    It was disappointing to see Veritasium not applying much critical analysis to IQ testing in his video.

    He really should of downplayed it’s significance more.

      I don’t even want to watch that video because I know I’m going to get annoyed by it. Veritasium’s video on self-driving cars was so awful, it was enough for me to just sort them into the Sketchy Pop-Sci YouTube Channels bucket for good. I’ve heard that their videos on electricity and that one physics bet were also pretty shaky.
