@mholiv Feynman was a smart theoretical physicist, but popular he was in “public” for being an asshole, unfortunately.
Meaning: Feynman was surely popular among physicists, he did a lot of important work, but among public he was famous not for his work, but for normal stories like StreepClub :ablobcatpopcorn:
Agreed, not the person I respect the most or believe is going to reveal the most truth. But he’s the best one on the list to keep you engaged and entertained for 3 hours.
Feynman. Dude must have some crazy stories. Seriously, who cares about science?
Why? He was relatively contemporary and lived a pretty normal life relative to most of us compared to the historical figures.
That and he was a mega sexist who made the lives of women in science much worse for literal decades.

Have you ever read his non science books like Surely You’re Joking Mr Feinman? They’re fun.
100%. Not only can he explain all this physics to an idiot like me, he’s got more stories than anybody there

Feynman 100% as a man of the scientific community, I love having someone draw ridiculous diagrams to teach even crazier things.
