This video entitled ’50 Things Science Can’t Explain’ lists, well, ’50 Things Science Can’t Explain’.
The problem is, I’m pretty sure that it can actually explain most of them.
Am I right?
Yes.

Define ‘most of them”.

There’s still no definitive answer on why warm water can freeze faster than colder. Many theories, but nothing conclusive.

think it goes something like this. It is a combination of factors.
Warm water has lost some of its volume in steam and this combined at the molecular level is that warm water molecules are already moving and thus require less energy to transfer between states?

I thought it was water that had been boiled, but then heated up from ambient temperature?
Depends what you mean by “explain”.
Many, such as the water freezing one, are actually complex interactions of different conditions which individually science can explain. It’s just that for each case you’d need to do a new complex analysis, and it’s just not worth the trouble.
Others, such as colour of dinosaurs or how the pyramids were built relate to things where there is very little available information.
Several were not scientific questions, such as “why” the Universe exists.
Then there were those related to the brain, where we don’t have a detailed understanding of the mechanisms of how it works, and others where the science is still being developed, such as gravity, dark energy etc.
I think that covers most of them.
