    I really hope this channel keeps uploading content, it’s a gift to humanity
  • @Nickator
    Please dont stop bringing content like this. It simplifies concepts that take months to understand in colleges and I can even visualize it. This deserves millions of views I hope you reach there soon! All the best
  • @Tempelier_
    I currently have the (electro)magnetic chapter in physics, so this is actually very helpful!
  • @debug0sec
    Thanks for making these. I want to show my support and hopefully make it worth your while to keep writing and producing these types of videos. Happy holidays! I look forward to your next release.
  • bro casually explains 10x all of high school physics in 12 minutes with 300% understandability
  • @Alex-nb7on
    without a doubt the most clear, thorough, and engaging science education content on youtube. no stone left unturned, all perfectly parseable. you are a treasure. thanks so much for what you do.
  • 6:01 it is worth noting that some animals can actually see light polarisation, eg. some insects recognise polarised light and use this ability to detect pools of water (its surface reflects light with horizontal polarization more strongly than with vertical polarisation), kinda like they were wearing polarised sunglasses. Fun fact is that even some humans have very limited ability to see polarisation - look for "Haidinger's brush".
  • @harshanand127
    Thanks! It was a great video, please keep making these . You covered a great amount of knowledge into this small video.would love to see more of these !
  • @SerAlbi
    Watching this channel is like having a secret master key to the unknown that you can temporarly use to access the mysteries of the universe. Amazing as always.
  • @BariScienceLab
    Please, if you could make such an animated video on the physics of conductors and insulators (dielectrics) -- especially polarization of dielectrics, that would be unbelievable. Your animations are changing lives -- please don't stop.
  • @xbuniekx
    Awesome, thank you for posting :)
  • You are simply genius physicist. I think none in world right now has such talent to explain very complex phenomenon with beautiful demonstration or animations. You caught human mind's ability to understand pictures in motion...
  • @Dark_Slayer3000
    Today I learned why the sky is blue and how 3D cinema works. Thank you!
  • @SamAllamJP
    I’m stunned by your simple, clear and yet comprehensive and sophisticated explanation and presentation. I can bet reading old school physics books wouldn’t help understand electromagnetic waves, the way your 12 minutes clip would help. Much appreciation
  • @summergeary8581
    I never comment in YouTube videos but I just wanted to thank you , I’ve never gained such in-depth understanding from a video before! Amazing
  • This channel is the best at explaining complex topics in a simple and easy to understand way.
  • @Randall1001
    A new ScienceClic post!!! I love this channel. Octave is a fantastic narrator, and the content is always engaging and hugely interesting. Thank you!!
  • @Zapatozi
    That was probably the most beautiful introduction I've seen on this topic.
  • @EmceeEdits
    Your videos make visualising and understanding things fun and exiting. Thank you.
