bungle, I can't tell whether you know this and are sarcastic or don't know it and are trying to prove him wrong.

It's actually that the fibonacci number's ratios approach the golden ratio. As you go up the sequence, the two numbers substituted into the rectangle will approach the ratio, about 1.618. That's why it started with 2 and began to slowly decrease, and it's limit will be at said ratio.

0.618, not 1.618

Hang on a sec! The Golden ratio is derived from the fibonacci series with the numbers 21 and 34, but that is just 2 adjacent numbers in the series. You can't pull any other adjacent numbers in the series and derive the ratio. ie the ratio of 2 to 1 or 3 to 5. Makes me think that the fibonacci series has nothing to do with the golden ratio.

You're probably right, and Fibonacci invented his series to represent the growth rate of immortal rabbits : s : )

"You can't pull any other adjacent numbers in the series and derive the ratio" .. that's not true , it works on any two numbers ( for sure , they must come one after the other in the series ) you can watch vedios about the Fibonacci series & the golden ratio that explain the realtionship between those two and see other examples =) .
