What If Everything You Knew About the Universe Is Wrong?

13.8 billion years ago, the entire Universe emerged from one single point in space. This theory is known as the Big Bang. And it’s the most widely accepted story of the creation of our Universe. But what if we have this all wrong? What if the Universe didn't start like this? What else were we wrong about?

What If is a mini-documentary web series that takes you on an epic journey through hypothetical worlds and possibilities. Join us on an imaginary adventure through time, space and chance while we (hopefully) boil down complex subjects in a fun and entertaining way.

I can never think about the universe, time and space without having an existential crisis

[jamiegriffith]

I believe everything about the universe and space/time is far more advanced and complex than any human in history could possibly ever begin to fathom.

I like watching videos like this. These seems to make my problems in life seem miniscule for some time .

Quantum mechanics says this: if no one is observing a particle, it can be in any position anywhere in the universe. But if you observe it again, the particle is much more likely to be where it was, if it has no momentum. So yes, it can disappear from your view, but the probability of this occurring is extremely slim. The atom in galaxies, stars and every object behaves like this, according to this theory and tons of experiments

hi, just want to let u know that your chanel helped me a lot when i was going thru depression. I would literally play the videos all day and night( helps me sleep - not in a bad way). So yeah, just letting you know..thanks!

"We've never had any hard evidence to confirm our theories" is the most compelling quote in this video. Everything we've come to believe about the universe is theoretical from the Big Bang to dark matter and dark energy to black holes. The assertion that objects in space are moving away from us is also purely theoretical and challenged. There are no ways to prove any of these things. They are imaginative but purely speculative, regardless how many "experts" like us to think otherwise.

Out of all these, the fact that human brain can imagine such insane theories and thoughts is just Awesome and insanely crazy how human brain works.

[TheLorlan]

I just got an existential crisis thinking about what would the whole universe mean without any living being in it.

[neopagan]

Moral of the story being, "Always question what you think you know." After all, there's always a chance that What we think we know could be proven wrong by new scientific discoveries. I've always believed that both the universe and the four dimensional reality paradigm we reside in are far more complex, wonderous and mysterious than any of us could have ever imagined. At this point, there are probably members of the scientific community who could be getting tired of having to go back to the drawing board when it comes to scientific theory and believe that they should just throw the drawing board itself right out the window. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

According to the _Allies of Humanity briefings_ and _Life in the Universe_ by Marshall Vian Summers, our local universe is densely populated and highly technological. It's an extremely competitive environment emphasizing resource acquisition, deception, manipulation, and power in the mental environment. I highly recommend checking out these two free books.

We will constantly come up with new theories but will continue to learn more about our universe as time goes on.

[MrImmortal-cr]

What i believe is that, humans never meant to know the actual mystery of the universe 💀

[JjSen]

If the universe isn't real, then I guess it's safe to assume that we really are living in a simulation like the matrix.

[richardblachard]

Ah science, a realm that can scare you with endless possibilities and reasons behind anything and everything.

Every time What If uploads, I immediately click. This is one of the best channels ever!

If technology advanced far enough, its possible during the "big cruch" we could divide the matter in the universe into two seprate masses, forcing them to orbit each other. There could be civilizations/matrioska brains in both masses continually using matter and transferring energy back and forth. As long as they did not combine and continued orbiting, you could delay the Big Crunch nearly indefinitely

[cosmoscaper]

The universe is full of mysteries and wonders yet to be discovered. It's only when we question everything we know that we open ourselves up to the possibility of truly understanding the universe and our place in it

[johnrazvaliaeff]

It's funny how when humans don't understand something they either make up some theory or just say god created it. Its ok to say, "I don't know".

[M_Kru]

The big crunch would be interesting... before things get too hectic there would be a sweet spot in the timeline where we could see way more planets & galaxies within traveling distance.... before things get uncomfortably close 😅

[nikkraj]

I'm a big fan from India..What if we are living this life in our own dreams.sometimes I'm afraid of this.
