1
Oh, Little Kitty, you can't fly like those fictional superheroes.
2
The gravity will pull you down.
3
Stupid gravity!
4
Oh no, Little Kitty.
5
Gravity isn't stupid, but a super force necessary for a planet's existence.
6
Losing it even for a few seconds can have a devastating impact on our lives.
7
Wait a minute, that's an interesting situation to explore.
8
Hey friends, so in today's episode, let us see how life on Earth would be without this powerful force called Gravity.
9
And answer a hypothetical question.
10
What if we lost gravity for 5 seconds?
11
Zoom in! So, what is gravity?
12
Well, as we know it, gravity is a force that the Earth exerts on everything around it.
13
This includes everything from the smallest pebbles to the tallest skyscrapers.
14
Anything that has mass is in the grasp.
15
Although the absence of gravity seems to be a fun situation after seeing those astronauts floating in space movies.
16
And some of you might secretly wish for its disappearance so that you can fly freely.
17
However, you might not want that to happen
18
if you fully understood what would happen if gravity ever decides to call it quits, even for 5 seconds.
19
According to the experts, such a situation would never ever occur.
20
But for the sake of this video and to know about the importance of this almighty force,
21
let us assume what would happen if someone with a desire to fly decides to turn off gravity.
22
Well, in that case, the first thing that will happen is that everything will go for a toss instantly.
23
Yes, not only you, but also the vehicles, garbage, animals and so on.
24
Even the things rooted deep inside the ground like trees,
25
poles, buildings etc. will not remain intact for a long time and will eventually start tumbling and rolling madly around the earth.
26
And as the Earth spins faster along the equator, so the impact of lack of gravity would be felt the most over there.
27
Yes, in the middle of the planet,
28
you could experience winds almost six times more powerful than the ones produced by cyclones.
29
This means that in just five seconds,
30
you could be swept as far as 2.3 kilometers in any direction,
31
along with other objects and water from all the water bodies around the world.
32
Simultaneously, without gravity, the Earth's atmosphere would disappear as all the gases will float up into outer space.
33
This means that there would be a sudden and drastic change in air pressure,
34
...which would immediately rupture the inner ears of every living being on Earth.
35
Not only that, without the atmosphere, there will be no oxygen on Earth.
36
And without the life supporting oxygen, those who manage to survive so far...
37
...will eventually begin to suffocate, which could be fatal.
38
How?
39
To know more about it, watch our video...
40
What if the Earth lost oxygen for 5 seconds?
41
The link is in the description below.
42
And lastly, as we know, our beloved Earth itself is held together by gravity.
43
So without this force, the pressure of the Earth's inner core will cause the planet to expand,
44
leading to significant earthquakes and trigger massive volcanic eruptions.
45
And as gravity plays the leading role in the Earth's orbit around the Sun,
46
it will lose its position position and start drifting in space at a speed of 30 kilometers per second
47
Never to return to the habitable zone In other words, it will be the end of the world for us
48
So it's essential not to take gravity for granted and always stay grounded
49
Trivia time Did you know astronauts lose bone mass and muscle strength during stints in space and their sense of balance changes?
50
Also for reasons not entirely clear our red blood cell count falls in the absence of gravity
51
Bringing on a form of space anemia Hope you learned something new in today's episode until next time.
52
It's me Dr. Binox Zooming out!
53
Ah, never mind.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
