I've been subscribed to Veritasium for a long time but hardly watch the videos, ^this reminded me how much I'm missing out.
My personal favorite are the "Universe From Nothing" talks by Lawrence Krauss. The hypothesis is more or less outlined circa 33:00 in this video (pardon the account).

I'd just like to interject here and point out that I'm not going to say anything to spoil the mood, Chief. I'll just float here and watch. Don't mind me, just sitting here, floating and watching, that's me.
