It's funny - that series of videos is exactly the sort of video that would make someone a YouTube star today. In the same way a teenage girl gains a following after making videos of how to apply makeup, I could easily see Feynman becoming a similar YouTube phenomenon had he lived now and released videos like this on a regular basis. Always fun to imagine people from another era who you know would have been MASSIVE on social media (another one: Robert Townsend -> Twitter).
