The British version of saying “I disagree and you’re wrong” is “that’s interesting” 😂

9:08 starts the most important 1 minute and 10 seconds of SmarterEveryDay humanity life lesson. I share this with my students every year so they get to hear it at least 3 times and hopefully we ingrain a life skill about perspective, rational thinking, humility, and empathy. I give Dustin a standing ovation on this one!

Destin, your quote at 10:00 really resonated with me:


"When I disagree with someone, or at least I think I disagree with someone, it is imperative that I stop -- I listen, and I don’t move on until I completely understand the other person’s perspective. Because it’s possible, you’ll find, you don’t actually disagree."


A great takeaway and a great quote for all of us! Thanks so much for being real and explaining how you felt! Yet another great video, well done!

"I just looked like an idiot." It takes strength to admit when you are wrong. I appreciate you putting it out there.

Ok now I want to know if this will do the same with lasers instead of streams of water. I assume a much greater rotation rate will be required.

"When i disagree with someone it is imperative that i stop, i listen and i don't move on until i completely understand the other persons perspective. Because its possible you'll find that you don't actually disagree"

How to achieve world piece in a nutshell.

I realy like how eventhough he didn't listen to him while performing the experiment, he took the time to reflect and admit that he was wrong.

The fact you flew to england to play with a sprinkler in someones garden😂

“When I disagree with someone, it is imperative that I stop, I listen, and I don’t move on until I completely understand the other person’s perspective.”

The experiment was awesome, but this profound insight at the end really hit home.
If anyone ever asks me what it means “to have character”, I think I’ll link them this video.

[randanman]

I like how you both don't care about who was wrong, its about discovery and learning.

*talks in alabama*

[manual]

When the two smartest kids in class have different answers.

[drandana]

You're a great roll model and your genuine conversation about vulnerable scientific conversation is spot on!

[chrsfincher]

Im going to agree i was excited for a new video and then let down with a 9 hour timer

[johnthomas]

Destin sneakily teaching everyone vector addition lol

[theflyingdutchman]

This is what I love about scientists: Admitting when you’re wrong and rejoice in finding out the truth.

Gosh, I love your channel! It's so fun to watch someone be enthusiastic about stuff! I really appreciate how you stop and address stuff like how you guys were agreeing but not. I appreciate your outlook on life and that you choose to share it with us, thanks.
