Hannah Fry Instagram – Yes, okay if you really want to be a stickler about it, i’ll admit. The particle physicists probably overall had a slightly bigger impact on the outcome of ww2.. 💣 But im still taking this as a win for the mathmos. 🪖
EDIT: You’ll notice the audio is a bit off in this one – my apologies. It’s because, even though your girl can do second order partial differential equations with her eyes closed, she apparently doesn’t know the difference between stereo and mono audio channels when it comes to editing videos. It will never happen again I promise. 🙏
