    so much money and effort into these research and what have we got so far – dark matter that needs to be identified, the high chances of extra dimensions, the mistery of the origin of matter prior to the Big Bang ?
    Are we better positioned than a Middle Ages monk meditating on his bible?
    I would like to think so, but are we?????

    she’s so confused :)

    His head is huge compared to hers.

    @gaussalmighty

    Hehe. I guess Witten is the silverback among those CERN-physicists, and she knows it.

  5. gaussalmighty says:

    She is definitely throwing it at him. Hair flip, running hand through her hair…

    @gringoroko This whole interview is charmingly awkward.

  7. polymath7 says:

    @dudemandude999 Uh, yeah, his come on line was, “Would you like to see my naked singularity”?

  8. maazzzeeeemaazzzeeee says:

    “Would it be a big discovery?”
    Hahahaaaaaa
    She is so funny!

    Two things I like about Ed Witten, 1 – He is a living example of Einsteins mantra that if you cant explain something simply, it means you don’t understand it well enough. He explains things beautifully. 2 – He is completely devoid of an ego. He has a passion for what he does and he’s not doing it to be a famous physicist, very refreshing.

    Is this a joke?! What kind of nitwit is doing this interview? What is wrong with that woman? Lack of Braincells? She has a nasty accent. The way she behaves is like a BJ slut. She’s also looking in the camera… touches her nose and strokes her hair.
    Ed thinks… what kind of bizarre interview is this? He is looking at the camera too.
    Perhaps there is no one behind it. This interview is a dark matter.

    i am sure , the interviewer is not getting anything……….

  12. MrJamesness says:

    nah it was 11 times one for each dimension

  13. GluttonForSex says:

    @dudemandude999 I swear, I must be one of the few nerds in the world who doesn’t prefer white women. I’m starting to think it’s something to be proud of, actually.

  14. LITTLER0CKAR says:

    she’s like, “what the hell is this guys saying? hmmm. yes…”

  15. totallyrandom02 says:

    I trust in witten!

    inscects bitch

  18. mrqsilveira says:

    (5:40) Feel extra-dimensions? I cannot visualize extra-dimensions… Just look at themselves! The Strong Principle of Equivalence states a connection of Life and Extra-dimensions, doesn’t it?

  19. mrqsilveira says:

    Witten had to be a big man to harmonize with a needed startling profile: to find out supersymmetry as is his profound desire (0:36) one needs this very ancient abrahamic artifact – a king’s nose! – to sniff into the recesses of mind. Just a nature’s supersymmetric quality!

  20. TrollerSupreme says:

    Witten is of sub-Transcendental-Genius, unlike me.. Of Course.

    Now if you’ll pardon me, I have some better things to do with my time.

    What do you people think, that you are worthy of my time? Inscects!

  21. BluCosmos says:

    Great video. Beautiful weather. And lovely interviewer. ;)

  22. Pastafarealist says:

    I want to fuck Witten and I’m a heterosexual male!
    He looks pretty big for a scientist.

    @hockeydawg17 stfu. you can’t even spell infinite. you have no right to call someone a moron. clearly you have never actually studied any of this.

  24. LogicalFlawDetector says:

    @dudemandude999
    Hahaha!

    Funny! But he is married.
