Animation vs. Physics

If anything isn't accurate, blame my lead animator, he's the physics nerd behind this. Watch the reaction/commentary here: https://youtu.be/BdEpnici7Is

The Cowboy hat was clever. At first I thought it was just a random aesthetic choice until I realized it also was there to contextualize TSC's rotational position in 3D space, since otherwise we wouldn't be able to tell what direction his body was facing unless the surrounding objects and environment were not symmetrical in shape, which most of them were.

Alan successfully escalated from classical mechanics to string theory

First half: School physics revision Second half: Reality warping

Argue with math, you get a dark souls boss fight Argue with physics and you get interstellar space travel

Alan deserves an Oscar award

As a physicist, this isn't a short film; this is a piece of art that is a perfect way to visually learn the world of physics.

15:32 I love like in this moment you represented the Kardashev's Scale and different universes, and also Types of beings according to his Scale. Thank you a lot for this work and this moment in particular

"If only Physics was like this" That's the thing: It is, we just don't see it

You’ve seen destroying Minecraft with Minecraft and destroying Math with Math, but have you seen destroying Physics with Physics?

The only problem I can see (as a Kerbal Space Program player) is that they didn't make TSC/Orange orbit any planets. It showed him going up than instantly losing all gravity, which is not how it works.

i love how we are talking about physics here but not the fact that orange treated the rocket like a horse

As a guy who loves physics, I absolutely love this, from classical mechanics to general relativity, then quantum mechanics. Alan and his team are do amazing job at this

As a physics student THIS has to be THE greatest video I have ever seen on youtube. This will motivate a lot of people to explore physics.

Bro... I'm tearing up, that was so beautifully done. Don't even get me started with the sounds and music... I'm honestly freaked out rn because I swear I've seen this exact video a long time ago... it feels so familiar... like home.

ブラックホールの特異点に関する特殊解がちゃんと描かれてて感動した。 空間の自由を失う代わりに時間的な自由を得られる。

From watching animator vs animation when I was a literal child to seeing this as an aerospace engineer, I thank you for creating one of the most top quality content that has ever existed on the internet during so many years

The first half was a revision of my high school physics, and the second half was simply a cinematic masterpiece

The physics here seems mostly fine, with the most glaring errors being: Throwing a ball forward while on a frictionless surface would grant the thrower equal linear momentum to that of the thrown ball in the opposite direction. Upon stopping, the momenta of the thrower and ball would perfectly cancel and their joint center of mass would not have moved. That aside, neither the ball nor the stick man should have been able to come to rest on the frictionless surface to begin with. The magnetic acceleration system seems to be an ill-conceived coil gun? If the large magnet rings are spontaneously demagnetizing at the moment the rocket reaches their center, it works, otherwise, the force of the magnetic field pulls backward on the rocket just as hard as it pulled forward and the net momentum gain is zero.

I just learned physics through one animation and it’s this
