Dr. Tadashi Tokieda started off as a painter and moved to France when he was 15. Instead of learning art, he immersed himself in studying linguistics and mastered French. After coming back to Japan, he majored in Greek, Latin, and Hebrew in college. However, after reading a biography of Landau, he felt frustrated that he did not know mathematics very much. So he started studying math using a Russian textbook, and later received a Ph.D at Princeton. Amazing life story!
So, was Poincare wrong then?
Mathematicians aren't made, they're born ~Henri Poincare
But, obviously, it could be that Dr Tadashi is a born genius with an out of the world aptitude?
In Japan, he number one heart surgeon
@@randomdude9135 Obviously he is a born genius, and if he was raised from a young age and put into the university of Tokyo or Kyoto then he probably would have achieved something great in regards to mathematics, like the other Japanese geniuses. Yet it's clear his natural intelligence wasn't fostered the best, evident by him being a mere painter as a teen and I dare say his family were working class etc. Yet he was still able to find things to stimulate his larger intelligence and has still made a name for himself.
The fact that he learned initially from some old Russian books shows that his family were almost certainly working class, I can only imagine what he would have achieved in a different setting.
@@krakenmetzger Darryl gave him a job.
5:55 "I do that one only for money", what a legend.
Savage lol
Impossible
@@PrinceJes clearly you don't have enough money.
@@catdogfishdogcats 🤣👏
@@PrinceJes impossible to pay for the trick.
"You appear to be trying to do a spatial computation. Would you like some help with that?"
Yes, Clippy. Come here. And bring your family!
lololol
+SquareWaveHeaven Lol
Great. :-)
+SquareWaveHeaven That got dark fast.
We are all old.
I swear this guy can read out loud a dictionary and make it sound so interesting.
This was interesting tho.
Katzen4u the interesting factor was multiplied by 1000 times because of the voice
jmiquelmb he does
***** have fun with the amazing world of dictionaries
Lol my dad likes to literally read dictionaries
LOL, "after you have tried version number one and version number two it becomes tempting, indeed irresistible, to try them together." I love his enthusiasm!
He often uses a turn of phrase not quite 'normal' but beautiful.

You guys can't possibly release enough Tadashi videos. He is truly mesmerizing and enlightening.
+SuddenDarkness yes please, that would be gr8
Professor Tadashi is a superb explainer and teacher. LOVING IT :)
+Arfwid great
+Arfwid He truly is a delight! :)
+Arfwid Yes, he's great.
Same here!
Very much so. If only I knew how to contact every maths teacher I ever had in the past, just to get them to see his technique. He seems to love teaching.
I hope Mr. Tadashi never runs out of topics he can talk about!
I love this guy so much He could probably talk about a piece of string for an hour and make it sound interesting.
Ikr! I can see it now! "Now at first you might think, 'well this is just a piece of string.' but if you look closely, you will see that..." And then I'm hooked for somewhere between 13 and graham's number minutes.
+No videos here saying "grahm's number minutes somehow" feels like more of an exaggeration than "infinity minutes"
Leonardo Cisija Infinity is overrated :P
My line of work is far away from the world of mathematics, but given the chance I'd probably sit in on this guy's lectures just for fun, he's that engaging.

These vids are like the polar opposite of clickbaits. The title seems very meh, but the actual content blows your mind.
"Always guess before solving any problem."
Great teaching sense in this guy!
What sorcery is this?
Witchcraft
+Red Herring modern day science and physics might as well be considered magic to the basic modern layman, let alone 1 from pre-1600s
+Matthew Lewis Mathcraft!
+Omegadarkdrake This is much more related to topology than physics
+Red Herring mathemagic
Absolutely LOVE the way Dr. Tokieda chooses his words... "we thought nature should behave in a certain way, and nature obliged."
"and.. this is carved out of a single piece of wood and when I first bought this in Africa I was very impressed to hear that then.. it occured to me that it was the only way to carve something like this of course" AHAHHAA OH MY GOSH HE'S AMAZING :D
"Excellent!" At 16:16 is amazing haha! Sounds like a villain in a movie.
Tadashi is my favourite Numberphile personality
I love the way Tadashi can seemingly show you the same thing over and over yet still keep you on the edge of your seat.
Slomos are like something from the Ring
Scarry :(
Spooky scary rubber bands...
"The rubber band ring"
send shivers down the paper
I want more of Tadashi. I've been showing my young nephew your tricks, and he is astonished by it. He is 4 now, but with these kinds of things, it'll definitely develop his mind to ask the harder questions, WHY! He always does, and I explain in great detail and he understands. He even shows his friends :D
This guy needs to do audio books
+White Razor
Agreed.
??
Professor Tadashi is now my favorite numberphilian.
***** Sure but a numberphilian is a person who is featured on the numberphile channel. ;-)
+spankmeister bonus points
+spankmeister say it aint so
those slowmos will give me nightmares. just sayin. they are filmed like some 1950 russian electroshock experiment
Roman R not to mention the sound
Props to the editor! Great job
And brady you're smart as fuck
Borromean rings, eh? One does not simply link two paper clips together.
Haha, nice!
I love professor Tadashi one of the best Numberphile guests. Fantastic educator. You can tell he really knows his stuff because his explanations are so clear. I also love his accent, perfect English, better than most native speakers, but still with that wonderful Japanese accent. And I don't mean that to be an insult or negative!
+Locut0s
I am crying thinking if only the lecturers I had could explain that well, or were as easy to understand...
NeoHCgbz
Words of wisdom from the uneducated muppet of the new generation...
+Locut0s I agree although I don't think you should have to worry about being offensive when you had a clear, concise point that was obvious not insulting or negative
I now know how I'm going to waste time at work tomorrow.... trying it with three loops....
I loved his laugh when he said "I only do that for money." It was the pinnacle of nerdom!
"Maybe the two rubber bands get linked, although I do that only for money"
Top kek, love Tokieda!
What does it mean? I didnt understand the joke here.
Same
Same
Same
The joke is that it's impossible, so it'd be magic he'd want to be paid for.
I love Professor Tadashi's videos. It's like, I know he's talking about maths, but you have to work to figure out *how* he's talking about maths.
I love the Tadashi videos :D
Tadashi videos are always so fascinating. I love his dry sense of humour. More Tadashi please.
try it with different colored paper clips and rubber band to see how they connect
Every single video with this guy is absolutely amazing, while at the same time spectacularly simple. I love it!
Paper goes in, paper goes out. You can't explain that.
Tadashi is awesome, more videos with him!
I agree, more Tadashi....... please!
“It’s very lucky that I have another rubber band.” 😂
Once the paper clips and the rubber bands have been strategically placed on the manifold they are already attached in a ‘higher dimension’, but only by removing/manipulating the manifold itself you would be able to see their particular order of attachment in 3D. Now, try reversing the process [if you could]. In other words, try to go from the attacked 3D state back to the manifold setup.
This is might be the best video/teaching tool to explain computing that I have ever seen. No previous knowledge of any science is required to understand how our brains learn things and build upon them. Absolutely incredible.
This is, for me, Numberphile's greatest video. It presents the essence of mathematics (which is basically pattern observation) so gracefully and clearly. Plus Tadashi is such an excellent Teacher!
I love Tadashi
I like that profs voice. hypnotizing!
It would have been so epic if the rubber bands became linked
He only does that for money, according to him, haha.
He's right about the guessing thing - the benefit for learning has been demonstrated in many experiments. Learners who are told to guess before seeing the answer retain the answer better (as measured by performance on a delayed test) than those who are told to just wait for it without guessing.
This video made me want to try this now :D
I miss the osu content
This is the coolest ‘’magic trick” I’ve seen😆
The fact that it works isn't so surprising to me - it's the fact that it works so consistently that blows my mind.
I agree.
I wonder, though, how the paper clips would behave if positioned in such a way that the "linking" was less likely to happen.
Definitely not a Parker clip
I love how this guy is so passionate about rubber bands, paper clips, and paper. He just exudes so much passion, enough for me to watch an almost 20 minute video.
Not only Tadashi is a great speaker but Brady did a spectacular job at animating and editing. Really, this channel is superb.
The animations are done by Pete McPartlan though.
Huge respect for Tadashi. love his videos
My guesses were always wrong... Like a Parker Square.
+Daniel Hurtado Did you get them almost right though?
+Daniel Hurtado At least you gave it a go.
I would watch this gentleman explain paper math for hours. Cheers!
Prof. Tadashi is Experimentalist of Mathematicians.
+Chetan Waghela Link theory & magic tricks go together like fire & flames
lol @ 5:55 "well I do that only for money", I feel like that joke was greatly under appreciated.
Really interesting. I love Prof Tadashi's videos.
I never thought I could be entertained so much by only paper, 2 rubber bands, and 2 paper clips.
Professor Tadashi has the most fascinating videos on this channel, which is saying something given how fascinating the rest of the channel can be!
The one liner about the links being carved from a single piece of wood had me dying. That troll grin is legendary.
How can anyone not like this video?
Mr Tokieda is always a delight to watch, thanks for awesome videos as always!
Wow, transparent paper! Where can I get that?
Oh, wait...
this is topology right?
also foot guy is back!
yep!
+Abdul Muhaimin YUP 10 points! As in Universal Quantum Computing consisting of: Gate Flow, Adiabatic, TOPOLOGICAL, and Measurement Based Quantum Computing. Measurement Based is almost the same as Topology but in 2 dimensions.
Pietje Puk I have no idea what is all of that but im just gonna go with it.
Wow thanks for telling me all of this!
Abdul Muhaimin no worries mate. I just wanted to show off my big brain, my bad. :)
+Pietje Puk Doesn't this also cover combinatorics?
Numberphile videos with Prof. Tokieda are always such a delight, just fascinating. Just read the wikipedia article about him, this guy is unbelievable, started out as a painter, then went on as philologist before even getting seriously involved in the field of maths, furthermore he is fluid in about six languages. this man is a genius, a beautiful mind.
This guy is my favorite. He is Brady’s greatest gift to the internet.
It's a kind of magic... thanks for this video. You and Prof. Tadashi are great!
The animation quality is godly! damn spot on!
First the cup chiming video, now paperclips. This man sits at his desk playing mathematically with various objects
I just taught a beginning Magic class at the University of Texas last Saturday, including this basic trick, and one of my students started experimenting and came up with some of these other versions on his own. Thank you for the very clear explanations!
The animations are very nicely done!
I love this guy
A really lovely mix of live action, animation and super slomo. All with the mellifluous sound track of Mr Tokieda's voice. A very excellent video indeed. Well done Brady.
I think this has to be one of my favourite numberphile episodes
If I had tried that it would have caught on fire
Being able to make fire with some paper and a few paperclips might be handy, come the zombie apocalypse. ;-)
Fabulous production on this video too
The animation in this video is both very well done and very helpful. It enhances the experience incredibly, nice job!
I love the way Tadashi speaks... calm and concise... Sometimes I catch myself thinking using his voice...
PART 2 IS COMING OUT FCK YES!!
This is one of the most hard to visualise things .... And yet, intuitive!
Another amazing Tadashi video. Well done.
I could literally watch this for hours, the way he shows us things and explains it is so engaging!
Pretty cool and excellent animations, again!
I still remember my grandfather teaching me the original version ("version 0") of this trick some 55 years ago. I guess that was just a short time after Bill Bowman introduced it.
Love the segments with Tadashi Tokieda. Simple, yet so enjoyable.
I love the animations on these Tadashi videos!
So interesting! More of these videos thanks! :)
Every time he said *of course* I felt stupid.
Mr. Tokieda is totally awesome! Can't wait for part 2 of this video!
Love these videos by Tadashi Tokieda - more please!
Now i can start my magic show :D
I wanted to know what happens when the rubber band is on the middle section of the paper!
Best video on numberphile, I can listen to Mr. Tadashi all day long.
I've spent too much time in the past visualising what was happening to the clips. Well done for filming it in slow motion!
I need part 2 now!
Great video. Thank you for posting. Subscribed
Tadashi's videos are always my favorite!
I love this video! I love this channel!
There is a mistake in animation at 11:31 - each paper clip should be connected to one rubber.
Yeah, probably. It's hard to see
Why is it so intuitive?!
That's so weird!!
The animation on this series is pure genius!
I saw Tadashi in the preview and I knew I was going to like this. I was not disappointed. Thanks guys.
