Conceptualizing Gravity as Curved Spacetime.

This is my video entry into the one-minute science explainer challenge. #VeritasiumContest

[krisboyce]

Man, that was an abrupt ending. I was really immersed in this video even at a minute long and I wanted more. You really did a fantastic job conveying a complicated subject in an easy to grasp manner. Don't stop making videos!

[SWDennis]

Wow, this is honestly the best video on gravity and spacetime I have seen so far.
I started watching all your videos, and they all explain every topic so great and easy to understand. Looks like you are becoming my favorite science channel. :D

[-w-.]

Hopefully, this gets some recognition for it is a great video.

[TurdFurgeson]

Never had it explained this way. Finally makes sense and it excites me.

[alich]

I don’t care if you win you won my Sub.

[malkaaz]

I have heard this "curve in space-time" thing being said so many times but never actually explained, and you did a very good job, thanks.

[JohnJ]

If the contest was to explain that in under a minute, you nailed it!!! We have a winner. 🖖

[rossmakibbin]

The way you put stuff breaks down the dams in my misunderstandings.

[absoluteasinine]

Such subtle and to the point explanation loved it !!

[kanikabansal]

It is just amazing ... no one else can make me understand it ....

TIME is the force that expands exponentially to exist, by spinning atoms — spin creates centrifugal force which naturally causes the atom to expand — big stuff like Earth expands faster than small stuff like me so i feel a push under my feet we named “gravity” — simple proof is that all objects regardless of mass “fall” at the same rate of speed; actually, the Earth is expanding up to meet the objects — thus TIME is the dark energy expanding the universe. Since TIME is omnidirectional, two objects in space have a shadow in time between them that causes an attraction which varies according to size, speed and distance; also called gravity — this shadow accumulates at the center of galaxies creating an a sense of TIME we call a black hole = simple, like all of creation.

Always been confused by this explanation of space time. This one minute video clarified years of confusion

[Marcosticks]

Great topic. In 1min you could only explain so much. I thought an even better illustration would be to drop from the 2D (two people walking on the surface of the Earth), to a 1D world as an analogy, instead of talking about the extra curved dimension we in a 3D world cannot easily conceive in our head. But then I clicked on your longer video on the same topic from a year ago, and that's exactly what you started with in that video. Cool :)

[andrewrichesson]

So force is just the manifestation of a higher dimension. That's mind blowing.

[xmedianx]

That is what we call in math "Riemannian geometry" and it's so complex but without it Einstein would not have been able to explain his general theory.

[rchave]

Looks good, and clearer than most! I still can't get my head around why everything is treated as permanently moving along a curved geodesic, at all times, despite being at rest in their own reference? If relativity has no fixed reference, what are the earth and apple moving relative to, to be able to converge?

Bravo, excellent!! 👏👏👏👏👏😎
0:41 I finally understand that fascinating idea, in a simple, visual and intuitive way.Thanks!👍

[aaa]

Thanks for this. I finally understood.

[MechanicalMooCow]

Damn... okay. I "get" space-time curvature, but never in such a perfectly concise way...

[AKfire]

I hope you win.. This video of yours and also your other videos are awesome..
