Gary Mosher (a.k.a. DraftScience, a.k.a. Inmendham)
Return to pseudo-scientists list
Simply looking at him is enough to have a pretty good idea of what the character is! The dude looks like he puts his toe nails in cataloged jars that he keeps on shelves.
Gary Mosher, better known by his research aliases “DraftScience” and “Inmendham”, is an independent investigator who has courageously declared war on what he calls “the lies of physics”. Equipped with a webcam, a whiteboard, and limitless conviction, he has spent over a decade attempting to rederive all of modern physics from first principles, mostly by ignoring them.
His body of work, now surpassing several hundred hours, constitutes the largest known experiment in testing whether confidence alone can generate new laws of nature.
Gary Mosher is known on Quora, Reddit, and probably other places, as a 66-year-old guy (as of 2026) who lives in Union (New Jersey) and failed science in high school. This academic trauma is likely the reason he developed his hatred toward real science. His dark activities (see below) make him ashamed of his name, so he is forced to hide in a basement where all his dim videos are shot.
Since its inception, physics has operated under the radical assumption that mathematics and experiment should agree. DraftScience offers an alternative: That mathematics and experiment are both wrong, therefore wrong math equations and fake experimental results should be right (or so does he believe...)!
In his treatises (broadcast live and often angrily), Mosher asserts that relativity is false, magnetism is misunderstood, and photons are mechanical objects that push, pull, and sometimes complain. He also insists that maglev trains operate by “paramagnetism”, an explanation that, while novel, has yet to appear in Siemens’ technical manuals.
While going on a retreat in the abyss of nonsence, our friend Gary had an epithany: Momentum equals energy! In mathematical terms:
Who cares that momentum is a vector while energy is a scalar? For Gary, the equality holds. Also, don't ask him why the S.I. unit of momentum is the kg.m/s, while that of energy is the joule (kg.m²/s²).
Gary is a staunch defender of Newton's 2nd law. That would be perfectly honorable if he hadn't given the law a little twist: Force equals mass times velocity! Yes, that's Mosher's law:
I couldn't do without disproving him:
Gary Mosher rarely leaves his subterranean lair, emerging only when he's in trouble with the law:
In this dramatic chapter, Gary recorded himself crying and throwing a full child-like temper tantrum because he has to pay a $750 electric bill. As he rages at the meter and the workers just trying to do their jobs, things escalate so badly that the police have to intervene to ensure the technicians’ safety.
Witness the meltdown for yourself:
Gary considers himself not only a scientist but also an artist, a visionary who “paints truth with photons of enlightenment”. His most ambitious piece, The Birth of Rational Discourse, is a self portrait that he describes as “a raw confrontation between reason and censorship”.
The painting caused a minor scandal online, partly because Gary forgot to wear any symbolic clothing. When critics suggested that the work might be “a bit too revealing,” Gary defended it by saying the exposure was “purely metaphorical,” though most viewers weren’t convinced.
He later explained that the canvas represents “the naked pursuit of truth,” which, according to him, required a full demonstration of commitment. The art community remains divided: Some call it bold, others call it the reason why they now keep SafeSearch permanently on.
Mosher’s approach to online discussion has been described by experts as “a bold reinterpretation of the scientific method, minus the evidence, plus the delete button”. When confronted with counterarguments, he doesn’t so much engage as curate, carefully sculpting his comment sections until they resemble a consensus, usually consisting of himself.
This process, which he calls “maintaining intellectual hygiene”, involves the systematic removal of all remarks containing logic, references, or complete sentences. As a result, his YouTube page has become a fascinating case study in spontaneous peer review extinction.
Scholars have noted that Mosher’s deletion patterns follow a recognizable rhythm: The moment a viewer begins to demonstrate understanding of the subject, their comment mysteriously vanishes, as if banished by the very laws of censorship he claims to oppose. This can be summarized as cowardice at its finest. To bear witness to this dark practice that places Gary Mosher at the lowest level of mankind, one of my followers had the reflex to take a screenshot of his comment in which he implicitly admits his cowardice, before he could erase it as well:
In a sense, his channel represents a new genre of interactive art: Post-debate minimalism.
Unlike conventional physicists, Mosher avoids the use of equations, controlled experiments, or brevity. Instead, he favors the Long Monologue Method (LMM), an experimental communication protocol in which clarity decays exponentially with runtime. This is described by the equation:
In several groundbreaking sessions, he has disproven quantum mechanics using a combination of hand gestures, moral outrage, and what appears to be an old camcorder.
Mosher’s most vigorous “peer reviews” concern two of my own experimental demonstrations:
The setup tests the proportionality between force and acceleration with the sort of precision that would make Newton weep tears of joy (and probably demand a better camera angle). DraftScience, however, publicly declared the experiment “wrong”, without specifying which law of nature he prefers instead. His critique notably omits the experimental data, a striking methodological innovation sometimes called selective epistemic transparency.
In this demonstration, rotational inertia behaves exactly as textbooks promise: When the radius decreases, angular speed increases, so does the linear speed (as opposed to DraftScience's claim of it being constant), and energy accounting checks out. DraftScience objects, alleging some hidden violation, but cowardly avoids mentioning that the measurements agree with the canonical prediction to within excellent accuracy, a level of precision usually reserved for orbital mechanics and inconvenient truths.
My paper on the universality of time dilation was published couple months ago, and it was only a matter of time before Einstein’s Cat clawed its way into the world of YouTube physics. It didn't take long before Gary bravely stepped forward to (unsuccessfully) try to “debunk” the idea, armed with enthusiasm, confidence, and a hilarious concentrate of pure ignorance.
Simply watch by yourself:
Peer review of DraftScience’s claims remains pending, primarily due to the absence of peers. However, his videos have attracted a dedicated audience of commenters, many of whom begin their replies with “I’m not sure what you mean, but...” (the universal sign of intellectual impact).
When tested against empirical evidence, most of Mosher’s hypotheses exhibit negative predictive power, correctly anticipating only outcomes that do not occur.
If confidence could bend spacetime, Mosher would have already achieved gravitational collapse. His influence continues to inspire aspiring contrarians, who seek to overthrow physics by recording increasingly long YouTube monologues from increasingly dimly lit rooms.
Future research directions include:
Gary Mosher’s DraftScience represents a monumental contribution to the study of alternative physics, a field defined primarily by its lack of equations, experiments, or patience. While his theories remain unsupported, they have succeeded brilliantly in demonstrating the conservation of ignorance.
