Why is 1.618034 So Important?

Imagine if there was a perfect number, a single number so...

flawless it formed the basis for all art and music; a number so important that it could be used across the disciplines of mathematics and physics, and a number so profoundly purposeful that the natural world and the universe would bend to its whims. The Fibonacci Sequence is a string of numbers that begins with zero and one which can be extended infinitely by adding up any two consecutive numbers to find the next in the sequence. The Golden Ratio is a mathematical term used to describe the relationship of two figures, whereby the numbers seem to be in some form of complimentary ratio.To link the Fibonacci Sequence and the Golden Ratio we must look at the ratio between two consecutive numbers in Fibonacci, and observe the pattern this ratio takes as you use ever higher numbers. The Golden Ratio has fascinated the world's most knowledgeable people for millennia since its discovery, and we have seen its influence in some of the finest works mankind has ever produced. Is the Golden Ratio a universal law applied by nature? The evidence seems to suggest so, and the aforementioned Leonardo Da Vinci may have alluded to this in some of his most famous works.

Is it just me or are the spirals randomly placed on the paintings?

[Xerexce]

I'm confused as to why the video became some sort of top 5 list.

[stormenator]

my left testicale hangs lower by golden ratio

[mikeaintnormal]

Everyone calling this a JoJo reference, but NOBODY is talking about how this man says Mozart as Moozart

[Basic_Cat]

Oh my gosh! The Golden Spiral/Rectangle from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure was so popular, they made it in real life!

[Robert-ryxe]

It just looks like you're pasting a spiral over pictures.

gosh, i remember my italian friend who taught me spinning and shooting my nails using this ratio. Unfortunately he passed away at the hands of president while fighting for jesus' corpse.

This subject deserves a better video... Sorry to say that. But phi is a lot more than randomly placed spirals.

[chraman]

You can´t just put a fibonacci spiral onto anything.

"...in a pattern that can be extended past infinity..."

Vsauce: How to count past infinity.

[thenashus]

I'll be honest, most of it seems like you slapped a spiral on top of various images

[mrjack]

Remember the 5 steps Johnny and you ll understand the perfect spin

[psjonesi]

So Fibonacci introduced it to the west in 1202 after learning it from E. Indians who identified it over 1000 years earlier; YET it was employed by the Egyptians to build the pyramids between 2589-2504BC.

Just putting a spiral image over a park doesn't make the park utilize the sequence.

The Super Spin, The Infinite Rotation,

*This is the fifth lesson, Johnny!*

It's always obvious to any full JoJo fan what comments these kinds of videos are gonna have.

[kimberlypreston]

I am confused. It looks like they are just putting that spiral shape on top of things and saying it lines up. I am not even seeing them line up. I can put a strange shape, like a curved line,  over things too and say look at that. wow. I obviously am missing something. Will someone please enlighten me??? I have heard of this before and am still at a loss. Logically something is not clicking in my brain.

[seanwhatstone]

This is the best text to speech I've ever seen

[saulcontrerasOfficial]

If you think this is just spirals being placed on everything:
*It's about the ratio.*

[doornumb]

Why do you even have to watch this?
When you can read the Jojo manga.
