Chris D'Elia Tries to Understand the Concept of Space Time 

Fuck it I’m done!!!!!

Chris is one of the only comedians that genuinely consistently makes me laugh out loud

If Chris made an animated tv series where we could visually see what’s going on in his head, would be gold

Neil “Degrees” Tyson 😂

13:07 Will: "Say that again?" neil: "The faster you move-" Will "Yes that's what you just said yeah" VERTICAL POTATOS.

Vertical potatoes literally had me crying dude! 😂😂😂

We're having a silly space time continuum

This is why understanding space-time is hard to do with an accurate definition. It’s much easier to understand with an analogy. The best analogy in my opinion, is to think of space time as a vertical potato.

Vertical Potatoes. It's gotta be a band's name.

Hands down the funniest shit he has done. This should be a mini series.

Angrily yelling, “Yes!!! I’m sweaty!” made me laugh so hard 🤣🤣😂

you should do more trying to understand complex science videos...this was hilarious

Came here to learn about space time and left with learning how Neil actually got his middle name “Degrees”. Learn something new everyday!

I lost it when he said "fraction of a bitch", I fucking wheezed bro

Literally in physical pain from laughter through the whole vid

"Excuse me, but do you like vertical potatoes?" 🤣🤣🤣

This one was insane!!!! I cant stop laughing. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Pure gold. 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

this was gold lol so glad ur back man

Dude you can make literally anything so fucking funny. Love you mate!

Not only does Chris not know how space-time works, he also doesn’t know how a dictionary works🤣

I saw this last year and couldn’t stop laughing…I laughed so hard this time that I almost fainted into Space and time 😂😂😂

Im just gonna start saying "Thats what I thought" after someone says something really smart.

I watch this at least once a month

con·cept /ˈkänˌsept/ noun: concept; plural noun: concepts an abstract idea; a general notion.

Chris, not everyone is made to be able to understand such concepts. You were made for making people laugh, and you're killing it 😂

"There is an infinite amount of milk" 9:13

D'elia's impression of Neil deGrasse Tyson is uncanny!!

"Oh, it is, some guy?!" I say this too much now.

this is one of the funniest bits he’s had ever

Choked on my cigarette when he said Neil Degrees Tyson

"Narrow it down.." as it's already 1 short sentence lol

Space is like Callen's skin. Over time, it will start to expand. And Gravity is like the dents.

I'm sweating yes 👍

I would buy 10 shirts if they all had different variations of "Vertical Potatoes."

I love Chris 😂😂😂😂 never stop the comedy 😂❤️

I love Neil deGrasse Tyson, but Chris' bit about how he describes things was on point XD Fucking brilliant.

I actually love his Star Talk podcast and how he explains stuff lol

The vertical potatoes got me 😂

Don’t you hate it when dictionaries do that thing where they explain words to people who might be learning them for the first time

This video deserves way more views. One of the funniest clips on RU-vid.

“What the flying shit house” is something I’m definitely going to be using from now on lol

There is space in my eye

space-time, you can't have one without the other. That is it.

Keep it simple Chris, spacetime is space and time together, without time you cant move through space and without space you cant move through time

You should watch Niel Degrees talking to Katy Perry… hilarious 😂

Here we go chris, disregarding the physics and maths real quick - just real simple... you want to meet someone how do you do it. Meet me in Times Square ... ok, well ... when? Meet me at 3 o'clock ... ok, well ... where? To get on the same page you need to give them a place AND a time. Otherwise youll never meet. That coordinate you set for a meeting is a coordinate of space-time. 3 dimensional space is east-west, north-south, up-down... you can set a coordinate point in that 3 dimensional space for someone to meet you, but you'll never meet unless you add another coordinate of time ... which acts as the 4th dimension. Spacetime is what we all move through. And we all move through it at the same speed... as beings with mass we move mostly through time, and slowly through space... while a photon with zero mass moves exclusively through space and not at all through time. The closer you get to moving that speed through space (the speed of light) the slower and slower you move through time... thats called dilation, thanks Einstein.

“NARROW IT DOWN!”

I know this won't matter, I'm just doing it for me to see if I can type it out and such have understood it properly: Space time is the idea that time and space are fused together. Before the concept of space time, they were seen (in science) as two different conepts. Time was a vehicle for chemical reactions to take place, and space was the place in which they take place. The origin of the concept of space time, as I have understood it, comes from astronomy and the time dialation that can occur around maaaaaassive objects in space. Now this is the part I have no understanding of, and I think it's mainly theoretical, but around a black hole (a very, very, very massive thing) time will slow down, or speed up I don't even know which one, as you get closer to it. The idea then is that as the fabric of space (or just space, to naaaarrow it DOWN) bends under weight, and so does time, because of reasons. In conclusion, I also don't know shit about space time, but apparantly I liked to think I did before typing out this comment. You live and you learn.

I’m an astrophysics and chemistry undergrad and this was hilarious and totally relatable. Especially when I try to explain things to my non astrophysics friends lol

This dude lives in the meta

3:21 to 4:28 is all you need to see

It’s basically saying space or time cannot exist without one another

😂ringin that towel dry!!! 😂

Opposite of Time/ Space... one is river and the other is a hotdog, everyone and everything is one infinite creator and elfs are creating unbelievable clockwork devices that make words dimension.

Vertical Potatoes 😂😂😂😂

ive seen this vid billions and billions times

I can explain spacetime: You have a Doctor's appointment. You need 4 coordinates: an Avenue, a Street, a floor and finally a time. That's it... The rest is maths.

Dude, just watch Brian Cox shows. He is the best at explaining things in simple terms.

Omfg his milk thing literally sounded like an episode of Cosmos lmao

I’m at my cubicle looking like a crazy person trying not to laugh!

Chris - you are my favorite ornery person - and I mean that in a good way - thank you to Chris and Matts dad for raising your sons the way you did ❤😂

Me, understanding the concept of time and three dimensional space regarded as a four dimensional continuum, with vertical potatoes on my face...

Dog this got me rollin

4:47 Aww, that moment when his brain broke.

Fuck man just the intro of this video has me weak af! Love you Chris! Watch all your videos!

Are we still allowing Chris bullying me?

Learned a lot about milk.

The irony that Chris would actually be an awesome live action Rick in a Rick and Morty movie or series is proof of something profound

Ur comedy will save the world

This is an instant classic Chris

Hello sir, do you happen to like *vertical* potatoes?

“I’m sweaty yes!”😂

The Neil voice milk bit was so good 😂😂

Bruh Im just reading the caption, haven't even clicked on the video, and I'm quietly laughing to myself. Let's listen to Chris D'fuckin Elia explain Einsteinian physics. Sock it to me Chris😂 IDGAF this video is six months old. I'm hyped!

Love you buddy, never stop posting.

OMFG I HAVE NEVER LAUGHED THIS HARD

I’ve been trying to understand what a fucking teaseract cube is for 18 years. No clue.

Vertical Potatoes is gonna be my new band name

The time loop recognition though, because already ejected himself out of the space time continuum definition jet!lol

genius comedy here ....observing the little detail

I asked chat gpt to explain it to me like I’m a 5 year old. “Imagine space and time like a big, stretchy blanket. When you put something heavy on the blanket, like a ball, it makes a dent. Now, if you roll another smaller ball nearby, it will start moving toward the bigger dent created by the first ball. In a similar way, big things like planets make dents in space and time, and smaller things, like moons, move around those dents. That's a bit like how the space-time continuum works, with gravity pulling things together.”

I thought that was a clip from Drunken History. Space Edition.

Almost fuckin peed my pants. This is gold

"That's what I thought!" OH IT IS, SOME GUY?!

I wish it ended after “how about narrow it down”

Nothing like reading a definition and needing another definition for that one 😂

The explanation is for people who already know what it is.

Love Chris.

Thank you, thank you!! Hysterical laughter. I needed that!! Ahhh, Life Rips. Gang gang, buzz buzz, SOAR!!!

Chris is the funniest, most entertaining comedy personality inn the cosmos. I hope that he makes billion dollars, and becomes president!

It's the concepts of time *and* 3 dimensional space...

Neil 'DaGreaze' Tyson - The Saucy Scientist

As soon as i saw the title I knew this would get fffffffffu****g hillarious

“LeBron french for TheBron” 😂

need a callen episode

Jaleal Degrass Tyson, Anddddddd I'm crying laughing

Theoretically, if one were to throw the potatoes at a goof across the table, would it not be “horizontal potatoes”?

2:58 The way he says "tTIME?" lmaoo

William Shat-ner

it’s 4am and i’m laughing so fuxking hard at this
