This is pseudoscience, the exact thing people around here acuse the right of engaging in. Nice job spreading it.

You're welcome to your opinions. I mean yeah it's definitely an idea and from a scientific mindset we can use it to make predictions and see if those predictions are accurate to see if the idea is accurately modeling reality or not. The amount of novel events seems doable to define and attempt a measurement so at least as a hypothesis I wouldn't say it's utterly unscientific.

It doesn't even pass the sniff test. And a YouTube video is not evidence. Before this is even entertained, there needs to be multiple replicatable experiments done independently. This is a quack on the internet.

I'm guessing you don't know the speaker. Saying something is BS just because it's on YouTube is interesting. What if it was a lecture by Terrence Tao on YouTube? Also just for argument sake, there's lots of ideas taken pretty seriously in physics that aren't directly testable, honestly border more on philosophy. Even simple things like what exactly is time, does all of spacetime exist at once as Einstein thought and so on.
