-Are you afraid of falling down?<br>-No, I'm afraid of the ground hitting me up at an acceleration of 9.8m/s2.

The best Physics teacher a student can ever have is the one that gets confused and asks the same questions as the student, and then explanes it.

Its amazing that Mahesh knew Einstein well enough for them to bounce ideas off of one another.

But sir, I wasn't over speeding. I was stationary, that damn kid was approaching me with 87 Km/hr.

This genre of explaining physics as if somebody is spilling tea is keeping me on the edge of the seat 😂

This guy is so nice that I can totally picture a situation where Einstein or others say "Mahesh let's get to the point" and then going to a party together.

I never understand when I hear gravity is the weakest force. I always think, well, it doesn't exist as a force at all.

Sorry - you still didn’t answer the question of why massive objects curve space time, only how we know that they do.

I once watched someone get hit by a parked car so this explanation was very intuitive to me.
