What do Mathematicians Eat for Breakfast?

A compilation of Numberphile sound checks - Brady typically asks "what did you have for breakfast" so he can monitor audio levels.

[degaculo]

Finally I can understand a video from this channel

[linforcer]

I feel like no matter what you ask John Conway he'll come up with an answer that ends in "but I don't really care about it."

[tanukigalpa]

It's incredible how invested I am in these mathematicians' breakfasts.

[thekkl]

John Conway even manages to sound melancholic about his breakfast.

[Hyo]

-"Ahh, I did some maths for breakfast."

Love it

[TheEduardo]

John Conway looks like he's reminiscing all his life while talking about that coffee.

[bootblacking]

I eat a Mandelbrot set for breakfast every morning, but I can never seem to finish it.

[disaidra]

Bouncy James at 2:42 was the best XD he didn't even say what he had for breakfast there but by the looks of it he just had a bowl of pure sugar.

"Breakfast? What's that? I just got out of bed".... My hero... <3

[michaelholland]

John Conway had the toughest breakfast.. "I had samon which I fished out of the lake with my teeth"

[LillianWinterAnimations]

James Grimes had a whole pot of coffee I guess :P

[rngwrldngnr]

The best thing about this video was the reminders of all the different videos I'd seen here before. Along with noticing a few mathematicians I had missed out on. Very fun.

I sleep too late, so I wake up during lunch time! hehe My breakfast then is rice, beans, beef and fried potatoes. Ok, I know this is not healthy, but this is what I can do.

I noticed a few commonalities that most of these mathematicians shared:

1. Oatmeal/Porridge/Cream of Wheat/Cereal
2. Bananas
3. Misc. Fruit
4. Nothing/Coffee

Outliers:

1. Bacon
2. Panini
3. Toast
4. Yogurt

[tomasfernandez]

Why not 3?
Because then i would have ended up with an odd number..

[mapledoctor]

James Grime: "I had a bacon panini apparently"

Were they being told what they 'had for breakfast'?

[mastershooter]

ah yes james grime the only man who can eat "hello hello hey hey hey hey" for breakfast

[lasercatvet]

I am excited about the new faces I saw in these sound checks.  Hope that means plenty of numberphile to come in the future!

[Pianoguy]

Matt parker is so hillarious !

Seems to be a common theme though of banana and cereals

[dirmilj]

To conclude: just your average person, mathematicians are addicted to carbs and caffeine.
