2022-11-28 13:33:10 +0000 UTCOMG I died at 4:16. Every time I hear the number 108 in any context (okay, it doesn't come up often. But when it does—) I always hear in my head: midshipman: "Helm! 108!” robot: “Helm to 108.” Thank you for making me feel less crazy.

2022-08-17 19:20:29 +0000 UTCGrey, where is our Directors commentary? It's been over a year since the last one.... Please fix.

2022-08-10 15:28:30 +0000 UTCDid he post the director's commentary yet

2022-08-10 01:04:47 +0000 UTCNot sure. A bit disappointed that we weren't notified before it started.

2022-08-09 21:45:53 +0000 UTCLike some other users, I'm confused about the director's commentaries. I saw that one was going live on Youtube and thought it would show up here, but the latest I see is still metric paper. Does it just take a while to upload?

2022-08-09 21:07:29 +0000 UTCIt's awesome that you showed the correct equations in the physics portion. Often it seems that pop science explanations of physics dont like showing the equations, which feels disingenuous because thats the language of physics. As an aside: I also wanted to cheerlead the multipole expansion you showed because its so versitile - you can do the same technique on gravity to derive the tidal forces.

2022-08-09 09:41:37 +0000 UTCStill not there, actually. It cut off at a really annoying mid sentence point for me so I’m extra curious.

2022-08-09 05:55:02 +0000 UTCI never even got notified. Weird.

2022-08-09 02:11:55 +0000 UTCNot sure what you mean by 'archive', there are 8 director's commentary videos in total as of now, and 7 of them are on Patreon (search 'director' on CGP Grey's Patreon page). The remaining one is TEKOI which is available for free on his Youtube channel.

2022-08-09 00:11:02 +0000 UTCWhen do we get the directors commentary archive? I was around halfway through when it popped out of existence so thought I’d ask.

2022-08-08 22:47:06 +0000 UTCIt seems Grey uploaded "The Aurora: Deleted Scene" to patreon, it's directly under this post for me
Lukas Armstrong
2022-08-08 17:03:19 +0000 UTCYouTube has a bonus video about the auroras, but only available to YouTube subscribers. Is that video also on Patreon somewhere? I don't see it.

2022-08-08 15:09:04 +0000 UTCAbsolutely delightful. As a physicist :) it's always fun to see how the esoterica of the field interact with 'monkey level' problems. Really hoping we get some indifferent universe/physics wallpapers.

2022-08-08 14:07:11 +0000 UTCI like how physics snuck in with the electromagnetism explaination

2022-08-08 11:27:25 +0000 UTCGreat video. I’m really hoping for a director’s commentary on this one!
Michael Hunter
2022-08-08 10:57:32 +0000 UTCThanks for puting WAW airport :D And it really feels like a Vsauce video - in a very good way. ^_^ Thanks Edit: ...or does it? 🤔 (could not let it slide🤪 - I will let myself out... 😅)

2022-08-08 06:25:08 +0000 UTCTruly one of your best videos yet. Your care and attention to detail will always inspire me.

2022-08-08 02:13:08 +0000 UTCWell worth my money. I teach Search and Rescue, and declination is something we deal with a LOT and that I spend a LOT of time covering. Not anymore! Now I'm just gonna play this video!
Seth Martin
2022-08-08 00:09:40 +0000 UTCGreat video! We laughed, we cried, we looked at each other strangely when the compass didn't match the runway number which then got changed again (which it very much still mostly would). And no Grey, there should not be any leading zeros in runway numbers.

2022-08-07 23:13:19 +0000 UTCAgree, Grey knocked it out of the park. One of the best. Loved every minute.

2022-08-07 23:08:12 +0000 UTCThey might come only every 200,000 years, but when they do, they're awesome!

2022-08-07 23:04:29 +0000 UTCI'm just happy that there's a Secret Life of Walter Mitty reference (I think)

2022-08-07 22:22:20 +0000 UTCMy wife needed to investigate why I was cackling so much. <3

2022-08-07 22:07:04 +0000 UTCAbsolutely brilliant! Fun and educational and very CGP Grey! Just how I like'em!

2022-08-07 22:05:00 +0000 UTCAmazing. Quintisential EduTuber Grey homage. The Avengers: Endgame of your content, lol. I loved all the references to your career this far. :)

2022-08-07 22:00:17 +0000 UTCOne of your best videos, 10/10

2022-08-07 19:46:45 +0000 UTCThe vid that finally convinced me to get onto patreon. You're my spirit animal, Grey. Keep it up.

2022-08-07 19:41:48 +0000 UTCAmazing!
Marco Ferrari
2022-08-07 19:39:44 +0000 UTCThis was an amazing video that flew by! So much info and not dragging at all! So glad to be supporting you and I didn't mean those two aviation puns earlier now that I'm looking at it
Kareem Gouda
2022-08-07 19:21:37 +0000 UTCWow. This is an amazing achievement. It feels in many ways like the maximized educational youtube video: it has a very high density of informational content while also providing constant immediate rewards such as jokes and narrative devices, all supported by engaging animation complex enough to have story and informational elements which exist just in the animation. I have recently been thinking that the art I enjoy the most is that which maximizes that which it is, and this video certainly fits in that group. Proud to be a supporter.
August Pokorak
2022-08-07 19:05:11 +0000 UTCThe best to do it. I always walk away with a deeper understanding of the world around us. You are a masterful educator Grey! Another great video.
Julio Sosa
2022-08-07 18:58:09 +0000 UTCOk, a three-in-one video... That makes sense as to why it took a smidge longer than the standard. Again, sorry for slaggin' ya at Massey Hall. It was not at all deserved.
Bryson Winchester
2022-08-07 18:29:12 +0000 UTCLove the twists!
