This video was inspired by my Veritasium video - your mass is NOT from the Higgs Boson: /youtube/video/Ztc6QPNUqls

The point in that video is that the Higgs mechanism provides mass to fundamental particles but that mass is much less than the mass of the conglomerate particles they make up. This video was an effort to disentangle the different aspects and types of mass. Thanks to Sean Carroll for taking the time to discuss this with me.
