Time is Money

Or IS it?

Those overlays took longer than I initially expected them too.
Also, props to Ken Steacy for just having a plastic skeleton handy.

That was great. I loved the clock saying Hi Bradley! Pretty impressive overlays as well.

Wow. This is gonna take some time to sink in. In a good way. I do like the effects & their usage.



Wait, you know what LRR videos need? More Brad!! This video is a case in point.

It's Physics!

I wish I could explain away all my odd behaviour this way.

I watched this twice, the first time I was intrigued, the second time I found it hilarious! <3

Most favorite video yet.
I detected the "detective" vibe from Graham while he was explaining but that's all good...


Dear god... What if its true?!

Um... that was Nate...

Also by the looks of the preview pic, I guess that Nate didn't think of bringing a second suit?

The lighting on Graham really bothered and distracted me. But the rest was good.

Best use of skeleton award goes to... :)

I'm guessing those graphics were the issue that made the video tardy. But quality is worth the wait... and/or the money.

Alex being a Astrochronophalosogist? What has Physics done!

Graham's run at the end, down the stairs, just made me giggle.
Very enjoyable. It reminded me of Sesame Street, specifically when Kermit the Frog was doing the ABCs with a little girl who kept on adding "Cookie Monster" to the alphabet, with the letters illustrated on the screen between them...

Wait, here!

Yeah, for whatever reason, it reminded me of that. Perhaps I am just weird.

It was worth the wait.

Edit: Actually, THISis what it really made me think of, my brain just made me think the two were the same.

I KNOW that is Nate. I'm saying I want to see more Brad, as in Kirkland. This video even mentions a Bradley.

Still, props to Nate tho'. Don't get me wrong.

It made me all giggly and happy.

Physics!

And it is the first video I get to see with the counter at zero

First because for the last two weeks I've been going through five years worth of back catalog. I must thank Desert Bus for introducing me to LRR.

Skellington!!! One of my favourite things. For a second I was worried you guys broke into the UVic bone lab ;)

Awesome stuff. The talking was quick so I had to think fast to keep up, but I thought the effects. especially the graphs, were really well done. Especially the e-mc^2 being backwards when looking at Nate (and his little dog).

Also, you guys are waaaay to obsessed with cellphones.

Physics!

Like xkcd come to life. Great job guys!

I imagine you guys have very interesting conversations all the time. My friends and I think WE over-analyze stuff, but we're probably in the kiddie pool next to you guys.

So the answer of the age old question is: They Blend

Was the skull falling off intentionall?

At first I thought that physics would screw with Graham's character as well as in when he runs down the stairs at the end, he shows up running down the stairs on the left and back into frame. Thus having a remake of the line "Damn you Physics!" (It shoudl have been quantum physics I know, but like all remakes they remove something from the original and add some random explosions)

Still awesome work as usual

I feel if physics was not already spelt with a 'ph' it would have to be in this.

The pedantic particle astrophysicist would like to point out that the equivalence of mass and energy is a result of special relativity not general relativity.

More to come.

Actually i think my favorite part is the shot of graham, then nate holding the phone, then the skelton, arm dropping to its lap.

I am not sure if the comparison to xkcd is apt. Sure they are both doing physics based humor but in this video a bunch of pseudo physics and pseudo logic is applied to an idea while in xkcd the idea is developed far more logically.

Fourier transforming a cat this is not.
