Video Brain Teaser #5

[Killuminatyi]

This one is way too easy, cause it's like.. 4 sticks make up a square!

[blanknot]

I over thunk it at first.

[gemadiktuz]

haha #LOL haha

[2007sahara2007]

hmmm...that's not the way I did it

[videomathtutor]

@2007sahara2007 There's more than one solution.

[Grove537]

i figured that out at the begging...simple.

[videomathtutor]

@Grove537 I hope you meant: "beginning." I'd hate to see you beg.

[Zackie1707]

he keps on asking the same question but he solves it in diffrent ways

[videomathtutor]

@HighGuy512 But can you do 4?

[GNRmusicdude]

Lol...kudos man... thanks for taking the comment sportingly!!

[GNRmusicdude]

This guy reminds me of Ned Flanders...four diddly squares..hehehe

[videomathtutor]

@GNRmusicdude I am not worthy!

[qanthonyq]

I got this one right, i didn't get the previous ones right though.

[videomathtutor]

@qanthonyq Way to go! Now try the others. Take your time to answer them. I am sure you will get many more.

[24unknown241]

i actually got this one correct

[BximTooJOHNLY]

it seems as though there getting easier

[ImMyXD]

[niikkeel98]

i am sorry but i hate brain teasers

[videomathtutor]

Then WHY are you even here?

[niikkeel98]

i just cant figure out square puzzles

AND dont need TO get MAD!!!!

[videomathtutor]

Then don't get mad. Try the other puzzles I have here. More are on the way!

[idrawbetterthanyouXD]

yay i actually got this one XD

[JazzyClaud]

i didnt get it lol, i tryed

[paramarabo]

Very cool, but are all the brain teasers about squares?

[videomathtutor]

No. Keep watching! (On my website, I provide a directory to the Brain Teasers).

[Harvestmoonman]

I made a group on Facebook dedicated to you. Its called "We love Videomathtutor and how he owns people"  Do you mind? Can I include your videos on the page?

[videomathtutor]

Ummm... I thank you for the compliment, but I already have a facebook page. I don't go around "owning" people. You are welcome to include my videos, since I want to get the word out. Could you perhaps call it something else, perhaps related to "Brain Teasers"?

[Rini104]

at least got this one right

[onegin5511]

this is awesome! i love these! im addicted to them lol! :D

[gamer263]

[mytubes200]

[sk8rdman]

[fredrocks222]

[imyourbffjess]

I did not get your EXACT answer, but it was still right. :) Cool video.

[FiRsTClass101]

[patyttafg]

[kayybae]

wow.... uhm wow...

[lily2636]

[woppitydoop]

got it

[jalr2d2]

easyer than 1-4

[ADUKA17]

Solved it to.. but my squares are always in diferent positions:S

[Jordan914NF]

ahh I heard 3 this time and did get it (the only part that took me a couple min was the position for the square)

[punkyprincessful]

not gonna lie but didn't get that one

[ibekkg1]

This one is like almost the same as #4, which I solved

[iwazan00b]

just as easy as 3

[georgef551]

My answer looked like the one to #4, but done moving 4 sticks.

Two possible answers (minus any 90-degree variants).

[selenanashleyfan]

YAY! i got it!

[gidanogo76]

omg there is omer then one way and i finally got one ! :D

[DjCripples]

I knew it yayyyyyyyy!!!!!!

[tmvebb]

i got dis 1 rite!

[skittlesman1234]

this is the only one i have gotten right so far

[ioannis975]

the new square doesn't have to be anywhere near the other two squares, it may also be constructed in the other side of the room!! :-)

[videomathtutor]

Sure, that works, but I am too lazy to walk that far.

[lolz12347]

my soultion ended up with the same pic that u had last vid

[charlieandfalloutboy]

these are good! where do you come up with them??

[videomathtutor]

I did not come up with them. I learned them myself. I did come up with one, it is #58. Some are classic problems that are over 100 years old.

[ZMFcomedy9]

yay thats the first one i did right

[HangingWithBilly]

I didn't get that one either! Lol.

[Chorser]

This one was probably the easiest so far...

[strudedoo]

you don't really give enough thinking time. you just go right to the solution.

[videomathtutor]

Think about this: Use the PAUSE button. It is there are a reason.

[aandwstud]

i was just about to say that. i mean there is a such thing as a pause button, it stops the vid anytime ...

[cubbiproductions]

i got it

[Pharatos666]

stop with the squares make other ones tooo easy

[videomathtutor]

I have other non-square puzzles. Keep looking.

[Yomutsusuck]

MAKE HARDER ONES;_]

[videomathtutor]

Of course, if they are too hard, people will complain about that too.

[badalex17594]

i solved this its easy

[ToyWhip]

"here's one solution"

where's the second xD

[videomathtutor]

There are several. You can "rotate" my solution to get several more. Feel free to try to get these answers yourself.

[Rikuarf3]

Ha.

[JamezJN007]

I solve this, finally

[austingwiz1]

i did this in my 3rd grade class lol

[MrJakeValley]

Couldnt you remove two of the sticks at the edge and then move the the4 sticks from the oppisite side to that side?

[videomathtutor]

That moves 6 sticks. You are only allowed to move 4.

[Suusterr]

got it :D

[2176565]

nailed it

[oreocookie235]

I only figured the frist brain teaser && this one lol ;p its hard

[sk8bastard93]

all videos are to easy !!

[ben2858]

moving 4 sticks to get 3 identical squares is much easier than moving only 3 sticks to get the same result don't you think?

[ItzGam3rz]

Some Of The Viewers Might Not Be Educated. (Not Calling Anyone Dumb! So Dont Be A Hater.)

[videomathtutor]

Even uneducated people are able to spell better than what I am seeing here online. American students are getting sloppier and lazier. It has nothing to do with hate. It is a fact. They need to get their act together if the USA wants to remain a superpower. Here are three things they can do to improve: 1) Turn off that video game. 2) Turn off that TV. 3) Read more books.

[dragonlance99]

agreed

[masscoon1]

dam foiled again

[ItzGam3rz]

Our flaws is what makes us unique. The important thing is that you can read it.

[videomathtutor]

Flaws are one thing. Sloppiness and laziness are another. One should ALWAYS strive to improve oneself.

(By the way, I made four typos while making this comment. I corrected them.)

[cowsarecool111]

i don't want to brag but i am in a T.A.G. program witch stands for talented and gifted and ive noticed allmost all bad coments have at least two spelling mistakes or grammer mistake so that really says something about them but i think i have some spelling mistakes but i am writing a nice respectful comment unlike those people who are a shame to our common suceity

[videomathtutor]

Yeah, you have many typos in your comment, but it was a nice one. I recommend you and others just take the time to re-read what you type before you post it. That will eliminate most errors. Also, most PCs/Macs have spell checkers and dictionaries. It does not hurt to use them!

[stmb1]

In school we should but on-line unless we are typing a project it is ok it is just eaiser

[videomathtutor]

No, it makes things more difficult for anyone trying to read the comments.

[MentalAsHell]

I'm In A Gifted In Talented And Talented Thing To. : )

And Yeah,, I Totally Agree,, If You're Not Going To Be Nice Don't Say Anything At All.

[marcpairc]

my sticks dont stick to the wall

[videomathtutor]

Then put them on the table.

I stuck magnets on the sticks I used.

[SayNOToStrangerz]

lol nice one

[stonejones1]

I really love your video!

Thanks for giving me some fun and challenging brain teasers!

[bLackpuppet]

challenge is to do it with 4 but it can be done with 3 also :)

was easy too

[MadBears101]

awsome

[kennu7776]

lol epic comments

[HAZIDEAD]

I just started watching your videos today and I love them. I love you, your style and most of all: your comments!!

[TheSinisterBunny]

SMARTY PANTS!!!!!

[chainprinces54]

You are really smart

who teached you?

did you go to school?

ARE U EINSTEIN!!?????

[videomathtutor]

*SIGH* (Rolls eyes!)

Many people taught me stuff, from my parents to teachers in school to just regular people I meet.

Yes, I went to school.

Only people named "Einstein" are Einstein.

[chainprinces54]

U ARE really really smart who teached u?

did u go to skool?

did u take a after skool math program?

ARE U EINSTEIN?

AHHHHHHHH! PLZ ANSWER!

[videomathtutor]

Please write in proper English, THEN I will answer.

[Joemama85916]

Geez. This guys got to stop with the stupid sarcastic and obnoxious comments......not to say that this comment isnt one. But still, i wanted to make a point. Stop with the critiquing also. Yes, I AM waiting for a good reply to this comment :)

[videomathtutor]

Nah... I don't think I will give you a good reply to your comment.

[Joemama85916]

Wow u sure replied quickly. What? Are you on like 24/7??

[videomathtutor]

Close. It's more like 16/7.

[Joemama85916]

Still, thats a bit scary. Thats alll day and 4 hoursrs of sleep or whatever you do....math i gues :/

[videomathtutor]

Ummm... 24 - 16 = 8 hours of sleep. I run an internet business, so it makes sense I need to be online as much as possible so I can help my customers.

[missprissaves]

i didn't not get it

[videomathtutor]

Don't Never Use No Double Negatives.

[gloatgoat]

wouldn't it be a idiot reply as i did get it or i did not , not get it

[angeelaLantano]

sweet i got this one..stupid brain teasers 2 3 and 4 lol

[noahanderson15]

SWEET

[kJztheChildOfSaturn]

we did this in logic class in the 9th grade and i still remembered it, for some reason.

i was hoping for a new answer thou`.. i wonder if there's any other possibility..

[Felgrand101]

I just don't get why people are talking so negatively. This is cool. Even though I was able to come up with the solution on the first 5 (i've only seen those 5), it's still fun to do. So if you don't like it, don't watch it.

[pastrami757]

i got that one. only because the one b4 this was pretty similar.

[iasmihth]

wow takes skills ...NOT

[moedrums123]

wow u suck man stop makin videos

[videomathtutor]

Wow! Your writing sucks, man. Stop leaving comments.

I took a quick glance at the "Video Masterpieces" you have on your channel, and you are telling me *I* suck? (And you probably did not make any of them yourself, but rather just took what others made).

I hope to make MANY more videos. If you don't like what I do, then don't watch them!

[Hikuvu]

Brilliant, This is why I respect intelligence, and intelligent people. Great Video, I hope you make more.

[lakersqueen02]

I have a brain teaser for you.

If I gave you a pair of hair clippers, how would you position the blade to cut off that racoon tail on the back of "YO" head, Sir?

Pardon the ebonics.

[videomathtutor]

I would firmly position the clippers over the trash bin, then drop.

I would then proceed to teach you how NOT to be shallow and judgmental over how a person looks. I had hoped people in the 21st Century were above that. Oh, well...

Special Note: This is a person who does not have the balls (or ovaries) to have a photo on his/hers/its profile.

[randall12221995]

LOL

[Harvestmoonman]

I like watching your videos, but I prefer reading how you own people! LOL

[tekken138isback]

pwned

[hobbsrocks]

burn!

[Peace17love]

that was really easy

[ReallyRandomGurl]

i got it differently, but still got it

[830690]

wow i got this in primery scool

[FreemanMk2]

cool. i took you literally and there for had a different answer.

[ladybatrocks]

wow your awsome dude XD

[BrodMan3000]

ok thanks for the help

[BrodMan3000]

how much does it cost

[videomathtutor]

Prices vary. Go to the store to find out.

[BrodMan3000]

how do you get those sticks to stick to that board (or what ever it is)

[videomathtutor]

I stuck magnetic tape to the popsicle sticks.

[BrodMan3000]

and where can i find magnetic tape

[videomathtutor]

Crafts store, craft section of Wal-Mart, school supply store, Art supply store.

[TheHereticConspiracy]

I like how everyone is trying to tell you that your wrong and you tell them how it is lol keep it up, good stuff.

[themixeruper]

got it :)

[hip728]

they all do not have any sounds

[videomathtutor]

Yes, they have sounds. It is in mono, not stereo, so that may be why you cannot hear. Check your sound settings.

[gloinus]

Could you make them stereo?

It's really frustrating to hear only my left speaker talking...

[videomathtutor]

I'm sorry about that. I can't do anything with the ones I have online now, but I hope to make future ones in stereo, since I now have MUCH better equipment for video making.

Subtle hint: The more people that can buy my DVDs, the better the equipment I can get. I am still hoping to get a better sound recording system.

[huntingforyoualways]

argh! more sticks

[videomathtutor]

Don't worry, there are some here that are not matchstick problems. I also hope to have future ones that are of other types.

[huntingforyoualways]

ok thnx

[onegin5511]

ha ha

[natker13]

do something besides squares!

[Rebel2332]

yea
