I came here because the thumbnail showed some bald headed dude who appeared to be setting his own head on fire. I doubt I'm going to actually see this, so I'm just going to take off, again, without watching.
Damit man hes good!!,reminds me of that other chemist…idk his name but hes British with white / grey afro hair with glasses….like I said idk his name but that cat has it going on
I wood'nt do this at home
Lmaoooo 35:13
He makes my day! π
Thank you very much indeed
he talks too much
I came here to watch a chemistry lecture and now I'm listening to Romanian music and learning the violin. Wonderful lecture!
end bit — "keep very quiet children"… <flash> Adult — "Wooo!"
After watching first 10 minutes: IQ Level + 100
Brilliant!
Andres, Andres! Andres, Andres, Andres, Oscar, Andres!!
was the answer lithium?
SUPERB…the least thing I can say!!
genius full of passion … no wonder he plays music as well!!
Brawo Panie Andrzeju, super pokaz. Pozdrawiam.
If I had to name a hero these days, it would be you sir. Wonderfully explained.
Just to correct: Benzene was first discovered in the second half of the 17th century by Johann Rudolph Glauber and then later Faraday rediscovered it.
I have learned so much from 3 videos! Great teacher!
Dam, so long winded, 2 mins and I wanted to sleeeeeeep
Fantastic really entertaining ???
Wonderfully simple simplified and very very entertaining and I like the energy
For the love of god I do not understand why Prof Szydlo's video's dont have more views and likes. I abolutely LOVED chemistry when I was in highschool and this man has completely re-invigorated my love for the subject. Thank you.
This was more entertaining than educational. And "the safety squad" that talked over him ruined the show.
Is he determined to burn down Faraday's desk? lol
I really did try to watch but I couldn't stand the speed that he talks. It started off as slightly amusing and after 10 minutes became bloody annoying.
Dear Mr. Andrew Szydlo I want to congratulate you for being a SUPER teacher. The studnts that have the honor to know you should be proud and gratefull. Thank you very much for transmiting a us litle part of your big knowledge.
anyone wanna see the q&a?
O my Lord
