[@Jerepasaurus]

Stephen's expressions are truly the best part of this. His subtle sly grins, the unimpressed glares and eyerolling made this even more fantastic. x'D

[@geekvasion7388]

He can't use his hand so he talks with his eyes. I want that PC.

[@geekvasion7388]

Either that or he is the true MVP

[@gore14]

***** You are obsolete.

[@mully107]

Jayman2800 Is the end of your post implying that the reason you have no friends is that you spend all of your time learning? Like you just spend so much time learning about different things, that you have no time to make friends? I think it is hilarious that you try to come off as so smart, you try to explain his computer system in a way that implies you understand the technology, like you are knowledgeable on the topic and you were just taking your time to explain your knowledge, and then to end your post you say "this is the reason I have no friends". Again this could only be you trying to imply that because you spend so much time learning this kind of stuff, you cant have friends. It actually is not funny that you try to come off as smart, its just sad; what is hilarious is how hard you fail at it. I am not going to point out all of the ways you revealed yourself as an idiot, but I will point on the one I find freaking hilarious since you did it 3 freaking times. "infra red" HAHAHAH peace out dude. Oh P.S If you are like 12 years old, I apologize, but stop trying to be someone else on the internet, be yourself dude.

[@PostMesmeric]

It sure is comforting knowing that one of the smartest men alive can have a real sense of humor.

[@saviorself1164]

I liked that as well. I had never seen him rip on anyone before. It was a unique interview because every other time I had ever seen him interviewed, it was very serious but also informative. It was nice to see him from a different perspective

[@coosoorlog]

I think Hawkins was also quite funny there

[@Battusai1984]

Well he has a figurine of himself as a simpsons character on his desk and i'm fairly sure all of his involvement with matt groening over the years has been, perhaps not in person, but definitely proof read and approved. Considering the amount of "I thought of it first" cockyness with which he is usually portrait, i always kinda assumed he was an ok dude to grab a drink with.

[@14catorce]

the interview is obviously scripted, but yeah, he seems to have sense of humor, and even more important, he doesn't take himself seriously. Surprisingly humble, for such a recognised person.

[@InorganicVegan]

When he said his "maybe one where you are funny" comment, I would've said something very mean. "Maybe there's one where you can get up and say that to my face."

[@RickyTisms]

"Why would I not be excited about fighting a robot?" "You would lose"

Syberiummm ugh why does the new genius have to have a capitalism fetish? I'm sorry Stephen Hawking for this disgrace on your legacy to even have this association

[@Mwstmrlnd]

He wasn’t even the best scientist in his field, just the most famous. He was a legend, don’t get me wrong, but there are people doing similar groundbreaking work who are alive today, you just don’t know their names because they don’t have the same charm that Hawking does. Rest easy, my dudes

[@Snide01]

If you believe that Stephen was anything more than a propaganda puppet then we are screwed.. How was the guy speaking so quickly by wiggling a finger? How did he survive decades longer than any other ALS victims? Why is the rest of humanity including other ALS victims being deprived of this amazing and life changing finger wiggling communication technology? How is it that the smartest man in the world amounts to a retarded guy in a wheelchair with foam running down his face? Are people really this stupid???

[@Snide01]

@Fag Dice 1) lack of measurable curvature, 2) objects being seen past the curve calculations all over the world, 3) the nature of water always seeks and maintains its own level, 4) periscopes being able to see too far, 5) reflections of the moon or sun on water are never curved, 6) mass attracting mass not being able to be recreated, 7) Gravity is still theory, 8) lack of detectable spin, 9) the impossibility of flight on a spinning ball (no adjustments for constant ground speed changes or ground spin direction changes or curvature), 10) lack of flights over Antarctica, 11) lack of north to south circumnavigation, 12) lack of the ability to track planes over southern hemisphere oceans, 13) The Antarctic Treaty, 14) Operation High Jump, 15) Operation Fish Bowl, 16) Leaked Footage of Astronauts faking a spherical Earth, 17) The space shuttle uses a rocket engine to land when it should be gliding, 18) Neil Armstrong's Speech, "There are great ideas undiscovered, breakthroughs available to those who can remove one of the truth's protective layers." 19) Astronauts can't keep their stories straight about whether they see stars in space, 20) we went to the moon 50 years ago on calculator tech but haven't been back, 21) Van Allen Belts have now been discovered so moon landings were not possible, 22) the nature of the Astronauts interviews after the moon landings, 23) NASA conveniently lost thousands of reels of the original footage that could prove the moon landings, 24) lack of 24 hour views of the entire spinning ball, 25) Challenger Astronauts being found alive, 26) lack of motivation to go back to the moon, 27) promises of private space programs never being fulfilled, 28) rocket launch footage always shows rockets curving back down towards the ocean rather than leaving Earth to space, 29) clouds movements on a spinning ball should be able to be measured at different rates of speed relative to the sun at different latitudes on a spinning ball, 30) impossible devices being able to shoot over 200 miles in a straight line such as the Navy's rail gun, 31) toilets don't actually spin backwards in opposite hemispheres 32) perfect circle star trails should not occur on a ball that is performing 4 different motions at the same time with the slowest being rotation speed, 33) the moon may put off cool light, 34) the moon only effects the oceans and somehow leaves other large bodies of water alone when it comes to gravitational pull and the tides, 35) lack of real pics of the Earth, 36) lack of pics of Satellites in orbit, 37) Satellites may be ground based, 38) Arthur C. Clark a Freemason Science fiction author may be responsible for the idea of Satellites as he wrote about them well before they existed, 39) the horizon always rises to the observer at the highest heights that we can reach with high altitude balloons, 40) we see the same stars at opposite sides of the sun when we are supposed to be facing the opposite direction during opposite seasons, 41) the sun is closer to Earth in the winter in the heliocentric model, 42) there is no stellar parallax, 43) falling and shooting stars never come up from the horizon, 44) night and day has been filmed at the same time, 45) there are eclipses where the shadow comes from the wrong direction on the moon while the sun is in the sky, 46) seasons make better sense on a flat model, 47) crepuscular sun rays suggest a close sun and cannot be explained away with perspective, 48) we shouldn't be able to ever see Venus or Mercury at night, 49) the Michelson Morley experiment, 50) the Aries Failure experiment, 52) the Bedford Level experiment, 51) a cannon shot straight up in the air will always fall straight back down, 52) clouds above our heads curve way too fast to the horizon in every direction which proves perspective is the cause of this illusion, 53) the moons terminator illusion fits a flat Earth model, 54) Antarctic web cam (8 hours are cut from all web-cams) and other footage of a 24 hour sun there are always edited, 55) Earth pics are never pear shaped as Science claims the Earth is, 56) Gyroscopes do not detect curve or spin, 57) An Atmosphere cannot exist within a vacuum while automatically spinning with the Earth as an enclosed system, 58) Anomalies in Mars Rover footage and evidence that it is faked on Earth, 59) Communication with Equipment said to be in space is not plausible and the battery technology used is unlikely to last as long as we are told it is or to even work at all in those conditions, 60) Wind patterns work perfectly on a flat earth and are very eradic on a ball, 61) Bubbles in space on NASA spacewalk footage, 62) Harnesses being used on interior ISS shots, 63) Rockets may not even work in a vacuum, 64) There is evidence that the Hubble telescope never existed, 65) In thousands of hours of space footage no Astronaut ever pans their camera 360 degrees when humans would naturally want to show their surroundings in space, 66) Most big name space programs worldwide have the same vector symbolism in their logo which suggests that they are connected, 67) The flat earth society seems to have been created as a disinformation campaign, why create this if there is no truth to it? 68) Stars can be seen through the moon during certain eclipses, 69) NASA is one of the largest consumers of helium in the world and they launch Satellites on helium balloons which should be a red flag.. That Helium sure isn't just for cooling systems.. 70) Water could not possibly flow both uphill and downhill at the same time as it would have to an a curved ball like surface regardless of gravity.. 71) If the Earth were a spinning ball the forces from the spin would very greatly from the poles to the equator 72) If spaceflights to the ISS were real an Astronaut would have filmed his or her entire trip to the ISS by now on their cell phone which we all carry, in fact you will never see Astronauts boarding the ISS.. 73) Man-made Equipment and Metals put in Space such as the ISS or Sats would most likely melt due to the excessive heat from the sun and the extreme cold weather would also cause problems 74) Now "dummy" Americans are supposed to believe that there is a "dummy" Astronaut in a Car literally floating around the Earth, and I think they are actually buying it.. This is what they accept rather then the Mars Mission promised decades ago LOL 75) Operation paperclip suggests that NASA was formed by NAZI Rocket Scientists which were masters at propaganda and mind control.. 76) NASA's EPIC footage shows little to no cloud movements or morphing yet Japan's Himiwari Footage show clouds morphing very quickly.. Who's lying?? Both?? That's 100% proof of deception.. 77) Millions of mile Internet capability through "space" is highly implausible and most likely impossible.. My Cell reception still sucks.. 78) NASA's images of the Earth from the moon can be proven to have been cloned or spliced together and downloaded right from their own website and analyzed at home on a personal computer in Photo-shop, 79) No photos of our solar system even when we supposedly have sent satellites million of miles into the Galaxy and have taken the faked NASA EPIC footage from one, why not just zoom out and take a pic and show us the whole solar system?? A clue, they can't fake or they would.. 80) Scuba Tank caught on an Astronaut in spacewalk footage, 81) NASA and Obama now say we can't leave low earth orbit, 82) The North Star never moves and the constellations have never changed, 83) Astronaut almost drowning in "space", 84) Gravity is strong enough to hold the oceans on Earth and aircraft carriers upside down to the earth yet birds and butterflies fly with ease, 85) It took Captain Cook 3 years and 60,000 miles to circumnavigate Antarctica, 86) 99% of communication is by Undersea cables, 87) Undersea cables never cross from Southern Continent to Southern Continent, 88) Sun dogs and sun halos suggest that there "could" be a dome overhead although this is an assumption, 89) Astrolabes have predicted star movements and have been used for navigating for thousands of years, 90) Auguste Piccard the first man to reach the stratosphere said the earth is flat, 91) Our own senses tell us that the earth is flat and stationary, 92) Every ancient cosmology has turned out wrong, what makes us believe that we are the only ones who have gotten it correct? 93) Operation Deep Freeze, 94) Laser Tests confirm a flat earth, 95) A recent mirror reflection test of over 13 miles of water proves the Earth lacks curvature, 96) NASA's Moon rocks turned out to be fake, 97) A Submarine would have to constantly correct the nose down to remain under water, 98) Foucault pendulums are driven by finely tuned electric motors, 99) The ISS "live" feed is either looping footage or it cuts out once every hour and they won't show the dark side of the Earth, yet night footage has been released separate from the so called "live" feed.. Even worse people pathetically do not even question these obvious and glaring discrepancies, 100) Full moon should not be able to be seen during the day in the heliocentric theory 101) Stephen Hawking the so called super genius was a propaganda puppet, literally.. How did he survive decades longer then any ALS victim? How was he able to speak through a computer by wiggling his finger? Why was the rest of the world deprived of this amazing and life changing tech, what about other ALS victims? How was it that the smartest man in the world couldn't speak and was confined to a wheel chair and appeared to be mentally challenged? How convenient for those deceiving the world..

Steven hawking saying no to something is possibly the most final no you can get. like, compared to even powerful speakers, there's just something about the way he says no that tells you the answer is not an answer or a prediction, but simply what is going to happen, and there is no possible way to change it.

[@jamestarrou3685]

well when you're one of the most brilliant minds in the world with a very limited speech capabilities yeah. It actually takes him a little bit of time to write out each of his responses, so if he just says 'no', people know he's probably not gonna take the extra minute or two responding to it.

[@chrischeng2922]

He smiles. I love it. He still has some control :) The power of laughter :)

[@Brainbuster]

This is better without the laugh track. Thank you. I can actually hear what they're saying.

[@fmca96]

Watching this now after hearing of his passing. Such an amazing and intelligent man, Rest in peace Stephen

[@thesentientsponge9971]

Tell me you also smiled when you saw Stephen Sir smiling. What a delight this was ! RIP Stephen Hawking 💐 We've truly lost the greatest mind !😢

[@pitioti]

I totally agree, there is so much in just one smile !

[@edgelordofhosts]

I would love for John Oliver to read any popular bedtime story with his sarcasm levels turned up to maximum. Any day of the week.

Shanahan Owo You misspelled "every day of the week."

[@kookiespace]

You can actually see him be annoyed at the drug king pin scenario

[@madiganblake]

What he managed to accomplish despite the odds and ALS is such an inspiration ! He had a great mind (and a great sense of humour too) and will be missed...

[@treyolathecrayola2433]

Watching this and crying at the same time. Be with the stars..

[@Drace90]

What a funny guy! And John Oliver was there, too.

[@matthewlovesbritney]

Stephen has a lovely smile :)

[@connortobin7398]

Forever will you be missed in this vast universe. Hopefully the knowledge you gave us and your name is never lost to the pages of history

[@sridharfc]

This is by far the most intelligent interview I have seen. Awesome at so many levels!

[@SamTheFisherMan100]

Omg when he was just spamming "no" was hilarious

[@hoyit]

I legitimately burst out laughing when John reacted to that story about the computer. I was thinking the exact same thing.

[@Qrowzzy]

It's beautiful that a man with so many physical limitations had the will power to become one of the greatest minds of our time. Rest in peace and thank you so much for your work.

[@Mediaright]

Godspeed, you wonderful man.

[@ruthespiritu502]

WHEN STEPHEN HAWKING ROLLED HIS EYES AFTER OLIVER SAID "You're a mid-level drug hustler..." HE'S JUST LIKE "I'm so doneee"

[@marce90r]

[@vanhavirta]

[@callummackenzie]

That grin!@ 5.55, perfect!

[@TheCurmudgen]

Stephen Hawking calling someone an idiot really isn't an insult because we're all idiots compared to him. lol

He came in with the roasts 🔥🔥🔥🔥R.I.P 😭😭

[@rednovember2205]

Yes, if you're like me you too came to this interview right after he died to remember what a great man he was. Absolutely Brilliant.

[@Johnny-rx4hs]

"Are you being sarcastic?" He's British, John, of course he's being sarcastic! :P
