I can't begin to tell you how much this show shaped who I am! We need more programs like this!

As a young child I watched Mr wizard every time it came on.... He makes science fun and educational...... In depth explanation that a kid could understand...

"In fact, a long time ago they used to have a series of pictures inside of a box, and you turned a handle and you saw one picture after another like that, and people paid five cents to go in and see 'em." Mr. Wizard described a nickelodeon. Persistence of vision is also why we can perceive images on television. The phosphor decay of even an 80s CRT television set was very rapid, and the only reason why we could see a whole picture instead of just colored lines scanning down the screen is because our eyes blended all the phosphor glows together because the scanning happened too rapidly for us to see.

I born in 1951 when I was old enough to watch the show. It was in black-and-white of course. Mr. Wizard was my hero. He treated the children with respect and dignity. I learned a lot from his TV show . Thank thanks for posting these videos on KZfaq.

Mr. Wizard shut off the light and the real fun time began. Mic drop!!!

That is so cool! I am addicted to this show! And I LOVE Mr. Wizard!😊❤

When Mr. Wizard described a machine which you see hundreds of flipped pages of animation that you only pay a nickel for. You know what it was called? *Nickelodeon*

💯Clear and amazing explanation 🌟

Very Great Explaination It was Great, Thanku for this video

Extraordinary and amazing

Nice video ,it helped me for my exams :)

This really shows you how the idea for the video camera and movie projector came about. A video camera just a machine that can take a series of photographs quickly. And a projector is just a fancy photo negative projector that can display many photographs fast. Your brain is actually the thing creating the illusion of a movie from a series of photographs

Really amazing. Superb....

Clear Explanation.......❤️

This was shown in our school really good video

3:13 was amazing

What's sad about the spinning light trick is that most Digital cameras used in video production have such fast shutter and record speeds, the tail of the light is considerably diminished compared to the old analog cameras that were used before Digital TV.

It was awesome

How can we make this one??!

That IS neat!

I like this video 😁

Great 👍👍

Did Mr. Wizard reference the concept of the nickelodeon on his kid friendly science show?

thats good!!

link plz

I remember this video vividly. It was playing in the background one afternoon when the worst thing that ever happened to me occurred. I believe it was 1988 when I came home from school one sunny, breezy afternoon. This was playing on the TV when I got through the front door, so I plopped myself down after throwing my book bag next to the shoe pile near the front door. As I watched, I remember how neat the animations looked. At precisely the part with the juggling clown, I noticed the smell of burnt cookies coming from the kitchen. I stood up and yelled for my mom and listened. I could hear... crying. Wailing actually. It was my mother. I immediately ran to the kitchen to see my mom splayed out on the floor. I thought at first that she might be injured, but what she told me was much worse. She stopped sobbing hysterically just long enough to tell me that in 10 years - in 1998 The Undertaker would throw Mankind off the Hell in a Cell where he will plummet 16 feet through an announcer's table. Needless to say, I was speechless.

amazing

OMG I own that book! Found it at a Goodwill for $1.99. :)

Wow

Phi fenomenal.

Genial

You are best to show persistent of vision

Shows like this need to come back, but chamces are it would be ridiculed for providing knowledge.
