1. what if the surrounding explosions (this was a metaphor, I mean a [counter-]balancing mechanism) force the pencil stand on its tip? even if that is the case (which it is), still people live in "the Age of the People"
2. Hey! Good camera work too!
3. only string theory can be done in room and the results will be similar to getting magnetic monopoles .....bullshit...
4. I love this! I go to sleep listening to this for like a year. I love your physics Nima Arkani-Hamed! I even use your name in slither.io lol; I get to the top 10 to try to get your name out. You are our generation's Einstein, and you are just behind Leonard for the best living physicist!
5. The new field study of the-nE state at 273'15. Is that it is produced by the M.Q.D., not the Q.G.D.
   A inverted magnetic field state. Q.G.D. is the product. 
6. I'm bailing at 6:50 but I have to comment that, from a philosophical perspective, we are locked in a room where we can't directly observe the universe. (See epistomological skepticism) So we do have to ask the question Does QM and Relativity describe something that really exists? But that's not what this lecture is about.
7. Thank you Mr. Arkani-Hamed and Oxford University. I have learned & enjoyed.
8. The spin 2 is in black as if it was confirmed, but isn't it purely theoretical?
9. Reminds me of "Just Six Numers".
10. The comments here are idiotic. Great lecture.....
11. Yep, let's make our physicists robots who all talk and move the same. For our benefit. Fuck off, this dude doesn't even need to try and explain this to you, and all you can do is demand that he acts a certain way. Pathetic. Did you even hear any of the insanely amazing shit he was saying?
12. Excellent talk! As for the idiot who said he'll be put to death if he went to Iran, clearly he has no clue: http://theiranproject.com/blog/2013/11/03/is-nima-arkani-hamed-the-next-albert-einstein/
13. Grrr. Someone needs to nail his feet to the ground.
14. This is God speaking:  I fine tuned it to be just enough to tease and torment y'all.  Going back into hiding now.
15. It looks like this guy does a lot of teaching/presentations...
    
    So how hasn't he learned that saying uhhhh between uhhh every uhhh word is uhhhnoying? Isn't this one first things emphasized in public speaking classes?
    
    Interesting topic nonetheless
16. He should so shave his head
17. It would drive me mad if I had to work with this guy. He would have to be in an office in the deep basement.
18. N.Asadi: I can bet that if Nima Hamed would go to Iran  to give a speech, he would be put to death by the holy mullahs for not mentioning the prophet Muhammad!
