History's Greatest Physicist - Richard Feynman

Richard Feynman. Period.

1. For starters, he spent his spare time in strip bars solving physics equations while sketching girls .
2. His last word were “ I'd hate to die twice, it is so boring “
3. Feynman belonged to the phi beta Delta fraternity . He once unhinged the door of a room which belonged to a member of the fraternity and hid it which lead the fraternity on a wild goose chase to find the culprit . Interestingly on two occasions he admitted that he was the one who hid it in a sarcastic tone and no one belived him .
4. When travelling in Brazil he taught physics courses, learned to play an instrument called frigideira and participated in a samba school. Oh, not to mention he plays the bongo too.
5. Believe it or not, Feynman had a minor role in a movie called Anti-Clock where he played a professor
6. When young Richard Feynman got bored in the remote New Mexico desert, where he was working on the Manhattan project, he found another hobby — cracking safes. Eventually he became so good, he could open nearly every cabinet containing secret documents. For a fun discussion of this neat story check out this great video from Numberphile.

Feynman had a van decorated in his famous diagrams.

Feynman was a mind reader . Yes you read that right .

I suggest everyone to read “surely you are joking Feynman “ maybe a little bit of badass rubs over us .

It completely slipped my mind . He won the Nobel Prize.
