An Isotope of Truth

This is not 1Veritasium. This is 2Veritasium, the isotope where I can talk about anything that's going on, make announcements, not spend so much time editing or planning, respond to comments and/or questions. So if you want to stay in the loop, subscribe.

Yehey! I actually finished watching all of your videos in this channel. I started from the latest video, which is the Destruction Economy, up to this one. Good luck, more power, and God bless.

well you've got to spread the word then! I'd love to come to Iceland, and if you ever feel like doing icelandic subtitles I'd be happy to post them.

[Fawnko]

I dislike that this was posted on the 2nd Veritasium channel. Mainly because I didn't find this till today and I don't like missing out on Veritasium :P

[derek]

Yes - I will be in Norway in mid-August!

If 2veritasium is an isoptope of 1veritasium, it should have a different atom mass ;)

My girlfriend calls this channel "vera2sium"...

Veritasium Derek, i request you to make a video on batteries investigating questions on how batteries work.Like do batteries provide a shortcut to electrons from a higher potential region to a lower one, or does it push the electrons from a lower potential to a higher potential...quite confused!

Found out about your secret alter-ego channel today! Huzzah

[AinaweeUAE]

Do come to the Middle East too! Would love to see you here! Maybe you could do an experiment from the top of Burj Khalifa? :D

How does it feel to create a second channel for the purpose of science communication? Did you save this channel in hopes to pass the torch or for personal memory? As a student “scientist” myself, id love to chat!

veritasium2 is a molecule formed from 2 atoms of veritasium; 2veritasium is an atom of veritasium with 2 neutrons (different from the original atom)

[TheSteini]

I would love to, if I weren't so busy all the time. when I get some free time I'll think about it

[eugen]

the 12 (or other number) is written in the top left corner of the element's name. i tryed to paste an example, but it doesn't show it, so check wikipedia/wiki/ Carbon_13 where you can see that it's written 13C (with the "13" upper that the "C")

[zecharia]

i agree, the top left hand corner is the mass number and the left right hand number is the atomic number however that is not what you said.

Lol at the beginning the statue appears to be on Derek's head

[mountsss]

An isotope of truth. HAHAHAH GOOD ONE!

[UnpredictableSB]

He listen to Brady! He's a true Youtuber now.

[captainawsomeful]

So, if you're going to Norway... you will inform us on this channel? :D

[MrJamesBrunton]

Yeah but the point is the original channel is 1veritasium so the second channel makes most sense to be 2veritasium.

[TheSteini]

@2veritasium norway? what about Iceland? :D that would be awesome! even though I'm probably the only person of the 300.000 people who live here who knows who you are..
