I already know this trick. Imagine the board as a checkered board. If the start is black and you move an odd number of times, you will always be on a white square. So you eliminate a black square and so on and so on
It's impossible landing on any other card when following the instructions. Every turn he counts to a different number, sometimes you have five moves, sometimes three and so on, because he knows that this exact number of moves makes it impossible to land on a specific card. And this card is then removed :D
It's literally impossible to be on the ones he eliminates without breaking the rules, it's not that you are predictable, it is that he is a manipulative villain.
Its all about maths,he's literally backing you into a corner by eliminating squares.And the alternating odd and even numbers made you chose what the possibilities are.Nonetheless,amazing trick.
It isnt about possibilities, its about the numbers he says, as we all start at the start, if he says an odd number, is imposible to get to the start again, and this aplies to all the figures, odd numbers blocks some, and even another ones
Gerardo Millan yeah that’s exactly what he said, he removed squares that were impossible to end on based on where you started and how many moves he told you to make
I know I’m ruining the fun, but this is how it works: For every move you make, there’s two groups of sticky notes that you always switch with. One is this (with Xs): X __ X __ X __ X __ X And this is the other: __ O __ O __ O __ O __ If you make 5 moves, you switch between these two groups 5 times, and (assuming you started in the top right) you land on anywhere in group 2. Then, knowing you’re somewhere in group 2, he can remove any note from group 1. This repeats, until you get cornered in 2 squares. He isn’t predicting where you are, he’s knowing where you’re not. I hope that made sense.
Omg ! Thank you so much ! No way this could be done naturally haha I hate those fake pranks, and we could clearly see from the start how the smile face card was forcing it's smile. Great insight dood, and thanks for sharing the support for this theory.
It's not about being predictable, the amount of moves he tells you to do was intentionally measured, to make sure, that your finger CAN'T be on that square.
I think maybe he predicted the squares that were further from the others because most of us will keep going instead of revisit squares so we will pick the ones that are together.
@Haaris Sahi It's called odd-even parity. Square 0, start, and count how many moves at least it takes to go to a square. Every move you move from an odd square to an even square or vice versa, and every odd amount of moves, you do that as well. It's mathematically impossible to get it wrong, which means that if he got it wrong, the viewer is at fault.
this has nothing to do with how predictable someone is, its just math. that is why you have to start from the place he selected. if you could start at any tile, it would be a different game.
But this give an idea of predictability like in this game anyone is predictable even a dice roll is predictable if you know the initial velocity and the mass of the dice and the hown many times its bounces on the table.
It's not based on where your start. The logic is quite simple actually... just simple maths, if you noticed he only stopped counting at odd numbers. Thus your every move would either be in a plus (excluding middle) or a cross (including middle) of the original 9 squares. So as long as he picked a random square from the opposite direction (plus/cross). Try it yourself. If you're having a hard time understanding what I mean by the plus/cross, pretend the 9 squares is a portion of a chess bored. Out of the 9 squares, you have 5 black squares and 4 white squares. The white squares are the "+" (plus) and black squares are the "x" (cross). As long as he picks an odd numbers, it's impossible for you to stay on a black square if you start on a black square. Here's mathematical proof because I'm bored and for further explanation: (2n + 1) + (2n + 1) = 4n + 2 = 2(2n+1) All numbers multiple by 2 is even. 2n + (2n + 1) = 4n + 1 All numbers multiplied by 4 is even, add 1 makes it odd. For idiots: 2n = Even 2n + 1 = Odd What did this prove? Odd + Odd = Even, Even + Odd = Odd. Since he is always making you move by odd numbers (addition), you will always end up with the alternate. Thus you end up in the alternate black/white square or alternate plus/cross. For those wondering, we learn this at GCSE Maths in England... Not squares and shit but "proof".
I went through this a few times and realized the trick to this. Mathematically the amount of spaces he tells you to move, you cannot land on the ones he removes. This ultimately limiting your movements as you cannot move diagonally as well, results in you landing on any given card in which he wants you to land on. The consistent removal of one item each round is significant to the way this works. Very interesting. Loved this.
@@Lula6327 But that's not going over ones you've already been on, that's going over the blank space they once occupied, which he did not say is allowed.
And yet another comment who discovered America, it's the most basic trick ever 🤣 and the comments section is full of "omg I got it!" Yeah no s**t, did you believe a guy from the screen could actually predict the future? Lmao
This is so funny, because I wanted to land on the happy face from the start - it was my goal before the counting even started. This is very amusing! I like the happy face. :)
This is a clever trick, when he started doing the odds and evens and eliminating possible outcomes with math I knew where this was going. So I was trying my best to break the system, but in the end he still managed to get me. Well done sir.
Ok, but seriously I don't understand You are given a number of moves and can only move right, left, up, down. There are no more rules as to where you move. You can repeat tiles. HOW, just HOW is it possible that you can actually try and still "lose" ? Like I honestly don't get it There are so many possible ways to move
@@foczysmalec7374 Okay so we’ve made our first move away from the starting square. There’s only two different possible places we can be, as he explains. Then we get to move 7 times, so… from either of those two tiles we may have started from, there’s no possible way to land on the house card he removes. No matter how many times you try this test, no matter which 7 moves you make. Because of the number of times we’re allowed to move, you can never land on that tile while following the rules. That’s the reason he can confidently say, “now I’m guessing you didn’t land here”. The longer the game goes on, it SHOULD get harder to predict all of the possible places you could have landed. But because he’s also removing tiles as he goes, and since we can’t move across the tiles he’s removing along the way, it forces us to move certain ways and makes our moves even easier to calculate. All he does is continue that process on and on, pulling tiles that there was no possible way to land on given the number of moves he gave us, until he’s eliminated all tiles except for the ones we WERE able to stop on. It seems wild at first until you understand what he did.
@@foczysmalec7374 dude it's just simple math he's not just giving you random numbers he's giving you specific numbers of moves to puth you where he wants you to be
@@foczysmalec7374 because its impossible to win? Its simple 3rd grade class math... If you actually listen to him and his simple rules its impossible to win.
When he said that I decided not to move my finger and my card got removed, if I actually made the move I’d have been on the smiley face and have lost 😱
yeah, i get the logic sense aswell, and get boring half way through, but decide to keep on playing just like you did get the feels like it was the chess board or puzzle like "guide the nun go around the town (with tax) to church" but it was fun
@@salmagosantialanca703 Well i´m not too clever but based on the video and its comments I think that when he says to move your hand an odd number of times he eliminates a square where you could´ve only landed with an even number, and viceversa. I imagine there´s more to it, but that´s what I understandyour hand your hand
I knew it was a math thing because every time he took one off, it was the one that I was JUST on, and it would be impossible land where I just was based on evens and odds. Still, it was a really fun game!
I watch this video religiously every day. It is my morning routine. The first thing I do when I get out of bed. I remember when I was younger I struggled with this test - but after years of training I can now beat this puzzle easily. Each time I complete it is further proof to my utter genius. The people making excuses in these comments are hilarious, you just don't have a big enough IQ to understand how to win.
Okey, the tiles he predicted are mathematicaly impossible be reached in that many steps, I get that. But I swear that every time he stated a prediction of tile I didn't picked that was exactly the tile i wanted to go next. Every time.
Its all a math game, No matter which paper you start on, He already has a set number of steps in mind that makes it impossible to land on the paper he is about to remove next.
You didn't fall for it. The puzzle is solved, For example: At the first one, you can't land on the "house" square if you start either on the top centre/middle left after 7 counts. Therefore, they can safely say that no one landed on the house square, unless someone broke the rule.
@@liagamer4265 Do you remember when I said that going backwards or going back to the last square you've been too is prohibited? No? So do I. Well if you do, then I would appreciate if you will present evidences to back your claim of which according to you; I mentioned that going backwards is prohibited.
It's a cool math trick and after like years, kinda got it (hopefully) on why it's works. People who said for it wrong, pretty much did something wrong.
@@adrixn78 Lol I didn’t mean if you look at it you can figure out the solution, I meant if you look at it you can figure out why it’s impossible. My comment was pretty misleading though
Let's see if I can explain: Long version: 👁👄👁 Notice: 1. Every count he did was up to an UNEVEN number (NOT divisible by 2) in order: 7, 3, 7, 5, 9, 3, 1 ------ that means that every time he started counting YOU MOVED UNEVEN NUMBER OF TIMES. 2. If you move UNEVEN number of times (which you do every turn), IT IS IMPOSSIBLE to end up on a square that is AN EVEN DISTANCE (even number of steps away) from the square you start on. Hence every turn he can remove: a) the square in which you start your turn as its distance from itself is 0 and 0 / 2 = 0 (is even). b) every other square that is an even distance away from the square you start your turn in. The game: You start at the "crossed zero" or "poker face" squares: Possible to remove squares: 1st turn: for "poker face": "house", "Q", "poker face", "crossed zero" for "crossed zero": "house", "Q", "poker face", "crossed zero" ------------- as we see, the choices are symmetrical so there's NO DIFFERENCE in what square we remove. Thus we can remove: "house", "Q", "poker face", "crossed zero", after the first turn (but it happens that he chose the path of removing "house" first). 2nd turn and so on...: Since we MUST HAVE landed on an UNEVEN square from the previous turn, every square that was an EVEN number away from the previous turn is now at an UNEVEN distance (the even and uneven distances have flipped). Thus we can REMOVE every square that was NOT POSSIBLE TO REMOVE the previous turn and continue this pattern until we remove all but one square which is the one predicted. So the outcome of where you end up really depends on the order in which you remove the squares (and they should be removed so that passages wouldn't be blocked that means we can kind of predict how the trick organiser would remove the squares hehe). Sure there are other variables that determine the result: the number of starting squares, grid shape, the place where you start etc., but that would make my brain hurt xd. Shorter version and a graphical illustration (thanks @BrettMKW for the analogy): 👀👄👀 Imagine this was a checker board with black (B) and white (W) squares and you can only move to a different color square per count. start here | |W| B| | |B |W| B |
It’s literally impossible to land on the spaces he took out with the number of moves. It’s not predictability it’s just math. Edit: Suck AButt in the replies linked a video explaining why it’s impossible. Please check that out.
He counts to seven in the beginning, which I landed on the "V" going back and forth between the "Q" looking one. He chooses the house as the one that we werent on. Now I am currently on the V right? Ok well, now, he counts to three. Me myself going to the "V" to the "Q" back to the "V". Therefore, you are completely wrong😗✌🏾
Leighanna Brown-Hobbs ok, you go from “V” to “Q.” That’s one. “Q” to “V.” That’s two. “V” back to “Q” because you have no choice. That’s three and you’re stuck on the “Q.” Therefore, you are completely wrong😗✌🏾
@@anotherbobaenthusiast7343 You are totally wrong,You must be doing Something wrong. It is mathematically imposible to do this. It is not probability,it is all calculated to make it IMPOSSIBLE.
The way he figured this out is because it's mathematically impossible to be on any of the spaces he "predicted" you wouldn't be on. Pause the video after he removes the start panel and try to get to the house in 7 moves starting with either the bored face or the "O" with a line through it. It's impossible.
It’s not impossible. I done it. Start at beginning and go back and fourth until you are at house Edit: For all those idiots who are saying "you don't start at the start tile", I never said that; You start on the first tile from the start AKA the beginning tile, (LIKE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO) and go from there; It's you idiots who are trying to sound smart and act like "beginning" means START TILE; If you idiots want to tell us to do the instructions carefully are the ones that need to read carefully
To anyone saying that they "beat him" I have tested every possible outcome, move, and tile to start of and rewatched this video multiple times, if you seriously didnt end up on the smiley face, work on your "Following Instruction" skills more. (Or show me your pattern in the replies that proved him wrong, maybe I missed a pattern)
i got the house on the first one by going to the one below the start first, moving to the left, moving to the house, and moving up and down until landing on the house. it's just a very specific way to prove him wrong.
@@mrcoolguy12929 Ahh i see what you did wrong, 7 moves means 7 moves, so if you start on the face your first move will either be on the waves or on the smiley face, and it would be impossible to be on the house in 7 moves. (You will end up on the V if you follow your pattern)
@@TheBroke1 ah alright, my bad, i started on the start card instead. lol i just spent 45 minutes trying to find another way and i cant. you were right lmfao
it's crazy how a topic such as mathematics which is commonly stereotyped as boring can be made so incredibly interesting if it's presented in a way that can blow anyone's mind
Right, but if the video wants to frame it as a predictability test of the viewer, it’s a prediction of whether the viewer will blindly follow the arbitrary rules or not.
If you pause it right near 1:03, you can see the smiley face note pop on the screen. Not sure if that is some subconscious trickery or something else. pretty cool find though.
I'm so unpredictable I thought he was saying the amount of moves you're supposed to make, so I made 4 moves on move 4, and won at the house square eventually. That's because I lost count since he was going so fast. Cannot predict stupidity, Mr.Math.
It is indeed math .. he calculated the number of steps and limited your movement directions so that some squares will have( about 0% chance maybe there is a smart one that will get the solution) of you landing on them unless you misscounted your steps by counting +1 for the square you're already on
But Its not about predictivity,but you can't possibly (mostly) even after few attempts get there, i counted IT and its true,i think, you can try IT yourself
Its easy to understand how it works because each paper he takes isnt a possibility after a odd number of moves, and every "round" you can only move an odd number of times, taking options 1 by 1 so who said they didnt get predicted played the game wrongly or are lieying
My maths teacher is pretty chill and cool. She showed this to us but then explained it as simple as possible and went back to letting us use calculators for our GCSE preps
Explanation: there are two types of squares, those that form an x and those that form a cross, (the one in the center belongs to the x), in the beginning square you are in an x square, the trick is that if you move a quantity even, you end up in an x square again, if you move an odd amount, you change squares, it is very simple, for example in the second movement we move 7 squares from a cross square, therefore we will end up in a square of the x

But this give an idea of predictability like in this game anyone is predictable even a dice roll is predictable if you know the initial velocity and the mass of the dice and the hown many times its bounces on the table.
It's not based on where your start.
The logic is quite simple actually... just simple maths, if you noticed he only stopped counting at odd numbers.
Thus your every move would either be in a plus (excluding middle) or a cross (including middle) of the original 9 squares.
So as long as he picked a random square from the opposite direction (plus/cross).
Try it yourself.
If you're having a hard time understanding what I mean by the plus/cross, pretend the 9 squares is a portion of a chess bored.
Out of the 9 squares, you have 5 black squares and 4 white squares. The white squares are the "+" (plus) and black squares are the "x" (cross).
As long as he picks an odd numbers, it's impossible for you to stay on a black square if you start on a black square.
Here's mathematical proof because I'm bored and for further explanation:
(2n + 1) + (2n + 1)
= 4n + 2
= 2(2n+1)
All numbers multiple by 2 is even.
2n + (2n + 1)
= 4n + 1
All numbers multiplied by 4 is even, add 1 makes it odd.
For idiots:
2n = Even
2n + 1 = Odd
What did this prove? Odd + Odd = Even, Even + Odd = Odd. Since he is always making you move by odd numbers (addition), you will always end up with the alternate. Thus you end up in the alternate black/white square or alternate plus/cross.
For those wondering, we learn this at GCSE Maths in England... Not squares and shit but "proof".

This is a clever trick, when he started doing the odds and evens and eliminating possible outcomes with math I knew where this was going. So I was trying my best to break the system, but in the end he still managed to get me. Well done sir.
Ok, but seriously I don't understand
You are given a number of moves and can only move right, left, up, down.
There are no more rules as to where you move.
You can repeat tiles.
HOW, just HOW is it possible that you can actually try and still "lose" ?
Like I honestly don't get it
There are so many possible ways to move
@@foczysmalec7374 Okay so we’ve made our first move away from the starting square. There’s only two different possible places we can be, as he explains. Then we get to move 7 times, so… from either of those two tiles we may have started from, there’s no possible way to land on the house card he removes. No matter how many times you try this test, no matter which 7 moves you make. Because of the number of times we’re allowed to move, you can never land on that tile while following the rules. That’s the reason he can confidently say, “now I’m guessing you didn’t land here”. The longer the game goes on, it SHOULD get harder to predict all of the possible places you could have landed. But because he’s also removing tiles as he goes, and since we can’t move across the tiles he’s removing along the way, it forces us to move certain ways and makes our moves even easier to calculate. All he does is continue that process on and on, pulling tiles that there was no possible way to land on given the number of moves he gave us, until he’s eliminated all tiles except for the ones we WERE able to stop on. It seems wild at first until you understand what he did.
@@foczysmalec7374 dude it's just simple math he's not just giving you random numbers he's giving you specific numbers of moves to puth you where he wants you to be
I just guess and I got it right

@@vitorblauth215 Sure, BUT it's impossible to land on the Q directly before the arrows.

It is possible, I was on arrows when he removed them
After all these years I FELL FOR IT AGAIN
You didn't fall for it. The puzzle is solved,
For example:
At the first one, you can't land on the "house" square if you start either on the top centre/middle left after 7 counts. Therefore, they can safely say that no one landed on the house square, unless someone broke the rule.

@@adrixn78 yes it's a logic thing
It’s math, it is imposible to beat them
@@adrixn78 it’s more logic and common sense than math. You can figure it out if you just look at the board and think for a second.
@@adrixn78 Lol I didn’t mean if you look at it you can figure out the solution, I meant if you look at it you can figure out why it’s impossible. My comment was pretty misleading though
Let's see if I can explain:
Long version: 👁👄👁
Notice:
1. Every count he did was up to an UNEVEN number (NOT divisible by 2) in order: 7, 3, 7, 5, 9, 3, 1 ------ that means that every time he started counting YOU MOVED UNEVEN NUMBER OF TIMES.
2. If you move UNEVEN number of times (which you do every turn), IT IS IMPOSSIBLE to end up on a square that is AN EVEN DISTANCE (even number of steps away) from the square you start on. Hence every turn he can remove:
a) the square in which you start your turn as its distance from itself is 0 and 0 / 2 = 0 (is even).
b) every other square that is an even distance away from the square you start your turn in.
The game:
You start at the "crossed zero" or "poker face" squares:
Possible to remove squares:
1st turn:
for "poker face": "house", "Q", "poker face", "crossed zero"
for "crossed zero": "house", "Q", "poker face", "crossed zero"
------------- as we see, the choices are symmetrical so there's NO DIFFERENCE in what square we remove. Thus we can remove: "house", "Q", "poker face", "crossed zero", after the first turn (but it happens that he chose the path of removing "house" first).
2nd turn and so on...:
Since we MUST HAVE landed on an UNEVEN square from the previous turn, every square that was an EVEN number away from the previous turn is now at an UNEVEN distance (the even and uneven distances have flipped). Thus we can REMOVE every square that was NOT POSSIBLE TO REMOVE the previous turn and continue this pattern until we remove all but one square which is the one predicted.
So the outcome of where you end up really depends on the order in which you remove the squares (and they should be removed so that passages wouldn't be blocked that means we can kind of predict how the trick organiser would remove the squares hehe).
Sure there are other variables that determine the result: the number of starting squares, grid shape, the place where you start etc., but that would make my brain hurt xd.
Shorter version and a graphical illustration (thanks
@BrettMKW for the analogy): 👀👄👀
Imagine this was a checker board with black (B) and white (W) squares and you can only move to a different color square per count.

He counts to seven in the beginning, which I landed on the "V" going back and forth between the "Q" looking one. He chooses the house as the one that we werent on. Now I am currently on the V right?

I Choose Sad Face NGL 😆
Explanation:
there are two types of squares, those that form an x and those that form a cross, (the one in the center belongs to the x), in the beginning square you are in an x square, the trick is that if you move a quantity even, you end up in an x square again, if you move an odd amount, you change squares, it is very simple, for example in the second movement we move 7 squares from a cross square, therefore we will end up in a square of the x
