I bought 1000 meters of wire to settle a physics debateAlphaPhoenixYeah, his setup is rather.... suspicious compared to the one AlphaPhoenix did, for example. There was no need for his contraption to demonstrate the effect, but he clearly wanted the largest possible initial spike for his demonstration.

How Electricity Actually WorksVeritasiumIn april 2022, Veritasium made a follow-up video (link), where he revisited the same subject, clarified some of the assumptions involved, and performed another (scaled down) real-world experiment of the original thought experiment, also showing the results of electromagnetic (EM) simulations in Ansys HFSS.

Sidney Coleman, Quantum Mechanics in Your Face [1994]Graduate MathematicsA really good and easy to follow writeup is in Coleman's lecture "Quantum mechanics in your face" (also on youtube ). You're looking for when he's talking about the Diehard experiment. (Which is his way of describing the GHZM argument, a variant of Bell's theorem that is a little easier to follow).

The Rocket & String ParadoxminutephysicsGR: Minute Physics posted a video about Bell's spaceship paradox but I am still confused... I thought this specific kind of problem could benefit from visualization of the kind you sometimes use when transforming the space (or the plane).

The pilot-wave dynamics of walking dropletsMITMathLabIf you really want to delve into alternative solutions of this kind you should probably also look into De-Broglie-Bohm-theory, although personally I find the interpretation as it is right now kind of useless. Here's an interesting experiment with modelled droplets:

What Are Electrons REALLY Doing In A Wire? Quantum Physics and High School MythsAtoms and SporksUsing the Drude Model as an explanation for what electrons do in wires: In the Drude model, electrons are microscopic ping-pong balls and atomic nuclei are bumpers (just like a pinball machine). A video talking in simple terms about this model is here.

Filming the Speed of Light at 10 Trillion FPSThe Slow Mo GuysAs /u/MJMurcott says, we can see some kind of EM wave, namely light. All EM wave is basically the same apart from frequency. This video apparently shows light at an insane amount of FPS, which is what very low frequency EM waves would look life if our eyes were "tuned" to that frequency range. I know it sounds unbeli

There Is Something Faster Than LightVeritasiumExplanation of the Bell test in Veritasium video I was watching this video by Veritasium on the Bell test. At minute 23:27 they explain the experiment proposed by Bell to test locality in quantum mechanics. At 24:18 they explain the disagreement rate in a weird way that leaves me wondering if they made an error or just omitted key information.
