I've seen him double down on being very wrong more than once. I find it hard to take him seriously knowing how very wrong he can be without wavering conviction.
If he's wrong when talking about the topics I do know about, what should I assume about his knowledge of topics I'm less familiar on?
What topics? And who is the "he"? The previous comment mentioned two people.
Sorry, Veritasium. And it's been a while since I've watched his stuff, so I don't remember which videos annoyed me. I know there was one that involved electricity that was just extremely wrong in a few key ways.
What video and how was it wrong?
It's been a while since I saw it, and I don't plan on re-finding nor rewatching just to figure out what I hated at the time. I recall it was one about electricity, and there was something about claims that are fundamentally impossible within the realms of physics.
But what sorts of claims? He's made many videos about electricity. Was it the one about electric fields and incredibly long lengths of wire? Because Alpha Phoenix experimentally confirmed it
