To be honest, I'm not into physics or math at all and only had a 'passing familiarity' with the topic of string theory before and neither of these two videos told me anything about string theory that I didn't already know.
I suppose if one had never heard of the theory, then these videos ought to help give a basic outline of what it is about (which is what I had to begin with).
Btw, I wouldn't say these videos "explain" string theory. The just describe what it kinda looks like.

aye - same for me.
I watched an hour long show on Science Channel awhile back on string theory..and kinda-sorta-mabye understood at least the elementarily concepts of it.
I watched 3 of these videos so far, and I agree - you may only see the value of these videos if you ALREADY have a grasp of the subject.
But in the end - lots of brilliant folks are spending their lives trying to discover this theory - so no 2 minute video is going to it.
