My new toy! | A week as a PhD student #5

I get a new filming toy! Dan and I nearly die! I fall off a wall! Drumpf gets elected! My code won't stop misbehaving! There's also a funny clock at one point. And Dan doing his best ASMR YouTuber impression.

It was a busy week.

Do not despair about the code! Since filming this video things have turned around and there's a new direction we're taking. Also I sound very defeatist in this episode, by the next video you'll see that I'm a lot more positive. PhDs are full of ups and downs and I feel like this video coincided with one of my big downs. But as you will also see, even when life is on a downer there are still plenty of things to laugh at and smile about :)

(Sorry for the reupload - I had to take some footage out, and the music I originally put over the drone footage got copyright struck despite me having permission to use it. Oh well )

I am Simon, a fourth year PhD candidate at the University of Exeter. I upload videos on bits of science which are relevant to what I do, and sometimes just because they're really cool.
