Separated at Birth: Albert Einstein and Rudi Völler

Albert Einstein - Rudi Völler


Rudi is slowly getting there I think. And he also had some interesting ideas about the inter-relationship of space and time in recent years.

There are, at this moment, coaches on press conferences everywhere, who are giving you the same drivel as I do.

The latter statement collides a bit with the popular fan chant that “there is only one Rudi Völler”. And then try to wrap your head around this piece of information:

As time, according to the theory of relativity passes slower for moving objects than for resting objects, and assuming that Rudi Völler played all his games in his career (639) for the full 90 minutes and ran 3 metres per second on average, time passed 172,53 pico seconds slower for Rudi than the rest of us and that doesn’t include all the youth games, friendlies and training sessions. Which doesn’t help to explain why his hair greyed so early from our perspective.
