Thanks for watching! Don't forget to subscribe and, if you enjoyed this video, why not check out another episode in the series? This one looks at whale song and why it spreads through the ocean like pop music: kzbin.info/www/bejne/naC9cmiJob2rY8k

Her voice and accent add so much to this interesting analysis!!!!!!!! 😊

Thank you for sharing the knowledge and educating us. I realized that symmetry is the law of beauty. I will keep an eye on things around me looking for symmetry in them.

A fantastic production for a fantastic scientist.

Soo interesting and almost poetic + loved the music at the back.

[@marc-andrebrunet5386]

I agree 👍

[@royalsociety]

Thanks :)

It's a subject of Fascination for me 😊 I am pretty sure that the Egyptians from 3,000 years ago had similar Fascination as us today..😯 - Geometry is cool stuff for human brain😁👍

Great work :)

Nice video! One thing I was waiting for was the golden ratio (phi approx. 1.618) and the fibonacci series that is represented perhaps as much as pi (approx. 3.14). But again, this was a very nice and harmonic video. Great work!

FINNALY someone who mentioned it! Isn't the number beutiful?

[@physforfun]

@@MuhammedAasil yes, you're right - phi is really beautiful and the structural shape of it in nature is an energy saver like it's more wellknown brother pi 🤓

🙏 our hands can both push and pull on eachother at the sametime. i once had this stange and uncomfortable sensation that my left and right sides of my body were flipped. the midline was on the outsides and my shoulders were touching... it lasted like what seemed 2 seconds but was really jarring and i will never forget. simply paying attention to how one side may differ from the other can be good for balance and balance is good for the brain 🌀 may all things flow in harmony with diligence against the snares of the Fowler

A thing i like about humanity is not only potential but our willingness working together. My young years were tuff from relationships and health because of fear/anxiety of others. I was in ruff shape(straight up seizures and pinched nerves for hours. fear of brain tumors and anything under the sun like sin and love) Trying to understand with stupidity in one hand and faith in the other i was at a loss for words 🙏 than Jesus. I'm so much better now but there are still things that God wants me to find out.

I like this.

Bilateral symmetry, is where visually the human body appears to be copied down the middle. However the internal organs aren't copied down the middle, so why do we have two lungs and two kidneys, but not two hearts and two livers? kzbin.info/www/bejne/fWHZZnuifr5nqc0

Laziness is the law of nature. Symmetry is merely nature being lazy. Humans too prefer symmetry because it reduces creative effort as well as cognitive load. Humans created religious structures and religious art. So those too are symmetric. There-mystery solved.

My left ball hangs lower than the right one.

Irritating music was too distracting.
