What's your favourite Einstein quote?

[@moggie]

The world war 4 one.

[@djweebo]

"Mankind invented the atomic bomb, but no mouse in the world would ever construct a mousetrap." Is up there.

[@FarberBob678]

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."

[@ryansenft3315]

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

[@GoodPersonTestWebsite]

E = mc^2

[@fermintenava5911]

Einstein had also relatives in the German town Bad Buchau where his father came from. Albert's grand nephew Siegfried actually survived the holocaust and later became town mayor for a time.

[@lukecockburn1140]

I never knew that thanks for the comment that is interesting

[@twilliamspro]

Imagine being booked into your GP and being told "Dr Einstein will see you now

[@TheEnabledDisabled]

LOL

[@prapanthebachelorette6803]

😂😂😂

[@globetrekker86]

Einstein’s acknowledgment of his health state and the desire to “go elegantly” is incredibly profound and eerie

[@teesmacked1282]

my street name is Einstein if that counts

[@pelegsap]

I don't know if they are related, but in Israel there are several Einsteins, four of them famous: Arik (Arieh) Einstein - one of the most popular singers in the country's history, Meir Einstein - a sports broadcaster, Alona Einstein - a photographer, and Yaakov Einstein - a theater actor.

[@SantomPh]

Given that the surname is typical within Jewish German circles, they might not be related at all

[@weirdlanguageguy]

Theres also Alfred Einstein, a celebrated musicologist of Mozart

[@coolitten4937]

they are all unrelated to albert

[@cherylgarz4672]

Well he is a jew so maybe?

[@Kurtlane]

​@@weirdlanguageguy, Alfred Einstein is a distant cousin of Albert.

[@globetrekker86]

Albert Brooks was born Albert Einstein. Marty Funkhouser from Curb Your Enthusiasm was portrayed by the late Bob Einstein

[@degrassiglee2]

I'd love to see more videos like this with other famous people throughout history!

[@withonelook1985]

Einstein wasn't involved with the Manhattan Project. He did, however, write the letter to FDR that led to the formation of the development of the bomb.

[@camelopardalis84]

I just looked up Charly Einstein to see which hospital he works for and found his (German-language) twitter. At least I have very good reason to believe it is him. He posted my favourite Gary Larson cartoon on February 1st. If anyone has questions, just ask.

[@mokeballs6676]

I remember I was at work today tired as hell and thought to myself at one point how no one really cares about smart people anymore. You can name me the fastest, the strongest, the best basketballer, soccer player, tennis, golf, but you can't tell me who's the smartest in the world, let alone anyone smart to Einstein's level. After Hawkings died, there isn't really any geniuses left, and although it is inevitable that the future generations will eventually surpass us, geniuses like Da Venci and Einstein come by once a century.

[@AlabhyaVeerKumar]

Patiently waiting for the next gen.

[@thetrickster9885]

Only those people care who are in acedemia, in those days einstein and his peers were well known i think

[@fleshkeradventuresplus]

📍What I find weird is that Albert Einstein had longish hair and he was born during the Victorian era. I thought that men had short hair back then, right?

[@monteiro5306]

Awesome video.

[@firstname7606]

5:00 I think I heard an echo in you vid lol

[@NisansaDdS]

May be it was intentional. ... Because there were 2 bombs.

[@laser8389]

@@NisansaDdS I though the same thing ;)

[@darreljones8645]

Sorry, Patrick, but contrary to what many think, the famous equation "E=mc^2" has nothing to do with the theory of relativity. Instead, it tells us how much potential energy an object can produce (the "E" in the equation). The "m" represents the mass, while the "c" represents the speed of light (an often-used constant).

[@Jakeobfreedman]

No, he (and many) are right. It describes the relationship between energy and mass as E=mc^2 is a direct prediction from his theory of special relativity paper. As an object approaches c, the mass becomes infinite and so does the energy needed to move it. Meaning nothing with mass can travel faster than the speed of light

[@AlabhyaVeerKumar]

​@@Jakeobfreedmancame here to say this. Sorry, @darreljones8645. E=mc² has inherent links to Special Relativity.

[@doku367]

Ah physics, y'all fight more than astronomers and somehow still get something done.

[@vladimirkurtovic]

He had 2 sons with Mileva Marić. What happened with them, i don't know

[@greamespens1460]

I wonder if this is where Sheldon Cooper got the idea of a contract. Great video.

[@LuigiDuzIt]

Hey Patrick, I love these videos! Great work! You should do this type of video on Elvis Presley, I think you’ll be interested.

[@youtubejosephwm6699]

What Einstein said when he was a kid about his younger sister was funny "where was it's wheels"

[@ewestner]

That's so cool that one of his great-grandsons plays his violin! I wonder if it's a good instrument. (Yes, I'm a violinist.)

[@UlmerCubingandMore]

LONG LIVE ULM

[@GoodPersonTestWebsite]

lol love the drawing of him as a baby

[@edi9892]

Are there no other family branches left? That sounds like a bottleneck event...

[@nxls379]

great video, but why do you pronounce the names like that? 😅

[@DJPJ.]

So Albert Einstein's father didn't have any siblings or such bearing the name?

[@TheDeadmanTT]

I don't think I've ever heard how he died. Thanks!

[@ThomasAndRandomRobloxGames]

1:02 i thought you said “a father to his wives and a husband to his children

[@ARCtheCartoonMaster]

8:02 Ah speaking of Gilbert & Sullivan... (For those wondering, cousin marriage is proposed in one of their operas.)

[@TearMeOpenIBelieve]

I used to have to collect homeowner names /addresses for part of my job in CT, USA. I had a couple "Feinstein"s but no Einstein.

[@ARCtheCartoonMaster]

7:58 Ah, so basically, another Dr. Seuss/John Lennon type situation. Now I see why Arthur Sullivan never married.

[@johnvance882]

This is random and not related to Einstein, but could you do a video on the word vehicle? I was just thinking it’s such an odd word that somehow means car. Like what is a vehicle, is it just cars, does it include trucks, 18 wheelers, motorcycles, 4 wheelers, 3 wheelers? Is a bike or an airplane a vehicle???

[@sirk603]

Bikes and airplanes are vehicles

[@stephenolan5539]

It is a transportation machine.

[@clayton3590]

right here bro

[@kokomanation]

Actor Albert Brooks real name is Albert Einstein he was in the film Drive.

[@gonenroitman8579]

yes there are quit a few in israel with that surname

[@Illumisepoolist]

I like to go to Ulm someday.

[@yoavboaz1078]

One interesting Einstein I know is Arik Einstein who is a famous musician in Israel

[@Mario_Angel_Medina]

Sorry for focusing on something so dumb, but I found very funny that Thomas Einstein looks a little like John Cena. Especially because his father and grandfather look a lot like Albert Einsteinin those photos

[@JAGJERIC]

one stone? , dr, stone ?anime refference, co incidence ?

[@blackparadoxx9656]

You forgot to mention all the dogs and cats named Einstein. #EpicFail

[@mr.beepers2119]

My sister was on a soccer team of Einstein's grandniece (or great grandniece, not sure). FYI, she was very smart.

[@GoodPersonTestWebsite]

Definitely didn't know he married and had children.

[@GoodPersonTestWebsite]

Yikes.

[@Karman7]

2:02 Ah yes I love that my baby already has grey hair at the age of 0

[@tobygoodguy4032]

The dude needed a dab of Brylcreem.

[@redjirachi1]

I actually have the same birthday as Albert Einstein. And my mother had the same birthday as Walt Disney

lol in the Tardis

[@paulperlich]

Did you know Einstein in German and Yiddish is pronounced Ayn-shtayn .

[@davidhart5344]

Ulm is OP

[@coolitten4937]

funny story, I know the wife of einstein's grandson, and she's one of the smartest people I know, I've actually went on a couple of family trips where we stayed and slept at her house

_Are There Any Einsteins Left?_ Good Lord I hope not.

[@saladmus920]

Would have been cool if you had talked about the plagiarism claims against him

[@saladmus920]

Something along the lines of some or most of his theories were theories written in more obscure languages like dutch or something and he simply rewrote it as his own alongside other theories kind of like a compendium that cited nobody. I think also he was never good at math so some think his wife did that for him? This is all a vague recollection of a KZbin video I saw years ago, keep in mind

[@user-zz3sn8ky7z]

@@saladmus920 Einstein was a child prodigy, so he was definetly good at math. I don't know about the acussations, but it seems rather unlikely considering how revolutionary his findings were, somebody would have definetly noticed them even if they were written in dutch (which isn't even that obscure language as far as science is concerned). Also he regularly spoke to several other notable physicists, one of them would probably expose him if he had no clue what he was talking about

[@saladmus920]

@@user-zz3sn8ky7z dutch was just a random example. lame that you tried to have an argument without even trying to look anything up seeing as i also said i didnt look anything up. he was just super into books or something and plagiarized findings into a group of findings and maybe he drew a conclusion that they're all related but the point was he rode the backs of people for his famous debut into pop culture in a way that you or i could have easily done with no skill

[@gyuritill1367]

Why do you pronounce german names absolutely incorrectly? Especially that you make an effort to do so at other languages. I like your channel, but this annoys me very much, because I use german every day, altough it is not my native language. Please do more research, there are plenty of tools that can help with pronouncing (e.g. google translate)

[@xx_xxxxx_xx4800]

you have a habit of lowering your pitch at the end of every sentence. it's very distracting and makes it seem like everything is a news headline. i know you easily develop a kind of "tic" when you speak in certain contexts but please try not to.

[@andyt8370]

you can't even pronounce the name
