For the 18th featured video of the day, I’ve picked Vsauce‘s

Did The Past Really Happen?

Have you ever wondered whether the universe is only a day old? It sounds dumb, but can you disprove it? Really, whatever you say can just be disproved with “That just came into the universe a day ago.” It’s pretty obviously not true, but it is intriguing that we can’t actually prove that it’s wrong. I’m sure philosphers have a field day over it.

Michael Stevens, the man behind the incredibly popular channel Vsauce, talks about this and more in his video Did The Past Really Happen?. With an average of 10 minute videos, Michael has a lot of time to talk, which he uses to it’s fullest by weaving together philosophical, scientific and technological sagas. Many, many topics will be discussed in Vsauce’s average video, sometimes seemingly random topics, but they all make sense when Michael ties them together.

And no matter what, no matter what he talks about, you will always be captivatingly interested. And he definitely did exactly that in his new video, in which he talks about philosophical razors, entropy and more. A must watch, along with the rest of his amazing videos.
