This is how you can get kids to be so engaged and maybe down the road to be future engineers :) And you get some good quality family time, loved this so much
My son yells at me from upstairs. "DAD, DAD! You won't believe this! Mark Rober is skipping rocks at Lake Cavanaugh!" My family has had a place on Lake Cavanaugh for over 50 years and not that far from where this video was shot. Our place is on South Shore Drive just across from the big island. We go there every July 3rd. My son has been a fan of yours since we were trying to gain an advantage at the Pinewood Derby three years ago. This video made my son's day. Keep up the good work.
That's funny, my dad used to own a place on South Shore Drive across from a big island until about 50 years ago when a man calling himself "Moderngraded" stole his land
We will definitely look for it next time we're there. My dad probably knows your family. He knows everybody. I'm sure your family is familiar with mine in one way. Every Fourth of July my cousin Brandon lights a cannon off every few hours or so. I swear it echoes all the way to Whitehorse Pass. Sorry about that. Anyway, my son is giddy over your comment. Thanks again.
Hahaha. Well Retrograded is where it's at now. We are obviously very popular with our two videos. But one of them is the best video on the Hoh Rainforest you will ever see. LOL.. My son's 4th grade research project.
Fun egg drop story since you mentioned it at the very end. My dad is a retired architect, and in college one of his engineering classes had an egg drop competition. Lightest structure to have an egg survive the drop wins, yadda yadda yadda. Well, my dad asked the professor where they were holding the competition and it turns out that it was from the roof of a single story building, throwing the eggs into a grassy lawn. He then asked the professor how many tries they got and he could try as many times as he wanted. So my dad bought two dozen eggs, went up to the roof, and started tossing. Eventually, one landed without breaking, which meant he won with a structure of zero weight. They changed the rules of the competition after that....
I'm impressed he is teaching his nephews and nieces to engineer. And making it fun at the same time. And there's the fact that he's doing the same thing for us on RUclips.
This makes me realise I should have choosen Engineering. I am a born Engineer and also smart enough to get into a good college. I usually do this testing and then finding the optimal performance and stick to it and never think about it for the rest of my life. But, Just because everyone was taking up Engineering in my country like a no brainer, i wanted to do something different and took up Geology and now i hate that subject.
Dude Mark Rober rock skip scince young and things like he can engineer can help you plus if you don't know how to rockskip than don't say without thinking
@@theaveragecomment1014 technically everyone in the world is related by a tiny bit of DNA. for example someone's great great uncle/grandpa may be someone else's great great uncle/grandpa DNA!! we're all related. ...hey, does this mean I can ask Bill for a few bucks, since we're probably distant cousins...?
ayush kumar i guess by that logic if a 20 year old non-experienced adult went up against an experienced 9 year old in a running competition the 20 year old would surely win
Can you imagine how advanced we would be if everyone had an uncle like this guy? I don't know if those kids are into engineering or not but without any doubt he inspires creativity even beyond his family.
What could be really admired in this video is your patience with children since you have managed to draw your attention to the scientific method, engineering, data science, where they have had a great time launching rocks, taking notes and numbers, tables, angles, and have participated in the recording of the video with their own smartphones. I wish we could all learn like this, to teach the new generation in a healthy way, transferring the learning process to the games, instead of just criticizing the way we think they miss the technology that is within their reach. In addition, this is filmed in an absolutely incredible environment, and teaching them the importance of respect for the environment in technological development in the process. I have learned a lot from this video. Thank you for sharing your inspiring work with us and with the children
I think what's even better about Mark building the robot is the fact that he didn't came with it already perfect, he allowed the kids to be a part of the trial and error stage, to experience what it's like to try out a bunch of variables, and then experience the immense happiness when one of them finally works. That alone would probably make me inclined to start doing my own projects.
I didn't notice your son the first time 😃. Can totally see what you were talking about in your more recent video but he seems to be handling the noise like a champ. Honestly, I use to consider you one of the most compassionate RUclipsrs I subscribed too but you continue to impress. All the best man...
@@twynics3958 better, tell them they had better be as cool as mark to their future nieces and nephews and watch them freak out xD. Best thing is seeing kids scared as they realize the future is a thing, and then meet every expectation and beyond thanks to what you've done. Keep it up Mark =)
I love the way you include the younger members of your family and extended family. So many children grow up without having that experience. In my own up bringing the children we’re always include in the learn experience. My dad and uncles being builders and engineers. From my uncle Rody, an engineer who worked on aspects of the Apollo capsules thought me to never give up.
What I said as well... It's not that it's illegal or even unsuspecting, generalizing, race or anything. I just honestly didn't expect it. Kudos to him and I applaud the man for staying in tip top shape and having time to be the brilliant man he is. This man has achieved more than thousands do combined in a lifetime so it bewildered me. #MarkRobersuperman
He actually appears all throughout the video a whole bunch of times, like at least 5 times I think. Watch it again. He's also in a few of his other vids too
You're a pretty cool uncle, teaching your niece and nephew (educating the younger generation) to think of new ways to solve problems and guiding then the steps on making a project. Very cool. I learned too from this video. Thank you
Mr. Rober as a family we are so grateful for fascinating and appropriate youtube content. Our children love it and learn from it and we adults love it too! Adelante
Honestly this video is great for me not because of the rock skipping but the way he got kids engaged in a seemingly stupid activity which is good to know for me because I have a stern but wild warrior type personality and I have trouble connecting with my nephew’s caring yet very attentive personality so this video showed as a model of how I can bond and keep my nephew entertained even though our brains are wired very differently... plus now I can get good at skipping rocks as a party trick lol
Ok let's be honest here... I'm come back to this video... after watching marks son video. It's serious awesome 🔥 Anyone else? 👍 Edit : watch full video Or else [LIKE VIDEO] 1:23
More than rock skipping robot i loved the way he made his nieces nd nephews work as a team. Each of them according to their age nd intellectual capability was helping the project. I remember this saying from LOTR, if u want to go fast go alone nd if u want to go far go together. Guy didn't just create scientific instrument, he passed on legacy.
Dirt/loam is a mix of rock, sand, clay and silt. Silt is mostly dead bacteria that have decomposed organic matter (leaves, sticks, poo, dead animals) I think sand and clay are similar and silica based, but clay is worn into a flatter shape which is why it is found by rivers. The river washed out the silt from the loam and wore the sand down. Mark is sort of right, but not quite at all. Loam without rocks, clay, and sand is called humus, but most people would still call it dirt. Dirt/Loam without silt is clay. And depending on where you get the dirt, usually its clay content would be pretty low and wouldn't really work for making any sort of pottery.
That sad moment when you wish you had the time to even travel half way across your own state to see cool things like this. One day... when college no longer calls ;-;

The dislikes are from soil scientists because you called clay wet dirt.
Umm.... Clay is wet dirt like soil is dead humans
Dirt/loam is a mix of rock, sand, clay and silt. Silt is mostly dead bacteria that have decomposed organic matter (leaves, sticks, poo, dead animals) I think sand and clay are similar and silica based, but clay is worn into a flatter shape which is why it is found by rivers. The river washed out the silt from the loam and wore the sand down. Mark is sort of right, but not quite at all. Loam without rocks, clay, and sand is called humus, but most people would still call it dirt. Dirt/Loam without silt is clay. And depending on where you get the dirt, usually its clay content would be pretty low and wouldn't really work for making any sort of pottery.
geology isn't a science
Samy Meftoul did I say geology or a geologist?
They didn't use wet dirt. they used CLAY DAD!
That's right...and when they ran out of clay, they used wet dirt.

If something wierd passes by me when I am on a water, I'll be convinced it's a stone skipped by Mark
@Dynamic [Josh] stop please just-
Lol look at 7:50 MARK you totally BLASTED your nephews arm worry a high five and sent him on a 20 G half rotation lol.
Gotta be one of the coolest guys ever.
He is, and you are probably too! :))
@@vareelaaa how do you know do you know Lincoln Mead???
@@vareelaaa aww that’s nice
@@seanmartin2508 yeah your right do you know Lincoln mead huh
Also you don't say that to someone you've never met
I somewhat envy the excitement and environment your family has. Truly seems quite nice.
Okay but if this man's contact isn't in any of these kids' phones as 'Cool Uncle Mark' than that is an actual war crime.
wait what about his children?
@@amesame5430 i dont think he has any
@@ryanxu9983 he does im pretty sure
@@amesame5430 oh
@Andrew Riela o
Okay let’s all be for real, the best music out of every video is always 2:54

THAT DARN NEIBOURRR
Oof! Right in the ganglion cyst
NoHaxjustWho, or possibly ex-neighbor...
I love that you're so committed to science. But you're probably the best uncle ever...
You know what i really like about this channel? This guys ALWAYS let everyone help him even the KIDS. Its show how humble this guys

"How to skip rocks"
Step 1: Make your own rocks
Mark: On my quest to become the favorite uncle
Me: who is he trying to compete against
I want to see Mark Rober (a former NASA engineer!) have a conversation with a Flat Earther. That’ll be fun
Teemo then if the flat earthier is too annoying the he will launch him to space
Eric Pham or skip
Lil Plum you mean he'll skip them to the sea? damn i would love to see that
I accept this challenge. Put him in contact with me.
Mr.Bread I am. Product of Eric Dubay.
At the end if you have subtitles on you unlock two things that mark learn when he was in china. A nice Easter egg for the deaf viewers.
this guy mixes science and wholesome and it's perfect
am I the only one who's surprised that there's actually a published paper about rock skipping?
Well i can't rock skip soooooooo😝
Lol im
Lol
1:01 Does Mark have a six-pack?
A 4 pack 4 squares
PLOT TWIST!
*those packs are actually paid actors*
SO BOTH SMART AND RIPPED
Kacy T lol
@@Eefit ya but a six pack isn't strength it's just low body fat
