Fun video. I wonder if you put the disc up at the top with the other hand and the initial “fall” went left of the first peg, if the distribution at the bottom would have skewed to the left. What if the starting point wasn’t in the middle at the top but over a couple spots left or right?
Those are great questions. I just mounted the board up on a wall as a display so I can't test it. I like your thinking though and would guess you are right. Each peg could be tested and each direction from that peg could be tested. At the end, I would guess there would be one or two slots that would be favored by each of those options. Like in this example, slots four and five certainly were the most likely landing spot. If you had to bet a nickel on the outcome, how could you not say 4 or 5?
Whoa, creative way of making the board! The show hypnotized me with all of the hexagons.
I didnt expect to be watching 'plinko exposed' today, but here we are. Thanks for sharing.
Nice Experiment, Plinko is an awesome game.
