Neil deGrasse Tyson in Slow Motion Is a Pretty Good Idea of What He’d Be Like Stoned

As it turns out, you don’t even need to do anything illegal to see what Neil deGrasse Tyson would be like high thanks to a clever YouTuber. When you slow him down, he pretty much sounds like a stoner. Unfortunately, the reverse doesn’t work, and talking super fast will not make you sound as brilliant as Tyson—especially if you are high.

Of course, even in slow motion, he’s still amazing, and he pretty much sounds as prolific as people who are high mistakenly think they do.
