If anyone is still confused about it, the cards were paid actors
-
bet he didn’t predict this would be in our recommendations in 7 years
-
My stupid ass thought that I need to move 5 times when he said "5" 💀
-
I'll see everyone in 8 years when YouTube recommends this too us all again
-
All the ones he chose to remove were the ones I was going to choose next.
-
Okay so apparently I'm so predictable that a random guy knew what I was gonna do 8 years in the future?
-
Well he didn't predict that I'd mess up so as far as Im concerned I won.
-
Whenever I'm about to go to bed, sometimes I'll play this video right before. I don't know why, but it always comforts me and makes me sleepy
-
he only got one of his predictions wrong once, but that’s because i didn’t follow the instructions in an effort to be unpredictable.
-
Hah he did'nt predict that I was not playing this whole time
-
If anyone is curious on why this works, it's to do with even and odd numbers. If you replay the video and try to fail the test, you literally cant, because to get to a place that he will remove, you would need either an even or odd number of turns. if its even, then he will count to an odd number of turns, and if its odd, then he will count to an even number of terms.
-
Bro, I landed on the house the second before he removed it
-
The most annoying thing for me is that I always knew which square he will remove next but I couldn't reach it
-
Everyone saying that he wasn't right Me sweating in predictable
-
At around 01:03, the smiley face flashes in the video for a split second. It might've influenced the decision of millions of people.
-
This isn't about predictability, it's about numbers. Notice he always stops on an odd number. The one he takes away would always require you to take an even number of moves from the one you were on last time he stopped. The symbols are irrelevant. He just boxes you in by removing the ones an even number from the last stop until you only have one option.
-
only 2 left the guy: "move one more time" me: "no."
-
man, I thought I was sooo smart when I just decided to go back and fourth between two spaces the whole game. somehow he still won...
-
this works because the specific square you're on doesn't matter, just its parity if you label all the corner squares and the center square as "odd" and the edge squares as "even", each move you make, you're going from odd to even or even to odd so really, only the number of moves matters if it's an even number of moves, you're on the same parity as you were before, and if it's odd, you're on the opposite parity
-
It’s simple, on any odd move you can’t be on the edge or the centre of the square and on any even move you are forced to be on the edge or the centre.
