Stephen Hawking is a surprisingly funny and entertaining guy. Not surprising because he’s in a wheelchair, but surprising because he’s a theoretical physicist… I can’t imagine too many of them being a hit at dinner parties.
Hawking even knows his pop culture, as proven by this clip showing him answering a question about Zayn Malik leaving One Direction and what it means for physics.
His answer? That if his theories are proven correct, we may one day discover countless parallel universes, all of which contain a Zayn Malik.
In many of these universes, Malik will still be in One Direction. And in one you’ll be married to the guy. Isn’t science amazing?!
