I love EEVBlog but I wish he'd stop making videos on topics outside his area of expertise for views

He's excellent at electronic engineering but he's not a physicist

He just pointed out that their demonstration video can be easily explained without any superconduction. I don't see why you need to be a professional physicist for that.

Do you also need to be a physicist to point out that their "levitating" sample is in fact still touching the magnet?

Or that the "0 resistance" is actually 1000x more resistive than copper.
