13:51 That joke/editing reminds me of idubz. They did hang out once, no?
Regardless, decent video. PBS Spacetime has a much more in-depth series on this if anyone wants to learn more. I think this is it: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsPUh22kYmNAmjsHke4pd8S9z6m_hVRur
Don't worry, they change the latino looking guy for an Aryan German later in the series.

I am not a big fan of this but I have to admit, for a guy who is simply recounting what we all know from high school physics, he is pretty entertaining.

I'll gladly take Vsauce over the likes of Bill Nye the Weimar Guy and Black Science Man. At least Michael is inspiring people to think about math and science without injecting some sort of political or social agenda.

Really good video. I love the band technique for finding straight lines. It makes intuitive send and you can actually use it to visualize straight lines in arbitrary surfaces.

Hey guys vsause here. I would like to talk to you about black holes. You see black holes can actually be used as euphemisms for asshole. Take your mums asshole for instance. It's gape reaches across the galaxies. Galaxies are actually a collection of a bunch of stars. Collection coming from Latin word collectus meaning "to collect". You know what else is fun to collect? Stamps. Originated in England they actually were first used in France by Napoleon to order mail brides from Russia. In Russian empire there are these things called babushkas. They are dolls with many layers, each containing a smaller version of itself. According to a new study, the universe could also be made up of such layers. In one layer I could be cock juggling clown having a cock for a penis and you could be straight. But how do we define straight? What Is a line in mathematics? A line goes on forever. Forever is a wonderful concept which is difficult to graps with out tiny brains. According to new research from neuroscience your brain is actually finite. But accoriding to an ancient Greek philosopher. If you were to spank me, you could never actually do it, since your hadn has to travel hakf the way to my voluptuous bottom, and then a fourth and an eight, and so on. Speaking of Greece did you know that they had a steady decline in culture and economy for the past few thousands years, culminating in the poverty that they live in now. Did you know that povery actually originated in the ancient Mesopotamia? It was invented by the aristocracy to keep the man down and impose obedience. Aristocracy did a lot of weird shit. Such has proclaiming themselves to be gods in ancient Egypt and in doing some force themselves to mate with each other, since they couldn't mate with normies, in doing so inventing incest. Inventing was invented in England during the industrial age, and it gave birth to the computers which run on Quantum Mechanics. Quantum luctuations are what gave birth to black holes.

Yeah, in the sixth grade, are cones essential to a high school curriculum? I wouldn't know, our math was shit.

As a fellow "science youtuber", I'm impressed by the amount of work that goes into those videos.

The editing and for those things is so much work. I mean on one hand it's evident, but you really I really only felt it when I started doing this shit myself. For example, the scene where he bounces the light ball vs. the steel ball. You can plan this, but it may take a few hours just to get those two fucking balls, find them, hopefully online, and have them be the same size. One such thing might seem like nothing, but it adds up. Same with animations, any space, bringing your equipment here and there. It's certainly more effort than the revenue you get from youtube - that alone can't be your motivation.
I now also notice that in tv series, when the director shows a scene for 2 seconds e.g. from the birds perspective. That's a whole lot of overhead for some details.
