Mind F*ck Paradoxes That Will Keep You Up At Night

damn these paradoxes are crazy

[marian]

I would say, 4 grains of sand can create the smallest heap possible. 3 grains in triangle constellation, touching each other, the fourth one at the top.

For the Rick Astley paradox, he could just watch it with you. He’s not giving it to you, but he’s also not letting you down because you still get to watch it

I always found the Ship of Theseus fascinating, as it seems nobody can agree on it.

[MusicByRón]

A paradox disappears when subtle details are discovered.

Orange as a fruit came first. Prior to being called orange, the color used to simply be referred to as “yellow-red” or “geoluhread” in Old English.

The resolution to The Hangman's Paradox is that whenever you predict that you will be surprised, and the surprising event happens, you will not be surprised because you predicted that it would happen. Conversely, when you predict that you will not be surprised, and the surprising event happens, you will be surprised because you were predicting that you would not be surprised. So therefore, in predicting that you will not be surprised by the day of the hanging, you set yourself up to be surprised when it actually occurs.

13:37 häh that paradox has such a simple solution. He makes a rock that he cant lift. And after he tried, he gave himself the power to lift the rock.

That last one is a logical fallacy. It's like asking for a married bachelor, a square circle or the smell of blue. What is really being asking is for an infinite being to prove he is finite. It's logically incoherent.

A hot dog is a taco. Like a hard shell taco, the bread is connected at the bottom, therefore a hot dog is a taco.

[wilhelmschmidt]

1:00 Depends on how it's sorted. A thin layer or line of sand grains isn't a heap. 4 grains stacked could be a small heap. I think that's the more definitive quality rather than sheer quantity, but that's just my conception of what "heap" represents. Language is fun!

Did anyone see the Subscribe button light up when he says to subscribe 1:37

[holasoyalejandro]

10:12 he lets you watch it in his house. problem solved

[brandonrodriguez]

Not gonna lie the hang man one makes no sense because it’s still a surprise

[JRod_]

Up isn't capitalized in the song so he can give u "Up" but not "up".

[supercalifragilisticexpial]

When you asked the question about free will I want even paying attention and playing with my hair. My thought process was to twist my hair in one direction.

[goldenbroom]

A hotdog is enclosed by three sides and therefore a taco

[rebeccababb]

Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?

[Shmilton]

12:15 bro just explained gojo’s infinity

[Batchak]

For the final omnipotence riddle

The God can create the rock, be unable to lift it, and then make himself strong enough to lift it, reclaiming his ability in omnipotence

When it comes to the teleportation paradox, I feel like it’s a non-issue when every 10 years your entire body is made up of entirely new cells anyways. Same with ship of Theseus, I mean you are not the same cells as you were 10 years ago but you’re still you despite everything being replaced. If anything the teleportation is still the same you since it’s using the same exact atoms, which is likely not happening as you shed and replace cells.
