Something wrong with the clip?

Dennis Scott:
I was quite interested in that experiment of yours, with the Reindeer tail group. Would you like to tell me just what your idea is?
Theodore Honey:
Well, it's rather difficult to explain a thing like that in words of one syllable.
Dennis Scott:
Well, I have managed as much as two syllables on occasion, Mr. Honey.
Theodore Honey:
Well, to put it as simply as I can, the purpose of my work has been to arrive at an end result for the original theoretical hypotheses of Kerslinger, of Bâle and Schilgarde of Uppsala, in which they postulate vibration as a source of energy. I reasoned that since this energy does not appear in any of the ordinary forms, such as heat or electrical potential, it must be absorbed by the metal itself. And that sufficient absorption would result in nuclear fission of the aluminum atom in an isotopic form with crystalline affinities.
Dennis Scott:
I see. And that means the tail will fall off.
Theodore Honey:
Exactly.

I was quite interested in that experiment of yours with the reindeer tail group
00:00:05.379 --> 00:00:07.965
Would you like to tell me just what your idea is
00:00:08.132 --> 00:00:12.303
Well it's rather difficult to explain a thing like that in words of one syllable
00:00:12.047 --> 00:00:16.515
Well I have managed as much as two syllables on occasion Mr Honey
00:00:17.433 --> 00:00:19.031
Well to put it as simply as I can
00:00:19.352 --> 00:00:22.229
the purpose of my work has been to arrive at an end result
00:00:22.271 --> 00:00:24.482
for the original theoretical hypotheses
00:00:24.523 --> 00:00:27.026
of Kerslinger of Bale and Schilgarde of Uppsala
00:00:27.001 --> 00:00:30.404
in which they postulate vibration as a source of energy
00:00:30.655 --> 00:00:34.367
I reasoned that since this energy does not appear in any of the ordinary forms
00:00:34.408 --> 00:00:36.041
such as heat or electrical potential
00:00:36.452 --> 00:00:38.001
it must be absorbed by the metal itself
00:00:38.496 --> 00:00:42.054
And that sufficient absorption would result in nuclear fission of the aluminum atom
00:00:42.541 --> 00:00:45.503
in an isotopic form with crystalline affinities
00:00:46.253 --> 00:00:47.254
I see
00:00:48.589 --> 00:00:51.467
And that means the tail will fall off Exactly
