Feynman’s Time Paradox That Makes the Past and Future Collapse

Описание: ⏳ What if the past and future aren’t as separate as they feel?

We talk about time as if it’s neatly divided — the past is gone, the future hasn’t happened yet, and the present is all that exists.
But according to Richard Feynman and the actual equations of physics, that picture quietly falls apart.

At the deepest level, the laws that govern reality don’t prefer yesterday over tomorrow. The mathematics that describe particles, fields, and forces work almost identically whether time runs forward or backward. And that leads to a paradox so strange it makes the boundary between past and future start to collapse.

🧠 This video explores a disturbing idea Feynman emphasized again and again:

The laws of physics do not distinguish the past from the future.

⚡ We begin with a simple question:
Why can you remember yesterday but not tomorrow — if the equations don’t care which way time flows?

From there, we uncover:
→ Why fundamental physics is almost perfectly time-symmetric
→ How entropy, not laws, creates the arrow of time
→ Why the universe looks ordered in the past and disordered in the future
→ How probability — not mechanics — separates memory from prediction
→ Why Feynman rejected mystical explanations of time

💥 When you follow the equations all the way down, the idea of a “fixed past” and an “open future” starts to blur. Not philosophically — mathematically.

This isn’t speculation.
This is how physicists actually calculate reality.
