[@matthewjamestaylor]

You start by multiplying x+y by x+y taking each element in the multiplicand and multiplying those with each term in the multiplier (x times x, plus x times y plus y times x plus y times y - AKA FOIL, firsts-outers-inners-lasts). You take that product and multiply that by x+y. Then that product by x+y. After combining terms you get the distributed form of x+y to the fourth. What he showed. Need a big whiteboard to show my work, sorry.

[@bendingsands87]

I'm curious to know how the result would look if only one ball were falling at a time without other balls behind it forcing it down. It is videos like this that can make kids fall in love with math. It is amazing the things you can predict with math.

[@joaoliduario]

I had the same thought. And they are not falling from exactly the same spot.

[@tsaszymborska7389]

Exactly. The opening should be narrower. But then it would often be clogged, so this is probably the best compromise.

[@brucebeverly2629]

bendingsands87 - You may see it in the Plinko pricing game on the TV show "The Price is Right." Drew Carey, the host, always instructs the contestant to drop only one puck into the pegs at a time. Interestingly, contestants choose differing drop points while trying to find the "lucky" spot. If they understood the normal distribution, they would only drop the puck from the center position directly above the $10,000 (highest) result.

[@EpicFishStudio]

and what interests mathematicans? questioning why all this works like it does, why would it be arbitrary...

[@vakusdrake3224]

If anything you ought to expect things to look more like a normal distribution without other factors like the balls hitting each other and messing with things.

SHUBHAM KHARE or the thumbnail is the end of the video...

[@shubhamkhare8749]

Courtney Henry 🤔 hmmm...

[@thomasdalton9504]

Michael drawing X’s in math(s) as ‘x’ instead of ‘𝑥’ really messes with my ocd

[@RichGreene1]

Dude...where where you when I was in school. I struggled with this stuff my whole life (graduate, post grad, and doctoral degrees). Finally, at 58 this is so clear. Cant wait to watch your other videos. Thanks!

[@Sollace]

What the hell was that at 10:30!?

[@robertkiss2350]

It was randomness.

[@et496]

Also watch the Galton board

[@et496]

And he might have flipped the black board over

[@et496]

Which had his wife

[@Sollace]

Huh. Now I see it. I slowed it down an it definitely looks like the back of a woman. Before I just saw something that looked like a gorey mophead creature.

[@jehugarcia]

noooo! Why Am I Watching a video about math and not hating it?

[@zer0bre]

Why would you?

[@reenapandey8433]

jehugarcia becos u r not asked to solve questions

[@LucasGarrow]

Hi jehu!

[@maximthefox]

The combination of performance enthusiasm and occasional phrase like "ooh this is going to be fun"

[@RuLeZ1988]

Renna Pandey No, its because of the way it is presented. His fascination for it, which drives him, catches you.

[@adveshdarvekar7733]

Finally I learned how to expand the 4th or more powers of (x+y). Thanks Michael. You teach better than anyone else!

[@oliviaa7888]

Why does math make me stop crying when it’s in video form, but makes me cry when it’s in test form?

[@LolForFun422]

This brought back so many memories from high school maths... Thanks for the throwback Michael! Great video!

[@wishiwasabear]

Michael is evolving into Water from the Nile. And I'm thirsty for it

[@supra107]

Grand Illusions from the Nile

[@richardl1708]

Kuma lmfao

[@danielgebert4556]

I would love to see how Michael would make and teach a high school math curriculum. I think the way he relates math to many other things might help some of that procedural math stick better in young minds, and maybe help with correlative thinking in other classes.

[@flavioboscarol1555]

Fantastic and super explanation. It's not easy to explain....let alone captivate visitors on these matters. I repeat, excellent job.

[@asho4821]

6:35 quick math!

[@joeyebeling7681]

That's crazy! A natural way of finding the coefficients of powered binomials is mind blowing. I had no idea about this. Does this mean that if we did this triangle in 3-dimensions that we would be able to find the coefficients of a trinomial? None of your videos has every made me this excited. Thank you!

[@abhishekmewar671]

Any trinomial can be further categorised into a binomial for instance.(a+b+c)^n=(x+c)^n; x=a+b; and so on. And as far as a triangle in 3D is concernedit would be a pyramidal shape with each of the four planes along the sides would be represented by a Pascal triangle consisting of the combination of one of the ordered pairs of (x,y),(y,z) and (z,x)

[@treees420]

Abhishek Mewar don't you mean a triangular prism?

[@ethanjensen661]

Yes! It's called Pascal's tetrahedron. I came up with a way of finding coefficients at any triangle layer

[@GglSux]

Your videos are one of the few things that remind me of the almost universal "inner beauty" of things and concepts that envelopes and surrounds us every day, that can be "discovered" and appreciated if we can only keep Your curiosity "alive". And Your videos helps me to do that, so thanks a million for another great video. P.S. That was one elaborate "outro" !!! who made it?? (if I may be so bold as to ask)D.S.

[@Julian-ej7tr]

Any intro to Michael's toys can be taken out of context and it's amazing

[@gok7393]

That intro almost gave me a heart attack

[@Greennoob2]

I love this one especially. I can understand the maths and relate to this. Pretty cool

[@TheRealSamSpedding]

Oh yeah the maths is cool, but it’s seriously not coincidences. Have a look at the proofs for all these results and you’ll see why they’re all connected. That’s where the true beauty of maths lies, in the connection between seemingly unrelated ideas.

[@aP1atypus]

"I can understand the maths" "coincidences" gtfo

[@JackCarver_Reporting_in]

_"Pretty cool coincidences"_ .... Just no.

[@larryscott3982]

Relevant Games You didn’t stand a chance of getting away with coincidences and math together. It’s good that you like the subject matter.

[@olivetom1599]

Any one can link or explain why this happens ? This blew my mind ....

[@commentforthealgo5383]

that light + black board is so fun to look at.

[@jean-pauljouet3407]

Man I just learned about binomial distribution and the central limit theorem how cool

[@elyazidasri2968]

10:44 That's some quality meme material.

[@InsanePorcupine]

I'm pretty sure he's fully aware at this point and just doing the random stuff to fuel the memes.

[@samuelgonzalez4196]

Call Dolan dark!!

[@ninnus12]

0:09 the one and only

[@infernium1482]

This man just made math look like fun

[@alexanderquilty5705]

I bought this yesterday, this thing is AWESOME.

[@schmittmeister5460]

Hey Michael, vsauce here.

[@mcfetronion3979]

King A I did the exact same jokr

[@mcfetronion3979]

Joke

[@TanguyPass]

...Or am I?

[@100billionsubscriberswithn4]

I came to see Vsauce not see a Konami executive explain Pachinko machines to me

[@scorchedshadow]

Speaking of, Konami just revealed a new Yugioh card based on Kaibas Lotto machine in the Battle City Finals

[@PantsB4Squares]

scorchedshadow yougayho is still made?

[@Rock-ck7ms]

Loved this video! So much to nerd out about!

[@reedplaysgames]

10:30 got me so good I am dead now oooooof
