00:00 you're looking for an easy way to entertain yourself, then why not try the
00:03 brick balancing challenge? Because everyone has bricks randomly lying
00:07 around, right? YouTuber StandupMaths shows us how to balance seven bricks on
00:11 top of one another, pulling each a little further out than the one before. And if
00:15 you've ever wanted to perfect your Jenga skills, then this is the challenge for
00:18 you. Nat Parker, the brain behind StandupMaths, is both a mathematician and
00:22 a stand-up comedian, so basically he was made for YouTube. He holds the title of
00:26 London Mathematical Society Popular Lecturer, and at the same time has a
00:30 sold-out comedy show at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. See kids, don't let
00:34 mainstream media fool you. You can be smart, funny, and attractive at the same
00:38 time. Matt originally appeared on a YouTube channel called Numberphile, but
00:41 after having neglected his own channel for a bit, it looks like Matt is back on
00:45 StandupMaths. And it seems like he's found a niche because his other video,
00:48 the brick double domino effect, also went viral. So keep on keeping on, Matt. Do
00:52 your thang. Now I need to find my thang, which is talking about your thang. Gonzalo
00:56 comments, "31 bricks to get to an overhang of two bricks. Didn't excel. Seems
01:01 divergent. Not sure I can prove it." Ron Morrow says, "There's no limit to how far
01:04 out the bricks can go from over the surface, so long as at least 50% of the
01:08 mass is over the supported side." Ndankdreams says, "What everyone is
01:11 thinking. Not your typical YouTube comment section." Which is perfect timing
01:14 for a segment I've been wanting to try out.
01:19 Brucey Wayne says, "Hey Shira, sup. Nice necklace." Marcus Flores says, "Honestly, you
01:27 guys are the most horrendous sh*t show I've ever seen." GetTheGuapo says, "This
01:32 chick is annoying AF." And that was...
