How The Most Useless Branch of Math Could Save Your Life ? Then the Math is not Useless is it ? and your video is making money or could be, so this Branch of Math seems to be more useful than you think.

Actually these knots are in hindu temples everywhere in naga mandir and also dna structures.

thank god we received a very important information such as how to keep our earphones untangled in our pockets when almost nobody uses wired earphones anymore

Mindblowing how you can make such a random Video, make it very good and connect it to like everything in the universe.

2:08 missed opportunity to call it a “Not”

As a logo designer I am really enjoying this.

If it's knot theory, is it practice?
@potota-kb3to Says:
butterfly method here
@shaggyburns Says:
I can't help but watch every one of your videos... you're like the math version of watching a run clearner clean a rug. I don't understand how you do it, but I love the process.

WOLFGANG HAKEN! One of the best classical musicians and one of my favourite bands (Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Haken - A metal band)
@Qambodia- Says:
“This is easily the largest number we have ever shown in a video” wow that’s how you convey scale right there 🤯
@katejay9786 Says:
There is something adorable and quintessentially knot nerd about saying "we study how knots form in the real world" when you mean "we watch pieces of string spin around in a perspex tumble dryer"
@xernnuthemadlad8148 Says:
I love knotting :)
@ryuhhn-fb3pe Says:
okay so how do i tie my shoelaces again
@rutujabadle5644 Says:
Untangling and unknotting has always been my fav hobby since i was a kid cuz its so much intellectually stimulating for me, but i always thought that this interest is the most useless thing about me. But recently I started making macrame again, and my interest was piqued, again, thats what led me to this video….. its a beautiful explanation, tysm❤️
@BorisNVM Says:
Conway would be proud
@ToeNailMuncher111 Says:
How dare he open the video with this and not tell us which is way of tying shoelaces is better. Unbeliveable.
@Gabriel-yd9zt Says:
That plus that equals fifteen... think about it.
@hclssuck Says:
Why did you change the title?
@seanlowery9258 Says:
Come fishing with me whenever you want I could show you a new knot every other cast lol
@gsaats Says:
Excuse me!!!!!
@threeriversforge1997 Says:
This is why everyone should have a copy of the Ashley Book of Knots in their library. Study 'marlinspike seamanship' for even a few days, and you quickly see how important knots are, and how seemingly complex knots are often just simple knots built upon each other. Clifford Ashley was documenting knots before knots were cool!
@zebrg Says:
Soooo.... In which direction should I tie my shoelaces? Clockwise or counterclockwise?
@NathanZimmerman Says:
How did they miss 'naught knot'?
@Cowtymsmiesznego Says:
I was 100% sure this video would be about topology... and I guess I'm right, kinda
@biggamer387 Says:
reef knot
@TehPwnerer Says:
There are three ways however is effectively equivalent to one here however practically it is far superior.
@user-pn9oh2dg9l Says:
15:20. With poke and slide there are also monochrome cases.
@steveclark2205 Says:
Not knott theory
@robertc.7167 Says:
Great video, as usual. Minor note, 26:54 shows a paramecium, which is a eukaryotic single-celled organism, not a bacterium. It is unlikely that medically useful quinolones would affect a paramecium since their topoisomerases are likely to be more similar to ours than to bacterial topoisomerases.

Pretzels are yummy 😎 👶
@Wildwanderer99 Says:
It doesn't matter if it was a solution in knot theory. It was a solution. These best kind.

There are a lot more than two ways to tie your shoes...
@just_yelsew Says:
so... i spent 4 hours untangling a knot just to learn that there is probably someone out there who could do it in 5 minutes.
@Varntex Says:
These shoelace tying tutorials are getting out of hand, ill just buy velcro shoes
@Jamblox-nm5er Says:
The fact that the intro alone made me like the video is crazy
@Knight3rrant Says:
If you are familiar with the philosophy of the great Robert Anton Wilson, I posit this for consideration: String Theory po Knot Theory
@Knight3rrant Says:
We need a follow-up video on what all this knot theory means regarding conquering the practical, real-world, problem of detangling a mess of wire/rope/line the most efficient way possible.
@petachad420 Says:
Best knot is dragon knot
@jaywolfie5445 Says:
Zoowhee momma this one had me stressed
@litigioussociety4249 Says:
That's not how I tie my shoes. U make two loops, and tie them together. May or may not be a different type of knot.
@anastazjaszymichowska905 Says:
Please help me learn this
@incaseofimportantnegotiations Says:
pffff i do two strings self loop
@UselesStranger Says:
This is amazing. I am extremely happy, that this video found me today.
I've loved knots since childhood. I was tieing knots and drawing them in my album for hours, I've tried to compare and replicate them.
Is there any books abouts knots? I really want to explore its mathematic and scientific side
