Great thanks Mibn !
and look here he is on viddie !
1962 - he was already a nobel prize winner and he was asked to give the first year uni lectures on phys and did so.
and it was deemed at the time sufficiently important to be filmed
but down loading on U tube was the real trick.
One claim to fame was that he was knocking around equations for Helium and came up with a long formula
and went like:
' my God, this is a fluid equation but it doesnt have a viscosity term - so I have discovered the theoretical basis of super-fluidity......'
smart guy

Thank you as well Peter. I always enjoy videos featuring Richard Feynman. I doubt that I am the first to make the observation that Feynman's demeanour is much like that of a child that never grew up, which I can only attribute to the fact that he was able to maintain his childlike curiosity for the world he experienced throughout his life.
Feynmann was able to carry off his child-like simplicity. Being a nobel prize winner doubtless helped.
I had a colleague who feigned ( ha! pun intended ) this child like demeanour and it just made him look like a crank. He was a notorious liar as well, so the juxta position of innocence ( feigned) and obvious duplicity, a lot us found sickening....
I think he (F) did the challenger washers/seals ( the ones that fractured because it was too cold ) in a similar vein, which since it involved deaths, people couldnt take
