Every Paradox in 8 Minutes

Whats the paradox for getting in a comfortable spot to sleep in and then feeling the urge to move one of your limbs and then not being able to sleep comfortably.

A lot of paradoxes listed here: a) have linguuistic problems b) are underspecified c) are very similar to others

"Nobody goes to that restaurant because it's too crowded" paradox

My personal favourite: If you ask Rick Astley for a copy of the movie Up, he can’t give it to you, because he’s never gonna give you up. But in doing so, he lets you down, thus creating the Astley paradox.

I think you missed the crux of the unexpected hanging paradox. The prisoner uses the logic you described to deduce that he’ll never be hanged because it can never be a surprise, but he ends up getting hanged on the Tuesday… much to his surprise.

I have concluded that some paradoxes are actually paradoxical, and others just purposefully ignore reality to be quirky.

Here's a sort of paradox I saw: Benny doesn't fix the hole in his roof when it rains because it's too wet to work, but when it's not raining it doesn't need to be fixed

Most of these are on the level of "How me go place if place far away?" Nice paradoxes.

We need the “I am so comfortable that I don’t wanna get up to pee, but since I have to pee I’m uncomfortable” paradox

Arent the sword a shield and unstopable force vs unmovable object the same paradoxes with just different concepts?

“Second sentence is lying” “First sentence is telling the truth”

3:04 well the crocodile never says in what for state the child will be, if he eats the child, but spits out like bones, he did both things 3:54 well the arrow isn't a quantum object so it is always moving still

Paint Explainer Paradox: If every paradox is only half explained,

Rick Astley Paradox: If you ask Rick Astley for a copy of the movie Up, he cannot give it to your as he's "never gonna give you up." However, by not giving you Up, he lets you down, which he also cannot do since he's "never gonna let you down."

“Do we run duos because we suck at the game, or do we suck at the game because we run duos?”

Here are 2 paradoxes I felt should've been added in this: 1. Mind Reader Paradox - Let's say two individuals, John and Carlos are both mind readers they meet in a restaurant and sit together to eat. While they are eating, they get curious and without notifying the other, they both start reading each other's minds. So now whose mind or what are they actually reading? 2. The Genie Paradox - If you ask a Genie to make you the most powerful sword that no shield can stop and the most powerful shield that no sword can pierce through. What does he make?

Grand hotel is not really a paradox. It’s just how infinity works. Infinity is not a number, it’s a concept such that every number is smaller than it. Nor is birthday. That’s pure probability. The problem is people may not understand math well and thus find those counterintuitive and unbelievable. One common confusion is, we may think of “two people sharing a bday” in the same way as “someone shares my bday”. I’ve taken a college level probability course and still feels like that sometimes.

A few of these paradoxes aren't actually paradoxes or have an explanation. Olbers' paradox in particular is solved beautifully through cosmology (and actually is one of the more intriguing suggestions that the universe might be expanding), the twins' paradox has actually been proven to be true (not with twins I think, but with extremely precise clocks) and Schrödinger's cat paradox is solved once you consider that the cat and the machine HAVE to be considered observers of the phenomenon occurring

I thought the Simpsons paradox would be something like how can a show survive for that long

Wow, very interesting :) I love your explanations! ❤❤❤
