What if the question I type is based on a myth?

Then the myth is your hook. Type it as a question, such as 'Does glass flow over time?', and the video can open on the belief and spend the rest on what is true. Before anything is voiced, the whole finished script is read for statements that are confidently wrong, and only those lines get rewritten while every picture stays.

Will the pictures include labelled diagrams?

No. Pictures are drawn without lettering, because image models tend to garble words; a diagram becomes a picture of the thing itself, and the names and numbers live in the narration and captions.

Can one video cover a whole field, like quantum physics?

It can, but it rarely holds anyone. One effect per video, explained through something the viewer can picture, beats a tour of a subject, and a run of single questions gives a channel many more posts.

Science facts that make people rewatch

The best science shorts take one fact that sounds impossible and explain it in under a minute. Type a question and get a narrated, captioned video built around it.

A science short opens on a sentence that sounds wrong and then earns it. 'Every banana is slightly radioactive' is true, and the rest of the video is the reason: a natural form of potassium, and a body that keeps its potassium steady so none of it builds up. That shape (the surprising claim, the mechanism, the everyday consequence) works across physics, chemistry, biology and the human body. The best topics are things the viewer has already seen and never questioned: cracking knuckles, onions and tears, ice floating in a glass, how their own voice sounds on a recording. It suits curious explainers who enjoy the 'wait, how?' more than the trivia, and it rewards accuracy, because a science comments section will check your working for you.

What makes one of these work

Lead with the claim that sounds wrong.
Then 'wait, how?', and answer it simply.
Leave them with one thing to tell a friend.

Openings that work

Example first lines. Use one as it is or write your own in the same shape.

There is a hole in your vision right now, and your brain is painting over it.
Helium doesn't make your voice higher. Your vocal folds vibrate at the same pitch; something else changes.
When water freezes it grows by about 9%. That single number is why the ice floats in your drink.

Start from an idea

Tap one. The script, voice, pictures and captions are made for you.

Why every banana is slightly radioactive
Potassium-40 is real, the dose is tiny, and the body clears extra potassium. A scary-sounding fact with a calm answer.
The blind spot in each of your eyes
Where the optic nerve leaves the eye there are no light-detecting cells, and the brain fills the gap. Viewers can test it.
What helium really does to your voice
Pitch stays put; the vocal tract's resonances shift because sound travels faster in helium. Correcting a party trick hooks well.
Why your voice sounds wrong on a recording
You hear yourself partly through your skull, which boosts low tones. A recording gives you only what everyone else hears.
Is old window glass thicker at the bottom because it flows?
No: solid glass stops flowing, and old panes were made unevenly to begin with. Busting a myth people repeat makes a tidy short.
What actually makes the sound when you crack your knuckles
Gas comes out of the joint fluid as a bubble; a 2015 MRI study suggested the pop comes as it forms, not as it bursts.
Why cutting an onion makes you cry
Cutting breaks cells open, an enzyme makes a volatile compound, and its vapour reaches your eyes. Three steps, three pictures.
How lightning turns sand into glass
Fulgurites form when a strike melts the ground into glassy tubes; the channel passes 30,000 kelvin. Real objects you can show.
Why ice floats on water
Water expands by about 9% as it freezes, so ice is less dense than the liquid around it. One number explains a thing everyone has seen.
