I don't get why the bimodal distribution still turns into a normal distribution for samples... Anyone?

If the underlying distribution is normal, the sampling distribution is normal for any sample size and doesn't become more normal with increasing sample size as claimed. This only holds if the underlying distribution is not normal. But then, in fact, no distribution in reality is perfectly normal (certainly rabbit sizes are not, as they cannot be negative). Note also that in practice the Central Limit Theorem may fail because of violations of the "identical and independent" assumption and for data quality reasons (for example with outliers).

great video - the only problem is: means, at least for smaller samples, have Student's t distribution an not NV.

Is there a form to know when the sample's mean comes from a nonnormal population?
