🔬 129 - How big are CELLS, VIRUSES, ATOMS?

[@tbjas]

Really nice video. Huge amount of effort went into making this i see. Even though you didn't use your microscope in the video, it was very interesting nonetheless. Thank you for never uploading a boring video. It's always informative, fun to watch and i always want to use my microscope after i'm done watching.

[@ajhproductions2347]

This is a seriously awesome video, I love your channel. Gives me something fun to do with my son. Cheers from Colorado!

[@donnalynn2]

Thank you! I had absolutely no idea just how small some of this stuff really was. Up to now I thought I was a relatively intelligent person but now I feel like an idiot. All the time you took with the print outs really made the difference!

[@philipbeauford]

The type of effort put in to these videos, for basically just the benefit of others, kids etc.. is exactly the type of ethic that needs to be demonstrated by most mature adults.. kudos my friend! Unselfish sharing of knowledge for benefit of everyone is tough to find bc some parrot is always trying to take credit somewhere for someone else’s hard work.

[@KaiTakApproach]

I just want to say thank you. Getting into the hobby, your channel is a gold mine and your enthusiasm is "infectious".

[@paulgibson3260]

Thank you Microbe Hunter, another great video!! Never before have I seen such a perfect explanation of scale. As ever it has been an education.

[@raswanthkrishna8492]

Thiss channel is underrated af

[@MattyExplore]

I love this video so much! Thank you for all of your hard work and for your knowledge and passion you share that inspires us all :)

[@robertbee9776]

This is one of your best videos, thank you.

[@CalvinHikes]

A lot of work was put into printing that stuff out and its appreciated.

[@zeus1141]

You know, this is very helpful. Not this video only, all your videos are a wealth of information. But this one helps me understand how small are things in comparison, and understand the limitations of my microscope, and WHY those limitations are there. It is not the same to observe small parts of animals, or bugs, than viruses. Makes it very real world and explainable.

[@bscher5003]

Another great lesson. I doubt that my wife would allow me to have a fly leg rug in our living room. Thanks for all of your videos. They are very inspiring. Greetings from Florida. Y'all stay well.

[@machlipatnammachlipatnam7418]

An important video for everybody to conscious about corona virus ...... And the way you took print of the leg and cut the prints to make whole figure analogue ....was a hard work with wisdom......it's an important video

[@atharva-upclosingnature2423]

Awesome compasrison. I loved the last part of your video(how you printed the images)

[@trex1704]

Wow, this is great. Thank you for all your efforts!

[@jimsgravtias]

Have to say i get a kick out of your videos, watch them with the kids as i got my eldest daughter a microscope for her last birthday. This gives a really cool perspective.

[@GodzillasDentist]

This was fantastic! Thank you for making such a wonderful demonstration.

[@barneyrubble5633]

Thank you for the time and effort you put into producing this video. Many thanks

[@edgeeffect]

I love the way you took a very long and very complicated philosophical discussion and reduced it all down to "a virus is not alive, OK". :)

[@thusyanthansukumaran3605]

Thank you for sparking in me an interest in microscopy. I have watched almost all of your videos and this one I am sharing on FB. Best wishes.

[@marcmarc172]

This is one of the best and most well prepared videos I've seen from Microbehunter. Nice work!!

[@yangxia3512]

Awesome video, goes great with our science class!

[@AshEivani]

Thank you very much for the time, energy and the materials you used to make such a beautiful informative piece of science to share with all the science-lovers. You and your channel is amazing. I watched all your videos. Regards from Melbourne

[@liviubarburo]

Wow! That's soo interesting! I love it. Now it's the first time I could really imagine how big a virus is or an atom really are. The analogy with the leg of fly scaled to 4 km it was gold. Thank you!

[@elizatown2168]

Great video, very well explained

[@charlotterhyne7608]

This is very helpful for our home school learning. Thank you for the effort that went into the video and for sharing!

[@conradbo1]

Thank you very much for posting this great video. Your explanation of scale is the best I have ever seen.

[@Cruz-tc6df]

Oh man when you dragged the fly leg across Manhattan, I bursted laughing. So funny to seeing the 4Km long fly leg would bring the. 😂😂😂 Great for putting things into perspective about the proportions of the size of the coronavirus . Great video!!

[@paulfarrell5935]

Outstanding video as always! My deepest thanks for all your hard work and for sharing your knowledge with us!

[@craigfourie3485]

Excellent idea to demonstrate the relative sizes. Us mycologists are not very happy skipping our domain!

[@AlfredPros]

This is cool! Printing all of that is really worth it!

[@javierbiaggi3072]

Excellent! In a public mall display is a mych needed public educational material. Congratulations for the idea.

[@bok..]

You make a very good science educator Oliver!

[@classica1fungus]

This video has helped me understand microscopic matter in relation to others more than any other video ive seen THANK YOU. i love your content you are a blessing to those of us non educated folks who happen to burn with curiosity.

[@edward_grabczewski]

When I worked at the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) in the UK, I visited their laboratory in Daresbury after they'd installed a new electron microscope. They were still testing it and I happened to see a TV screen with what looked like a bunch of grey table-tennis balls packed together in a regular pattern. I asked the technician what they were. She told me they were atoms. I came away somewhat dazed as I realised what I had just seen!

[@lunam7249]

Now find a big telescope and see the rings of Saturn....and you have completed a step on the ladder to become a wizard

[@theviruspresident2786]

Terrific video. Please keep up the great content.

[@alvaromp1106]

So muck work you took!!!! Thanks a lot, it was very educational.

[@leonaleona333]

Wow. what dedication! great work.

[@ravisalunke4889]

Extremely good video. Thank you

[@Mick_Holland]

You’re clearly dedicated to your craft, students, and us KZbin viewers. Thanks so much for putting in the time and effort to make this video which helps to make clear to all age groups and abilities just what is out there. Cheers 👍🏼

[@shahoganyknight2687]

Thank you so much ☺️🌺

[@tulipchu4852]

this is so impressive. so much effort there to make us having a clearer pictures of the lives around us

[@Tibith]

Thank you very much for such a great presentation. I now have a much more intuitive understanding of the scale of nature. Thank you!

[@MrRustyhearts]

Loved the video! Hats off for your effort!! please keep them coming...Cheers from INDIA

[@yareps]

Thanks for the hard work to- make this video! Also, your house is too clean and orderly :-)

[@ajhproductions2347]

I would be too if I knew what he does about the microscopic world lol!

[@ApteraEV2024]

@@ajhproductions2347 😂👍🏻

[@kashmirha]

Such a cool idea. I thought you are selling these too.

[@timanderson7055]

Just started dabbling with the microscope 🔬 and his channel is filled with great information love the channel

[@dashagudym3938]

Wow! This is very educational! I would love to see more of videos like this.

[@ronserrokpam904]

Best reallife size comparison ever shown

[@practicerepobarrie]

What a great demo, what a good idea to show the relation in perspective.

[@mikevanderman2727]

11:24 I like the "wife complaining about the waste of paper" jajajajajajajajajaja

[@Ashish-jn8hs]

I liked the last part most- the way you printed the housefly leg

[@mukialedori]

so cool! thanks for sharing

[@Robert-en6cs]

if I buy a microscope to primary make digital fotos, does a phototube 100:0/0:100 is better than a 50:0/0:50? I thougt as ... 100/0 lets more light passing through and taking pictures more easy. What should I know about this different types of phototubes?

[@robertYTB78g]

What a great video, I will continue to think about this to fix those sizes in my mind 10/10

[@ChrisNorris]

Great comparison! 🔎🔬🦠

[@Madcracka]

I found your video because I was looking for some information. You definitely have answered my question and put things in perspective. My next question is how large is the coronavirus compared to a woven thread in an n95 mask?

[@shelyseerb8165]

Excellent video. What a great idea for how to teach the scale to kids (or adults!). Also appreciated you showing the process of how you made everything at the end.

[@MICROWORLDofficial]

Excellent video! Really really interesting! And well done made!

[@BHFWaterloo]

My favourite so far. Thank you!

[@martinkostov3392]

Awesome comparison!

[@Simonjose7258]

So cool! My microscope is on it's way! I can't wait! ✌🏼❤👏🙏

[@Trylobyte]

What a brilliant idea! Really puts things into proportion in an understandable way. Laughed at the giant magnified fly leg stretching across town.. I'm glad I subscribed to your channel -thankyou

[@yakmicheal642]

I'm thinking of buying a microscope for a start. Just wondering which one to go for... Thanks for making such a great comparison video. I'm loving it.

[@eminvahid3976]

Great work.👍🏻

[@marcusdekker]

Great video, thanks. I actualy came to microscopy for i was looking for the proof of the existence of atoms, and i came to the Brownian motion, a motion that can be observed using a microscope....Nice that you added atoms (that we can not see even with a microscoop) in your presentation

[@michaeldestefano7671]

Great Video... exactly what I was looking for! So the fly leg would roughly need to stretch from LA to NY to have the atom be that size.

[@freshd2431]

Great idea, what a nice video! Dankeschön für den Aufwand :)

[@ellensorensen4446]

I really like your videos. This is so interesting to watch!

[@jillstrom]

Thank you sir, answered my question about seeing viruses. Subbed

[@MattSeremet]

Nice video! I always enjoy when ridiculous scales are put into a manageable perspective. Also, props for using microsoft ice! Such a nice and simple stitcher, been using it for many a year myself.

[@abdullahaltndal3597]

Hello, ı have been studying Veterinary Medicine in Turkey. I had imagine these objects myself because ı had not see your videos. This effort was very hard. :) Thank you

[@Togdan]

Very good to remember this theory! Thank you!

[@ApteraEV2024]

It’s actually Reality (not theory) that’s what actually the microscope allowed, (us to see reality). 😎👍🏻

[@olgagolovan8403]

The best representation of micro sizes! Also the best waste of paper :)

[@gjr72]

That was an awesome contribution to science. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge. How amazing is that!!

[@cpegorer]

Fantastic video! Thank you very much!

[@edward_grabczewski]

Your efforts are fully appreciated - even it your wife doesn't. My children will watch this during our Coronavirus isolation at home!

[@mikevanderman2727]

I really love that idea!!! I will start printing like crazy again jajajaja

[@glennk.7348]

Mind blowing!!! Thank you!!!

[@chaudry123]

Nice stuff. Love your curiosity

[@sciencewithmrscollins]

Nice job! My class enjoyed it.

[@donnacar62]

Thanks for being honest about viral size compared to bacteria. Post covid, I'm finding a LOT OF MISINFORMATION showing bacteria and virus germs almost close in size. I think that's to convince people that masks are woven tight enough to block viral germs as well as bacterium

[@shellbelz]

Loved watching this video, don't know why I haven't seen your channel until now. Wish I'd subbed ages ago lol

[@brandoncallin2382]

Accidentally happened on your film . Excellent ! Digressing , have you looked at electronic integrated circuits ? Eproms are a good place to start , as they have a quartz glass window for erasing data from the memory cells , & it's quite easy to view with a stereo 'scope . Other chips need to be carefully broken open . Some of the ceramic packages can be opened by holding one half in a vice , then seperating the top with an old wood chisel .

[@vaulthunter3056]

very cool! thank you.

[@roboosh]

fantastic. Very eloquently explained. I was worried that i had underplayed the size of viral cells in a recent conversation.. after this, I think I was far too cautious.

[@cedriclynch]

Another way you can visualise how small an atom is is to think of the radioactive source in a domestic smoke alarm. This is made of americium-241, whose atoms are much larger than most. There is only a tiny speck of it; it is expensive. The label on mine says its activity is 33 kilobecquerels, which means that 33000 atoms of it are popping each second. The bits that fly off them stick to any smoke particles that are present, causing them to be attracted to an electrode as a current that can be detected. Yet there are enough atoms in the tiny speck to last several tens of years at the rate of tens of thousands every second.

[@rychei5393]

This was brilliant!

[@raypunn]

Can you look at human skin ? Also is there a technique to see our nerve cells without injuring ourselves much ? Can you make a video about this

[@astrospeedcuber]

Wow, I finally can see the true size of atoms, thanks!

[@chris_topher1984]

this is an excellent video.

[@redf7209]

It occurs to me how useful it would be if slide covers could be laser engraved with a measuring scale. Lasers can be pretty precise when it comes to making microchips so it must be possible -even if the scale just consisted of a row of dots at known distance from each other.

[@leandrocermelli1540]

Buen trabajo! Gracias!!

[@apologeticswithvladimir]

Very informative, thank you.

[@quantummandavid]

lol now I know why the images take so long to load on your site. its because the image quality is amazing so much so you printed a fly in so much clarity in 1000x magnification. Bless you and thank you so much for putting all this work together helping us all understand the micro world. Question do you have a degree? I don't care if you do or not but I am curious, and low-key hoping you don't. You make learning fun and I think you should be a professor whether or not you have a degree as long as you are willing to have your class examined before actually giving lectures to students. But what im trying to say is I learned a lot from your videos and it was fun, college sucked and I wish I had professors who have real experience like you.

[@sohnish1986]

Splendid work and effort.

[@mchavez244]

,,"Wife complaining about the waste of paper" 😝😁🙏👌 thanks for your videos !!

[@GuitoWorks]

wow! you put a very very hardwork thank you

[@eddattube]

Ausgezeichnet erklärt vielen Dank!

[@genebowdish.mageniemagic]

I was so hoping you would compare the leg to the size of an atom, I will keep looking for you to do it, I wonder how many others want to see you do it too ?
