One time when I was in grad school a professor told us about a problem (having to do with the equations of polymer adhesion to a surface). He said he didn't know the answer, but if anyone worked it out he'd give us extra credit. After class several of us went over to the library to do a literature search and see if we could find any papers on the topic, and we did find one. Even better, it was in a journal our library had. The excitement rapidly dissipated when we discovered the journal was in French. Everybody else headed back to the chemistry building; I stayed and made a copy of the paper. Later somebody from the class and saw me looking at the copy at my desk and said "I didn't know you could spoke French." I said "I don't, but the important part of the paper is not in French, it's in Math, and I DO speak Math."

The museum, which featured the park as an outdoor exhibit, had been closed for years (keeping science museums running and relevant is notoriously difficult).

There’s also a modular Möbius Loop-inspired sheet metal wall with rock climbing handholds attached on both sides called the Möbius Climber. I know this because, in my last year of elementary school, all the 5th-graders got to gather into groups within our classes and choose one playground item each to try to get approval from faculty to add it to the school playground. I wanted to do the Möbius Climber but my group ended up doing a modular artificial natural-looking stone arch that I didn’t like at all.

I can only assume that if Cliff Stoll ever visited he would explode with excitement

@KarolHaltenberger Месяц назад

Exploding with excitement is what Cliff Stoll does on a bad day. I can't image what would happen to him here. Unless you mean literally explode.😁

@zaraak323i Месяц назад

I was thinking this exact thing!

@adamqazsedc Месяц назад

He would certainly climb the Klein bottle even for his age!

@wtspman Месяц назад

It’s a shame you didn’t take Cliff Stoll along with you. I could imagine him turning inside out with excitement.

@HeiniGurke Месяц назад

I was totally expecting Clifford Stoll to crawl from underneath the klein climb when they got there :D That would have been amazing.

A real Maths Parker. A beautiful story

@Cuestrupaster 28 дней назад

This is what I love about physics and maths... is that doesn't matter what language you talk, it's always the same, and it'll be always the same no matter where you are in the world... or in the universe, is such a perfect and beautiful thing.

@OlegDorbitt Месяц назад

I'm at the start of the video, is Matt actually gonna Nick-Robinson this climbing frame?! He absolutely did it, wow! I wonder how many more RU-vidrs will find an image of something interesting in Japan and just go to it?

@andyhu9542 Месяц назад

@cameron7374 28 дней назад

Cut to the airport, flight to Japan, look at the thing, meet the locals... This is 1:1 a Nick Robinson and I am so happy for this crossover. Truly my favorite genre of RU-vid video.

@BadgerBishop 29 дней назад

The fact that your wife's friend you brought to translate works where the park designer worked is really the best icing on the cake that is this video.

@Huntracony Месяц назад

I really like that mobius design! Also probably better suited for monkey bars than the traditional loop-with-twist shape.

I hope that there are plans to move the structures to a (children's) museum or such after he passes so that the legacy of his mum can continue.

@kinexkid Месяц назад

@@PhotonBeast I can definitely see that happening, especially knowing Matt and his team. They went to Japan just too find this place, they will most certainly go the distance if they were ever at risk of being disposed of

@Silk_WD Месяц назад

On google maps and street view it looks to be a normal residential house. I'm guessing the house where his mother lived. In Japan it's common to tear down the house and build a new one, instead of renovating, so it might be something along those lines. Though that is of course just speculation.

The first can be written as 287179 x 7 x 2 x 2 x 2 (and its companion can be written as 6037 x 13 x 13 x 2 x 2 x 2) so yeah thanks for being a prime spokesman for us all, Matt and keep up the solid work!
