The paradox of the stick (Part I) Evgeni Bantutov

The series, "Paradox of the Stick", is a comic for children and adults. There are seven books. The pictures show physical experiments. There is no math or formulas. It is viewed quickly, of course easily. It's not boring. It's fun. Two boys and a girl explain what's on the figures. They are geniuses in physics. Maybe they're superheroes. The three of them are conducting paradoxical thought experiments. They make unique discoveries. They find infinitely fast motion, they find worm-like motion, they find the cause of the inertia of bodies, they find out why there is dark matter and dark energy, they explain Newton's absolute time, and they explain Einstein's relative time in another way. They are convinced that they will receive the Nobel Prize. Is that so?For ten years I taught private physics lessons to children. The parents of these boys and girls were convinced that the children were stupid, and would never understand the science of physics. Now I know that such children do not exist. It all depends on the way physical knowledge is offered. When knowledge is shown as paradoxes, curiosities and magic, the children of the planet earth become real geniuses.
