  • Steve is a really smart guy if you ignore the British accent" *angry tea clink noises*
  • The British version of saying “I disagree and you’re wrong” is “that’s interesting” 😂
  • 9:08 starts the most important 1 minute and 10 seconds of SmarterEveryDay humanity life lesson. I share this with my students every year so they get to hear it at least 3 times and hopefully we ingrain a life skill about perspective, rational thinking, humility, and empathy. I give Dustin a standing ovation on this one!
  • @nottiification
    "When i disagree with someone it is imperative that i stop, i listen and i don't move on until i completely understand the other persons perspective. Because its possible you'll find that you don't actually disagree" How to achieve world piece in a nutshell.
  • @MichaelD-fn5lv
    Destin: "I thought I was wrong, but it turns out I was mistaken."
  • @theCodyReeder
    Ok now I want to know if this will do the same with lasers instead of streams of water. I assume a much greater rotation rate will be required.
  • @randanman
    I like how you both don't care about who was wrong, its about discovery and learning.
  • @H3r404
    Gosh, I love your channel! It's so fun to watch someone be enthusiastic about stuff! I really appreciate how you stop and address stuff like how you guys were agreeing but not. I appreciate your outlook on life and that you choose to share it with us, thanks.
  • @johanung
    “When I disagree with someone, it is imperative that I stop, I listen, and I don’t move on until I completely understand the other person’s perspective.” The experiment was awesome, but this profound insight at the end really hit home. If anyone ever asks me what it means “to have character”, I think I’ll link them this video.
  • @bdubbsmark
    "I just looked like an idiot." It takes strength to admit when you are wrong. I appreciate you putting it out there.
  • @drandana3661
    You're a great roll model and your genuine conversation about vulnerable scientific conversation is spot on!
  • @titusdaniel
    Thanks for taking an interesting physics question, interpreting with humility, and turning it back on yourself in an honest and personal way. You're the best !
  • I realy like how eventhough he didn't listen to him while performing the experiment, he took the time to reflect and admit that he was wrong.
  • @LikeOnATree
    Destin, your quote at 10:00 really resonated with me: "When I disagree with someone, or at least I think I disagree with someone, it is imperative that I stop -- I listen, and I don’t move on until I completely understand the other person’s perspective. Because it’s possible, you’ll find, you don’t actually disagree." A great takeaway and a great quote for all of us! Thanks so much for being real and explaining how you felt! Yet another great video, well done!
  • He turned an already awesome video to another level by his monologue at the end. Even I was thinking the same thing during the video that Destin is not listening to him properly. But it was cool of him to accept that in the end. Loved the video and your channel in general too.
  • @jseries101
    This model would make for some great water fountain art, I would love to see an artist build on this. :)
  • @justinteal495
    The fact you flew to england to play with a sprinkler in someones garden😂
  • @nolistark5161
    Love this demonstration. Each design kind of emphasizes the two different frames of references. The first design makes it easier to visualize the pipes as the frame of reference as the water “trails behind.” And the second makes it easier to visualize the particle as the reference frame as it “moves forward” after it exits the pipe.
  • @PhysioDetective
    Thanks for you for your humble approach Destin. And Steve’s graciousness.
