when I was student studying basic of all materials in simple literatures the Bohra's atomic model and Rutherfurd's cyclotron I want to know more about the subject. Now your video gives all back up history for the same in your part makes me as I made the experiment. Then as my part feel like I am the one who discovered all these and not any others including yourself.

Einstein was asked if they would ever split the atom. He said would never happen it is impossible. The same with atom bomb Einstein said mathematics proved it wouldn't happen. Another mathematician went to him and proved mathematics allowed the atom bomb. He was the one wrote the letter <br>To fdr and said Germans will going build the bomb. Einstein just signed the bottom.

Downvoted the video and blocked your channel. Too much visual noise. What did you <i><b>want</b></i><b></b> to do with the bright flashes of light? No matter what you <i><b>wanted</b></i><b></b> it to do, it got your channel blocked. Bye.
