*The creepy Vsauce silence*
OMGNO A JUMPSCARE
The largest known prime number,
contains twenty-two million three hundred and thirty-eight thousand six hundred and eighteen digits.
(22338618)
you can view all of them, thanks to the internet.
Mmm.  That's a prime D.O.N.G.
Something you can do online now, guys.
Do you hear that? It's the heartbeat of a blue whale, which only beats about 6 times per minute.
This page accurately displays the heartbeats of 15 different animals.
You've got dogs at 90 BPM,
You have humans around 72.
Ohhh, but look at those hamsters. Four hundred and fifty, *chuckle*
Now that your heart is beating with the ferocity of a duck,
Use that to play the Knife Game.
An online, but safe version of the stunt that we've all seen before.
Now, I've never tried it in real life, but I assume it's just as stressful.
You have to click at exactly the right to stab between the fingers.
Oh, look. Okay, the first one was easy.
And, ooh. Ugh. Sorry dude.
Unfortunately, after you chop one finger off, well you lose the whole game which is a little over dramatic.
I mean, there's still more fingers left, but.
You can keep trying over and over again, and when you get your score, hopefully higher than 0,
You can proudly write your name so that everyone knows who it was.
Since you're a pro at separating hands and fingers, check out Degrees of Separation.
This experiment can connect two seemingly unrelated works of art by visual similarities that a computer vision algorithm finds.
Your job is to select two pieces of art.
You can do this by choosing from a random compilation, or an artist, like Van Gogh.
Now what's interesting here is that the algorithm finds these two paintings so visually similar,
that there doesn't need to even be a connection between them. They are each others link.
I guess I'll try to find even more different ones, um.
Oh, there you go.
Now make your own art by using phancer.com, which allows you to turn smartphone photos into DSLR quality photos.
These are the five people behind this research, and if you scroll down, you can learn about the algorithm.
Color loss, content loss, texture loss.
Now, go Google "photos taken from a smartphone", and upload them here.
You'll be able to see what they'd look like if taken with a DSLR camera.
Now since we're on the topic of pictures, look at this one.
I want to send this to a friend, but I only want them to see it once.
Luckily, there is this site, which is kind of like Snapchat, but on a computer, and with way fewer features.
Upload, or drag your image here, and a URL will be generated.
You can give to whoever you want, and when they get it, only they, with the link will be able to open it.
But, once they leave the page, the image will be deleted forever.
I mean, unless they like, took a screenshot or something.
Tower Tiny Square. This website includes a big tower, and a tiny, itsy-bitsy square.
But that's not all.
There are many layers and obstacles and other things to overcome.
The goal is to climb up the tower, and this is you.
It looks daunting, but there are things to help you along the way.
For example, you can use this trampoline to jump over boiling pits of lava.
You can climb up walls by jumping repeatedly with your space bar.
And, it's kinda cool, because when you get out of the water,
you can almost feel yourself get lighter.
Well, your square.
I didn't get to the top, but if you're curious
how long it takes, go for it.
Then continue to feed your curiosity with Access Mars.
This site allows you to explore a 3D replica of the Martian surface.
We explored Curiosity in a portion of Mars called Pahrump Hills before,
but this one focuses on more areas.
You'll be guided through interesting topics
Katie Stack Morgan, a planetary geologist
on the Mars Science Laboratory Mission.
You can select regions on the map to get to places quicker.
Now come back to earth and get the freshest produce you can with seasonalfoodguide.org
Select produce and a region to see the months of the year that it's in season.
Let's check out, um, apples in California.
Sweet, their good right now.
But I only have until the end of December to eat as many apples as I can
until I can start over again in August 2018.
Alright, how about beets?
Oh, nice, no rush on those because their always good to go around here.
Now, you can also learn how to cook them.
But before this episode comes to an end, here's something I've always wanted to do.
[fire alarm sound]
Run!
Finally a big thanks to our sponsor: brilliant.org
Our missions couldn't be more similar.
Their website is full of challenging courses
you can take that full of problems that make you think like a mathematician, a statistician, a physicist.
Right now, I am in love with the Games of Chance one because, well
I don't want to be random, I want to be ran-smart.
They have many fascinating courses that have very fascinating challenges.
Are you up for them?
If so, check out brilliant.org/dong
Thanks for the support, and as always
