Old, but cool. A video similar to this was shown once in my physics class when we were doing an introduction to variations in size.

I have that book from back in the 80s. It's hella badass, and in the book it goes into this dude's hand instead of a leaf. And since people are better than plants, I liked that better.

But this was still hellamuh badass.

NOVA's The Elegant Universe has a better one, in my opinion. Fewer views, but the end one is worth the lack.

It all makes sense!

That's why the Universe is so weird!
