It was nice to watch this again. I picked up on several things I don't think I remembered from an earlier viewing. Actually the quality of the audio and video seems even nicer than I remember and could be a contributing factor in this. I should take to heart this theme of seeking adventure. The older I become the less variety I find in living and there's little excuse for being so closed.

Your Last Sentence of this was exactly what I was thinking almost the entire video. I think I know more about Tannu Tuva than I knew about Feynman but I do know what hes famous for. I never realized how similar he is to myself. Extremely smart, Very Adventurous, and I decline fame to the point where I almost dont like people that much. Plus hes obviously from tout East, somewhere like Network or Boston and lived in LA. I'm from Boston and Live in LA too . watching this and reading your comment has opened my eyes allot and i'm getting older myself. I'ts those anonymous people in life who teach me more then people who are paid to teach me something. Which I'm sure is how Feynman was also.

I'm always mystified when an individual claims they dislike 'people', like everyone is just some generic entity. You can't be anything like Feynmann because he appreciated the relationships of the 'people' he encountered uniquely for who they are, except if they attempted to be posers - that's the real reason he almost declined the prize (not the fame). He didn't want to be given a 'uniform' that would put him on a pedestal because his father taught him to value people on their individual merit.

I'm so glad Richard Feynman, whose lecture videos my brother and I love to watch, retained his clarity, acuity and sense of fun and adventure til the end. May the memory of this great, mischievous genius never be forgotten. If there is an afterlife, surely he is poking and prodding at the boundaries of it right now.

A story, probably mere anecdote, was relayed to me by friends at Princeton. When offered a position on the senior faculty, he requested to teach some Fresman math. The first day of class. Feynman walks in and begins to write a one paragaph formulae on the blackboard. Feynman rurned to the class and said,"OK. you saw what I wrote so you how I got the proof. Pleas write your proof down. You have 30 minutes. Theree is a subtle but perceptible disquiet among the under graduates. They were in this classroom because they were chosen for the honor and opportunity to be there. A student, bolder than most raises his hand and says, "Dr. I'm baffled. Could you please go through that again to help us understand?. "Sure," says Feynman. Heturns and faces the blackboard, puts his hand under his chin and no one hears speaks or moves for 3 minutes and Turns to face the class and says, "There, is that better.? After some muttering, A student asks again and Feynman happily answers"sure." This senareo is repeated once more until Feynman turs to the class and says"C'mon, guys. I have done it three different ways. You should d get it by now.

I have had this nut to crack in my brain for nearly three decades. Richard Feynman's name was planted there with my own discovery of Tuva through its' music and remoteness... when Tuvan music hit my ears for the first time here in the USA in 1994, I was enthralled by wonder. I was transported to the Asian steppes full of wanderlust as Feynman explains beautifully here. It was in the liner notes of the recordings I was listening to that I first discovered the name Richard Feynman. That name has been a brain worm ever since. His unorthodox keeps popping up more and more now in 2023 in these times of "Trust the Science" & Fauci spewing "I am the science"...I can relax in remembrance of Richard saying something like (I will murder this quote), Science is the belief that the experts are wrong Thank You for this video. It reveals a better window into Richard's character than any of the other "biographies" I have found. Who knew how much he liked orange juice Again, Thank You!

To anyone who has come back to rematch this video: Read the book 'Tuva or Bust' about this adventure written by Ralph Leighton himself.

An absurdly wonderful and insightful look into the other side of a somewhat unknown yet highly regarded and under rated genius. Plain spoken and providing explanations of everyday physics, which was his everyday job to his students, this film provides and shows the fun and driven side of adventure for a guy that hated to be bored. Imagine him as a practical joker during the Manhattan Project of which he was part of, yet he solved so many simple problems that others could not see even when those problems were in front of their very noses. His escape from that same secret base to marry his beloved...It was always about adventure with him............. As a life long fan of Professor Feynman, I regret to say, but I will, his book,' Tuva or Bust' sits in plain sight ready to be read in my library. I think this film says it all. With only a few minutes to go here, the tears flowed. But from me, no spoilers. This film is special and a must see. 100 years old. Now that's a goal. I wish he could of achieved that one...He said as his last words, "I wouldn't want to die twice, it's so boring" ~Richard Feynman

Dick Feynman and I shared many things only beginning with 2/3s of our names and a great curiosity of all things. On his last office day at Caltech I called his office and missed him by 5 minutes. His secretary was very kind to me and even sent me a complimentary Caltech shirt, which I still have from 1988! I was crushed when I learned that he would never return to his office to retrieve my message and call me back. He was the most original physicist of the 20th century, surpassing Einstein for his work on Quantum Electrodynamucs and particularly for developing his revolutionary FEYNMAN DIAGRAMS, which are used daily. His line will not be seen again.

A few years back I took a World Music class from University of Pennsylvania via Coursera, and Tuvan music was our topic for one week of the course. Genghis Blues was assigned to us to watch. I was surprised that there was no mention of Paul Pena in the documentary, but it was brilliant without it. Feynman was quite engaging and I am sad he's no longer with us, although he would be 105 by now.
