A teenager won $250,000 for His video explanation of eintein special theory of relativity.

What were you doing when you were 18 years old? If we had to guess, we'd say you probably weren't winning hundreds of thousands of dollars for a simple explanation one of Albert Einstein's theories. Unless you're Ryan Chester. In that case, hi Ryan!

In 2015, Ryan Chester made a 7-minute video explaining Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity. You know, as teenagers are wont to do. Chester's video won the Breakthrough Junior Challenge, earning a $400,000 prize. Of this money, Chester took home a $250,000 scholarship; his suburban Cleveland school got $100,000 for a new science lab; and Chester's favorite teacher, Richard Nestoff, a physics teacher at North Royalton High, went away with $50,000. Not too shabby for a YouTube clip.

If you need to be convinced that Chester's video is worth all this cash, just check it out below. Spoiler: Yes, it really is that good. In the award-winning video, Chester uses real-life demonstrations to describe the otherwise complex science term soup that is Einstein's ground-breaking 1905 theory. He uses a bowl of popcorn, a moving van, cute on-screen graphics, and more to make this heady topic relatable, clear, and — dare we say it? — simple.
