20 Things You Never Knew About DOMINOES! Here are all the facts and links to sources:

1. It would take 2,498,068,320 dominoes with normal spacing, to go around the earth once [calculation]
2. And it would take 1.3 YEARS for those dominoes to fall [calculation using Fact #16]
11. A standard domino is 48mm tall, 24mm wide, and 7.5mm thick
14. On the other hand, a standard domino usually weighs between 8 and 8.5g
15. Which means American domino record, which had a quarter of a million dominoes, used 4,685 pounds (2125kg) worth of dominoes! [calculation]
16. Standard dominoes with lego template spacing fall at 62 dominoes/second which is nearly 1meter/second

I love you and your domino skills Hevesh5!!

THIS IS THE MOST INTERESTING FACT: Hevesh5 is an amazing, charismatic, fun, and interesting Girl that I could listen to for hours. Lilly you have the most zeal for explaining anything. Your dad constantly cracks me up and your voice is priceless! I wish you all the good wishes in your life at school and forever more.. :) big hugs!

Glad I (as a domino fan) knew about some of it. Really interesting :D

I remember watching you years ago, I forgot your channel name, unfortunately but then I saw the YouTube Rewind easter egg and checked out your channel, no regrets.

When you've seen the list of records Guinness came up with, you can only wonder, what's the point of some of these? The weirdest one for me is, The most plates toppled in a domino fashion. Because...how are you supposed to set up plates as dominoes? Seriously I don't know.

Great work on the video Lily!

StickTrickDominoDude

The most interesting part for me was that a domino can topple 1.5x bigger domino than it :) And also I am wondering how many dominoes per second falls if you built them with a maria lamping's template :) :D

You rule, young lady! I would like to know how one might actually build a chain of dominoes around the world without a large number of them "drowning."

MisterG

Awesome. Of course I didnt know the calculated numbers because normaly you never think about them.

i am a domino fan but i never knew about the domino legend .Thanks For Sharing!!!;)

seasa

I like that you used the weight of dominoes in ism as an example

SpriceMachines

All the facts were new for me. So there is no one interesting facts there are all interesting facts for me. Nice concept about dominoes. I think you should make a video on what you want to make a RGM more cooler as a viewer. Nice video Hevesh5.

Thank you for the info Hevesh 5! My favorite was fact 20.

Yes, Lily, beyond the DOMINO art is the physics behind the propagation delay of falling DOMINOS. There is a formula for this (see the paper on propagation delay in falling dominos) but knowing that a standard domino line falls at the rate of 62 dominos / second is pretty cool. Of course, by the formula, this changes with domino weight, spacing, size, etc. To me its not just knocking them down that is intriguing, but knowing What is the Frequency? What is the precise propagation delay ?

keep on building

markh.harris

What are you using for the spacing? If you use 16 mm, which is the Lego template, that's 39, 969.1 km. The meridian circumference of the WGS84 ellipsoid is 40, 007.8 km; the equatorial circumference is 40, 075.1 km. If you run the line over terrain, it's longer (you use horizontal distance, since dominoes stand vertically, just as we do when surveying).

I don't recall how I stumbled across your videos, but I really like them, and have given every one of them a thumbs up like.
Thanks for all the good and interesting facts about dominoes.
1 meter/second is 2.236936 miles per hour.
Watching them fall in a straight line, I have wondered about the speed, and was amazed as one fall line would go back and forth while a large fall was completed.
These domino setups are nothing short of engineering marvels.
Keep up the good work, Hevesh5.
