This video isn't in real time. I have no doubt that there was a decent amount of time that it took to figure out how to build the curve. They probably had some curves that failed and they improved upon them to get the ending results.
6:13 I'm studying physics for university entrance exams, and I casually re watched this video only remembering the brachistocrone curve, and when I saw that I just realized that this is Snell's law right before he said it I'm f*king proud of myself right now

There was a few segues of Michael voguing to non-copyrighted house music which was unarguably the best part of the show. Worth the $25 but pretty disorienting. Had to go to the bathroom halfway through to make sure I wasn’t having an LSD flashback.
It's obviously because straight line isn't the shortest time to reach the end point. He was looking exactly the way so that the light from his dream coming true reached his eyes in the shortest time possible.
It definitely looks like that, but what he is really doing is staring down the finish line so he can make his best judgment of which piece hit the end first.
9:05 is so wholesome “I got some protractors there” “Oh oooh” “You’ve got a compass extension” “I’ve got all sorts of things” “I feel so guilty this is a dream of mine come true”
This is fun. I recall studying cycloids in college, and proving they were fastest with calculus. We also performed experiments in physics lab where we used gravity's acceleration to observe them. We even ventured into the topic of rotational inertia.

Adam is so impressive Michael explained his thing and he immediately knew what to do, he started planning and building, and what do you know, it worked
you are one of many people on youtube who think videos arent planned, choreographed, editted and THEN posted. you really think this dude walked up to adam without planning and went: he.... lets build something and record it.
I find myself coming back to this video. I love how it starts out with Michael completely in charge, introducing the topic, then you can see the wheels start to turn in Adam's head, he figures it out, and then he takes over. And then Michael takes control back over to take things to the next level. Their skills compliment each other so well

no. light does not obey his law. his law defines characteristics of light. laws can be changed, but forces of nature are constant. of he changes his law to say " light slows down at red lights and does not like cheese", light does not obey. his law just becomes an unproven theory and Einstein beats him up for his lunch money on the playground. lol

Actually at Blue Bayou in Louisiana, they have a water slide that is shaped like the curve. It's wild that I realized that after years of going there. It has three rows with sleds that you sit on, and it's curved to allow you to skid across a shallow pool. Really cool stuff!
It is the one you get the most speed in average. The extreme curve would give you the maximum speed, and the maximum slow down too, I guess the most sensations as a water slide. The straight line is, as said, the most boring of the 3.
But wouldn't you need people of the same general weight (>5kg difference) for the acceleration to balance the distance out like the discs in the video?
FUN FACT: The brachistochrone curve also works in reverse too! To reach orbit rockets must follow the fastest path to space before their fuel runs out. Rockets launch vertically to get above the atmosphere but then pitch down to fly horizontally above the earth’s surface. How do they know when to start pitching and at what rate? The Brachistochrone! 🚀
great..can you link any video related to it and it impresses me that how maths formulas are greatly beneficial and applied in a larger way and it works as we think in perfection!
I work at the factory that makes the acrylic that you used (I can tell by the printing on a some of the paper). To answer your question on how it is applied. The acrylic is produced in one long sheet. During production, after the acrylic has had time to cool and harden, it is sandwiched by two large rubber cylinder rolls. The acrylic is still one long sheet at this point. Rolls of paper are unrolled into the pinch point of these rollers against the acrylic. The paper does have an adhesive already applied to one side by the paper manufacturer that is specific to a particular substrate, such as acrylic or other polymers. Brakes on the axle of the rolls of paper are used to ensure that the paper is taught going into the pinch point so that it will lay down smoothly. After the paper has been applied, saws cut the paper masked acrylic to customer ordered sizes. If you ever need something special made from plastic hit me up. We can do all sorts of cool things.
Alek Pyers I think Michale should like 'heart like' this so everyone can reed it (not only those who scroll for 15 minutes) because it is an answer to a question that have been asked in the video
2 is often forgotten. I'm not a big 3 man, myself (I'd take 2 over 3). But I think most would agree that plain, old Vsauce is the biggest standout of the group. Still, all great channels.
21:00 Simply seeing 3 objects at different starting points reaching the exact same conclusion with the exact amount of time blows my mind. I’m sure this proves something such as time moving toward a singular conclusion no matter what, or our own actions appearing to be free will despite the illusion. The most amazing truths of the universe are the simplest of rules; the red-light/green-light of rules makes profound conclusions when gazed through the correct lens.

How many hours of binge watching is enough
Spoiler alert, even infinite isnt enough

How many just saw the veritasium video and thought " THAT'S THE BRACHISTOCHRONE" and came running here
if we made a line if people around the planet, a lot of people would drown

1:34 When the music stars you know shit is getting real...
I know it is. I`ve been watching Michaels videos for a while now.
Hey everyone! I'm doing a special event where I will be subscribing to the first 50 people who subscribe to me! I'm watching the list but also comment and let me know! Come get your free subscriber :D
it is always when he is asking a question the music starts =)
I guess the music is a star now.
But what if you traced a point on the circle's circumference while it was traveling on a Brachistochrone?
On All Twos That is known, as a brochippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
Hamza Aman Why ia it a phobia?
Violeta Zaķe Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the name for the fear of long words
Jace Salinas He was asking for a circles point while it was traveling on a Brachiwtochrome, not the fear of long words
He combined the word for the fear of big words and brachistochrone to make that word, which is why it's a phobia
"Adam...do you have a favorite polygon?" Is the most Vsauce thing I've ever heard, and it warms my heart ♡
Man I wish I had a law named after me, cuz some guy named Snell has LIGHT obeying his law. Who else can say light always obeys their law?
Get smart then
MuffMuncher69blazeIt you can't just "get smart"
no. light does not obey his law. his law defines characteristics of light.
laws can be changed, but forces of nature are constant. of he changes his law to say " light slows down at red lights and does not like cheese", light does not obey. his law just becomes an unproven theory and Einstein beats him up for his lunch money on the playground. lol

Thanks for explaining the joke.
people like adam savage who can make almost anything from scratch amaze me

avox. too bad he's a liberal
avox. and with such a simple design, I don't think it could be made any simpler.

In a brachistochrone race, everyone is a winner.
Chris Vise that means its *OUR* brachistochrone race *COMRADE*
It’s a win-win race for sure

In a progressive brachistochrone race test, everyone wins because everyone is special
but in a brachistochrone race war, no one is ...
That side-eye from Michael during the slow-mo scene is hilarious.
18:04 is the timestamp of the scene.
23:41 why is Michael staring into our souls?
Why isn’t he?
brAINDEADRETARD69 what a profile and name
Or is he?
It's like funny as hell hahaha :D
@brAINDEADRETARD69 ...”sorry, i was aggressively masturbating.”
I'd like math only if Micheal was my teacher.
The Happy Cat Well you would only have class like once every two months lol
I mean, if you're here watching this, Michael IS your math teacher.
The Happy Cat I wouldn't. I feel itchy all over looking at that sweater. Not to mention I feel hot just looking at it. There are just a very, very tiny portion of men that can pull off a sweater and he is not one of them.
it is maths
Katie Kat stfu
People forget that Michael's first channel was called "Pooplicker888". What a hero
glonik10 best name
HAHA whatthefk so cool
glonik10 he is my hero 😍😍😍
On the Key of Awesome channel he worked as the Bearded Nun
almost every time someone writes my first name they spell it like that
I love how frantically and excited Adam works.

here's the story
about a little guy that lives in a gay world
This Brachistochrone should be a water slide
this would be awesome 3 of them all the same curve but from different starting points like in the video oh this is a good idea
Actually at Blue Bayou in Louisiana, they have a water slide that is shaped like the curve. It's wild that I realized that after years of going there. It has three rows with sleds that you sit on, and it's curved to allow you to skid across a shallow pool. Really cool stuff!
It is the one you get the most speed in average. The extreme curve would give you the maximum speed, and the maximum slow down too, I guess the most sensations as a water slide. The straight line is, as said, the most boring of the 3.
But wouldn't you need people of the same general weight (>5kg difference) for the acceleration to balance the distance out like the discs in the video?
Rob Dapedo acceleration is independent of weight. Although size would matter because of differences in friction
FUN FACT: The brachistochrone curve also works in reverse too! To reach orbit rockets must follow the fastest path to space before their fuel runs out.
Rockets launch vertically to get above the atmosphere but then pitch down to fly horizontally above the earth’s surface. How do they know when to start pitching and at what rate? The Brachistochrone! 🚀
great..can you link any video related to it
and it impresses me that how maths formulas are greatly beneficial and applied in a larger way and it works as we think in perfection!
Well, he’s done it. Vsauce has officially made a 20+ minute video on rolling circles
MangoTube, with 6 mil views......
You mean rolling circools?
if everyone on earth held hands around the earth, a Significant amount of them would drown
I thought they'd actually be in space? So they'd all suffocate then...
Josiah Jackson fair point
They'd also look hella gay
Josiah Jackson I was thinking about that. Lmao
78.7 percent of them, at least.
Vsauce: That's not just a circle
Me: no...

I absolutely love how excited Adam gets about this idea
I work at the factory that makes the acrylic that you used (I can tell by the printing on a some of the paper). To answer your question on how it is applied. The acrylic is produced in one long sheet. During production, after the acrylic has had time to cool and harden, it is sandwiched by two large rubber cylinder rolls. The acrylic is still one long sheet at this point. Rolls of paper are unrolled into the pinch point of these rollers against the acrylic. The paper does have an adhesive already applied to one side by the paper manufacturer that is specific to a particular substrate, such as acrylic or other polymers. Brakes on the axle of the rolls of paper are used to ensure that the paper is taught going into the pinch point so that it will lay down smoothly. After the paper has been applied, saws cut the paper masked acrylic to customer ordered sizes.
If you ever need something special made from plastic hit me up. We can do all sorts of cool things.
Alek Pyers YOU GO UP!
Alek Pyers Next, on How It's Made
Alek Pyers I think Michale should like 'heart like' this so everyone can reed it (not only those who scroll for 15 minutes) because it is an answer to a question that have been asked in the video
Thanks everyone.
***** Yes. Yes we do.

Good morning....but at what cost?

4:02: "Here's a square, say this is a square"
Hmm yes the floor here is made out of floor.
He means a perfect square, the “square” he was using was a little bit more of a rectangle
This is a tree. You can tell by the way it is
10 secs before "this thing is a thing"
No its quite clearly a tyrannosaurus rex.
it wasnt a perfect square this is y
Vsauce: causes an existential crisis
Vsauce2: like regular science channel
Vsauce3: makes you question things around you
Carlminion I had no idea Vsauce 2 existsed.
Justin Brantley Wait you knew about Vsauce 3 though?
2 is often forgotten. I'm not a big 3 man, myself (I'd take 2 over 3). But I think most would agree that plain, old Vsauce is the biggest standout of the group. Still, all great channels.
Carlminion 1>3>2. Just my opinion. Jake 's videos are visually the most interesting.
Aditya Patel If you like Jake the most, you did that wrong.
10:57 I used the circle to make the circle
Perfectly balanced just like everything should be
It is inevitable
21:00 Simply seeing 3 objects at different starting points reaching the exact same conclusion with the exact amount of time blows my mind. I’m sure this proves something such as time moving toward a singular conclusion no matter what, or our own actions appearing to be free will despite the illusion. The most amazing truths of the universe are the simplest of rules; the red-light/green-light of rules makes profound conclusions when gazed through the correct lens.
Adam kinda looks like Adam from Mythbusters.
Commander Shepard Yeah, he is.
Commander Shepard You are a true genius aswell as being a hero.
And the other guy looks like Michael from dong
