Love your videos Cary!
Could you theoretically create a longer hallway at a much more mild angle making even the people going through it feel as if they are always going up. Like two stair sets on opposite sides of a "building." It would be less immediately trippy, but a couple laps through mixed with not really getting anywhere would have a fun compounding effect.
You would have to make it feel like you are going up when in reality you are going down. That way you go up x height then go back down that same height so that the transition between landings always feels like you are going up when you just returned to the same landing you were just on. If you can solve that problem then you have solved the "infinite" staircase.
So without changing halfway through so that you can see the other landing (as most staircases let you so that you "know" you are going up) you need to go up one side, and down the other while seemingly going up in some fashion. The landing would have to look like you were going up to it even though in reality you were going down to the other one.
What you guys are talking about is literally impossible, you are essentially describing a paradox.
There is absolutely no way you can create stairs that makes you feel like you are going up while going down.
If you angle the stairs you end up with the same problem as the model, they eventually end up sideways. Gravity is still a thing, and no matter how you choose to design the stairs or how long or large you make them, gravity will immediately reveal their flaws.
You will never have the sensation of "going up" since that requires you to use your leg to push your body weight up against gravity, which wouldn't work when you are "falling" with gravity at an angle.
So unless you have a way to alter gravity itself, and give each set of stairs their own gravitional pull that dynamically "circle" into each other, you will never be able to make these stairs.
its twins lol

@@Dkgow low angles feel flat. place two hallways parallel to each other at opposing slight angles. this will put one end above the other on either end, but which hallway is above will alternate. connect with stairwells and you are good.
Chainsaw man reference lmao😂😂
it's possible to build an infinite hallway, but it'd take up a TON of room:
my original idea was thousands of rooms, each room points only 1/8th of an inch or less to the left each time thus hiding the fact that it's actually just a circle.
But then I realized we can just make a hallway that wraps around earth and call it a day.
Of course it's gonna take up a ton of room, it's infinite!
@@brrrrrr he meant that as a metaphor
1 rotation around the Earth is already called a day, so we don't need to

That dragon-dog thing is bloody eerie, like it's turning its head to look at you when you try to walk away.
2:39 That was so trippy.
Well no shit.
My son had one of those in his activity book when he was like 10 or 12. It's not a complicated picture, you just have to fold it correctly. It is definitely mind-blowing especially when you leave it on the table and walk by it throughout the day.
Alright I gotta climb those stairs for real man, make it happen 😂

2:11 I love that you included material from the educational/entertainment Paka Paka TV signal. An advertising-free TV signal for kids.
In 1991 a mate of mine made a balsa wood model of the MC Escher staircase using false perspective, it was to do stop frame animation over for the titles to a French game show. He’d just finished it when the phone rang “Destroy it!!!” It turns out the copyright was £1,000 per second so that’d be £30k every time the titles rolled! He kept it, it was on his music room wall :D
Normal people when they see this illusion... "hey that's pretty cool!"

I have been trying to understand this for years and you explained it in minutes, you are a genius
Yes it's possible, I built a physical model myself 20 yrs ago, but you must add in a down slope area as you have there. The Escher version keeps going up, but physically impossible to build.
This reminded me of the Lord of the Rings movies that used those illusions. I wonder how bad they would look if it was filmed in 3D since both cameras could not be on the perfect spot.

Was just about to mention it too.

*Coming to a staircase, Stanley walked upstairs to his boss's office*
In terms of perception, because it is a spiral but at an angle the Leaning Tower of Pisa gives a strange experience of going both down and up at the same time, particularly when you're going down. They even give a warning that it can induce motion sickness. That's the closest in real life I think I'll ever come to an Esher staircase.

Great video, dewd! I thoroughly enjoyed it

Wow. Nice work man...! Little bit late to it, but well presented, I really enjoyed seeing it revealed as I know many perception tricks, but i had never seen those staircase, and seeing it modeled in 3D really was a great way to understand it fully...
dude can talk and eat pizza both at the same time holy hell
I love how you can hear that he's smiling while speaking
He's too powerful, I can hear him without him talking, he's using telepathy
I love your video style of voicing over your own face emoting and not actually talking. It give a more animated and unique feel
I figured you would need to tilt the stairs somehow to give the illusion, but I never thought about sloping the landings. Cool to see it all modeled out
If you had a long enough staircase, you could probably slope the landing just enough that it gives you that downward drop when you walk from the "top" stair on one side to the "bottom" stair on the other, that way when you look over the stairs it always looks like you are going the direction you want, but that starting landing is actually raised. The only "problem" would be that going from one stair case to the other wouldn't seem natural.
I got you bro, firing up my 3D printer!
Can you post a video about it?
Actually I did it and its like 0.5 cm long
ok
I have thought of a way to do this IRL: Sloped Steps. Each step has a downwards slope so it perfectly cancels out the height difference from the step up
It would be pretty obvious tho from every angle except directly above
@@cara-setun That and seeing the landing on the other side at your angle needs to look like you are going up in order for this to work.
Excellent video! Loved seeing someone explain how it actually worked!
Nice acting by all people their reactions are wonderful

1:51 The answer is he is in a slanted room (a room where the floor is a slope).
Your video's are always so epic, your amazing Jabrils. Also you're an inspiration to all programmers.
ok
You never fail to impress me with your uploads. You're one of the most underrated content creators out there.
I appreciate that!
ok
That was very impressive! Definitely subscribing to your channel!!
you could built a little 3D model of these stairs on a rubiks cube. You gotta take the cube hold it with one side facing you, rotate the each strip by a small angle keeping the same face towards you, then turn the cube to the right and rotate each strip by roughly the same angle in the same direction ( if you did the first side facing you upwards then do the second side upwards to ). Now if you view it from the sides and follow the "steps" you'll notice they always seem to ascend or descend
It's look like A chainsaw man scene where they got stuck in hotel level 8. ROFL.
Me: Wants to read funny comments
The 50 RUclipsrs that commented: You shall not pass!
i was thinking exactly that
The modelling skill here is really something, just a quiet understated part of the video but that's quite a skill
Would love to see this in a film
4:02 Thing is though (not to shit on your parade, but) you can see how it works right away, like the slant is really obvious and as a result it doesn't give you that odd impossible law of physics being broken feeling. You can just clearly see that the floor is slanted.
That’s what I was thinking. They clearly decline on the far left slope.
this is so cool, i would totally visit some art sculpture that was a real-life recreation of this concept
Sflflllflrlllrltllklt
This is sick man. Nice work !!
You could probably make the slant at the ends much less extreme by having the stairs not be right angles, but each step overhangs the one below it, casting a false shadow that makes it look deep, but the each step height is much smaller than it appearS.

hey jabrils your content is amazing upload frequently
ok
You can mitigate the gradient if you build two slopes on the landings and increase the distance between stairs and using clever shading you can make it look almost flat. The movie "The Avengers" from 1998 built an infinite staircase to use in one of the scenes basically using shading and selected viewing angles.
dude is so chilled, watched the whole video without even noticing
To be honest, I kind of understood this immediately but im def liking the vid because u spent time making a model and i love how chill you are
00:01 - 00:20This brings me deja vu. I just finished watching Chainsaw Man not too long ago.
Even though its easy to see right away how it would work, you kinda captivated me and i had to keep watching lol nice video
Didn't expect something with such high quality behind that profile picture, good job^^
found your channel today. youre fucking awesome dude im about to 3d print this staircase and i hope you have a really good day man!
I always love your content!
Also I’ve been to the infinite staircase, I use to walk up it to get to my differential equations class.
The strangest part about it was that my math class was on the 4th floor of what looks from the front to be a 2 story art building.
If you make the steps diagonal you can get 0 height difference at the cost of not really having the illusion work at any angle. It'll still look strange, but way more natural. So it seems that you either preserve the effect to lose in slope differences or lose the effect to reduce slopes.
I am able to kind off get that we can build on this model by introducing a greater height difference on both the higher platform and lower platform,
With which we'll be able to show an actual staircase at the lower 'stairs'
So the actual up and down motion would be managed by the two slopes at both the ends of the stairs (the platform)
One platform would take us higher, from where we 'go down the stairs', and at the end of those, would be a platform which goes lower, from where we go up the stairs
(With only one platform sloped, we get a straight line of stairs like in this video, I think)
"I didn't choose the staircase. The staircase chose me." It chose well! 😄
The illusion at 1:39 is actually a room who has one of its corners farther than the other from the camera...Here the left one is father..but it should look short right? They increased the height of it to give it an equal size look...And when the person goes to the left corner,he is actually going far away from the camera..oh,and forgot to mention,the right corner is really short and really near to the camera..
edit: oh you already discussed it already 😂 but i am honestly didn't see the explanation later
Duhhh
This thing would make a great desk decoration, 3D printing it would be epic
For it to work the flat parts have to be like ramps, it really isn't complicated
Just imagine how many gb Jabrils has of audioless headshaking. Would look real weird if he lost a camera and someone *not subscribed* found it.
The real plot-twist is that he just needs 70 stars to actually get up the stairs.
i love the way you edit your videos
We have the backrooms, but now we have the staircase.
The only way to make an "infinite" staircase is with the 4th dimension. Perhaps you could program one into a game😃 To a 4th dimensional being it would basically be like climbing up and climbing down again exept every time it climbs down it goes in and out of the W axis
It's actually possible to do it without a fourth dimension in what's called nilgeometry, one of the eight Thurston geometries.
Putting an infinite staircase in a video game is borderline trivial, and this kind of thing has actually been done a few times. I can't remember any example games off the top of my head, they tend to be mods or custom maps or play-once-and-forget-it indie games (which is not a criticism btw, I love that kind of game). The one example I *can* remember is a game that didn't even use it in the end - the developer commentary in Portal 2 explains that during development they allowed the mappers to connect rooms in such ways to create impossible geometries, but only because they didn't want them to waste time laying out the separate rooms and corridors in a logical way when all of the rooms are still being actively developed and changed. Near the end of development, they finally sat down and laid out all of the (now finalized) rooms, removing all of the impossible geometries.
Except one instance in the whole game, they said. They didn't say where it was! But I think it was actually kept for technical reasons rather than actually making impossible geometry.
Also, I have to mention the infinite staircase in Super Mario 64!
I'M HONESTLY MIND BLOWN ..... THIS IS AN AMAZING VIDEO..... LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE AMAZING CONTENT JABRILS...ALSO STAY SAFE AND FROSTY DURING THIS UNFORTUNATE TIMES....ALL THE BEST FOR YOUR ENDEAVOURS JABRILS ❤️
All you have to do it rotate the entire set so that the top and bottom platform are roughly horizontal with each other and the earth and have very little elevation and for the other factor you would have to put the stairs at uncomfortable angles and have people stand at an angle against gravity to give the illusion of them standing straight up
thanks for the lighting on the model, the geometry is clear

You can have an infinitely increasing / decreasing set of joined stairs as long as the height gained or lost is zero.
2:40 It's a dog obviously
Escher is my all time favorite artist !
Christopher Nolan always tries to make things real rather than using VFX😎
Captain disillusion made a video about that many years ago.
