walking down the street and being asked to say a random number and then having the interviewer get excited over your answer has to be so confusing

"he just 37ed and walked away" was undoubtedly the funniest part of this video

It took over half the video to realize i just turned 37... EXACTLY 37 days after the video was published. Been goosebumpy for a while now.

I'm really curious what the results would be if this survey were conducted with children who haven't studied math yet.

37 and 73 being the 12th and 21st prime numbers is satisfying.

The fact this video isn't 37mins long, is an insult to easter eggs everywhere.

It's called the Baader Meinhof Phenomenon. Once you become aware of something, you start seeing it everywhere.

Brilliant should give 37 days free trial instead of 30 for this video

37 actually has a unique universal quality: it's the representation of the exact quantity of 37, a very special property that no other number has.

The fact that he discarded 42 and 69 for obvious reasons is just too funny to me.

I remember answering this poll. I chose 1 because I thought the video was going to be that the graph would be a bell curve towards the middle of the range.

I love how the number 69 was ignored 37% of the time in this video.

In my teenage years, I developed a technique to test if any given number can be divided by a prime. You can think of 2, 7, 23, 137, ... The number 37 is quite interesting, as the recursion involves only three unique steps using my method. While it usually takes six unique steps for common prime numbers. I won't necessarily lay down the whole method here, but the resulting recursive function for 37 is as follow: 1. Multiply the rightmost digit by 26 2. Add the digit as is on its left 3. Continuing another step on the left; add the 3rd number, multiplied by 10 Continue the sum from step 1 with the 4th digit, towards the left, and so on. Let's test the number 6401 (notice all the sums can be divided by 37): 1*26 + 0 + 4*10 + 6*26 = 222 2*26 + 2 + 2*10 = 74 4*26 + 7 = 111 1*26 + 1 + 1*10 = 37 For a total of 4 recursions. Not necessarily the most practical computation, but it turns out correct. You might get stuck in a loop between two multiples of 37 depending on the tested number. Without more thought into the mathematics that hold the function, the particular outcome is currently not determined. You can probably notice different patterns in the steps and their sums. I like to think we can optimize it further from there.

That 37 one dollar bills each with the number 37 is a true act of love from his mother. Beautiful.
