DEEP DIVE #1 - Smarter Every Day 52

Hey, it's me Destin. Welcome back to Smarter Every Day. So today, I'm laying tile in my house, and in order to do so, I have to make all these intricate cuts to lay the proper foundation.

Now, it's pretty challenging, but many people have done this over the years, and I'm just the next one to come along, much like helicopter physics. Now, helicopter physics, as you've learned over the last few videos, is pretty complicated. But what you haven't thought about is how these principles were learned in the first place.

So today, what I'm gonna do is start a playlist called the deep dive. Now the deep dive is pretty simple. All you have to do is click this playlist, and you're gonna start on a journey that's about the length of a normal TV show. The difference on the deep dive is that you're gonna learn things at an incredible rate.

So all you have to do is start the playlist, sit back, and absorb all this knowledge. Now we're gonna go back through the physics of helicopters that we've learned here, but we're also gonna learn how these principles were learned. It's often pretty interesting.

So while I get back to laying the foundation, you go ahead and take the deep dive. You're getting Smarter Every Day.

Oh, one thing I forgot to tell you. If you're a mobile user, you might not be able to click the annotation, so you have to click the link in the description below. I'll see you after the jump.
