Armed with a degree in aeronautics and a qualification
in...erm...welding, Jem set out to build a toffee-powered rocket
sled. No, we're not making that up.
For the past decade, Jem has been creating special effects for
movies like Lost in Space and Van Helsing. In between working on
films, he invented the world's first air-powered motorbike and won
a New Scientist prize for boots that walk on water!
Now, he works on BBC's Bang Goes the
Theory, making pretty much anything they ask him to. One Word Science filmed him backstage
at Bang Goes the Theory LIVE to find out what he loves about
science.
In the words of Jem: "Science is a big field and I really
believe that there's something for everyone in there". Get
exploring and find out which bit you like best!
Thanks to One Word Science.
