Indian teacher turns upside down to teach Chemistry, wins over Internet in viral video

A teacher from a private online teaching platform, Physics Wallah, has amazed many by using his own body to explain a Chemistry concept during a live session. This creative approach shared in a clip on X (formerly Twitter), now viral, aimed to illustrate chirality- a key concept in chemistry where a molecule cannot align with its mirror image.

Struggling with traditional visuals, the teacher decided to physically demonstrate the concept. In the footage, he lays himself on a desk in front of the screen, then slowly lowers his hands before lifting his legs onto a chair while tilting his head down towards the floor.

"Imagine my head is the COOH group," he says, stretching his legs to show molecular rotation. He adds, "When I turn, my right becomes left and left becomes right," while appearing to blend chemistry with yoga.
