Neil DeGrassee Tyson may be one of the greatest scientific minds of our generation, but when you slow him down he sounds kinda like that hippy you knew in college.

Thanks to Ebaumsworld for sharing this video. Neil is asked to tell who is the greatest physicist in history. In normal speed his answer would be great. He's well spoken, but doesn't talk above anyone. Even a person of just average intelligence would understand what he's saying and be able to follow along.

But, you just turn that speed down and suddenly everything changes. Neil suddenly becomes that guy you met at a party who was wearing tie-dye and smelled a little bit like patchouli.
