The universe might not be real but me watching this video 100 times before going to sleep is going to be very much real

Greetings bedtime algorithm crew. We meet again.

"You should not exist"

Finally something I can agree with

[mikenative]

Cannot begin to explain how much I love these videos. Please don’t ever stop making them, they are without a doubt some of the best physics programs around and put most big budget productions to shame. Honestly think your entire team deserves some kind of prestigious award.

As a young man who wound up in the trades mainly because in school I had large classes coupled with ADHD and teachers who didn’t take their job very serious I didn’t learn as much as I could have. I am very grateful and have a lot of respect for the teachers like you who can explain things for people like me who struggle with learning and understanding things . Thank you

[jeromebarry]

In the first 12 minutes, you've explained more clearly the deep meaning of energy and inertia than any of my 61 years of study and interest have experienced. Thank you.

"you should not exist" - My Father

[cher]

As someone who's had the great misfortune of not having had any training in physics I want to thank you so much for making these larger-than-life concepts available to people like me. If my mind should wander even for a minute, I have to rewind, lean forward and pay careful attention to your voice and the amazing images on the screen. Thank you for making this mind-blowing field (in reality, fields) available to me. You have the best channel covering these topics on all of YouTube. Congratulations and please keep up the great work. Bravo!

To give some sort of idea of how large the Penrose number is: If each digit of 10^10^123 were written out with a width of 3 mm (about average handwriting size), the length of this number would stretch approximately 3.17*10^104 light years. This length would wrap around the observable universe 3.41*10^93 times.

The mass of the ink would be 5.03x10^71 times greater than the mass of the Milky Way galaxy.

The volume of the ink required could fill up the observable universe approximately 4.21 x 10^31 times. This comparison underscores the sheer magnitude of the number. We truly should not exist. But with enough time, I guess anything is possible

You know, I did always wonder about the other question that is raised from asking "how did everything come from nothing?" Which is "how do we know there ever was 'nothing' to begin with?"

[K-Riz]

For this platform, this channel harbors some of the most intelligent discussion and debate on topics at hand. Much of it remaining civil amongst those with differing opinions. It's a real anomaly and greatly appreciated.

[Femaiden]

what i took out of this is that "Null Punk Zenergy" would make a great band name, or at least an album cover.

i jest.
I have watched this entire series multiple times. very informative, good for background listening as well.

[Trollo_Swaggins]

I’ve been suffering from some major medical complications as of late that make keeping my negative thoughts at bay extremely difficult.

These thought provoking videos are one of the rare things that help. Thank you for the effort you put into making them. I really appreciate it

[johndoeing]

These videos are so well made that even I, not even closely dealing with this subject and having the attention span of a zoomer, can spend an hour watching it no problem at all. Hats off to the team!

[IamKlaus]

The simple fact is, regardless of how we came to be here, we DO exist and we ALL live with death every single day. The question is, HOW are we going to live until we do die.

[jameshopkins]

Episode after episode in this series are amazing. I love the depth and the scholarship. The more the better.

[saladinbob]

I love this series. The BBC couldn't produce a documentary that could hold a candle to the quality of this. Complex concepts successfully broken down into easy to understand language.

[Alexadria]

As mentioned in the video, I would imagine the vacuum energy MOSTLY cancels itself out somehow, maybe by the virtual particle "ripples" constructively and destructively interfering, forming standing waves at certain frequency modes that may cause the outward pressure that is expanding the universe. Just a wild guess from an electrical engineer that is passionate about this stuff so take this with a giant grain of salt.
