I just finished a 2nd book about Richard Feynman in a few hours (I basically devoured it) and went searching more about him and his life. I ran into this video and it was the first time I've seen him. He's such a remarkable figure and his out look on life is amazingly as remarkable. I only wish I had come to know about Feynman earlier, but I'm glad I know and read about him. I'm deeply moved. Thanks Feynman for such wisdom in life and how to live your life like an adventure. And Touva does sound great as a next traveling destination.
- devijvers 16y agoIf you want to get a feel of what Tuva's like have a look at the Mongolia episode of Long Way Round: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5538321375706386968 http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5538321375706386968 They drive through the Altay mountains which is next to Tuva and is the mythical home land of the Turkic people.
- nlanier 16y agoMight I ask which books you've read about him? Thanks.
- grosales 16y agoYou might want to read Tuva or Bust! by Ralph Leighton. It features Feynman as he and Ralph planned their trip to Tuva. With that said, it's a good book but I prefer the first two books because they are more about Feynman's thoughts and ideas than anything.
- jey 16y agoHere's a great interview with Feynman, many of the clips in the "Last Journey of a Genius" video are from it: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=the%20pleasure%20of%20finding%20things%20out http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=the%20pleasure%20of...
