You and nine other individuals have been captured by super-intelligent alien overlords. The aliens think humans look quite tasty, but their civilization forbids eating highly logical and cooperative beings. Unfortunately, they’re not sure whether you qualify, so they decide to give you all a test. Can you solve this hat riddle? Alex Gendler shows how.

And what would we do if someone's as tall as me?
j'ai pensé à deux autres solutions, le premier dit la couleur de la personne 2, si la personne suivante à la même couleur, il prononce sa couleur rapidement sinon il attend un peu avant de le dire et ainsi de suite
sinon tout simplement crier sa couleur quand la personne en face a un chapeau blanc et ke dire normalement si il a un chapeau noir
just tell the color infront of you lol
I am one intellect ahead of you
WHY ARE THESE ALIENS SO CUTE 🥺
1:36 Pretty simple, you call 911 and get the military, who will in turn perform a rescue operation and hack the ship, bring the aliens down, and take them to Area 51.
This was good
This is what they ask in google interview and they have to crack it in few minutes. No wonder they get paid big.
Nice 👍👍
The TedEd cinematic universe is the only one where math classes not only come up in the real world but are the matter of life and death
We’re doomed… 👽 🛸
Why would they not just say the color of the hat in front of them? The 1st guy would be wrong, but everyone else would hear which color to say.
What happens if all the hats in front of number 9 are the same colour. Zero is neither odd or even.
Guess you could denote zero as even.
Literally just look 💀
Take the hat off
Found the answer after 3h, so happy😁
So there’s another solution if the tallest one say the color of the worm that’s in front of him and the worm that’s in front of him say the same color and this pattern continue until the last one I think that’s some of the solution
Alternative ending:
Me: “Well if 5 through 9’s hats are white then mine must be white too!”
Alien: BYE BISH
Nice Video Brother Love it
Falsely fall of your hats and by picking them up you see the colour
Aliens aren't intelligent so if you keep telling them lies they keep believing you
This brought me back
You can be wrong once. So just do the opposite once it's done. Because you have a 5 minute timer
And 1 of them is a suicidal 😂😂
10 years ago this was possible. Today with tiktok kids, good luck with half the people forgeting what it meant bc they got distracted 30 seconds into the conversation of the plan XDD
Ten of us against three aliens – I'd just play along until the first person has to guess – and when he yells NOW we rush them and pistol-whip them to death with their rayguns
Really, we shouldn't be humouring aliens like these. If they're peaceable that's fine. But if they're intent on eating us we just shouldn't stand for it, and I'm outraged that this video is endorsing compliance! 😡😡😡
Why do I look like that?
no, i cannot lol
발성 개 거슬리네 너무 낮게말함ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅠㅠ

I remember watching this in gifted class in like 3rd grade
