Keep in mind that trying to succesfully fold past 10 layers means you somehow have to fold over 1000 layers of paper without tearing them, you have to stretch them so it actually fold but its very easy to stretch them too far and tear them

I love how when you try to fold it again, the very paper crumbles away to dust, like you've caused a reality-breaking paradox.
Actually felt that comment. Like he was trying something impossible for this sort of paper. Like it can’t resist more than xy folds.
The paper can’t handle the force , if paper material advances you probably would be able to fold a couple more times but eventually it becomes impossible, I think there’s a equation that says for a paper to be folded 50 times it would be able to reach the sun

I'm perplex that we as a species are so obsessed on how many times can we fold a piece of paper.
I think it is probably because it is a very simple and accessible example of where logic and science collide. Then you can throw in some determination and problem solving.
Perplexed
The fact that one thin slice of paper can assert itself to be an object mathematically capable of reaching the moon has such a unique fascination to it, it doesn't violate any laws yet still impossible
That hydraulic press is a very useful thing. Everyone should have it at home!
But remember. Do not try this at home!
Yes, I use a hydraulic press all the time when I make breakfast. Flatten the pancakes, crack the eggs, destroy the milk carton,
I use it all the time! It makes for a great hand massage.
I use mine to get wrinkles out of clothes and fold clothes too, I fit 30 shirts in a stack 1cm tall, which compensates for the storage space the hydraulic press takes up.
@@alanspencer433 It can also reduce wrinkles on the face, great for stopping ageing. You can use it only once and results are permanent

Lately I've been binging on Mythbusters, and just the other day they featured this exact thing. They were able to fold a piece of paper 11 times.
Well, the paper was 200 feet long, and they used a full-sized steamroller, but hey they did get 11 folds.
If you fold a Paper 45 times, you can reach the moon.
So it means that mass of paper will be scattered in some 300000kms it will be impossible to even feel the presence of paper then what can we say about watching it?
And first of all we need some godlike paper so it can survive 45folds or even 10folds
It will be reduced to atoms
So in present times it's impossible to make a paper survive 45 folds
So no! It can't reach moon

@@kenpachiartist1723 Thanks☺
I can explain this equation :). It's the ratio of paper thickness to it's size. When you fold the paper on half it's gets thicker 2 times, when you fold it again it's 4 times thicker, then 8, 16, 32 and so one. When you fold it 10 times it's 512 thicker. If you have 2 times thinner paper you can fold it one more time having the same thickness at the end. 2 dimension layer of graphene has 0,000 000 335 mm thicknes so you propably can fold it 23 times until it reaches 1,4cm of thickness. The smallest distance according to physicist is Planck constant (0, 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 6m ) and it's the resolution of our space. If you have something that is this thick you can fold it 106 times until it reaches something about 1cm thickness
10 times would be 1024 actually

Yes, not everyone has access to arms
Yea not everybody has paper

Hydraulic Press: "All things can be crushed by my power!"
Also Hydraulic Press "Is not possible."
Mythbusters already did this, with a football-field-sized sheet of paper. They did it, but it took a road roller to flatten it out enough. By the end the stack weighed hundreds of pounds and was thousands of sheets thick.
actually easier to get a hydraulic press than a football-field sized sheet of paper.
How would the mass change?
@@NASSAfellow The mass didn't change, it just concentrated itself into a smaller area so that instead of being able to lift a corner of the sheet yourself, it took a forklift to fold it over the final time.

POV: You're in those crappy public bathrooms that give you the thinnest humanly possible single-ply toilet paper in the world
Origami: are you challenging me?
Well, after the 7th folding, you have 2^7=128 layers of paper. After the 8th folding, it is 256 layers. The size of the paper doesn't matter, the bend is local, and that's where the 512 layers tear apart because of the thickness.
Witness the thiccness.
What if you just used 256 separate sheets of paper, with no folds? My guess is that the paper would still lose its integrity under that much pressure.
Doesn't the size of the paper affect the radius of the bend though?
@@LexJones207 hah. Nice.
@@Max_Mustermann i thought the same thing
I folded the paper 23 times wihtout using support heavy objects.. i almost created a supermassive black hole like this guy on the top comments and l stopped it now

Finally someone that noticed
I tried this at home despite the warning, and regretted it. I almost created a black hole from folding the paper too many times. Very dangerous.
So, my theory is that after 7 folds you are actually just tearing the fibers at the folds/edges, and not really “folding” anymore.
Stick to your day job.
Sounds about right. It's only folding if you can manage to unfold it while having the paper remain completely intact
Eh, more or less. The issue is that paper isn't infinitely thin, so all the folds have width. It's hypothetically possible to fold it more than 7 times. You just need an absolutely massive sheet of paper to account for the folds. Here, the press was essentially ripping the paper to cheat and make it look like it was folded thinner
no...no...no...it's after 7 folds you start to bend time and space itself

Where is the relevancy police?
I think they are pretty relevant because Hydraulic Presses are commonly used for forging, clinching, moulding, blanking, punching, deep drawing, and metal forming operations. The hydraulic press is advantageous in manufacturing, it gives the ability to create more intricate shapes and can be economical with materials.

It was on that moment, when the paper had been folded seven times and had been placed on the hydraulic press... Alarms began to shriek as the pressure mounted. Sparks flew from actuators and junction boxes. The legendary eighth fold... The impossible fold, it was happening. But would it be completed? Or would the strain be too much for the industrial press?
Lights flickered.
The very metal began to make ominous noises.
It was almost there, just a few more PSI. A fraction more force...
Bolts sheared off and ricocheted across the room like bullets.
Tiedown cables snapped with loud 'twang!'s.
Transformers outside blew.
Windows shattered.
The very ground shook.
And then...
The hydraulic press exploded, sending fragments in every direction.
When the smoke cleared, there, in the crater that was once the middle of the building, a piece of paper sat... The eighth fold barely valid, but valid. Arcs of power leapt from the material to the debris around it as it glowed in an unnatural blue light.
It was done.
The legendary Octipleat.
The hardest substance known to science.

No, the rule was, "You can't fold a paper in half more than 8 times."
Nine folds would be 512 times the orginal thickness.

Seven is the limit.
After seven, the paper cuts itself: it's no longer "folding."

On 27 January 2002, high school student, Britney Gallivan of Pomona, California, USA, folded a single piece of paper in half 12 times. Her name is in the Guinnes Book of World Records. "A paper can only be folded 7 times" is a myth.
@@poopyfarts6010 To fold a paper 12 times you'd need an extraordinarily thin paper with huge surface area. If we're talking about a standardized 8.5" by 11" piece of letter paper, it is physically impossible to fold it more than 7 times without extreme force (far more than what a human can output) and permanently compromising the structural integrity of the paper, to an extent where it may no longer be considered paper.
@@poopyfarts6010 The paper used to achieve the record was 0.033 inches (~0.8 mm) thick and 4000 feet (.75 miles/1.2 km) long (~4,360 times longer than normal paper). Unless you happen to have over 13 football fields' worth of paper, and a place to fold it, this can't be replicated.
@@distraction2803 Even normal A3 or A2 size paper (if thin enough) can be folded 8 times. I didn't say anything wrong. Its just that some people say things like "impossible", "a law of physics", etc. but they don't really know what they are talking about.

*Me looking sadly to my Hydraulic press*
Y'all remember when a paper exploded while trying to be folder 7 times in hydraulic press
The Mythbusters gang did 11 folds..........on a football field sized piece of paper 😊
When he accomplished it i was like “take that you bastard!” I was just so excited for it to be folded an eighth time.
Very interesting video but I am not convinced by two facts:
1) you need a continous gigantic piece of paper and not different papers glued together, as those parts are actually weaker and because of the symmetry, it's where you fold the first 4, 5 times
2) the paper after the 7th folding is not very well folded, as the edges get apart when removing force on the hydraulic press. So actually you feel the strenght of paper only in part of the sheet.
It was still very interesting but I would be very interested in some paper company producing a football field surface sheet of paper and try that again!
By the way, like for the enthusiasm and suspense!
mytbusters did that. also the record is 12. Guinness book of world records certified.
