CGP Grey does a similar video — spanning the sizes of our entire observable universe — called "Metric Paper" [0]

Even if you've never taken a mild psychedelic, this video hits in a similar manner (as sober metaphor).

I still drive with Neal.fun's Internet Roadtrip (same OP link author), every time I'm out in my workshop.

Nice display, but it starts off with misleading measurements of DNA. The spacing between DNA base pairs is 0.34 nm, so the 10 base pairs pictured are in fact 3.4 nm. But the DNA in a single human cell is about 2 meters, and chromosome lengths vary from 2 to 10 cm. I am skeptical of the hemoglobin vs ribosome sizes as well; hemoglobin has a molecular weight of about 60,000, while ribosomes weigh more than 5 million.

[edited] - It's incredible to think that it starts from DNA, is 3.5nm tall and the solid silicon fins in our phone's transistor is twice that.

I am sure everyone has their own mind blown moment, and for me it was there being an animal about the size of a red blood cell.

“Compressible rodent” was not a phrase I thought I’d ever hear but I’m glad I did. Worth the price of a couple of coffees.

Beautiful site. Also very pleased to see the mitochondrion being referred to as the powerhouse of the cell, as is law.

I like the stuff un the sute but the number if partners and affiliates in the consent window is very off putting.

He always makes great content, I love it.

I wish Neal would do behind the scenes, how he built this art. I wonder whether LLM assistants like Claude Code make such an interactive show more feasible.

He previously did a game "Infinite Craft" which leveraged Llama models. However, I was only able to find an outdated blog from 2019.
