Maybe you woke up today and said to yourself, “You know, I’d love to watch an online video and be made to feel like a complete dunce.” If that’s the case, then block out 20 minutes from your schedule and watch this video on how to turn a sphere inside out.
I’m glad to have majored in journalism and political science rather than engineering or anything math-related; this video nearly brought me to tears.

As with most complex scientific theories that are dumbed down so I can understand them - I always get lost at the half way point. I understood the prohibitions on circles, but I’m lost on how circles can be turned inside out. Is there a remedial video?

Interesting that a 2D (circle) can’t be turned inside out, but a 3d (sphere) can be. OK, what does this mean for 4D objects? Anyone…Bueler…
