what about people with eyes closer together or further apart than average.

The "rule of thumb" was/ is (?) a legal term with a very negative story. It was legal to beat your wife with a stick the same circumference of your thumb but no larger. Maybe call it a different moniker?

What do you do if you're blind in your left eye?

J'ai un doute car à mon avis il faut aussi prendre en compte la distance du pouce jusqu'à l'arbre.

I dont get it?🤔... 2 meters is just over 6ft... How do you get that from the tree to the road is only 6 ft?🤔... Then you x 10 = 60ft or 20m 🤔... My point is where or how did you arrive at the distance between your thumbs were only 2 meters???🤔

Im still confused

1:57 "No math nedeed"🤣 Great job tho

dont really get how you guess "i think thats 2 meters"

Nice. But...as a knife maker I cringed seeing your Mora stuck in the dirt. Rocks in soil can chip high carbon steel knife tips. The sand also doesn't do the edge any favors. Now go and sin no more :)

Looks at object in distance. Yep. Its far away. Easy.

The actual Rule of Thumb goes back to the late 1600s when a man was allowed to discipline his wife or children by thrashing them with a stick so long as the stick was no bigger than his thumb. Thank goodness we took something barbaric and used the same scale to do something positive and creative.

4:55 *I think most people that can guess the approximate distance between the two sighted thumbs without actually walking to the target, can most likely guess the distance between them and the target destination anyway without using this "rule of thumb".* *What I wonder is, if anyone has invented a way to guesstimate the distance between the sighted thumbs in the first place. Assuming the person doesn't have any clue about how high distant objects are. Now THAT would be a game changer!* *Interesting video, thanks*

Now that's pretty cool 😎 👌 👍

Well if an emp knocks out all technology this will be useful lets all hope we never need to use it and lets all hope we keep our thumbs and dont have to use a stick

It only works in metric. In the US liberty system, you would have to convert inches into yards.

danke

Please use this method to measure the distance to the moon and sun !! They are not fat away. then post

Pretty sure that x10 is using math

Why would I want or need to know the distance to an object?

Ahh, ze Germanz. Fingering out ze entire Woarld from ze woodn Sofa...

I don't understand how to find the distance between the target and your thumb. Also, it doesn't work with inches/feet - unless, again, I'm not understanding. Thank you 😊

Crazy... the horizontal distance due to eye shift Will remain unchanged in all situations. And how come that horizontal shift be 2 meter.? I don't think it is the right method. Or am I missing something? 😮🤔

Remember to bring your thumb with you wherever you go

Very cool 😎👍 Do us guys a little narrow betwixt the eyes 👁️👁️ need to recalibrate anything?

Sorry, I didn't understand the rule

If you can't sense the distance to something 30 meters away... better NOT go outside...

Remember Brexit! Remember the metre is an abstract unit of measure, it was incorrectly calculated at the time of Napoleon. The imperial units are related to human dimensions. So that is what you should use when gauging distances. Be one with the processes of nature.

thank you so much for this trick!!!

Nice one.

Dammit you tricked me into doing math anyway.

Stinging nettle is also one of the healthiest things that grow in the wild. When they’re young and tender, sauté them in some grass fed butter. EAT YOUR ENEMIES!

Great tutorial Sir

Actually pretty accurate that’s a good trick to judge distances indeed but it can only work for relatively close things, with far away distances it becomes nearly impossible to judge

If we are just guessing at "2 M", and on the second example, "20 M", then what's the point of this? Just look at your target and guess the distance, since this strategy relies completely on guessing distances in the first place.

Thank you

I've always wanted to know how far away this one star is i see in the sky all the time. By my calculations, it's about 2 thumbs away. Awesome!

I only have one working eye not going to work for me.

I thought there was a note about “no math”? 😂

Thank you! It works nicely

Sometimes I measure the distance to other people, but I use my middle finger. Works too.

Way too confusing.... If you are a size 9 boot or shoe UK that's around 300 millimetres so stand heal to tow three times and then add a little bit on and it should make a metre... then watch something floating down the water count how many seconds it takes to pass the metre,then you can find out how many metres per second the water is flowing...

Nice try ✌️ur da man bro🤩

👎🏼

Best explanation I've seen 👍

If I can’t figure the distance between me and the tree I also can’t figure the distance between the “thumbs”

Using this method i figured out that my future wife is only 4km away ware i am 😂
