Professor Brian Cox

I know this is a bit random but.

Has this man discovered the secret to life itself whilst being a physicist, or is it just me.
Ive watched a few Horizons, or other documentaries with this guy but im amazed.
For those who don't know or care, this is the guy.

Anyway, hes 41yr old. He looks younger than me, and im 26.

I have seen him in a few BBC programs and I think he is very good at presenting programs with with a scientific theme. He certainly does seem very young for someone of his age, but no doubt he is incredibly good at what he does.

He's 41!?!?! I never thought that!He must be the next highlander...

You mean because he looks so young?

He obviously moisturised from an early age.

Wow I thought tom cruise looked young for his age, but he is something else!

I just saw Brian Cox and automatically assumed you we're talking about this guy.

Didn't realise he was 41, or a professor.Always figured we was late 20's. Guess it's the lack of sun at CERN keeping him looking spritely.

I dunno I dont think he's that great tbh and he comes across as a bit of a tit sometimes. I mean yeah hes clever but he aint a ground breaking particle physicist, no where near the top of his field. Was funny when he called a US military officer an idiot as he screwed up some GPS satellite. I think he use to play keyboard for some band in the 80s as well lol. If you want a decent physicist presenter then Professor Al-Khalil is much higher calibre. Watch the 3-part BBC Atom series, you'll learn the history of Quantum Mechanics.

HAH! I knew I recognised him from somewhere. He's the guy who did that "Tour of the LHC" video.

So did I.

He's a good presenter, but he deserves some sort of punishment for inflicting us with 'Things Can Only Get Better'.

Bill101 · 3 Apr 2009 at 09:29

He is on the local news all the time as the Manchester Media Mafia love anyone from ''their'' city.

Crikey.

He's obviously also invented a time machine to end up looking that young :|

Will watch when I get back from revising !

It clearly helps that you were in a dodgy synth-pop band: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dl-ai9HuR60

I watched him in the programme he did on nuclear fusion power. Very interesting and accessible.

He does seem about 25 though - definitely doesn't look 41!
