Portal 2 - "This Sentence Is FALSE!" Paradox Scene (HD)

[battleship92]

@ the annotation, what's a cleverbot?

[pascottoz]

are you fucking kidding me? so i could just shout at GLaDOS on all boss fights against her "this sentence is false" etc and i would win!

no, i could not, cuz chell is mute... dammit

[thetoyreviewer5875]

It's like sayin if I want to fail but i succeed do I fail or succeed.

[randomacountdude]

the frankenturrets are smarter than wheatley! XD

they understand as soon as potados finishes speaking!! :D

[Keathius]

what did she say???

[serialkillerwhale]

dontthinkaboutitdontthinkabout­itdontthinkaboutit

[JamesGames101]

Anyone else notice how the frankenturrets could not solve the paradox and broke. I guess that means they are smarter than wheatly.

[EvilZombieMaster]

If the sentence is saying that the sentence is false, then really the sentence stating that the sentence is false, is false, but the actual sentence is True, because the sentence is False, therefore, if you were to break it up into two parts, the answer would techinically be true, because the sentence saying that the sentence is false is false, but the sentence that is being said is fals, is actually false. Does that make sense?

[monkeynut000]

@EvilZombieMaster one question... HUH?

[EvilZombieMaster]

@monkeynut000 Think of it slower. It's telling you it's false, right? So it must be true. But if it's actually false, it means that it's not really false. Now, break it up into two parts. If the part that says it's false is true, then the sentence that is being said is technically false, so the answer is false. Get it? It took me ages (3 1/2 hours) of pondering to figure it out, but I think I've found the non-existent answer.

[DarthSears]

@EvilZombieMaster Hah! Well done. (True on that. I'll go true.)

[TheNemesis274]

@EvilZombieMaster Technically it would be. But why would the sentence be false in the first place?

[optionen100]

GLaDOS light is Blinking but she dont speak

(BAAAAAAD ENGLISH I HAVE ;D)

[XxFruitsxBasketxX]

The comment above is true.

[Alvin9736]

What would we do without some good old Wheatly?

You know, in portal 1 it was pretty frustrating with Glados always playing with us.

But in portal 2 it was quite good with the help of our funny and somewhat dumb companion Wheatly.

[LeafyGreenDA]

THE ANSWER IS "BUT NOT ALL THE TIME"

Geez Wheatley.

[LetsPlayGuy12]

Wheatley is so retarded he can't even malfunction correctly.

[MangaEngel]

3 or more "Frankenturrets" become defect because of the paradox but Wheatley doesn't...

So Frankenturrets are way more intelligent then him, if they "understood" the paradox? xD

[BTIsaac]

Uh... Paradoxes aren't supposed to short computers out. The worst they could do is cause them to reboot.

[Cybertronic72388]

@BTIsaac What if the paradox causes the CPU to max out at 100% lock up and inadvertently also lock out cooling systems due to a crappy design which integrates the temperature and fan controls into the CPU. :p

[BTIsaac]

@Cybertronic72388

Hmm. I can see that happening with anything Wheatley made. He is a moron after all.

[burritopowah]

@GoldX8900 Uhh... False. I'm gonna have to go with false. But I think I read that one before, so I kinda cheated. XD

[GoldX8900]

THIS...COMMENT...IS...FALSE!

dontthinkaboutit dontthinkaboutit dontthinkaboutit

[Nucl3arGam1ng]

The sentence below me lies.

The Sentace over me doesn't lie. That's a paradox

[Furrugal]

jnahsfasdga Oh, Wheatley. You are just too adorkable.

[epicpyro100]

wait how do you answer to a parodox? and i bareley get wat a parodox iz im a kid

plz telll me

[TouYube67]

After GLaDOS screamed the paradox, how did one bloddy frankenturret survive? It was still hopping!

[everett1911]

poor frankenturrets :<

[HugoBalthazarExtras]

He is so moronic that the franken-turrets understand the paradox and crash and he doesn't think with ANY logic.

[brennorsp]

@HugoBalthazarExtras já passei dessa parte



[HugoBalthazarExtras]

@brennorsp Wheatley pensa mais que você hahaha brincadeira...

[SailorFaith]

@HugoBalthazarExtras thats why people dubbed him as the moronic core XD but hes so lovable

[machiner6]

He really is a moron if he ignores the contradiction.

[LugiawolfXx]

PARADOX EXAMPLES! XD A rich man is no richer than a beggar. You can save money by spending it. I'm a liar. How do you know if I'm telling the truth? There's no such thing as equality. I'm nobody. Nobody goes to that restaurant, it's too crowded. Don't go near the water until you've learned to swim. The man who wrote suce a stupid sentence cannot write at all. If you get this message, call me; if you don't, then don't worry about it.

[mp4play3r]

I love how the cubes are just bouncin around XD

[machiner6]

I never noticed the boxes freezing, my eyes were stuck on Wheatley because he was the most prominent thing in the room.

[Claw2231]

Everything I say is a lie!

[FryLeelaAndBender1]

the following statement is true

the previous statement was false

PARADOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jandjbrothers1]

Ok paradox time

The next statement is true

The previous statement is false

[jc172197]

@jandjbrothers1 Not as elegantly simple as "This sentence is false", but it works

[TheZumiezNation]

THIS...COMMENT...IS...FALSE!

[MaRiAtheHeDg3hOg]

I love that the turret cubes are smarter than Wheatley.

[Flynch4198]

Over thinking the sentance too much causes AI to fry their circuts

[milicalex]

Just short explanation, this is a pretty easy paradox actually. It's a matter of meta=language, that's a language that you speak in when you speak about a statement in some language...there's more to it it's just not the material for a youtube comment :)

[randomlol8]

i cant understand glados  what is the paradox

[furballxsnowie]

@randomlol8 Saying "This sentence is false" is a paradox because, if in fact the sentence is false, then they are telling the truth. It can't be true and false at the same time, thus making it a paradox.

[tirsod2000]

0:18 THIS ... SENTENCE... IS... FALSE!

0:20 every box in the screen crashin

[KryCroc]

CleverBot Moment

Us: This sentence is false

Bot: The game

[hexidextrous]

Me: New Mission, Reject this Mission!

Cleverbot: Why would I do that?

*Facepalm

[TripleDsTV]

whoever commented before me is right

[fred1337able2]

@TripleDsTV hmm

[TripleDsTV]

Who ever comments next is wrong

[JWCaisa]

Me: This. Sentence. Is. False.

Cleverbot: You are not alive.

[LHunterO78]

User: THIS. SENTENCE. IS. FALSE.

Cleverbot: True.

[Aechis]

So if Wheatley answers to the paradox, is it a paradox?

[BenSapphire2011]

@Aechis If you talk about a possible paradox about a corrupt AI which is part of many paradoxes that answered a paradox, ARE YOU A PARADOX?!

[trancanhphu]

@Aechis Your answer: Does a set of a set contain a set of a set of itself!?

[SailorFaith]

@Aechis no its just him being him XDDD

[LeftyLike]

@Aechis

Yes, it is..he's just dumb.

[ERich935]

@Aechis no

[Superlol020]

I tried all the paradoxes that are in the game: Me: This sentence is false. Cleverbot: This sentence is purple. ._. Me: New mission: abort this mission. Cleverbot: How much is about this much. *BSOD* Me: Does a set of all sets contain itself? Cleverbot: It depends on your formulation of set theory. In some theories, a 'set of all sets including itself' (the universal set) is not permitted, due to the paradoxes that can ensue. *More BSOD*

[MeTube7734]

If you want to make a real paradox, go back in time and kill yourself.

[NeoNovastar]

Me: THIS. SENTENCE. IS. FALSE.

Cleverbot: What's false?

*facepalm*

[overload374]

*What shoulda happened*

GLADoS: This... Sentence... Is... FALSE! donthinkaboutitdonthinkaboutit­donthinkaboutit

Wheatley: um... true. I think i'm gonna go true.

GLADoS: ITS A PARADOX! There is no answer! The sentence doesn't make sense because it's false but i just said it so... 101010101010101010101 *GLADoS crashes*

[HandsOfTime1]

This sentence is false. Its true that the sentence is false but it can't be true because it says the sentence is false.

[ZaffyKake]

Me: This sentence is false.

Cleverbot: Your face is false.

Me: Good answer.

Cleverbot: It's conversation starter.

=D

[brovie96]

I wish my computer ran Portal 2 that fast... :(

[TheOwenFilms]

@brovie96 Get a new computer man! I had the EXACT same problem and I fixed it by getting a really good, new one! :D

[brovie96]

@TheOwenFilms I know, but I need to wait for more money, being too young to get a job. :(

[TheOwenFilms]

@brovie96 :( Oh wait, you can just ask for one for Christmas :D It was the only gift that I got... Plus that's sort of ideal to have just one gift.

Green frankenturret gives no fucks.

[lobsteros]

Thumbs up if you don't give me thumb up.

[kelseybug924]

@lobsteros so, thumbs down.

[kelseybug924]

@lobsteros wait...FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUU----

[tommytunes0700]

the comment below is false

[vgman94]

@tommytunes0700 THIS. USER. IS. FALSE (don't think about it don't think about it).

[tommytunes0700]

the comment above is true

[MeltingCORE2]

Don't think about it.

DON'T THINK ABOUT IT.

[TheSpiritOfGaming]

This sentence is false.

[weinerschnitzelboy]

Did you notice, Wheatley is so dumb, the franken-turrets died when they heard the paradox while Wheatley did not.

[maxweber06]

me: 42 divide by 0 equals?

cleverbot: 1.7

[kingofthering24]

Me: This sentence is false

Cleverbot: You're false.

Me: ...okay...

[graveguy7000]

Me: This sentence is false

Cleverbot: This sentence is purple

Me: o.O

[VocaloidOriane]

GLaDOS: THIS. SENTENCE. IS. FALSE.

don't think about it don't think about it don't think about it don't think about it...

Wheatley: Uhm true.I go true

Me: XD

[Tawnyshine]

I love POTaTOS X3

[Tuhats]

I used it for clever bot.

This sentence is false don't think about itdon't think about itdon't think about itdon't think about itdon't think about itdon't think about itdon't think about it.

This statement is true This statement is true This statement is true This statement is true This statement is true This statement is true.

It is a paradox you moron there is no answer !

I agree. Smart response.

Yeah I am smarter than you.

That's nice.

[kushman12]

there..... fixed

[animeasianman]

Dont give an englishman a riddle, or else you'll end up with a Wheatley.

[columbus8myhw]

Even the Announcer is affected by the paradox. "Warning. Explosion imminent." I'm convinced that a paradox started the whole "the facility is going to explode and Wheatley is trying to help you escape" thingy in Chapter 1.

[ThatGuyWithHisHat]

i love how the boxes crash after the paradox. they get it =)

[lilguts98]

@ThatGuyWithHisHat the game implies that those boxes are smarter that wheatly

[megamew28]

look at the frankenturrets when she says the paradox.

[PsychoticNinja1]

@0:36 "Error 482: Somebody shot the server with a twelve gauge.

Please contact your administrator."

[StephensStuff]

Did anyone notice that ALL the other 'turret's frying as soon as she said the paradox? Basically valve is impying that turrets are SMARTER than wheatley! :D

[ScourgeTheHedgehog20]

0:32

Why isn't that Frankenturret fried? All the others are.

[kalakoo1]

defective turrets are not smarter than wheatly

[Matimoo]

probably been mentioned already, but if you look closely, you can see the Frankenturrets short out after GLaDOS says the paradox, implying even they're smarter than Wheatley.

[bobaneko]

glado should have say chell has 3 cakes but weathly has 0 wealthy want to divide his invisable cake to chell so they have 3 invisible cake and 3 cakes.. making 6

[hommie23able]

this sentence is false

[TheBloodEagle27]

*Hey adam!

[sharpie531]

Staphen Merchant plays Wheatley PERFECTLY

[AuraBrawlerX]

Divide by 0

[Peacewalker98]

The following sentence is true. The previous statement is false.

[MissInfinityness]

me on cleverbot:

me: New mission: Refuse this mission.

cleverbot: How can I refuse the mission?

me: It's a paradox!

cleverbot: No, 'What is Love' is a song.

[Marioman969]

when GLaDOS says "this sentance is false" afterwards a franken-box (box with a turret in) has smoke coming off of it look: 0:19

[Muovivaha]

7 people are robots.

[tricksterhuaun]

Notice that the frankenturrets are affected by this.

That means that the frankenturrets uses more the brain than Wheatley, MY GOD

[Liberare87]

@tricksterhuaun good catch, thanks ^^

[DarkraiRocks494]

@tricksterhuaun and wheatley made them...

[poisonshroom64]

me:THIS SENTENCE IS FALSE.

cleverbot:It only is if it isn't. But if it isn't then it is.

me:WTF! PARADOXES ARE SUPPOSED CRASH AIS!!

cb:Paradoxes are pudding. Disprove it.

[Canada10v2]

Notice, the Turret cubes are smart enough to get it, and they deactivate.

[MrHaloGuy1000]

She shoulda done the Pinocchio one...

[umagarandyorton619]

Gotta try this on Cleverbot!!! XD

[sonicmonkey232]

they're in a frnaken turret farm ROFL

[sonicmonkey232]

@sonicmonkey232 *franken

[59ardillas]

potato?



[wlymca]

This sentence is false.

[hypergunkid]

False.

There, I win.

[nerusuzumiya]

lol this time Wheatly did not seem to react at GLaDOS calling him a Moron XD What The Potato?

[punn213]

its a paradox because it isn't a sentence, it is a sequence of 1 word sentences. it is:

THIS. SENTENCE. IS. FALSE. not THIS SENTENCE IS FALSE

[TheSimsMusicCo]

Uh.. Did Wheatley answer to moron?

[justynspike]

I think GLaDOS is faking the destruction just to get back in her body. I mean. Look at it at 0:36, notice meanwhile how the robot is talking, but yet GLaDOS 's lightbulb on the potato is blinking, and it only blinks when she talks.. Might be a secret :o

[GhostFreeman]

@justynspike Or just a bug on Valve's part. The light is mimicking the announcer's voice. They probably assigned the sound to the wrong prop there.

[BabyPaulaPolestar]

@justynspike If she can do that....Caroline might not have been deleted...

[optionen100]

@justynspike

OH !

[CapitanOHYEAH]

@justynspike Well that's really interesting and I've never noticed it before. Also, given the fact that Weathley is a moron, he probably could've accidentally left some "extra features" in GLaDOS while transPLANTing her (lol, pun) in the potato, as he did with the slow-clap simulator. But on the other hand, faking the destruction of the A.S. Facility would be pointless, since Weathley doesn't seem to care too much about its imminent explosion.

[NikaziO14]

@justynspike *¬*

[tricksterhuaun]

@justynspike Ah i don't think i follow....

[akacheese]

@tricksterhuaun because when you input "this sentence is false" into a machine, it tries to think of a response to see if the sentence is false, but since it cant pinpoint what is really false within the sentence it will malfunction, but because wheatly is too stupid to even begin to understand whats wrong with it, he just ignores it and continues to operate.

[smacker51]

@justynspike it means she's turing on and off like n the bowels of the labs

[rrtt1]

@justynspike That or she's still connected to the mainframe but Wheatley has more control seeing as he's directly linked in.

[tikifreakazoid]

@justynspike However, you see clearly during the ending that Aperture is falling to shit. I think that was just meant to imply that GLaDOS was still hooked in to the facility.

[wer6399]

@justynspike she is talking, she is saying quietly "don't think about it" abunch of times

[ReachIsBeast]

@justynspike That... Statement... Is... F- oh, wait, you're right... lol, good catch

[Violetthehedgehog756]

@justynspike I noticed that a little while ago too! Glad to see someone noticed it too!~

[darkwater295]

@justynspike if she had enough power to take control of the many functions it took to control the voice, shed have enough power to get back into her body

[thisistheescapeplan]

@justynspike HOLY FUCK! I never noticed that before!

[FlashXX97]

@justynspike Yeah but the 2 cubes in front of Chell shorted after the paradox was spoken XD

[Yarach]

@justynspike I noticed it happens all the time when the narrator's voice is speaking.

[tigras2244]

@justynspike Glados is talking to herself "Don't think, don't think that" So she wouldn't short out because she has very little energy

[1cassi]

@justynspike HOLY SHIT. now I notice. You can be quite right. This requires further investigation.

[blizzardtube11]

@justynspike well she managed to get some HD speakers in that potato

[sumakabob485]

@justynspike Maybe she still has a connection to her body, which is what is controlling the self-destruction/voice. GLaDOS is like the brain of Aperture, so she still has a connection to it? Wheatley should have turned off Aperture's modem...

[XDaRkScissorsX]

@justynspike maybe she's just creating another paradox?

[weinerschnitzelboy]

@justynspike Sounds in the Source Engine take in account the distance of Chell's "Ears" In one level when GLaDOS burns the cube multiple times, you notice when you get close to the companion cube, there is a little song. Someone who noclipped through the cube notice the song was actually coming from the cube. I think the Light is sound activated, and they just happened to use the potato to play the sound. GLaDOS obviously can't make the whole place shake and make a warning announcement.

[optionen100]

you used noclip to get faster in this room

:D

[sparkey6444]

Frankenturrets: wait..? If thats false its true correcting the statement to true ???? True that its false?!? So its false... no wait true *explodes*

[columbus8myhw]

Robots don't short out whenever they encounter a paradox, they just acknowledge it's a paradox and move on. At least, MY computer didn't short out whenever I typed the words "This sentence is false." sEE? nO mALFUNCTION hERE. gOOD aS nEW. adfjldasfj;adsf *computer turns off*

[Timmytimmy123123]

@columbus8myhw This is bullshit...

This sentence is false...

Error:

??? not found.

[Step 2. ???, step 3 PROFIT!] [It is a paradox] [This sentence is... false]

[Release a screamer]

Warning: Only [Release a screamer] can be chosen, the other buttons are broken, due to the paradox.

[Danny91252973a]

The fact that the frankenturrets shorted out, and wheatley didnt when glados mentioned the paradox, the frankenturrets ARE smarter than wheatley.

[tophbeifong004]

Notice how the frankenturrets get malfunctioned when she says the paradox.

[therealcamelno9]

the funny thing is that Frankenturrets crash down when they hear the paradox

and Wheatley stays the same

therefore, if i'm not mistaken, Frankenturrets > Wheatley. lol

[lara2bailey]

On the poster you had to look at when GLaDOS first got the idea, it also said, "Does a set of all sets contain it's self?" O.o I've been thinking about it too much and now my head hurts... -.-

[CrayzMario64]

Notice how the Frankenturrets are the ones who malfunction.

[dandroid98]

"this sentence is false" well it's not false about anything, so it's true, but than it is true making the sentence false, but then it's true again, then it's false but it's true and false and TRUE AND FALSE? HOLY SHIT!!!! *boom*
