Physicist Brian Greene talks about the genius of Einstein and explains his general theory of relativity.

I'm starting to believe that this einstein guy's pretty smart

[Sir.T]

When you think of it, it's so simple but to be the first person to think of it, it's so difficult.

Mass tells space how to curve.

Space tells mass how to move

[nomad]

That’s a heck of a visualization to explain the concept

[pdawgsterling]

That animation was highly informative.

Thank you!

[John.Doe.]

why didn't we had that visual representation in my school wtf

[mercytoday]

Best explanation ever! That visual was so elegant!

[quintonshabangu]

The crazy thing about this visualization is that it assumes that things fall down. It's like it uses gravity to explain gravity

[njenganyaga]

This is hands down one of the most informative shorts ever

[TheCursedHonestTruth]

So then WHY are they saying there's a GRAVITY PARTICLE??? If space is simply distorted, there's no need for a particle to convey gravity.

[lawdadz]

This Einstein dude should’ve been a scientist or something. So smart! 😮

[johnywhat]

I like how he worded that. Space communicates the force of gravity.

[christopherpeery]

Everyone else: whats between the earth and sun??!?

Einstein: space

Everyone else:😮

[soumyojitchakraborty]

I love it how this guy explains gravity using gravity. Gotta pitty Pythagoras

[gangamashal]

Ross: it's gravitational pull, Newton!
Phoebe : "I don't know, lately I get the feeling that I'm not so much being pulled down as I am being pushed."

[LiteShaper]

Although this a phenomenal insight (& mathematically accurate analogy) by Einstein - we do not yet know what the nature of space is or why or how gravity would distort it.

Newton- "I like big butts and i cannot lie. I cant write that tho. How about this? The greater the mass, greater the attraction."
