At least the reindeer experiment will confirm the theory of gravity, if nothing else.

At 2:20 he makes a logical error. You can never attest to the likelihood of something's truth, as Hume pointed out in his evaluation of induction. At 6:30 he kind of addresses this. It also goes to show that you can't actually prove positives in science, science only deals with negatives. The only way to test is try and draw out the contradiction, but the contradiction isn't known until it occurs. There is no logical reason to believe any scientific "proof" is ever fundamentally true, only that it isn't false...yet.

Even so, fun video and worth an upvote enough though I think it still propagates a few misconceptions.
