An infinite number of mathematicians walks into a bar. The first orders a pint. The second orders half, the third a quarter, and so on. The bartender pours them 2 pints and says, "Sort it out yourselves."
10/10 my lovely person
Brilliant but I think I heard that before somewhere
The bartender then spends the rest of eternity kicking them out while they try divvying up the portions
i reckon they just dont know their limit
Good Luck to him with the tip

"Our impressive ability to confuse ourselves", I love this phrase.
Since watching this video when it first came out I have had several nightmares where I have to perform supertasks. Such as cutting that cake or making holes or stacking squares of infinitely halfling size, etc. Odd random stuff.
I also know in these nightmares I am making progress but always know that progress will never have an end point and the realization of that usually causes me to jolt awake.
My point is... Thank you Michael for providing me with nightmares I never knew I feared.
wait so does that mean your nightmares are time limited?
HOW MANY TIMES DID YOU DO IT!?!? WE HAVE TO KNOW!!!!!!!
DID YOUR NIGHTMARES END FASTER AND FASTER???
WAS THE LAMP ON OR OFF!?!?!?!

The amount of sweaters this man has on at one time is terrifying
yes
Even those can't control he amount of energy he radiates
i thought he was gonna talk about it at the end haha
Real answer: every time the video cuts he takes the sweater off, puts an extra sweater on and puts the first sweater back. Then the video starts and he takes it off again so he never has more than 3 or 4 layers of clothing at a time. Fake answer: Vsauce bends the subatomic laws of physics so he can wear as many as he wants

Mathematician: "Math shouldn't be bound by the realities of spacetime"
Scientist: "This why everyone hates you"
As a physicist and a mathematician, I can tell you this is exactly why I hate myself
Scientists are mathematicians who lost interest in the abstract.
He Who Must Not Be Named tell that to theoretical physicists
@@irrelevantgaymer6195 question that is unrelated to the abstract, but...
Shouldn't "theoretical physicists" be called "hypothetical physicists", or do I not understand their roles in science correctly?
He Who Must Not Be Named a hypothesis is an assumption that’s not based any evidence, a theory is an explanation with the most evidence. Theoretical physicists deal with theory and implications of said theory, for example, the theoretical physicists working on the math behind alcubierre drives use general relativity and it’s implications if negative mass existed outside of virtual particles

Hm
the universe feels disturbingly engineered to avoid paradoxes (beyond thought experiments) at times
Makes me think: "This stuff is possible, but we could never do it. What if there is something that could do the impossible possible?"
That's an incorrect way to put it. Rather, the reason we have no paradoxes is because that's what a paradox refers to, something beyond the logic of the universe. Something our of reality. Something unreal, untrue. If they did exist, they wouldn't be called paradoxes. Even then, the fact that these paradoxes don't exist answers why the universe exists how it is now in the first place.
Is this the paradox of paradoxes? There must be paradoxes in order for there to be no paradoxes?

I hope he takes them all off.
Or is he?
He is not because he has already taken off all of his sweaters when the video ended.
"Its a cake you can eat but cannot frost." And my nightmare has come true.
@Jaden Valentin you still need infinite frosting tho
Frost it before you cut it.
@@camkid5866 at some point you won't taste any of it then
But…if you’ve already cut the cake infinitely, there’s another way we could do this. Separate the frosting in the same way you had cut the cake, in a finite time. After time is up you’ll have an infinite amount of frosting for all that delicious cake.
Can you really eat something with infinite surface area though? Seems impossible
All the times Michael takes off his sweater:
3:37
9:14
10:54
14:08
17:05
You're welcome
You made me happy.
@@Frostgecko7 you're welcome :)
Oh, so it wasn't a supertask. Missed opportunity imo
@@varietywiarrior yeah, I was sad when I found out the gaps weren't getting smaller at a constant decaying rate :(
Well he would need an infinite amount of sweaters 🤔
I feel like the concept of the plank length helps give these hypothetical experiments conclusive results since it’s now understood that there is likely a point at which you could not make something like a slice of cake thinner than it already is. I may be wrong about as I am not very informed on the relevant information but it was just a thought I had that would help solve the questions posed by this classic sauce video.
Thompson forgot to pay the energy bill because he's spent the last 3 months obsessively switching off the lamp. The lamp is off problems solved
What was he doing for 3 months when it only takes 2 minutes?
the scientific answer to this is the lamp would just explode making your 2 minutes, money, and your lamp worthless because in reality infinite math doesn't exist in real world
@@helper_bot i thinck he should make joke out of this
didn`t get it?
*[(WHOOSH)]*
Gabriel must be having a huge birthday party
With an infinite number of guests. Now that's a lot of frosting if you ask me
it's still only enough cake for several people though.
he turned infinite years old
Yup
Bet i d get the smallest piece
"is the lamp on or off?"
Yes. Yes it is
It actually breaks lol
Then it is off...
No. No it isn't.
Perhaps. Perhaps it might.
Exactly.
One of my favorite Vsauce videos. I've come back to it dozens of times since it released.
Michael: Enter... the Supertask.
15 year old me at 3 am: *chills*
Enter... the bed! You have school tomorrow!
@@MorderElg lmao
This is so relatable for some reason
>You will never have an infinite number of balls.
Why even live?
He is right tho. There will never be a large enough urn to hold my balls.
The Earth is a fidget spinner
We don't know
it's just a exaple
ExceIsior _ of

POV: Micheal establishes his dominance over you
The keyword in that is "infinite." You are infinitely dominated by mathematical eternity, and you must accept this.
damn
666th like >:)
@@james_fisch infinity-1 easy
lmao
The fact that he took his sweaters more or less at 1/2, 3/4 and 7/8 of the lenght of the vídeo makes It even crazier
"You will never build a lamp that can turn on and off arbitrarily fast."
DON'T STOP ME NOW.
Christopher Hall I dunno but I'm sure as heck gonna find out. >:)
are you going to tho?
Sgt. Dickbed Yes. .-. I will find out
but it runs on alternating current.
It cant go arbitrarily fast. the light would have to exceed the speed of light to do so, which is impossible.
Sees cake: Uses The Banach-Tarsky Paradox to duplicate
Mmm..I love creating infinite amounts of cake by cutting the cakes into five pieces each and assembling two new cakes for every five pieces
(knocks down gabriels cake)
omg i’m so sorry
(cake continues to fall)
me: what
michael : my cake
gabriel: sobbing
69 likes
Would that mean when it falls and since it has an infinite surface area
It’ll go infinitely go around the earth?
*looks into camera like i'm on the office*
it's no big deal, he can just make another one in 2 minutes
Jalfire yes but he has to make a cake while another one is infinitely falling if he can’t make the cake he will DROWN
Michael gives clear indication in his tone when the video is about to end. Till the time, you are so absorbed in it that you feel a bit disappointed when the video ends, especially when you have exhausted all previous video.
Also, my opinion for that thumbnail supertask: the colour on top will be
#FFAE42 (RGB 225:174:66)
I enjoyed this video an infinite amount in a finite amount of time
Me too; I keep coming back to it. And it always makes me tear up a bit about curiosity, at the end.
Devin Wirgart Only an immortal can do that... You’re a God/Goddess (depending on your gender)
... and in infinite realities.
ZUZUTHEGIANT yah missed the point of the video! Was Achilles a god?
Deadprez101 thanks for taking us to the original road of this pointless conversation! Now...
*Horse riding is an instrument, right?*
That audience went from 100-0 real quick
Lol, they must have been confused
They got science-boner
+Niko Kinnunen lol me and my close friends never knew that science-boner a thing. we thought we were weird. maybe Vsouce should explain this
+Brock Aband I dont want to be the 101st like... but il do it anyway
+Brock Aband the audience halved at intervals of half the previous interval length.
I feel like I learned so much and nothing at the same time
underrated comment
@@mohammedalmozaiyen9201 Stolen comment
Quantum knowledge
quantum mechanics says that you have done a supertask
That is basically the point of vsauce. It's never the details, but the conclusion and big ideas, which are often oddly insightful
Planck Time is the fps of our simulation
planck length is the pixel
If Vsauce doesn't make you feel pretty good about being a human, I don't know what will.

if aliens show up, well, take their tech. #humanityfirst
I love that closing paragraph about neanderthals and human curiosity. It's really inspiring and has fantastic impact on the rest of the video
Micheal: as long you have an infinitely large home
Homeless people: You underestimate my power.
