[@JerKur18]

😁👉👉 👈👈😁

[@timsmith7858]

Maybe he was

[@LazarusIsBackBaby]

AAAAAAAHHHA HAH HHHAHHAHA

[@karritessa]

I am in awe. I don't know how to react. A yank just perfectly described an aussie tradition better than an aussie could...or would. I am proud of our tradition but yet amazed that anything, ANYTHING even a simple TimTam Slam can be explained with science. Damn you Neil DeGrasse Tyson. I hate you. I don't hate you. Tell me why I feel this way Neil. The TimTamSlam was ours...OURS!!

[@finallyfinally9317]

Next the Americans will take the UGG boot and trademark it . .oh

[@charitytees]

yeah he made it sound eloquent but he failed to mention that the entire experience is 10x better if you start with frozen Tim Tams

[@RaymondHng]

@@charitytees How is it better with frozen Tim Tams?

[@missyfontana6762]

I love how he describes the tim tam slam

[@themanwhoknewtoomuch6667]

He make it sound like he is taking acid with DMT.

[@miriamvlachoulis6875]

"Renders the middle of the TimTam *molten* "

[@excellentcloud]

this is the best video on the Internet.

[@elizagaskell7957]

Wow - never heard the Tim Tam experience like that before.

[@snifferdogxsnifferdogx5977]

Lol! Love how he just revels in it all! Tim Tam Slams are awesome!

[@The_Stoic_PhilosopherAU]

I’ve never heard it explained so well!

[@jakegargiulo5101]

His real scientific explanation! 😂😍👌🏾👌🏾

[@geckogo7328]

This was so beautiful, I've actually gotten all misty.

[@MarkGoding]

A man of culture I see.

[@TheAverlorn]

That guy so didn't give a damn about tim tims lol

[@yt.personal.identification]

...until he tried it

[@dakotatube2272]

Why am I so shocked at the realisation that air is a fluid!!

[@Cookivirus]

Yeah... Me too

[@TheGaragelifter]

All gasses are fluids, I think many people have the misconception that fluids and liquids are the same thing.

[@daemonisedone4256]

you just know he has a stash of tim tams at home .

[@sh3n3ng]

Eating a biscuit has never been this sexual…

[@david-lt9wj]

All britishers can do the same thing with a penguin chocolate biscuit...its called a pinguin panguin dunk.

[@yt.personal.identification]

Just a sub-optimal replica of the real thing.

[@sydgirly]

My British sister-in-law still buys TimTams so I don't think so!

[@The_Stoic_PhilosopherAU]

That was the most sexual description I’ve ever heard about the Tim Tam Slam!

[@stevedavesteve4224]

If only I could somehow replace that pack of TimTams with a joint in the thumbnail. :)

[@evc24]

Good that he didn't come up with an equation : D

[@h.e.pennypacker2037]

That true BG..

[@bowenfulwood-griffiths4950]

He's definitely on the gear

[@dopamine3045]

This is a meme material

[@timtam3318]

scientist with the fax

[@BertWhite]

Damn. I'm from Russia and I would like to try this. Unfortunately I don't know any similar brand I can buy here and buying original Tim Tam from unofficial venders cost like 40 US $

[@Cookivirus]

Ouch

[@yt.personal.identification]

Aussie sites can do "Snack boxes". Order on an Australian site and ship it to yourself. For that price you will get a stack of them. Sell some to recoup the costs.

[@jdelark6428]

Science!

[@jughtful]

science word lol, Love it !!!

[@JerKur18]

Why does this seem dirty? The end music doesn't help. Lol

[@Zyhphon]

That thumbnail looks like he is asking for permission to smoke weed

[@kunalshrivastava6398]

Air is a fluid, just like ice is a rock. A monomineralic rock.

[@Mannyindahouse]

I've done it like 3/4 times.
