I was a taxi driver in Edinburgh and I picked up Mr Atiyah in my taxi.He was compelling to listen to.A wonderful gentleman as well.

[@ooos2989]

Rest in Peace, Sir Atiyah

[@cf7571]

This is two years later, but it's not "Sir Atiyah". Sir is part of his first name; so it's either Sir Michael or Professor Atiyah or Professor Sir Michael Atiyah, but saying "Sir Atiyah" is incorrect usage of British honorifics.

Can't imagine how you got this interview?!?!?

"I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me." - Sir Isaac Newton, FRS (1642 - 1727) Rest In Peace, Sir Michael.

Amen.

RIP Atiyah, thanks for all

[@TomRocksMaths]

Legend.

[@jimjim3979]

RIP professor you were amazing

[@TomRocksMaths]

He is sorely missed.

[@jimjim3979]

@@TomRocksMaths yeah he was a legend and his insatiable thirst for maths is so admirable. At 89 years old he was still dedicated in maths like a warrior that he almost solved arguably the most renowned and substantial unsolved problem. Thanks for the video man you are the real mvp

[@Bollibompa]

I'm not sure that I approve of putting a poor old man at the brink of death through dementia on display like this.

[@joantemin6903]

But, of course, I was very, very drunk.

[@Callyrace93]

Thank you for the interview with this great man. I`m intrigued what he said the first step would be..the one that counts and is the most dramatic and I`m curious why you would cut there. But maybe thats part of the first step, haha.

[@jadhabash3114]

Atiya is of the great scientist ever and real genious if he proved it or not it doesnt matter..

[@TomRocksMaths]

Exactly.

[@NoNTr1v1aL]

I love you Michael Atiyah!

[@TomRocksMaths]

You and me both.

[@Gintoki.Sakata918]

RIP, Sir Atiyah, You will be missed....

[@alexismandelias]

Subtitles. Please.

[@TomRocksMaths]

Should be there now :)

[@sunkhirous]

Atiyah must have read my paper since Todd function would be T = 1/lnP^2^n , P is prime and 1 = W/s , s is roots of zeta

[@ja9395]

I don't know where his paper is. He haven't convinced the community for the moment.

Tom Crawford - You should feel ashamed you played along with him. Sir Michael OBVIOUSLY has issues and you indulge him for personal benefit and upload it instead of being honest. You should feel very very ashamed of yourself.

[@thomasbrooklyn1820]

Besides the Guilt Trip you are OBVIOUSLY trying to employ: what game are you playing?

[@MuffinsAPlenty]

@@thomasbrooklyn1820 Sir Michael Atiyah was a giant of mathematics; however, many mathematicians believed his mental faculties were in decline in the last several years of his life. In order to avoid tarnishing his reputation, most professional mathematicians decided simply not to comment on Atiyah's alleged proof. They want him to be known for his excellent work, not for the wild and incorrect claims he made while his mind was declining.

[@georgec9428]

It's saddening that this pops up as one of the first videos when you search Atiyah on KZbin.

[@CombustibleL3mon]

It's shocking to me how Tom hasn't addressed this and Numberphile continues to platform him
