I don't agree. There are fantastic documentaries out there. Modern graphics and powerful cameras add a lot of extra value!

There is a major thing missing in this beautiful video. The video shows only the actual experiments done by Faraday, which look trivial today but were indeed not trivial then since so many looked in this same direction and could not find results. What made the difference, and is lacking in this video, is Faraday's theoretical contribution, which I feel is no less critical than his experimental contribution, and the former led directly to the latter. Faraday was not using mathematics much, but he had a genius imagination of the kind Newton and Einstein had: Faraday could visualize the electric and magnetic fields in his mind's eye, and he did thousands of thought experiments before discovering his physical experiments. Faraday realized that the fields are independent entities and are the major players - not the charges, currents, or bar magnets. In my opinion, this transition from massive particles to fields and waves is as great as the best of what Newton ever did. Only Faraday's fields enabled electromagnetism, relativity, and quantum mechanics to be later discovered. James Clerk Maxwell read the writing of Faraday carefully and, as he says it himself: All I had to do was just to translate Faraday's insight into mathematics. This enabled Maxwell to discover the full and complete laws of electromagnetism and deduce the existence of electromagnetic waves and discover that visible light is an electromagnetic wave. Maxwell was the only one able to make this genius breakthrough since he internalized Faraday's insight which was so different than the understanding of other mathematicians of his time. In short, Faraday was a theoretical physicist as much as he was an experimental physicist. The last claim is not so apparent since he was not using mathematics. Still, his thinking was as deductive as mathematics is. Einstein is similar to Faraday in this respect since Einstein imagined relativity first and only then used elementary mathematics to describe his special relativity. With the same imagination and insight, Einstein discovered general relativity - not the so many better mathematicians who tried the same thing and failed. In my opinion, the genius imagination makes all significant breakthroughs in theoretical physics. Mathematics is no more than a language. Dr. David Goren

It's easy to take all these genius discoveries for granted. But imagine if there was no Volta, no Faraday, no Maxwell, No Einstein ... the world we live in today would have been a different world and you wouldn't have the luxury to watch these videos on KZread.

@TULL FORIXhim, for sure.

Michael Faraday, the greatest experimental scientist in the 19th century. Electricity generation by mechanical means is his greatest contribution to the mankind. It was 1st single phase AC that he dicovered in 1831 and within 70 yrs it developed into our present day ubiquitous 3-Phase AC system by later the inventions mainly by the Dolivo Dobrovolsky, Steinmetz, Tesla ....

Man, the quality of these types of videos has gone downhill, shows u don't need fancy technology to make a super interesting informative science video

I really enjoyed this film, and learned a lot. And I'm an admirer of the Braggs, père et fils. I believe that the first 24 minutes (roughly) of this upload feature the son, Lawrence, in a film made in the fifties (notice references to atomic power). After that is a short film made in 1931, the centennary of Faraday's discovery of induction, and the presenter is the father, William. The son Lawrence in particular is remembered for his pioneering work in x-ray crystallography. There's a couple of great uploads about the Braggs in the context of this hugely important tool for scientific investigation (used to image the DNA helix by Rosalind Franklin).

Amazing. We owe these brilliant minds forever.

22:34 ... and almost 70 years later, we're still hoping for a breakthrough.

I am a boy and I love Michael Faraday . Father of Modern World.

Thank you for bring the world in electricity.

R.I.P. Michael Faraday (*1791-+1867)

So awesome! What a superb documentary, with such style, communicating this amazing history. Too bad physics degrees today just jump in with equations - as if their meaning was "intuitively obvious" - when in fact they were devised to explain these incredible observations. So glad I found this, thanks!

Astonishingly, the actor playing the role of Faraday is still alive - 104!

Great 2 documentaries on the eminent physicist sir Michael Faraday. :)

@John Ashtone Yes, I realised some time after. I believe that was to do with the particular sect of Christianity Mr Faraday followed. Although, you could just call him sir as a sign of respect. :)

Excellent! Thanks so much for the video!! Every school should show this to the students.

Just think: This documentary was made before TV! People had to go to a film screening room (a movie theatre) to watch this.

An excellent production. Thank you for posting it Ri.

Great. Rest in peace forever Mr.FARADAY. ❤

Thankyou so much for wonderful experiments of Micheal Faraday with details in a beautiful short film

Michael Faradey is God Gifted scientist....

Excellent content, and informative. Faraday is the genius who wrote the books with his hands which James Clerk Maxwell translated into the Greek equations for the world. They''re Maxwell's equations but Faraday discovered 95 percent of the material contained within them.

@@zack_120 Maxwell took Faraday's books and drawings and translated them into equations and in doing so Maxwell expanded upon Faraday's work and proved Faraday was right and found that EM propigated at C, so that Faraday was right all along even though he could not express his ideas about "invisible light" with equations. Everyone else here can add to my memory.

thank you. i am a ham radio operator kf6uxj. when we took our tests we just recited answers in question pools . this gives background to the why. i have saved these for future reference .

Wohh.. Really fascinating.. Thank you so much Ri....

Excellent.. thank you.

MY ADMIRATION TO THE RI THAT THROUGH THIS DOCUMENTARY FILM RI STARTED TO RECORD ITS GLORIFIED HERITAGE OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCHES . THANKS !

Great video...👍

If Faraday and others had had a good understanding of conservation of energy, they would have been able to deduce that a steady magnetic field could not induce a continuing current in wire loops. In fact, the idea that a constant magnetic field could produce a constant current would allow the production of free energy and a perpetual motion machine - just hook up a motor to a wire loop, and put a magnet in the loop. Don't get me wrong - these guys were wicked smart and perseverant, and physics was really just getting started at that point! But a modern physicist could very quickly eliminate this possibility by thought alone.

Super freaking awesome

Thank you

Awesome!

Fascinating story of genius People.

thanks

I want to understand, how ammeter and galvanometer works in those days, on what principle?

Don't forget, a devout Bible-believing Christian! Like all the greats of Modern Science.

Electricity is not produced by magnetism. Mechanical power is used to move a magnet within a coil of wire, and that induces an electrical charge to travel via a conductor. That transmitted power can be converted back into mechanical power at the other end.

Not from 1931 when a 1950's car drives down the road.
