Most people point to the second law of thermodynamics as the only law of physics that doesn't work the same way forwards and backwards in time. But in this video I explore how a single particle can break time reversal symmetry. I worked on the script and animations for this video for months with my friend Jorge Cham, the creator of PhD comics and his co-author physicist Daniel Whiteson. I'm glad to get to share it with you in time for Christmas in case you want to cancel vacation plans and perform experiments instead ;)
