The other day I heard some deep news: Don "Mr. Wizard" Herbert passed away. I grew up on Mr. Wizard's World. That show taught me that if I blew up a balloon and put a piece of tape on it, I could stick pins in the piece of tape without popping the balloon (the tape held the rubber balloon together so it wouldn't rip, or something like that). Dude's show was just too much for a wild dork like me. Although I never really performed a lot of the experiments he did, I watched his show and loved it!
I can't find clips of his work, though! Peep his official website, though, and you can order DVDs of his shows.
Damn, Mr. fucking Wizard. Fuck Bill Nye, and that punk Beakman! RIP, dun.
RIP Mr. Wizard
