imagine being in a trailer when you see a little girl on the road so you hammer the breaks and end up drifting into a building killing everyone only to then realize that the girl is a painting *epic prank bro*
@@mylifeinaburger9556But still. Say someones just out of it, they swerve becasuse they see the girl and end up casuing deaths. Seems kind of dangerous to me.
xBigBubba69 It means you are imprudent on what you’re doing. If you’re pretty nervous that you can’t slow down like a normal person, you shouldn’t be driving buddy. Always keep your eyes on the road. Not on the phone, back of the seat, you shouldn’t alarm/distract a driver that often unless your wife is giving labor.
I love the bit about End of History Illusion. My current partner and I met at 40 and 42. When we reflect on how much time we missed out on knowing each other, I always remind him how much we've done in 4 decades. Then think about how much is in store for us in the next 4!

The "End Of History" illusion is relatable. I'm 50 and am aware on a daily basis of not being static and continuing to evolve mentally and physically. Well done. Cheers, mate.

Cole ? that’s not what a Karen is, it’s just what they tend to do. A Karen is somebody who believes that they deserve what they want, and that if they have to put any effort in to get it, then there must be something wrong. A “Karen” is just a fancy term for someone with delusions of entitlement

@@DevKukadia basically, if this is even CLOSE to the "most heartfelt sentences that you've ever listened to" then you've had a pretty depressing life. I have problems with depression, and even for me, this isn't even CLOSE to the "most heartfelt sentences I've ever listened to". Have you never had a parent or a friend say something nice in front of you? How does a UA-camr get "the most heartfelt sentence I've ever listened to" status unless you have nobody who cares about you in real life? That's why I was wondering if you were being sarcastic. It's just no incredibly unlikely that this is actually even close to "the most heartfelt sentences I've ever listened to".

The part about how much you can change in 10 years made me think about one shower thought that I've read on Reddit. It said something along this lines: "People tend to think that if they travel in time to the past, they can make a minor change and that would have enormous repercusions in the present. But they don't tend to make small changes today to have a big impact in their future."

I don't understand how 4:20 is effective. You'd see the colorful blurb of paint on the road from far away as you approach it. If anything, it distracts you from the road more than tell you to slow down.
no... for sensible drivers, yes they can see it. but for DISTRACTED drivers seeing this while being distracted causes your brain to think irrationally and slow down at the distance they are supposed to be at, the distance that you can see the girl CLEARLY... :)
It's also dangerously crying wolf. Next time "is that a kid in the road or is it just one of those dodgy optical illusions again?" "shit this one's real! too late..." bump
@@godwin972 And that's not good. Someone might try to swerve off the road if they think they are going too fast to stop before they hit what they previously couldn't see (because it had jumped into existence from a smear of color), thus hitting people on the sidewalk, stationary objects that could harm the vehicle's occupant, and so on. It's a very irresponsible way of trying to scare people into being more careful. Harsh lessons can be good, but leaving illusions lying around like landmines to leap in front of the person moving a two-ton metal object while it is in motion at potentially high velocity is reckless and foolish. The very real dangers that can be presented by faking an emergency situation (like an imminent car collision with this illusion) was highlighed in a United States federal court case which ruled that freedom of expression, as promised in the United States Constitution, does not apply when the form of expression can threaten the safety of others. As an example, the court stated that someone crying "Fire!" in a crowded building could cause a stampede. Since someone could be trampled to death, or fall down a staircase from trying to descend to quickly and break their neck, the person creating the false alarm would be guilty of a punishable crime.
And what if someone is tired or coming home and a little distracted? Then they slam on their brakes or swerve and it causes an accident? It ends up being a lose lose situation. Either someone becomes desensitized to the stimulus of seeing a child in the road, or they panic/cause a wreck. It's pretty idiotic. I wouldn't be shocked to hear about a lawsuit against the city and it being removed
The illusion of control can also be seen in elevator "close door'" buttons. All elevators have them and none of them work. They aren't even hooked up to electricity; they are buttons only because we can push them. People became anxious and frustrated without them. The "open door" buttons actually work.
Reminds me of that one Spongebob episode where there's a scene where his brain can't find something and it catches on fire. (on another note, your dog is cute.)
7:10 - my teeth before - Don’t mind meh Left circle = the last tooth at the back in the left Right circle = last tooth but it’s at the right The dentist when he was going to fill my teeth at the right tooth ( drills it ) Me : Shouldn’t it be the perfect size 4 the filling? What the dentist did was he made the tooth shorter but I don’t still hate him 4 dat .-.
The Illusion of Control is actually a really relatable one. When I'm playing co-op games with the boys I'll sometimes accidentally think I'm controlling my friend's avatar, and not realize that until they point it out.
Bro went from illusions to anamorphic illusions to titanic to refraction to perspective illusion to thermal inversions to teeth holes to motivational future quotes to looking at other people and their experiences taking their advice to imagination to illusions again to motivation to Investment in finance to stocks. what a show, Bravo!
***** yeah, school will teach you stuff that you will actualy remember a week after you read it .__. Dont get me wrong, i love these videos, but they are not here to teach you. They are here to spark curiosity in you, so you can go and actually do research and study what you want and the things that you find interesting. Learning requires for you to "track" the knwoledge you want to its roots, you need to follow the correlation between facts to actually understand something. Watching a youtube video is not enough to actualyl "learn" something new ;D

The problem with the Canada little girl decal: Drivers are going to eventually not going to slow down, knowing that it is a decal, but one day, when there is an actual little kid on the road, they are going to speed right over them.
The type of camouflage you showed is used in the car industry today. Whenever a manufacturer has developed a new model they will paint their prototype with such a pattern so that it is impossible to determine (and steal) the shape using images.
"PAUL, PAUL! SLOW DOWN! THERE'S A GIRL PLAYING IN THE STREET!" "Calm down, Bill. It's just that anamorphic illusion again." *Splat* "Uh, Paul. Is that blood an illusion too?"
"PAUL SHE'S SPLATTERED ON THE SIDEWALK!!" "Calm down. This illusion looks stretched the closer you get to it." "AND THE BLOOD?" *Paul taps head with finger* "It's just to emphasize the danger."
@@classifiedamphibian4649 That's bullshit. The earth is flat. Ergo, nothing can be upside down. Look it up.

It means you are imprudent on what you’re doing. If you’re pretty nervous that you can’t slow down like a normal person, you shouldn’t be driving buddy. Always keep your eyes on the road. Not on the phone, back of the seat, you shouldn’t alarm/distract a driver that often unless your wife is giving labor.

@@DevKukadia basically, if this is even CLOSE to the "most heartfelt sentences that you've ever listened to" then you've had a pretty depressing life. I have problems with depression, and even for me, this isn't even CLOSE to the "most heartfelt sentences I've ever listened to". Have you never had a parent or a friend say something nice in front of you? How does a UA-camr get "the most heartfelt sentence I've ever listened to" status unless you have nobody who cares about you in real life? That's why I was wondering if you were being sarcastic. It's just no incredibly unlikely that this is actually even close to "the most heartfelt sentences I've ever listened to".
@@awesomeferret omg bro not deep, geez, why u deepin everything, wtf u meen have i ever had a parent or friend say smth nice in front of u, no sht? Bro your the one that probably has no one that cares about u if im being fr. This guy

4:00 is just asking for an accident and more deaths, you don’t slow down when you see a kid you come to a full stop and you get rear ended.
It's at a pretty big distance, no slamming required, they will slow down. Then they will realize it's an illusion
aarnts bro no. Someone’s going to die
@@Chris-hz2xc not necessarily

@@Chris-hz2xc I have no doubt it will cause accidents, but I don't think it will be often at all
The part about how much you can change in 10 years made me think about one shower thought that I've read on Reddit. It said something along this lines: "People tend to think that if they travel in time to the past, they can make a minor change and that would have enormous repercusions in the present. But they don't tend to make small changes today to have a big impact in their future."
Daaaaam

We share different perspectives on that.

I don't understand how 4:20 is effective. You'd see the colorful blurb of paint on the road from far away as you approach it. If anything, it distracts you from the road more than tell you to slow down.
no... for sensible drivers, yes they can see it. but for DISTRACTED drivers seeing this while being distracted causes your brain to think irrationally and slow down at the distance they are supposed to be at, the distance that you can see the girl CLEARLY... :)
Until there's actually a child and you think it's the same old trick
420 watcha smokin
Shadows weren’t on the decal. If one was to see a shadow, they will slow
Is it just me or was this pretty much the most comforting episode of Vsauce ever?
I agree!
Man, this illusion is crazy Micheal, it looked like you were moving the entire video.
That decal of the kid in the road actually seems potentially dangerous: somebody could see that and slam on the brakes
that's the point
@@godwin972
...and cause the car behind to rear-end it.
It's also dangerously crying wolf.
Next time "is that a kid in the road or is it just one of those dodgy optical illusions again?" "shit this one's real! too late..." bump
@@godwin972 And that's not good. Someone might try to swerve off the road if they think they are going too fast to stop before they hit what they previously couldn't see (because it had jumped into existence from a smear of color), thus hitting people on the sidewalk, stationary objects that could harm the vehicle's occupant, and so on.
It's a very irresponsible way of trying to scare people into being more careful. Harsh lessons can be good, but leaving illusions lying around like landmines to leap in front of the person moving a two-ton metal object while it is in motion at potentially high velocity is reckless and foolish.
The very real dangers that can be presented by faking an emergency situation (like an imminent car collision with this illusion) was highlighed in a United States federal court case which ruled that freedom of expression, as promised in the United States Constitution, does not apply when the form of expression can threaten the safety of others. As an example, the court stated that someone crying "Fire!" in a crowded building could cause a stampede. Since someone could be trampled to death, or fall down a staircase from trying to descend to quickly and break their neck, the person creating the false alarm would be guilty of a punishable crime.
exactly
Did anyone else hear "traitors" when Michael was talking about the investment bankers?
It seems strangely fitting
He didn't say traitors?
Easter egg maybe :)
Then what did he say?
Kool maniaK He said traders
4:02 I feel like that's the WORST idea ever! After a while, drivers might see kids and think the kid is just a decal on the road and not slow down :O
And what if someone is tired or coming home and a little distracted? Then they slam on their brakes or swerve and it causes an accident?
It ends up being a lose lose situation.
Either someone becomes desensitized to the stimulus of seeing a child in the road, or they panic/cause a wreck. It's pretty idiotic. I wouldn't be shocked to hear about a lawsuit against the city and it being removed
Yea and what if some dumb kid thinks it's funny to stand right over the sticker in the road?
Ah yes and the kid would be wearing the same thing, in the same position, and while playing with a pink ball.
The illusion of control can also be seen in elevator "close door'" buttons. All elevators have them and none of them work. They aren't even hooked up to electricity; they are buttons only because we can push them. People became anxious and frustrated without them. The "open door" buttons actually work.
That is quite interesting!
They certainly work in the country I live in!
@@phuketexplorer they don't in the one I live in...the USA...

4:18 Good Idea, until someone swerves into traffic or gets rear-ended

The Illusion of Control is actually a really relatable one. When I'm playing co-op games with the boys I'll sometimes accidentally think I'm controlling my friend's avatar, and not realize that until they point it out.
I have the feeling sometimes when I watch people playing games on youtube. Like if I think hard enough it will change the outcome.
Man, how much weed do you smoke? Just kidding, I know what you mean.
I love how you start on one topic and wind up somewhere completely different at the end.

***** Don't generalize them, mine did.
***** yeah, school will teach you stuff that you will actualy remember a week after you read it .__.
Dont get me wrong, i love these videos, but they are not here to teach you. They are here to spark curiosity in you, so you can go and actually do research and study what you want and the things that you find interesting. Learning requires for you to "track" the knwoledge you want to its roots, you need to follow the correlation between facts to actually understand something. Watching a youtube video is not enough to actualyl "learn" something new ;D

The problem with the Canada little girl decal:
Drivers are going to eventually not going to slow down, knowing that it is a decal, but one day, when there is an actual little kid on the road, they are going to speed right over them.
No they won't. The decal isn't moving. The real person will, it'll be obvious for drivers.

The type of camouflage you showed is used in the car industry today. Whenever a manufacturer has developed a new model they will paint their prototype with such a pattern so that it is impossible to determine (and steal) the shape using images.
