Simple Relativity - Understanding Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity

Simple Relativity is a 2D short educational animation film. The film is an attempt to explain Albert Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity with a simpler visual representation and exciting animation. In a time when our day-to-day life is surrounded by technology, most people find it daunting to understand the science and its application. Simple Relativity is an attempt to excite the viewer about this complex phenomenon of Relativity so that they can approach this, and science in general, with a lot more curiosity rather than inhibition.

Great! Now I can defend my self from people saying "you're late again" by just telling them: "Late for you but not for me, for time is relative."

When you sit with a nice girl for 2 hours, it seems like 2 minutes.when you sit on a hot stove for 2 minutes it seems like 2hours, that's relativity

Imagine you’re travelling with Einstein
Me: what a honor

Brilliant. I'm 72 and for the first time I now understand why time gets slower the faster you go. It was your simple zig zag line, stretching as the space ship went faster, which explained it so well. Thanks a million. Tony

IF you can't explain well enough, means you don't understand it well - Einstein

[darkcylander]

its embarrassing, I've seen so many examples explaining this yet I still can't seem to wrap my head around it.

The part of theory that people rarely question is that it’s just a theory. What we know is merely a drop - what we don’t know is an ocean!

Successful people don't become that way overnight, what most people see at a glance wealth, a great career, purpose-is the result of hard work and hustle over time I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life.

Seriously when you understand this, it is like your brain just unlocked to another level!

How did Einstein understand this I always wonder. He was really fabulous.

[elbanussomaeb]

I recommend you watch it again without reading the comments...

[timmytenor]

The fact that anyone could even think of this is unreal. Einstein was on another level. I wonder when the next Einstein-like genius will emerge and break our understandings of the world again.

The narrator uses language that confuses the time dilation effect.

He says that for Einstein on the spaceship time slows down.

He could have been clearer. He should have said that time is slower on the spaceship as seen by us who remained behind.

For Einstein, and everyone else on the spaceship, time is not seen to slow at all.

I've been looking at numerous videos on this subject of time dilation and this is the best I have seen. Now I understand this concept quite well and can also appreciate it. Thanks.

Took me some time to understand this theory ; took me even longer to be able to explain it to someone else . This video is helpful .

The piano at the end just spiced everything up. Made me feel like i discovered the theory of relativity.

I like how the triangle got to a straigt line and the light dot was slowing down... it explained itself well. Thanks :)

[impactodelsurenterprise]

That light bouncing clock analogy is the best.

[nihalMaTh]

bro you are the first person to make this concept so crisp and clear to others
