Wearing armour is a lot easier than carrying it NGL. I've done it before. A mate and I also got in trouble on our way to a HEMA display. Our bus knocked so we had an hour to wait. As foolish young 17 year olds we both were wearing armour and had our long swords on us. We decided to have a sword fight in the street for a laugh. A copper pulled over, looked a little scared, and asked us to put our swords on the floor. We did, he got out and had a discussion with us. We ended up having to get our mates mum to pick us up as it was the only way we were allowed to keep our kit. We got bollocked but we managed to keep it as a slap on the wrist 😂😂

Not sure there. You'd be surprised how hard it is to find a world class host, somebody who knows how to deliver just the right amount of fun and humour while giving the stage to the guests. I'm not always a fan of Jimmy Carrs standups but he's amazing hosting 8 out of 10 cats and Catsdown. If you look at the UK TV scene on a whole, it's always the same 12-15 people who host panel shows and game shows and that's for good reason. And David Mitchell is a national treasure!

[@avysark2034]

Someone explain the logic behind David's calculations please because I can't see it. How is Lee wrong with 2/3+1/3= full tree length? David takes 2/3, of which he says that they're actually 3/4 and then somehow 1/2 is missing - what?! Is there something about Lee's wording that David is abusing which I don't get?

[@bf3sniper101]

David's response of 3/4 is actually incorrect. But what he's doing is being very specific about what Lee said. If the guy was 2/3 up the tree then adding 1/3 of that amount (2/3) is actually 2/3+2/9 which is 8/9 of the way up the tree. Then David says how high he was plus half so 2/3 plus half of 2/3 which is 1/3 which would then equal 2/3+1/3= 1 Whole tree. Lee meant how high he was plus A THIRD as in plus 1/3 not 1/3 of the distance he was already up the tree but David being sharp made a quick typical David joke out of it. Hope this wasn't too complicated 😂 I tried my best

Can anyone explain the maths regarding how high lee was in the tree

[@munky342]

The guy was 2 thirds up the tree. Lee says the height of the tree is "plus a third", which sounds right, but that maths only works if you're taking the entire height of the tree into account. So there are 2 thirds of the whole below him, meaning that half of that is 1 third of the whole. A third of the tree below him would account for 1 quarter of the whole. So what Lee said would mean the guy would be 3/4 of the way up. It's basically just the semantics of using the word "plus".

Guys ! I still don't get David's comment about the 2/3 up + 1/3 3/4, a half Like wtf is going on. Lee's comment sounded logical to me. Is my brain not braining ?!

[@user-ox9ep9ki6h]

Lee says he was 2/3s up the tree. Then he tells how tall the tree was, 2/3s plus 1/3 (of that). Let's assume the tree is 9 meters tall. The guy is 2/3s up, so that'll be 6 meters up. Now, that doesn't fit with Lee's second statement. If the guy is 2/3s up the tree, that's still 6 meters BUT Lee says "Plus 1/3". 1/3 of 6 meters is 2 meters this the tree would have to be 8 meters tall. David is a very logically thinking person so he immediately catches that. David is talking about 3/4s. Let's assume the tree is 12 meters tall. If he is 3/4s up the tree, he's at 9 meters. Adding a 1/3 of THAT height (3 meters) would give us the correct measure of 12 meters for the tree. So yeah, David is spot on.

[@chrisrowles18]

Can anyone explain the tree thing?

[@chriswade9616]

Which part specifically?

[@nicosmind3]

Trees are plants that grow on Earth and often to huge sizes

[@pushthetempo2]

​@@nicosmind3Cheers it was touch and go there for a minute

[@twowheellatte]

First Lee says the skydiver 'was about 2/3rds of the way up the tree'. Let's just say 2/3rds. And then that 'the height of the tree was how high he was plus a third'. By 'a third' Lee refers to the total height of the tree: 2/3x (of the total height) + 1/3x (of the total height) = x (the total height). However, David thinks that 'plus a third' should refer to the 2/3rds mentioned earlier, not to the total height. David is correct in the sense that we can't use the total height as the basis of calculations, because at this point it is unknown, so the correct way is to say 'how high he was (2/3rds) plus a half' (of the 2/3rds). So, we should take the known 2/3rds and add a half of 2/3rds. The result is essentially the same: 2/3 + 1/3. TLDR: Lee means 1/3 of the total height of the tree and David means 1/2 of how high the skydiver was, but it comes to the same result.

I still don’t understand that tree maths of David. Someone explain!

[@ChrisNicholson-hk6su]

If he is 2/3 the way up then half of where he is, is 1/3 so the height of the tree is where he is plus the half ( which is 1/3)

[@ChrisNicholson-hk6su]

@charliebosher9806 ok I will try again .... imagine the tree is only 6 feet .... he's 2/3 the way up the tree that means he is 4 feet up the tree .... so the height of the tree is where he is (4feet) plus another half (2 feet)

You're applying the logic wrong. Lee said he was 2/3 of the tree up. So below him was 2/3 of the tree and above him was 1/3. This means that above him was half of what was below him. The math is 2/3 + 1/2*2/3=2/3 + 1/3=1
