What Happens to Your ATOMS After You’re Cremated | Feynman’s Physics of Death
Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!
Discover what actually happens to the 7 octillion atoms in your body during cremation — and why physics proves not a single one is destroyed.
This video explores thermodynamics, atomic conservation, and the carbon cycle through the lens of death itself. Learn why your atoms have existed for billions of years and will continue for billions more, and find out where every single one goes after cremation. Whether you’re fascinated by physics, curious about the nature of reality, or wondering what cremation actually does at the atomic level, this will transform how you understand death and existence. Watch now to see matter and energy the way physicists do.
