Actually, this is his alter ego – Dr Quantum!

In this 5 minute animated clip, he breaks down one of the most famous and eerie experiments in the field of quantum physics that touches on the dual nature of matter and the effect of observation on reality,  the double slit experiment.

I believe this video comes from an unused clip that was originally to appear in that weird cult favorite, “What the Bleep Do We Know?”.

Enjoy!
