| People also don’t think he’s one of the greatest physicists ever. As he said, he was just an ordinary person who worked very hard. |

| Everyone thinks they are ordinary. If you have 160 IQ that just feels ordinary. You can only really measure ordinary in terms of achievement. The 100 IQ person that works that hard doesn't invent that much physics. They might get rich, change the world etc. |

| Well, the Nobel committee certainly seemed to disagree with you. |

| ▲ | CamperBob2 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | Can you elaborate on that point? I didn't downvote you, but I'm also not going to watch a 3-hour #metoo video about a guy from my grandfather's era in order to understand what you mean. What's next... is she going to tell me that Newton was a real asshole? Noooooo, say it isn't so. | | |
| ▲ | melling 32 minutes ago | parent [-] | | It’s discussed in the first few minutes. That’s basically all I watched. One of the first points she tries to make is that people claim that Feynman is one of the top physicists of all time, comparable to Einstein and Newton. She tries to set us straight. Anyway, I’m a big Feynman fan. My Discord handle is feynman1918. |
