A UCLA Physics Professor bet me $10,000 that my video about going downwind faster than the wind was wrong.

If you ran evolution all over again, would you get humans? How repeatable is #evolution?

Everyone will say this craft breaks the laws of physics.

Not everything that is true can be proven. This discovery transformed infinity, changed the course of a world war and led to the modern computer

If there's a hotel with infinite rooms, could it ever be completely full? Could you run out of space to put everyone? The surprising answer is yes -- this is important to know if you're the manager of the Hilbert Hotel.

How does order spontaneously arise out of chaos?

This video is about stuff: light bulbs, printers, phones and why they aren't better.

For thousands of years, mathematicians were calculating Pi the obvious but numerically inefficient way. Then Newton came along and changed the game.

Robots of the future may be softer, squishier and bendier than robots today. This could make them ideal for space exploration. Check out http://kiwico.com//Veritasium50 for​ 50% off your first month of any subscription!

I got the chance to interview Bill Gates so I asked him: Will Covid-19 be the last pandemic? How does he deal with misinformation and conspiracy theories? And what is the next disaster?
