The Mark Steel Lectures - Einstein

In today's hilarious episode, comedian Mark Steel teaches you all the basics about Einstein, his life and work. Surprisingly, and this is perhaps the best part, the explanations of Einstein's theories of special and general relativity are much more straightforward and on point than I originally anticipated: I expected Steel to make a huge shambles out of the whole thing for the sake of humor, but was very pleasantly surprised to find it both accurate and hilarious. If you do want a more serious treatment of the physics, though, check out the previous posts on The Elegant Universe.

And now you know why you should never bring an anorexic or bulimic chick to a particle accelerator on a first date... won't be making that mistake again...
