I watched this every time it came on as a kid. He had a straightforward, friendly approach to science that I enjoyed. It was as if your own grandpa was teaching you science in a relaxed, informal atmosphere that always ended up being fun.

[@bradyanderson6311]

Paramount+, here it comes.

[@Holocaustica]

Ahhhh, the memories. I remember thinking that was his kitchen.

[@guardiane]

Ah good ol'Mr. Wizard. I used to watch his program ALL the time. If I had to choose between him and say Bill Nye, I'd choose him EVERY time.

[@Mittens_Explains_It_All]

Guardiane for sure! I never could get into bill nye's obnoxiously frantic and schizophrenic pacing. It felt condescending and stupid. This, this is just awesome. Way more engaging and thoughtful.

[@guardiane]

I also like how he isn't acting, he's just being himself, like you're in a classroom. Feels like he didn't even really rehearse, he must have been like "F it, lets just film it."

Mythbusters would have blown up that paper home just to prove a point!

[@mitsuhamarie5769]

thank youuu for explaining. but why did I only found your channel now🤧 still great help!

[@timcrawford7306]

I watched Mr. Wizard every morning before school

[@SubaruWRXspdManual]

Tim Crawford same here! brings me back.

[@sportsguy1989]

Ditto!

[@chipchopbarbershop8426]

Cool show

[@gballs007]

Same here.... was on at 6 or 630am

[@zombie-process7025]

My absolute favorite show as a kid. His reruns from the 50's/60's were just as awesome.

[@catluciano6909]

Mr Wizard is so cool I watched his show when I was a kid he does such an awesome job with showing the viewers cool stuff

[@jennyfromtheblock2705]

Very educational. I wish they have shows like this today

[@bobobandy9382]

We do :) It's this one right here. The fundamentals don't change.

[@jimjoyce4423]

I miss him just as is, but I miss him even more when Big bang theory made their own version of him

[@ThatDamnPandaKai]

I'm glad he pointed out that water takes away the heat and not the oxygen (think about it water is H2O so it already has oxygen in it)

[@jeffmccormick7436]

I used to get up at 5am to catch that show I used to watch when I was a little kid.

[@christianzuhfanyi9375]

Great and simple to understand

[@subaruthug]

Ahhh, the good old days before smoke detectors.

[@rruuss5786]

that's really good teaching

[@pearbear2405]

who is here because of their science work

[@zyrcd]

Me

[@SuperBlueGamer_Official]

Me. But for revision for a test

what is it called when a material can burn but does not produce enough heat to continue burning on its own, it needs an exernal source to continue burning

[@adamguymon7096]

Did you know that sometimes they have to star4t another fire that is a control burn to get a forest fire out.

[@ChristmasEve777]

Literally fighting fire with fire! Wow! I never heard that. I need to look it up.

[@meetmevada1952]

God

[@chrismc410]

Don't you need ignition for fire and not necessarily heat?

[@TheDbworks]

+chrismc410 Ignition is a process in which you increase the heat to cause combustion. So, heat is fundamental and basic :) to start a fire.

[@ralfnuggs165]

Friction!

[@ChristmasEve777]

For a chemical reaction to occur, the temperature of the reactants need to at least be some minimum temperature to burn. A spark or other ignition source is usually very small but very hot and capable of starting the process. Dropping the reactants' temperature will instantly stop the fire. I actually got burning paper to go OUT by dropping it in liquid oxygen. I wouldn't recommend this though! That same paper, when soaked in liquid oxygen and ignited will burn explosively. Also, lowering it into that liquid oxygen caused it to burn much brighter and hotter at first because that container had lots of pure oxygen gas above the liquid.

Thank you my celebrated scientist I was hoping for your assistance be prepared for the world's largest gathering a boy Scouts and girl Scouts of America 30th year anniversary bridge to The Future 1993 you have assembled close to 415,000 scouts and 30 years maybe celebrating boy Scouts and girl Scouts of America as it was needed 1993 65000 pizzas a day for 2 weeks only offered one pizza for scout per week 2023 we may have a lot larger gatherings 2.7 million campers how many pizzas conveyor ovens maybe needed for this large gathering of scout?
