Sphere Inside out Part - II

it is possible to turn a sphere inside out in 3-space with possible self-intersections but without creating any crease, a process often called sphere eversion (eversion means "to turn inside out").

I feel sorry for the poor bastard who had to animate all this shit

You have a problem? Just add waves to it

@CreamyRage Didn't you watch the video? It didn't get pulled into a point. Watch it again closer this time.

Wouldn't there be an infinitely tight point at the centre where they all interact? When pulled through the equator :/

it kinda makes me wanna barf

@vipertxt Thats just it, there doesnt NEED to be any material with these properties ever. But studying abstract mathematical objects like this sometimes generates tons and tons of mathematical structure(new equations, relationships, etc) that could help in solving other problems within the respective field, in this case topology or even other areas of mathematics could benefit. I think the study of surfaces is also crucial to the development of 3D modeling/animation software also.

@partymagnus213 It's because the crease becomes infinitely tight and doesn't actually turn inside out.

nice explanation !!! ... I am just about to take a course in which I am going to understand what is going on there . Thanks for the surprise

@boinghd Unless you have the same properties of a neutrino...
