You Can't Cut A Deck In Half Without This Happening

math magic

[Vsauce]

P.S. I show a math magic trick that can be preformed using this principle in the longer version that's over on my tiktok (corndogwilly). I could upload the whole thing as two separate videos here on YouTube Shorts ... but aren't part1+part2 videos annoying?

I'll break this by secretly adding four yellow cards into the deck

Vsauce is truly exposing the universe's deepest secrets. Now my outlook on life will never be the same again.

I could prove this wrong...but I don't want to reveal the ace up my sleeve :)

That was the most complicated, entertaining way to explain there are equal amounts of two colors in a deck of cards😂

[ryanfallon]

"Counting cards for beginners"

[TonyB]

That's the quickest I've ever went from "Wait what?" to "Oh yeah duh."

I cant believe that I cant split a deck of cards without getting a personal explanation by Michael

[MrWyzdum]

I love how Michael can make even the most mundane fact seem mystical and surprising.
"If you eat 6 eggs from a dozen, there will also be SIX EGGS LEFT!"

Something that makes complete sense but still feels weird when you first hear it 😂

Me playing Balatro: We'll see how long that lasts.

Vsauce blinked a total of 8 times this video

Me explaining to the Casino owner that I wasn’t cheating and that I just wanted to know if the dealer had 26 black cards

[Hello-lwjm]

Instruction unclear, I ate all the cards.

[YolkySlime]

I confidently said: "No, because if all the black cards were on one pile and all the red cards were on the other they wouldn't be the same"

[OmnipotentNoodle]

This confused me because it made intuitive sense before the explanation, and I thought he was leading up to something bigger 😹

bro really said "Every 60 Seconds in Africa a Minute Passes"

[joshuapetersen]

This is such a simple concept but the way to explain it is just so complicated

[RustyShackleford-eqie]

I cut my deck of cards in half, and now I have 104 smaller cards.
(I accidentally said 52 the first time I put this up. I'm such a dunce.)

This is the most normal Vsauce short I've ever seen
