salt knows 3 or 4 theories for describing whatever phenomenon they are looking at at the time." Watch his 7th Cornell lecture, "Theory, Prediction, Observation" for a more detail on Feynman's philosophizing on science.
Jesus, of course, had amazing powers. He could fly and pick up really big rocks.
He wore a special suit whilst performing miracles, but was an ordinary guy normally.
tedgrant2 wait, did you just whilst jesus?
Imagine our civilization reduced to the three books: Bible, Koran & Torah :/
Lol? And other funny stuff?!!
Feel the same
@gamernaveen Because he was a fucking genius.
Is the thing that he says about Mayans true? That is one of the most evil things I have ever heard...
Am I really supposed to answer this question?
WOW !!
Feynman Diagrams = the same thing as Mayan calendars... really
he knows that... fer sure
and, these days, almost all Americans tell me they think math is hard
because our wonderful "free" education >>> teaches Imperial system measurements.. from the Roman empire... imposed on the British who imposed them on us.. to collect taxes... from Roman numerals... with no zero... and.. ladies and gentlemen... it's absolutely impossible to do mathematics without a zero.. and that's why most Americans think math is hard... it's not just hard with no zero... it's impossible
Great clip but his name is misspelt in the title.
Einstein is backed i am watching you...
If you are going to be ripping off someone's video to increase your audience, at least get the name right.
Superior
"free" education, or "general" education.
Well, which one is it?
Any thinking person has no use for priests, rabbis, dont get me started...
Bruce Gelman - Oh go on! You must have something to say about rabbis! Like how they can look at a beautiful, innocent newborn baby boy, and think 'look at this marvellous, perfect little miracle from God! Oh, but wait, it's not quite perfect, God made a mistake on the end of the penis; we'd better just hack that bit off real quick'.
@@K1lostream actually fried foreskins are quite tasty🤪
@@K1lostream Critical thinking in short supply.Anyone can claim they are TEACHERS.Simply look at the glut of pundits and their syco(sicko)phants on youtube.
Bruce Gelman - Yeah, I know! Makes no odds to me, in the end it's just flip sides to the same coin - you have to have outsiders, or you can't be 'in'! I reckon the last thing in the world the religious actually want is to get everyone around to their way of thinking, or else they wouldn't be able to think of themselves as special!
@@K1lostream Riding that fine line between come and join us and we dont want you.
Hahahahahahahahahaha
The subtitles says penis instead of Venus.
Did he change the spelling of his name just for you? That's some string theory entanglement right there ✅️
네?
Those bastards! :(

Jesus said, "The Pharisees and the Scribes have taken the keys to acquaintance and hidden them. They have neither entered nor let those who want to enter enter." - Gospel of Thomas
You should update the title and spell his name correctly
It is destined for people to die once, and after this comes judgment

why are those things funny to you?
thanks for that video link ;)
I like Richard Feyman, he is a good teacher, however he is ignorant of many things still.
King Richard Feynman is a noble and NOBEL fine Feyn man however he is NOT to be mistaken for a god or jesus. ;)
Archangel Raphael what
We are all a part of God, hence the encoded j with the h sound... He's us. Or in French, Je suis. The alchemical symbol for earth is a cross in a circle, and everything dies here. We all die on the cross, he's us, and if You haven't got that figured out, you are an angel of nothing. The 2 types of change in direction in geometry are arcs and angles... It's called allegory, and on both sides are lesser minds attempting to steer everyone from the middle path.
The method is valid, the theology that explains the method is invalid. The priests burned the books, not because they feared the method, but because they feared the explanation. To stand up today, and seriously declare that due to the Mayan religion's explanation you believe the world will end in December is as ridiculous as declaring that Pauls coded political letter, "Revelation," should be taken literally and the apocolypse is coming. Math is valid. Christ's teachings are valid. Magic no
he just rambling nothing actionable here
His last words are noted as, "I'd hate to die twice. It's so boring." Eliminate God and life is boring and without real purpose. For he is the creator, revelation of life, purpose, joy and peace
christopher johnson He doesn't monitor thoughts. He's a heart monitor, but only for our own good. He was bored with life, which implies he didn't see purpose in living any longer. Only those who have come to understand this whole life is not about us getting money and praise from men. Rather, it is about us giving our life away for the purpose that is eternal and in no way boring, but exciting. I don't mean it will be exciting when i die, i'm excited about the great and awesome purpose and how powerful it is to feel the presence of his majesty.
+Jake Stone +christopher johnson I thought it was a jab at reincarnation, tbh...
+MKtheinstrumentalist that's pretty fair actually, didn't think about it in that light.
+MKtheinstrumentalist No such thing as reincarnation. We have a spirit and a body now. At that time, only the spirit will remain.
Imagine you were a king. Would you allow people to break your laws and disobey your commands? No. So, why do you expect God to?
Expecting God to just allow criminals who break his laws into his kingdom is not logical. When someone with more power than you makes rules, you are expected to follow them on earth. Why do people expect any different from God?
+Jake Stone Finally something we can all agree on...
(I'm no religion nut, quite the opposite, but I'm glad we can all come together on at least one thing.) XD
Buy wine? Counting? Functioning? Commerce? What? Mathematicians buying stuff? Tricks? Gimmicks? This dude is illiterate!
Imagine that there are probably people out there who are similarly brilliant, but did not pursue physics or science, and are assumed to be ordinary people, with maybe a few around them who suspect something extraordinary. Undiscovered genius. I think there are people like this in all areas of life, finding your optimal path in life is very difficult and many things have to come together. Thankfully they did for Feynman.
Infuriating
That is quite right.Genius or great talent is probably more common than one would imagine.But
not all of these people can make it to the " top ". There are lots of "undiscovered" extraordinary
people on this planet.Frustrating knowledge.....!
Yes , they do exist............
Can 😅
Richard Feynman was one of our greatest thinkers. He is sorely missed.
6:11
Feynman flips the bird at 500 year old spanish priests. :D
Three books left, and one of the three is "Fifty Shades of Grey."
We'd deserve to be forgotten.
Imagine how much knowledge they had in their libraries if out of thousands of books one was about science.
_”Flatter abs in 21 days”_
At least it would serve as a warning .
Imagine our civilization reduced to the Twilight novels.
That's so sad that so many books were burned
topdog i know its very unbelievable but sadly true
To the man who uploaded this: THANK YOU.
99% if mayans didnt go to school or do math
1:58 That part where he goes "wuddawuddawa", my science teacher in middle school did that exact same thing. And he always talked with that same genuine excitement.
Man, he was cool.
What a power! To deduce any scenario to its base elements.
Meanwhile, that mic : Am I a joke to you?
Tricky ways of doing something that would otherwise be laborious is a great way to describe my life as an installer.
This man is absolutely fascinating to listen to and I have no clue about science. His integrity and sincerity is magnetic.
Fortunately the Mayans never developed weapons of destruction, or atomic bombs to keep the peace, with the story of security. The Knowledge was transferred, today referred to as Top Secret. So ignorance prevail.
At least spell his name correctly.
I wish Richard Feynman were my professor :(
I simply wish he was still alive, we all had much to learn from him.
