Yes, that one is my favorite together with the one on counting past infinity. The mathematics of infinity is extremely interesting and we actually have a much more rigorous and exact understanding of infinity than most people think.
Vsauce is seriously one of the most creative and interesting RUclipsrs on the platform. Unreal content creation. Love your reactions too bro keep it up!
My first existential crisis in memory was when I was watching the movie "Shark boy and Lava Girl" as a child and near the end of the movie there is a quite "Snow? It can't be snowing in august?" Which confused me greatly, because to me living in the southern hemishphere august is in winter, why would it be weird to have snow in winter. And that is how I learned that seasons are the opposite in the northern and southern hemispheres and exist solely due to the tilt of the earth.
31:50 You make a really good point here and what you're saying here is also covered by Michael in an older Vsauce video called "Is Anything Real". In which he explains how our physical ability to sense the world around us is our ONLY 'portal' into reality. Our perception of the entire universe will always be subjective because we are limited to our biology. In this case, the "context" of chairs existing is fundamentally just our neurons wired in a way to save the brain power of identifying what this object is every time we see one. In this case, a "context" isn't even a thing that objectively exists, but something we made up and projected onto reality.
I need more Jon and Vsauce videos! I need that "Messages for the Future" reaction! -Edit, I could on and on. "Cruel Bombs","The Banach-Tarski Paradox", "What is Déjà vu?" are all classics in my humble opinion.
Oh man I just saw your video reacting to VSauce for the first time two weeks ago while I was doing laundry, so glad youre doing more! Rewatching Vsauce + having your commentary is honestly really entertaining, looking forward to watching this!
im only 13 mins into the video, but the way i see it is that all objects are compositional. so if we have a two piece bikini, the one compositional object we would refer to as a bikini is composed of two individual objects, the bikini top and the bikini bottom. the same logic applies to the hypothetical trog. we don't normally consider a trog an object, but say we found a purpose for putting a tree and a dog next to eachother, like it functioned as an energy source or something like that, we most likely would start to consider a trog an object. almost all objects are made of several different objects in this way, we just classify things as singular objects based on if it serves a purpose to consider it as such or not.
A chair is concept invented by our minds to categorize things that serve a similar purpose. Anything can be a chair, as long as it's used as a chair, which requires "sit-ability". The same could be said about math - it only exists in our minds. That's debatable, but I think the universe appears to obey fundamental laws (patterns we find through observation), at least locally. Math is simply a tool we created to describe and find these patterns!
My entire existence is based on constant thinking about stuff like this. Plus physics. Wish you had a Discord, maybe you would be able to do debates about these things. EDIT: Also, oh my god, your comment about "a chair is not a chair to a dog" is the most brilliant description of this problem I have ever heard. I fucking love it. And I am usually the person who tries to inspire other people with this stuff.
Greetings Jon, i really appreciate how you bring diversity to your reactions and how we can experience several genres of media as a community. No matter if it is music, philosophy or anything else. Keep it up.
My first existensial crisis was being told the surburbian earth doesnt just go forever and that the world isnt an endless flat plane. Around 5 years old
I love this video, and a lot of Vsauce's dissection of the origins of the words and ideas we all kinda just take as a matter of fact. Everyone could do much with this much wonder for the world.
I'm only 11 minutes in, but I really hope he covers one of my early existential crises: why are the single item of clothing referred to as a "pair of pants"
Simulation is just new word for God in our age. The whole narrative of going “beyond the creator” is endless. People are not even interested in learing about their great-grand parents.
There are some that say WE are Vsauce. Are we tho? and who are “WE” and what even is a Vsauce. Is Michael talking to his RUclips Chanel like it was a living thing? If I am Gabriel and he is Michael then who is Vsauce?
My man. You are moving too fast. These are the latest videos of Vesauce era, a bit more ... Philosophical. 😅 I recommend you check out the earlier works first. My favorite new ones that u can watch is "the future of reasoning" 👍
Just a classic example of overthinking until you reach absolutely foolish conclusions. Words describe ideas and ideas exist in our minds. Some ideas describe physical things and some describe ideas. The entire thing is laughable.
bro just be reacting to anything now
But what is anything?
this video does count in the 'anything' category i must say
@@ItsMikeyYo mate wait til you see the video of him eating a burger
I’m not mad at it lmao
Does anything exist?
I hope we get more vsauce reactions, you clearly enjoy this too. I watched most of his videos few years ago and it's fun to rewatch it now
yeah, same here
Every few months I’ll rewatch basically everything of his, lol. Hope he uploads a full video soon.
the banach tarski paradox vsauce video still has me f'ed up 9 years later... watch that next
Yes, that one is my favorite together with the one on counting past infinity. The mathematics of infinity is extremely interesting and we actually have a much more rigorous and exact understanding of infinity than most people think.
The vsauce video "what is down" is always my recommendation to people
Up dog! Up dog is always down 😎
Vsauce is seriously one of the most creative and interesting RUclipsrs on the platform. Unreal content creation. Love your reactions too bro keep it up!
Hoping this does well so we can get more vsauce reactions
The music of Vsauce is also a thing of its own. When Michael says “Or is it?” And the beat drops we all go nuts
"I am death, and I am the scattering" goes incredibly hard
"do chairs actually exist?" *37 minutes later:* "I am not a thing that dies and scatters, I am death, and I am the scattering."
just wanted to say that i love the non-music reactions as well :)
17:57 it can lie to you or use false information pretty well too

5:40 bro this is so funny 😭😭😭😭
RUclips is now putting this video in the algorithm for people who like Vsauce, and never saw you before, so good job I think!
VSauce is a treasure trove, but if I can make a recommendation based on something you said in the last video, watch the "What will we miss?" one.
I need more Jon and Vsauce videos! I need that "Messages for the Future" reaction!
-Edit, I could on and on. "Cruel Bombs","The Banach-Tarski Paradox", "What is Déjà vu?" are all classics in my humble opinion.

love watching you react to this stuff (without which there would be no "this stuff", as we've learned)
One of his best videos for sure. I love this idea of you reacting to things beyond music too. Keep it up please!
this is easily my favorite vsauce vid, so glad you checked it out!
Banach Tarski Paradox, Zipf's Law and Supertasks are all must watchs from vsauce too, loving these videos
This is where science and language clash.
those are not mutually exclusive
we had that same advert with "simples" in australia

lol I love that you reacted to this
no joke i literally just subbed yesterday after watching your first Vsauce react video LETS GO!

lol love these reactions
Each of your videos is a small masterpiece that surprises with its originality and creativity. Keep up the good work!🌃💻♠️
"oh god this was a mistake"
Greetings Jon, i really appreciate how you bring diversity to your reactions and how we can experience several genres of media as a community. No matter if it is music, philosophy or anything else. Keep it up.
Wait I thought Jon had a different channel for something like this??. Not complaining tho
Nah keep it here. Love VSauce reactions
@@jacobcorcho2518 i agree like i said im not complaining. His reactions shouldnt just be music imo

You gotta watch "Did people used to look older?". Goated vid.
I really like the VSauce video called "Did People Used to Look Older". I'd thought about it a lot and it was a very interesting video
29:09 😭😭😭😭 i feel that emotion
17:29 oh a reaction series to vsauce would be gas
Looking forward to your next video!
Hell yeah! Another VSauce reaction! Let’s go 🔥
Congrats on 500k mate
I love your vsauce reactions! Pls keep doing them, even if in patron - id probably subscribe for that alone
13:33 This just turned dark
I love what this channel has become 😂 W Jon
Let’s goooo I loved the last vsauce vid you did and this is my favorite of his
omg 500k subs! proud to say I’ve been here since the rock reacts days
3:35 aaaaaaand Philosophy :) lmao
I'm here for Vsauce reacts, and Vsauce reacts only.
keep these coming!
Sending good energy your way JD!
Our perception shapes our reality more than you realize…
React to "Juvenoia". Garantee it will hit deep in the soul.
you gotta break your brain to make your brain.
We need the Soul Burger reaction.
I absolutely love this video
For those, who are still confused, you are not a water. You are a wave.
The menace that is Aaron asking for Jon to wish him happy birthday right before asking for Lil Peep cuz the VSauce video is boring lol
I'm only 11 minutes in, but I really hope he covers one of my early existential crises: why are the single item of clothing referred to as a "pair of pants"
Two legs
if a tree and dog are trog , then a frog and a tree are a 'Free' 😮
yes please more
Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a chair.
MORE VSAUCE 🤌🤌🤌
Simulation is just new word for God in our age. The whole narrative of going “beyond the creator” is endless. People are not even interested in learing about their great-grand parents.
Did people used to look older by vsauce is great
Concepts of a chair
13:48 😭😭😭😭
There are some that say WE are Vsauce. Are we tho? and who are “WE” and what even is a Vsauce. Is Michael talking to his RUclips Chanel like it was a living thing? If I am Gabriel and he is Michael then who is Vsauce?
are we getting a reaction to the new ab soul album?? it’s amazing
YES
Please react to the smiling teddy bear scary creepy video from Vsauce next please
PLEASE react to the banach-tarski paradox Jon PLEASE
More Vsause pwease
My man. You are moving too fast.
These are the latest videos of Vesauce era, a bit more ... Philosophical. 😅
I recommend you check out the earlier works first.
My favorite new ones that u can watch is "the future of reasoning" 👍
This is the greatest trans argument I've ever seen...
hiii
😂😂😭😭😭
10:33 this FUCKED me up
Just a classic example of overthinking until you reach absolutely foolish conclusions. Words describe ideas and ideas exist in our minds. Some ideas describe physical things and some describe ideas. The entire thing is laughable.
But what is a woman (iykyk. This isn't an invitation to debate the question. It's just a reference to another debate)?
