I had a friend who gave maths lectures at Manchester uni. His lecture was just before Brian's every week, in the same lecture theatre. He found it difficult (and a bit demoralising, probably!) squeezing out through a crowd of fans every week at the end of his lecture.
@@TimCrinion lol I fell asleep and my face must have typed the iii Oi because I have no idea what it means nor recollection of typing that lol Still awesome though, did he ever get to converse with him over any topics ? P
The thing I love about Brian Cox is his ability to make complicated science elementary enough for us mere mortals to understand but he is also very humble doing it. He doesn't make you sound stupid for not understanding, it's simply that you have never studied that field to the degree he has. I love him, he's brilliant.
You'd be surprised to know that no genuine physicist will claim they understand quantum mechanics. You can dumb down concept much like how atomic structure is dumb down or even plain outright wrongly teach in high school level . But, when you reach college level everything you know so far is thrown down the sink and you start from square one. Yes, you can simplify to certain extain to layman for them to understand partially but without knowing the mathematics that is involved you can't truly comprehend and understand.
I love it when he says "I don't know" A true scientist is always admits if they don't have an answer. But will never stop looking for the answer. This is refreshing!
He stopped for a little while..to be a rock star. Well, he was in a band for a few years before going back to school to be an astrophysicist. Kinda like Brain May, except May's rock star career was a lot more successful.
I just watched Interstellar again and it is truly humbling. To try to learn about relativity from lectures is one thing, but then to see Cooper dock and find that his colleague had aged 23 years, while he had only experienced 3ish hours was so bizarre. But the even more bizarre thing is that we live in that same universe, where that experience is actually possible. Just so inconceivable
Not even possible, must happen!!!! Time dialation starts in low earth orbit, by the time GPS satellites are in their orbital paths, they have 1 second of time dialation which has to be constantly offset. It's fascinating.
@@hlkotzehendrik7198 truth is a complicated word. Unless you want to get all religious, you could define truth as the observable and blackholes are observable in the sense that we can detect that there are super dense masses off in space. It doesnt matter if its just hypothetical, scientific models always change and this one is fine too. This is how many people define the truth. As an analogy, the ancient greeks already hypothesized that the earth is round by observing patterns in the stars! In the same way, we come up with hypotheses like black holes and the expanding universe by detecting EM radiation.
If you have time watch the video: "Terrence Tao cosmic distance ladder" Its a very interesting presentation about how the ancient human beings used the stars and mathematics to hypothesize the shape of the solar system, the earth, moon, etc. To pretty good accuracy for that matter!
Watching this episode made me realize how so much valuable and interesting it would be to have someone in person explain these topics as compared to the boredom of Just reading in a book that's hardly ever picked up. Great guest.
What a great teacher! He's that rare brilliant scientist who still has his childlike sense of wonder. I can't stop my mind from being blown, repeatedly, when listening to him.
The man’s brain is absolutely fascinating and he’s so kind, warm & patient. You could ask the most simplistic question and he will take it so seriously, with complete respect & patience and explain it in a way you will understand without zero patronising mannerism. With zero egotistical nature or arrogance. He will explain it with such enthusiasm that you’re learning the answer you seek. That gives him pure joy. It’s rare in a human. I love that. I wish more people were like him.
This is why I love the show " how the universe works" . It's like this, but with Mike Rowe narrative and multiple interviews with ppl like him...actually , I think he's on the show at times. I've learned soo much from the show and love to expand my knowledge of space.
Yea here in the UK he does loads of bbc documentaries on space & nature. They are fantastic and so easy to follow as you can tell from how he talks here
Brian Cox's ability to explain in a simple, clear way such complex ideas show how incredibly intelligent he is. He's one of my favorite people to listen to and reminds me so much of Carl Sagan in how passionate he is about space and humanity. Plus, they both had a kindness about them that's really pleasant.
Brian Cox has some of the best documentaries out there. He is willing to admit he doesn't know everything & such a joy to watch explaining space. He is one of the few who found his true calling.
I love how Brian Cox never tries to explain something that he has no understanding of. Hell just say "we don't know why..." And there's something so humble about that.
Nar its just mind boggling how there is no limit to space n how it just goes on for ever. Plus it does my head in on how everything we know was create..for example at a point it was a empty void of nothing but somehow something was created out of it.
raheem segowski the Big Bang happened 13.8 billion years ago which, supposedly, created the universe, but, Brian cox said on another video that there’s some evidence to support theories that the universe existed before the Big Bang and so that could mean that the universe never even began. Think about that lol
@@eoghanclarke7693 On the same note, space is apparently infinite. It doesn't have a shape, it doesn't have an end, it doesn't have an edge. It just goes on, and on, and on. You will never reach the end. However fast light travels, the first photon ever emitted after the big bang, or at the hypothetical start of the universe, or even before that, is still travelling, and it still hasn't reached the end of space, and if it ever does, what the hell is beyond it? Even if space were finite, because ... well, it must be, mustn't it? It can't go on eternally, can it now? That would be totally unfathomable. Well what is beyond it? The more questions you answer, or at least come up with a hypothetical explanation for, the more questions spring up. The only thing I have ever really given any credit to in the Bible is the idea that God is infinite, he cannot be fathomed by the human mind. I think that's like space. Some things just can't be understood. Everything we know is finite, even if it's immense. The oceans are a good example : there are a bit less than 1 400 000 000 000 cubic kilometers of water on earth, and most of those are in the ocean. That's 560 BILLION olympic swimming pools. That's hard to imagine isn't it? Yeah, but it's imaginable. You can get your head around it, because it's actually a number. Space is infinitely larger. Literally. It is as much larger than a speck of dust than it is larger than a star. How is that possible?
@@Ceracio honestly, its why hardline atheists bother me. I dont mean the ones who say there isnt a god.

I love Joe and how he is curious about EVERYTHING. Always asking questions, always willing to learn, and figure out if he's wrong, and WHY he is or isn't wrong. Question everything! Not questioning anything/everything is choosing to remain ignorant.
Astronomy would have been a dream job for me. My math ability however pretty much put a limit on that but I love learning it still on a conceptual level. The end-game between the star and gravity is fascinating. A neutron star being essentially a 10 mile wide atomic nucleus is just mind-blowing. I've always wanted to believe there was 'something' other than a singularity at the center of a black hole and imagined it something more like the neutron star where it is an object of density sufficient that light can't escape but still not infinitely small and that it gets closer and closer to zero in size as mass is added in but that's just me never liking the "point of infinite density". Anyway I love the science of Astronomy.
Math is a weird one, with most things, they get harder when you get older but I've found that when I go back to some of the more complex math now that I didn't understand well in my 20's it just makes sense now. Give it another shot.
Funny thing is, scientists dont like the point of infinite density either, so youre all good haha. They try to find a theory of everything, with that, you could potentially calculate properly what happens in the center
No one actually thinks it is infinitely dense because infinity is a ridiculous concept in reality, it doesn't take infinity to stop the escape of c. it's just the generally used shorthand to describe the singularity based on math made 100 years ago.
Brian Cox is surely one of the most interesting people on this planet to listen to, and the manner in which he puts things across simplifies difficult to understand matters for everyone. I watched his ‘Planets’ series in awe.
This guy is so likeable, everything from his slight smile to his gentle voice to his graceful hand gestures to his British accent...I could listen to him talk all day.
There’s two voices I can fall asleep to… David Attenborough and Brian Cox. I can pay attention to every word but they are so relaxing. Kinda hard to explain
@Chango Chilemba Chill dude, you sound like you need some help. Remember, the problem is not elsewhere, it lies within you, you just need to find it and remedy it.
If stuff is too heavy(massive) then it can't float on the fire anymore and it all collapses. Black holes can be anywhere from 10x the mass of our sun to infinitely massive. But it takes around 10x the mass of our sun to collapse and turn into a black hole. Also as stars burn they're slowly turning light elements into heavier ones which fall to the middle and increases the gravity toward the center and helps them collapse. When it gets too heavy, the gravity won't let anything, including light, escape
Because he didn’t explain anything he only told theories based on the best guess. They literally made up the math. Even their base lines are made up of their best guess. No one can say 100% because NO ONE ever ACTUALLY been able to sample one for real. But that is how science works.
I hope this man lives a good life ! And as we can see he is already living it . Most fascinating guest on the ahow . Would love to see/hear more of him !
Telling stories about humanity’s extinction in the softest most emotionless way. Putting you into the worst nightmare event without any sense of horror sleep. I’ll buy two of them please
I love how I'm listening but I already know some parts because pro Brian Cox had taught me already, I have many books he was my first stepping stone into admiring the universe and physics, he is the best teacher and so humble and calm.
Brian is a genius both at explaining complex science and making it all very interesting and captivating instead of being deadly boring, to us all non-scientists. Well done Prof. Cox. 👏
The supernova in the Crab Nebula in 1054 was the last recorded supernova in the Milky Way galaxy. If you want one from modern times though, there was a supernova that went off in the Large Magellanic Cloud which is a small dwarf galaxy that orbits the Milky Way, so it's fairly close by. It's called 'Supernova 1987a' and the photos are pretty cool. czcams.com/video/ITvAdZzNFb0/video.html&ab_channel=ChandraX-rayObservatory
This guy is amazing and he is even smart enough to say “I don’t know that’. A lot of wannabe smart guys try to hide things they don’t know but it’s just the way it is. He explains everything really well. Bring him on more please 👍
If you interested in this subject. There're a lot of his documentary show on BBC. I would recommended this series named "Human Universe". czcams.com/video/-_NFy0XPp_4/video.html
The suspected binary star in our solar system is Jupiter. It would explode into a star if it had enough mass but it doesn't. It is nothing that exists in the Kuiper Belt as Joe suggests.
@@goldenboy06 I think the Viking satellite has just recently left our solar system and into interstellar space but yeah, there certainly could be a ninth planet.
Just like his books Prof.Cox' explanations on camera, in lectures or on podcasts, are always clear and understandable. He is just very clever at translating ''genius'' into ''plain''.
There's a lesson in there for the entire population of Westminster. Step one grow a brain, step two don't be a dick, step three apply newly formed brain to actual problems.
Joe seems really interested in these things, and he has done his research. Brian cox is a superstar. So good at explaining complex topics. And so humble.
Louis Murray Something that other countries would do well to try and emulate. Prof. Cox, I suspect, thinks that the message, idea or theory is more important than the person delivering it. His personal hero Richard Feynman would’ve agreed.
The "elite" physicists though that he was "cheapening" physics by making it more understandable for the "common man". Probably some of them were jealous.
I first became familiar with the concept of black holes when I was 11 or 12 while watching the Discovery Channel at home. Just the idea of falling into one and being ripped to shreds gave me nightmares.
Joe Rogan has no mind to blow. He has no idea how many feet are in A mile( from the Randal Carlson interview) let alone cosmological facts. But I bet he knows how many grams of weed are in A Pound.
@@jeffo2112 what does that even mean? "But I bet he knows how many grams of weed are in A Pound." like what the fuck? that's your typical WoT player I guess. Throws retarded insults around and doesn't even know how to coherently construct said insult.
Fun fact: Dr. Brian Cox, way back in the day, was the keyboard player for a very successful (in the UK) pop band (called D:Ream) in the early 90s. They had a #1 hit, in fact.
Brian is like the best astrophysicist there is in regard to explaining the universe in such a way that he makes it super enjoyable & entertaining to learn. Even better then Degrasse Tyson (in my humble opinion). I can’t imagine how anyone could ever not just love the hell outta this dude. He’s le shìt

David Pawson once said of Einstein’s explaination of his theory of Relativity that “It takes a genius to be that simple.”

are you 10? He didn't say anyting complicated. Whole interview was just pop culture stuff.
@@JohnDoe-yr3lm Are YOU 10. That was my point.
You know he’s a good scientist when he’s willing to say, “I don’t know.”
Right! He's human too.
We wouldn't have created Quantum mechanics if scientists were like the so called "rationalistic thinker" people we see around us.
If he was Indian he would just say he knows everything....
Yep he's aware physics only goes so far.
Spot on! The difference between science and religion. I don't know let's investigate vs mysterious ways.
To quote Einstein: 'If you can't explain it to a six-year-old, you probably don't understand it yourself. ' For simplicity is genius.
I read Epstein hahahaha
That’s how how shit works lol
I’d love to see how he explained general and special relativity to a 6 year old. Still does a number on me now 😂

Funny thing is, scientists dont like the point of infinite density either, so youre all good haha. They try to find a theory of everything, with that, you could potentially calculate properly what happens in the center
Don't you mean a D:ream job?
No one actually thinks it is infinitely dense because infinity is a ridiculous concept in reality, it doesn't take infinity to stop the escape of c. it's just the generally used shorthand to describe the singularity based on math made 100 years ago.
Brian Cox is surely one of the most interesting people on this planet to listen to, and the manner in which he puts things across simplifies difficult to understand matters for everyone.
I watched his ‘Planets’ series in awe.
They didn’t mention the black hole that exists between your car’s seat and center console though.
LoL this cracked me up!
Oh and they missed talking about the black hole in everyones laundry where our socks vanish! :)
We know less about that place than what this guys on about
LMAO
I don't get it, what does he mean?
Gerhart X who Brian the first poster?
If I was a billionaire, I would hire this man to just talk science stuff to me while we’re drinking coffee and cognac.
I just very much like him.
JonSnowIII same
And after plying him with booze you'd manoeuvre him into the bedroom, eh?
@@lefroy1 to show your scaled model of the Von Braun wheel?
@@dominicjose3660 No, my supermassive black hole.
Gay boy
He explains massive concepts so gently and gives the feeling they're everyday occurrences, which they are 🤯
You just really see how much fun he has with physics and science in general - great!
"We saw that in 1054AD" he's looking good for his age tbf
underrated comment
Hahaha
Good memory too, I can’t remember what I had for breakfast
To be frank?
lol
Professor Brian Cox, the Bob Ross of Physics.
Habanero Jones I’m just gonna paint some happy little black holes
I’m just gonna put a black hole there, and that’s gonna be our little secret.
The electrons keeps on getting closer and closer and beat the devil out of each other :D

☺️
watttafukenlllooozzzURRR!!!
DERP
Brian Cox has the amazing ability to make me believe that I understand what he is saying. I can watch these clips forever
Absolutely love it....
Thank you..😊...
I could listen to a 5 hour lecture by him and not get bored.
He’s made a lot of programs for the BBC, such as Wonders of the Solar System and The Planets. He’s fantastic. They are well worth a watch.
This guy is so likeable, everything from his slight smile to his gentle voice to his graceful hand gestures to his British accent...I could listen to him talk all day.
He use to be in a pop band D:Ream, they had a few hits. He played the keyboards. Damn talented guy.
I don't really like his voice, I prefer Carl Sagan
Manchester accent, delivered by a very smart man in love with his subject in a calm manner. Agree. He’s a delight.
Dream things can only get better. Won’t believe he’s in it, I don’t and I know he’s in it. You tube it 🇬🇧

Check out his hair from the Rock band before D:Ream.
This guy is doing his absolute dream job rn. He was smiling the whole time talking about space, and cosmic objects. He's in love with it.
that's just him; even his bitch face is a smile.
There is a video where he is debating a climate change denyer and he gets really mad but apart from that I agree he is always smiling
@@chrismonks592 I understand why he would get mad debating with an idiot.
Of course he's always smiling , he's effin nuts
I see what you did there @Cosmic Lyrics...... I see it.
I mean, I wonder of Prof Brian Cox DReams about space.....
the happiness in his eyes while explaining that is what i want to have when i work or find something to do in life!
There’s two voices I can fall asleep to… David Attenborough and Brian Cox. I can pay attention to every word but they are so relaxing. Kinda hard to explain
His voice sounds soothing. He should talk in Headspace
I couldn’t stop listen to the Headspace guy’s voice once I read this comment
@Chango Chilemba Chill dude, you sound like you need some help. Remember, the problem is not elsewhere, it lies within you, you just need to find it and remedy it.
Haha truth.
@Chango Chilemba why are you so angry?
Brian has his own podcast called The infinite Monkey cage
Such a soothing voice to hear on a lazy Sunday afternoon with a hangover.
Couldn't agree more but Mr Attenborough tops my list
Breaking Bad is the best thing to watch when hungover.
@@kieranpugh5342 oh yes! Love Mr Attenborough too!
@@darkwizard2651 I've never seen an episode of that show, so I can't comment!
That was the most aggravating and disgusting voice. Cut it off within 2 minutes just because of the way he talks
This man is a credit to science. Hi is both genuine and calm
I can’t wait to see Brian cox show next month, can listen to him all day
He's almost soothing to listen to. Not in a super smooth way, just calm, articulate but relaxing, engaging sort of way.
The title: “Physicist explains black holes in plain English”
Me after watching the video in its entirety: “no hablo inglés”
Ha ha
If stuff is too heavy(massive) then it can't float on the fire anymore and it all collapses. Black holes can be anywhere from 10x the mass of our sun to infinitely massive. But it takes around 10x the mass of our sun to collapse and turn into a black hole. Also as stars burn they're slowly turning light elements into heavier ones which fall to the middle and increases the gravity toward the center and helps them collapse. When it gets too heavy, the gravity won't let anything, including light, escape
Bahahaha,that's funny....
Because he didn’t explain anything he only told theories based on the best guess. They literally made up the math. Even their base lines are made up of their best guess. No one can say 100% because NO ONE ever ACTUALLY been able to sample one for real. But that is how science works.
@@numberlover8181
Once again...no habla ingles.
What a lovely man. Very tactful, he explains things which are very complicated that most educated people could not perceive.
I hope this man lives a good life ! And as we can see he is already living it .
Most fascinating guest on the ahow .
Would love to see/hear more of him !
I’m too high for this, I’ll be back tomorrow.

A man who can exlpain such complex matters in such a simple way is truly intelligent!
I love how I'm listening but I already know some parts because pro Brian Cox had taught me already, I have many books he was my first stepping stone into admiring the universe and physics, he is the best teacher and so humble and calm.
Wow it’s so calming to listen to this guy
Epstein didn’t kill himself
Yep i could listen to joe most of the day
Nobody cares what happened to a pedo
Daniel Perez Yeah, but it would’ve been nice if he could’ve sold out his friends. Instead, Bill had to get rid of the witnesses.

Omg this made my day
..Tremendous
LOOOOO
Brian Cox got a D in maths. Fact. Anyone can turn it around if they apply themselves.
I'm dead!😂😂😂
💀
Brian’s a real rock star of science giving clarity in an era of warped science based bs
He was also Keyboardist in a band that had a number 1 hit in the UK,.... So actual rockstar?
I love listening to Brian Cox speak. His voice is so deliberate and soothing.
"It's quite cool."
It's fucking terrifying that's what it is.
We gonna die anyway bro
@@rl1226 im not tho

@@HeedfulGibbon y? Whats wrong with brian cox?
Brian is a genius both at explaining complex science and making it all very interesting and captivating instead of being deadly boring, to us all non-scientists. Well done Prof. Cox. 👏
He’s an alcoholic, & a criminal
Brian Cox is an incredible person to listen to and so smart, I could
Listen to him explain science all day!
When he said: "We saw Crab Pulsar Supernova explosion", I almost went to Google for a video. Then he said: "In 1054 AD".
It's there, just in 240p.
Mental ey
Basically just making educated guesses
I gave a talk on this a few years ago - it's worth reading about. The event was visible during the day for a couple of weeks back then in ol' 1054.
The supernova in the Crab Nebula in 1054 was the last recorded supernova in the Milky Way galaxy. If you want one from modern times though, there was a supernova that went off in the Large Magellanic Cloud which is a small dwarf galaxy that orbits the Milky Way, so it's fairly close by. It's called 'Supernova 1987a' and the photos are pretty cool.

This guy is amazing and he is even smart enough to say “I don’t know that’. A lot of wannabe smart guys try to hide things they don’t know but it’s just the way it is. He explains everything really well. Bring him on more please 👍
If you interested in this subject. There're a lot of his documentary show on BBC. I would recommended this series named "Human Universe".
czcams.com/video/-_NFy0XPp_4/video.html
The suspected binary star in our solar system is Jupiter. It would explode into a star if it had enough mass but it doesn't. It is nothing that exists in the Kuiper Belt as Joe suggests.
Name Here probably just thinking of the the theoretical 9th planet that may be out there on an extremely distant orbit.
@@namehere4954 Jupiter is a big baseball bat for Earth; protecting it.
@@goldenboy06 I think the Viking satellite has just recently left our solar system and into interstellar space but yeah, there certainly could be a ninth planet.
Just like his books Prof.Cox' explanations on camera, in lectures or on podcasts, are always clear and understandable. He is just very clever at translating ''genius'' into ''plain''.
That's easy to say on CZcams. I would like to hear your summary of this mini lecture on black holes.
I like how he doesn't rush what he talks about, carefully explains it and takes great care in that 👍
Respect Brian, getting Alan Shearer to grasp this is very impressive.
Next up: Gareth Southgate learns "Heisenberg's uncertainty principle"
Brian cox is a very respected chap in the uk.
Wen he talks, everyone listens!
There's a lesson in there for the entire population of Westminster. Step one grow a brain, step two don't be a dick, step three apply newly formed brain to actual problems.

Wrong. I'm a qualified scientist here in the UK and I have NO respect for Bwian Cocks and his pseudoscience.
I could listen to him explain things like this forever.. so interesting
Joe seems really interested in these things, and he has done his research. Brian cox is a superstar. So good at explaining complex topics. And so humble.
“I don’t know” makes him creditable to me.
Credible*
I don't know what I find more impressive about Brian Cox. His vast knowledge and intelligence, or his ability to constantly smile as he talks.
Nik or the fact he’s 50yrs old. He knows some things I don’t.
I think he tries really hard to not look arrogant...
@@Andy-jw4xc it's easy, he's British. Despite his vast knowledge of space, he's never actually seen the sun.
@@the7esla989 its a very britsh thing to not appear arrogant in trying to demonstrate a point or a skill
Louis Murray Something that other countries would do well to try and emulate.
Prof. Cox, I suspect, thinks that the message, idea or theory is more important than the person delivering it. His personal hero Richard Feynman would’ve agreed.
He's a very bright yet humble man. Admirable and likable.
We need more people like this as teachers
This is the guy who got ignored when talking about something he's passionate about, who finally finds somebody who'll listen
@@AlxndrXX Nope. You just dont get it.
@@AlxndrXX I don't have to argue the meaning of my own comment, do I?
Alex Painter he probably meant back when he was younger and he didn’t get paid for what he did
The "elite" physicists though that he was "cheapening" physics by making it more understandable for the "common man". Probably some of them were jealous.
I can totally relate to that feeling as a super passionate metalhead with friends who mostly listen to rap

He has lots of documentaries in BBC about science and natures . Love him he is simply genius and love what he is doing .
Brian Cox documentaries about space/time etc are brilliant he’s the David Attenborough of his field 🙌
You can hear Joe Rogan's mind being blown when Brian talks about the neutron star.
Joe Rogan has no mind to blow. He has no idea how many feet are in A mile( from the Randal Carlson interview) let alone cosmological facts. But I bet he knows how many grams of weed are in A Pound.

You can tell Brian Cox is so humble with his words. So joe can relate to them.. and i still find joe struggle with those words😍🤣🤣
Amazing! He made science so much more accessible!
This guy is such an interesting character he isn’t charismatic yet somehow he really is. Really like this guy
It’s because he is genuine.
I could listen to this guy explain a damn grilled cheese sandwich and be equally happy. So calming and interesting
"So halfway through the bread and cheese sort of.. flip"
@aerial bombardment is a military hoax Hmm . . . original. . . I like it !
He seems so happy and passionate about the science
I could listen to Brian explaining things all day,hard to think here in the UK I remember him from a 90's pop band called D Ream.
He is genuinely happy while talking about his job. That’s great to watch.
Fun fact: Dr. Brian Cox, way back in the day, was the keyboard player for a very successful (in the UK) pop band (called D:Ream) in the early 90s. They had a #1 hit, in fact.
He also spent some time as a military scientist in the US army. He led a secret project to wipe out the next phase of human evolution.
He's also the best skateboarder in the world
@@adamrlongley28 i would LOVE to see some sources on that
Of course he was! This guy is what Russel Brand dreams about being in his narcissistic fever state lol
He's telling the truth people.. you can Google it lol
Brian is like the best astrophysicist there is in regard to explaining the universe in such a way that he makes it super enjoyable & entertaining to learn. Even better then Degrasse Tyson (in my humble opinion).
I can’t imagine how anyone could ever not just love the hell outta this dude. He’s le shìt
Well, that certainly clears it all up.
