Sorry I was late.

Spock was always my favorite Star Wars character

Dude said Star Wars 😂😂😂😂

I don't think I ever saw a mirror in Star-wars Saga. Like for real. Not even in a single clip.

Busy lying to some other idler

Everyone is so camera-brained now. They forget mirrors *aren’t* the same thing as your front camera

Pretty short comment considering you could go on forever.

It's only dumb to people who already get it. I remember being young and playing with mirrors, and being mystified. I love that kids have these videos now!

@@MarkAhlquist I think I'd be totally fine with that if the people oblivious to this simple fact were children, but seeing that they are grown adults, you can't blame the person above calling them dumb. It's nice that they are curious, but when you post something like this on the internet, you have to expect to be called dumb by some people. Also, the people in the video acted like it was some kind of magic or something, while an average person their age would at least try to think about why things are that way.

@BlackboardIdeas You're not wrong. ( I'm older, they look like kids to me.) I'm all for cutting u.s. defense budget and spending it on education instead, but u.s. is run by a handful of sociopathic billionaires so, oh well.

@@vit.budina Yeah, the fact it was adults asking it, just makes it go from "Child mystified by mirror" to "Grown adult doesn't understand mirrors"

"Technical Error" (aka "The Reversed Man") by Arthur C. Clarke is an earlier story (1950) with a person flipped via the 4th dimension.

sounds great but isnt it strange we all think mirrors flip the image ???? They dont .They only reflect back exactly what we show them .

​@@rippedtorn2310 That's just semantics. You can say that it does and it doesn't.

Ah! Ana and kata, the other two directions! I used to love William Sleator's books!

I would be worried about being flipped inside out, which is a valid rotation in the 4th dimension

It’s genius!

Yup, that's unexpected.

Some D-amino acids are toxic or trigger an immune response or anaphylactic shock because they are present in bacteria.

That time our body will be so that it will accept those mirror images biomolecules only.

And to introduce me to my newest phobia. 🤦‍♂️

I thought this whole thing was an April fools thing but no people actually didn’t pay attention in school or even research things on their own time

Thank goodness. My forehead crunched up painfully when I realized what was boggling those poor ladies.

​​@@Bro-vs5mk My guess is that most are faking it for views, or at least l hope so.

A view into the current state of intelligence and education sadly...

@@CHRodz I believe light and refraction was covered in 6-7th grade. However, with no education this should be pretty simple. What they teaching them kids in the US? Spend 3-4 times more than the European average on education...and people freaked out by mirrors.

But he did subtly call them fat, and say they needed Factor. lol

whilst this is true, i am pretty sure most people still didn't get it

​@@carlkenner4581 i skipped the sponsor segment but went to watch it after reading this.

Butt can our mirrored selves digest thisinformation🤔🤔

Can't explain why gum is $6

this answer needs to be more complex

I agree, the answer could have been presented in a different and simpler way.

Yes. Our eyes see what the light bounces on and that case the mirror. We see in 3D so leaning forward we see the rest of the space in that case the reflection.

​@@frenchjamdawgnot really If u can't explain something in a way a 6 year old would understand then U really don't fully understand it your self.

the fact you need this explained at all is embarrasing @@MindlessTube

Of course it can be digested. It will be broken down to its constituent amino acids eventually. (In the case of aspartame).

In the case of those that are digested, I don't think chirality is the issue. Xylitol isn't even chiral, IS metabolized, and can cause the same sort of GI distress.

The mirror image version of our cells should be able to process mirror image version of the proteins no? The receptors etc in the cells are all mirror imaged and should be able to connect with the mirror image version of the proteins and other food molecules... So the mirror image version of you will survive. But the real you will die of the shits.

​@bsadewitz I remember using DL Phenylalanine supplements back in the 80’s.... two versions in one pill. Perhaps at least some of the mirror world molecules would behave similarly, having slightly different effects than our food if digestible at all.

@@casadelosperrosstudio200mirror world would be the same because e everything is mirrored (?)

and that's why they mess with our bodies regulatory systems and subsequently can trigger unusual reactions that seem out of the blue - it's just our systems being confused and regulating incorrectly. Wow, that really sounds like type 2 diabetes and they weren't even eating sugar.

I mean, it shows the level of intelligence of those kids, and also the state of science education in the US.

I was like, yo just imagine the light rays, they are simple with mirrors that are flat too

@@bigsmall246 they believe the mirror is sentient or what?? wouldnt it be terrifying if the object didnt show behind the paper sheet?

Yeah I need a little nap after that

Same I was wondering if it showed the back of the gum I couldn’t see what was wrong lmao

What's in the mirror if there is no visible light?

@@russellzauner I don't know for sure, but the fact that you can see heat signatures with a thermal camera in a mirror would mean that the mirror reflects infrared light as well as light in the visible spectrum.

@@austinmoore245 And here I would have imagined the mirror universe would be cold. Visible-spectrum Bias at its finest.

There is no spoon. It is not the spoon that bends light, it is only yourself.

Totally

Ikr, I would facepalm at least

I personally think the condescension is a much needed thing. It's like telling a fat person that they're not fat and they're perfectly fine when in fact it looks like they're gonna have a heart attack every time they try to move. Sometimes feelings need to be hurt if in fact you care about these people

​@o0O-JD-O0o There are many people reading this that wish to respond, but they don't care enough about you to do so.

@@o0o-jd-o0o95 There are better ways to convey those ideas than condescension. This video is a good demonstration.

I only came here for the lulz. But your explanation works too

this is the actual reason why people is confused, and this is the answer they need, thanks.

The fact that she wanted to know and then asked the question literally makes her smarter than anyone who thinks its a small minded question. In fact exponentially smarter. Why is it a small minded question? Answer that question and it will back up what I said.

@@jcmurr2669 i disagree. if you understand how a mirror works you can easily see how that question doesn't make any sense... it just shows she's never really thought about it.

Well if you think its sad that it needs to be that would be a bad thing. Any person who feeds a hunger for knowledge they dont have is ALWAYS a good thing. The fact that what any of us know is always much less than what we dont know. There is so so so much more that people know then there is things that we do know. So thinking someone is dumb for asking a question is dumb. Smarter people do not overestimate how smart they are. That is something that dumb people do. You had a good comment and I think you know the answer to it. Peace!

​@@jcmurr2669 Well said

@@jcmurr2669 Nah, there are in fact stupid questions. Someone who can't understand this mirror example innately is never going to use their knowledge to create anything of value (unless they're like, 5 years old). Personally, I think adults like this should be put on boats and left to drift into the ocean; or airdropped into Australia.

I'm sad that people are feeling pretty smug when sometimes what's behind the paper isn't what you think (it's just what you see). If nobody questions what they see, then nothing new is discovered, and if you have been told what a thing is by someone else then your cognitive bias is unavoidable when coming up with "your own" result. We can look, but we still just assume. We can look behind the paper, without moving. Maybe there is something we didn't expect there. Ghost imaging (also called "coincidence imaging", "two-photon imaging" or "correlated-photon imaging") is a technique that produces an image of an object by combining information from two light detectors: a conventional, multi-pixel detector that doesn't view the object, and a single-pixel (bucket) detector that does view the object.[1] Two techniques have been demonstrated. A quantum method uses a source of pairs of entangled photons, each pair shared between the two detectors, while a classical method uses a pair of correlated coherent beams without exploiting entanglement. Both approaches may be understood within the framework of a single theory.[2]

@@jcmurr2669 they're making viral videos trying to make people question something that they most likely understood otherwise. People are being fooled in to thinking a mirror is not just a flat plane reflecting light but some kind of 3 dimensional space, that is why it's sad. If you first thought that the reflection was BEHIND the object rather than next to it, that's extremely sad and an indication of a drastic dumbing down of society. You've got to admit, when everyone's face is glued to their smart phones all day, they'll probably lose touch with reality. We didn't have that problem so much a decade ago. If these were children, then you'd have a point and I'd agree.

I was just trying to find this comment

Yeah he just can't hold it in😂

Deleuze has an entire book on the work of Lewis Carroll called The Logic of Sense….probably the deepest most complex writing ever composed regarding concepts within the Carroll universe. Extremely difficult text but worth the effort if you enjoy challenging works of philosophy

I had similar thoughts as a child! Of course, you could just take a hand mirror up those stairs and into the other rooms to see what they would look like in a mirror image (or cell phones in selfie mirror mode).

one time, my sister changed apartments on the same building and she got a room on the other side of the building and when I went to visit her my brain was a little confused as to why this felt so familiar yet so foreign to me lol it took a while to process it was just the same place but everything was flipped

Liminal spaces.

All the physics in that reflected world are not the same as the original world.

yes! theres a huge difference in education quality in the US. It could also be that the students didnt fully understand or didnt have too much care for this small sect of science and it didnt get committed to memory. We are all so different and beautiful, and I love seeing people learn and grow in these things!

@@rachelhutchinson5464 🤨

@@rachelhutchinson5464 are you serious? Are you justifying the dumbness of these people? I am pretty sure a beluga whale with no degree can understand how this works. It's common sense not even science. Mirrors are so simple. If you can look at something through mirror, that means light is falling on it and reflecting. Simple as that. And without even knowing anything I love how everyone assumes they are from US 😂

😂😂😂 star trek wars!

you need to go to school to know how mirrors works ? they just need to turn on the brain and go off social media .

TikTok is the problem, it's designed to turn westerners into medieval peasants who think basic science is sorcery

@@AerialAge yeah, I was never taught exactly how mirrors worked, yet a bit of experimentation, and I realized "Hang on! A mirror kinda acts as a window to a flipped version of the world!"

As if you are so smart lol

They were likely homeschooled

You sound like the kind of kid who would hang upside down over the side of the sofa and imagine walking on the ceiling the way I did.... or looking at a painting and wondering was around the bend in a river (for example) in a landscape painting my mom used to hang over the same sofa and I'd gaze at it for minutes on end inventing various places the bend in the river might go to, most of them being something like Oz. I could even imagine the sound of the leaves crunching and the smell of the muddy riverbank.

You love mirrors? then I would recommend his video about "why mirror only reflect writing horizontally?". (Kinda forgot wether this video is actually ActionLab's, Veritasium's, or Steve Mould's)

❤ love ya

Didn't you go to school?

@@paulaharrisbaca4851 I feel so called out right now with that walking on the ceiling comment. 😂 But absolutely was I that kind of kid.

Some schools are no longer teaching evolution in their classrooms so I’m sure this will get worse.

Didn't you hear the news? now the new trend is not the flat earth but the mirrors are fake and UN and NASA are behind them

Sadly, all according to plan by those political entities who stand to profit from a voting base unable to think for themselves.

I don’t remember this from elementary science, but you do learn it in high school physics. Elementary science is much more basic fundamentals like the water cycle.

@@CommanderNissan i mean i learned in elementary that on a shiny surface, the angle of incidence is the same as the angle of reflection. thats all i needed to know and my brain just did the rest. i find it mind boggling that people actually dont understand how a mirror works.

Master Chief stepped upon the lush greenery of the Halo. He was ready to fight the Covenant and win the war. Then he starved and died because the food on the Halo consisted of D-amino acids and not L-amino acids. 👍

Okay, but when you'd bring it back, it would turn into regular decongestant.

@@EGRJ If that's what happens, then the entire issue of being incompatible with mirror-image chemicals is null and void. Because what you're basically suggesting is that going into the mirror at all turns you into a reflection.

Well, yes. But only the side not facing us.

yeah but thats the same thing as holdin the piece of paper 2 inches away from a regular mirror

Stupid mirror-me! Get out of my way!

I like the thought that the mirrored version presses you back out of the mirror.

@@mjmulenga3 That's (I think) also how many animals see that (humans are also animals but they live differently to most other species), just another one of them pressing them back.

I don't think that's true. From what I understand just inverting the chirality of every chemical and protein in our body, the chemistry would no longer function correctly.

@@k_tess If everything is inverted it should all still work. It's when there's a chirality mismatch that problems arise.
