big up to the LHC

much like the niche marketing that was the intersection of tacos & fine art photography, we have an excellent example of two seemingly unrelated worlds colliding - physics & hip-hop. behold the large hadron rap by alpinekat:



here's what i consider the highlights:
- guest narration by prof. stephen hawkings 
- excellent sample of "It Takes Two" by the illustrious DJ E-Z Rock & Rob Base
- the fact that "antimatter is nowhere to be found"
- the fact that, turns out, gravity is "weaker than weak". this disturbs me. it is apparently 10 to the 25th power weaker (that's 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 if you are counting) than the Higgs force. 

we are destined to be sucked into a black hole, aren't we?

ps - shout-out to new TFAAF reader, MB for sharing this vid!
