    Bro, my name's Dereck and around the beginning I was getting distracted and not paying attention so when Michael yelled "Dereck" at 1:12 I freaked out for a second. I thought his superior mind has transcended time and the dimensions of a TH-cam video to tell me to pay attention to his content.

  • @thinkfact
    @thinkfact 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2969

    Interesting fact: The word "normal" comes from the Latin word "normalis." Normalis translates into "carpenter square." When the word first came to English, it meant something that is in a 90° angle. All of this is why the term "Square" is a very common synonym for "normal."
    It wasn't until the late 1800s/early 1900s it got its current definition.
    I hope you all have a good one.

    • @flutee6162
      @flutee6162 3 ปีที่แล้ว +58

      it basically means whoever asks the guard who's going to die in order to reassure himself he is likely not one of the guys to die (because the guard will tell him one of the other guys is chosen to die regardless if the guy who asks is chosen or not), is going to unknowingly increase their chance of being one of the chosen to be killed due to simple mathematic probabilities. In other words, this doesn't make logical sense in any SINGLE scenario you find yourself in; But when accounting for ALL scenarios possible, probability says the guy who you don't know is going to live or die is going to more likely to live than the one who asks the guard in the first place.
      Yeah my brain still doesn't understand, but math does.

    • @paulpena5040
      @paulpena5040 3 ปีที่แล้ว +58

      What's critical to understanding this is getting that the guard CANNOT tell Michael about his fate.
      So let's consider this. Say you are person #1. When the guard tells you person 3 is going to die he is giving you ABSOLUTELY NO INFORMATION. You ALREADY knew 2 out of 3 were going to die so naming someone other than yourself is like saying "the sky is blue", thanks buddy. It's only an illusion that the information is limiting the result set. No useful information has been conveyed.
      But if he COULD tell you about yourself and still said person 3 THEN that's a different story since you've knocked one off and it becomes a coin-flip at that point.
      But he CAN mention person 2 if he wanted to and DIDN"T which gives him a 66% change of him living (33.3% chance for you and the other guy is already dead).
      Let me know if that helped.

    1. Consider the word heterological.

    3. If "no" then heterological must be homological, meaning it describes itself... so in other words "heterological" is heterological? That makes no sense.
    4. If "yes" then heterological must be heterological, meaning it describes something other than itself. Which makes no sense either.

      @jacobnair6707 8 ปีที่แล้ว +143

      Let me try to explain. First of all Jake dying doesn't make your chances worse. It just increases Kevin's chances. The guard HAS to say that Jake dies if Kevin lives, but he can either say that Kevin OR Jake dies if Michael lives. Therefore, there is a 100% chance that the guard says Jake dies if Kevin lives. And there is a 50% chance that the guard says Jake dies if Michael lives. (50% chance of guard saying Kevin dies too) So, its twice as likely that Kevin will be the one who will live when the guard says Jake will die because he was less likely to say Jake will die if Michael was the one who lived.

      I don't know if it will help, but here is another way of thinking about it.
      Say this procedure is repeated day after day, for 300 days with 3 prisoners in cells A B & C, and in an even distribution 100 times the prisoner in A lived, 100 times B and 100 times C. Each day the jailer goes to the prisoner in A and either tells that B dies or tells him that C dies. You can see that A's chances have not changed, he always knew the fate of another, yet he still died on 200 days. Now A died 200 times, and the named prisoner died each of the 300 hundred days, so the un-named prisoner only died on 100 days.
      However, with additional knowledge of the Jailer's psychology as the prisoner in A you may be able to draw a different conclusion. If you know the jailer always says B will die if it is true and only says C will die if he does and B doesn't: then whenever he says C will die it means B lives and you are toast, but if he says B dies your odds actually improve to 1/2. And if you don't know that the jailer always makes this gesture to the prisoner in A or if he only sometimes does, then the question of whether he is more likely to talk to a man doomed to die or one allowed to live can greatly affect your odds.
      anyway, an interesting ponder

    • @danielbaqueiro7245
      @danielbaqueiro7245 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Michael has a 1 in 3 chance of being the one who's selected to live. Since the guard has two options of what to tell Michael if he is selected to live, there's a 1 in 2 chance he says James. The combined chance of Michael being selected to live and the guard telling him that James will die is 1 in 6 (1/2 x 1/3 = 1/6). Kevin's chances of being selected to live are also 1 in 3. The guard only has one option of what to tell Michael. He can only say that James will die. This means that the combined chance of Kevin being selected to die and the guard telling Michael that James will die are still 1 in 3 (1 x 1/3 = 1/3).
      I hope this helps

  • @albertopm96
    @albertopm96 9 ปีที่แล้ว +22

    I have a question related to the 3 prisoners statement. If you consider what the guard says (2:57 and 4:50) and you already know that Jake is going to die (3:09) then why are you still considering the possibility of Jake being the chosen one to live (4:11)?
    Here is the problem, if you already know that Jake is going to die, you can't keep considering to possibility of Jake being the chosen one to life. If you get rid of Jake, then you find yourself in a new situation where there are only 2 guys and one of them is going to die tomorrow, or in other words, You and Kevin have 1/2 possibilities of dying tomorrow.

    • @aeronauticsplays5048
      @aeronauticsplays5048 9 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      At 4:11 he's simply listing all possibilities of what the guard could say for each outcome of the problem; it's not in relation to what the guard already said.
      This problem is extremely similar to the Monty Hall problem, which has been known to be hard to comprehend as deductive reasoning makes it seem obvious that there is an equal 1/2 chance for each of the remaining 2 possibilities, but the variable of the giver of information (the guard in this problem, or the host in the Monty Hall problem) KNOWING the outcome already and giving information based on what they already know and being restricted on what they can actually tell you (they can't tell you who lives or your own fate, and in the case of MH problem, the host can't tell you if you've chosen the correct door and he can't tell you if one of the 2 remaining doors is correct) then the information lets gives you a larger hint as to the outcome of the situation, leaving a 1/3 chance to one outcome and a 2/3 chance to the other.
      This problem is well known for being very hard to understand, so don't get frustrated when you don't get it immediately. the channel Numberphile has a great video explaining the Monty Hall problem, and even Mythbusters touched on the subject of this problem.

    • @aeronauticsplays5048
      @aeronauticsplays5048 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      siffran l Well, basic probability teaches the answer to this problem, but the way the information is presented somewhat disguises the extra information and how to utilize it. Also, at a glance, the answer seems obvious.

    • @LpBrRm
      @LpBrRm 9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      What will happen is already determined from the beginning. What the guard says doesn't change the outcome.
      Imagine you are Mike, the guard can always tell you the name of someone who will die, still leaving you with a 1/3 chance of living and therefore the other person with a 2/3.
      Before you are told anything by the guard, you know that the chance of one of the other 2 surviving is 2/3 because they are 2 people out of 3 in the game, and that will NEVER change, no matter what the guard says because it has already been determined. Then you are told that Jake will die, living Kevin the 2/3 probability of surviving.
      I know it's complicated to understand but if you try it out in real life or do a simulation you will see how it does work this way.

    • @starcrafter13terran
      @starcrafter13terran 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Lope Bravo And what I asked was... if the guard talks to Kevin, he could say the exact same thing... which by your calculation means that kevin now has a 1/3 chance of surviving. Or, 2/3 chance that one of you will survive. It's not the same as monty hall problem, but I am unsure how it's different.

If we could see them, they would be different colors.

Thus the average of legs per human being is less than two.
