@@uneducatedguess6740 this is something that definitely confuses me. I get the basics of it, what throws me off is what it means. Like is it just something used in mathematics or is it actually something. Like is it just an abstract tool?

Yes! When I saw Numberphile paper I thought it may be just me, but then Vsauce, and then Arvin ... Genius way to portrait the multiverse. It's OK to be a little crazy!
This would have been a very good episode even without the amount of work you put into the parodies, but adding that too just made it next level :D A great video, I literally laughted out loud when a new character popped up, you nailed the styles very well!
Nearly spat out my drink when you turned into Matt from PBS Spacetime. Actually all the impressions were well done and a couple got a chuckle out of me, probably my favorite video of yours so far.
I think this is the best april fool's video I've seen on youtube. Just absolutely perfectly done impressions while still putting out an informative video. You just raised the bar for everyone.
This episode was awesome! The way you caugth the nuances of the other youtubers was incredible. Thumbs up! My favourite The Sience Asylum episode so far.

Well, according to a crazy theory I heard about recently, you probably did give the video multiple thumbs up. No Universe exists where a thumbs down happened...
I'm hoping your crappy gets flushed really soon and you start feeling better. It's always fun to watch Nick get into a disagreement with himself and lose.
fun video! good impersonations too. I've got to say, to me, the popular quantum mechanics based version of the multiverse feels like a desperate attempt reject the possibility of true randomness in the universe. Not that its entirely unreasonable, but it feels like something more comfortable for human psychology, as odd as it is. "Weird but deterministic" keeps the "plan" so many people wish surrounds their lives intact, while true randomness throws it all out the window for many of them. I think the ideas people extract from it to make those scifi stories, that choices matter cosmically paired with "its not random, it all happens predictably just elsewhere" overrides the discomfort of other implications from those stories, so they become the pop culture interpretation.
The problem "many worlds" addresses isn't the randomness. It's the arbitrary and non-linear "wave function collapse" and the idea of an "observer". The traditional Copenhagen interpretation says the act of observation collapses the wave function, but it defines neither of those terms. It gives one set of rules for quantum systems and then says "but really there are classical Systems which don't obey them. So here's another set of rules" The many Worlds approach simply says these words are meaningless and all you need is use the same rules for everything. There are no classical systems but the observer and the measurement apparatus are also quantum systems. The many worlds are in the original quantum rules. This approach just takes them serious. While others get rid of them without explaining how or why they're there in the first place if you're not supposed to use them.
This was so much fun! You did a great job of explaining things while also being creative :) love it! Reminds me of the video Captain Disillusion made a while back haha :) I love how you mimicked Matt's slower cadence for the Spacetime bit, proof that many fans of the many worlds all enjoy many science creators across the omniverse and our local... Spacetime :p
The feeling of watching this video for the first time and understanding what’s going on with the “many worlds” of Nick Lucid will perhaps never be replicated, genius writing and editing 👏🏾.
As someone who follows all these channels, this video is already one of the best of youtube for me. Also, I still repeat sometimes the amazing collab you did talking about the Star Trek transporter. It's just peak RUclips content. Keep the excellent work, and thank you!
Hahaha what a wonderful mix!!! LOVED it! It's soo cool that you guys have your own characters and characteristics! Wait, what? What constant should describe this? :)
I LOVE your take on the other science channels! You captured their mannerism perfectly. I wonder how aware each of them are of your take? It looks like you really like each of them and I hope they see it as good humor. Well done, sir! 🙂
I really liked the way Matt (and you in this video) pronounced says (with a long 'a'). Great tribute to your fellow RUclipsrs. Thanks for all of your wonderful content!
Nick has discovered a mind-bogglingly awesome way to access every single version of himself in the multiverse. Talk about taking "being your own biggest fan" to a whole new level! Nice one, Nick. You're like a one-man cosplay convention, The Vausce version of you had me laughing so hard, I nearly died!
I watched this for like the 5th time, I can't get over how well you mimiced Matt's facial movements.The flurry of eyebrow twitches at the end is just beautiful.
I wish there was a universe in which all my friends would enjoy you and the others impersonated as much as I do. We could laugh (and learn) together forever. O, wait a minute, that universe is out there. Just need a way to switch to it 🙂
Outstanding! Had me laughing throughout. Now I'll have to go back for the substance. Especially enjoyed the subtle off-screen question in the Numberphile parody.
Nope. I was wrong. The format is very similar and i got confused because of the cameraman questioning. But it's true that numberphile is the one with the brown paper. 🫥
This video made my head feel like it was expanding into a space that is expanding even faster, never to cross paths with the head of some kind of being made from different particles from another multiverse. Great impressions, love it.
Those impersonations! LOL! 14:33 how many takes did yo uneed in order to maintain your seriousness and not burst out laughing? Great video, thank you all!
This is has been the most ingenious, engaging and craziest way of explaining the multiversal models I have ever seen! Especially as someone who has watched all the channels parodied in the video. Awesome job, Nick! Stay crazy!
This might be my favorite video you've made! Your Matthew O'Dowd impersonation actually reminds me a lot more of Neil deGrasse Tyson in the Cosmos reboots though. Great job! Very clever April fools video.
😂 Had a good few laugh out loud moments with this vid - imagined you trying Mat's Australian accent and was nearly crying laughing - great stuff and a great subject, well told. Thanks again for what you do, love it!
When your hilarious impression of PBS SpaceTime ended, I was expecting to see Matt do an impression of you in your room 😂. That would be too much. Thanks for your great work and humor.
This was just brilliant. You're Matt O'Dowd is spot on. This just tickled me. Thank you so much for doing what you do. You really are amung the best on RUclips.
The sideways slide at 4.53 got my like and stopped me feeling grumpy at the idea of the universe in a larger infinite space which seemed at odds with some of Matt's wisdom.

I can’t give you an award but I can pay you a cup of coffee. This video made me give my first donation since RUclips was created. What you did here was absolutely awesome!
Brilliant! I almost didn’t watch it because I used to believe that every ‘split’ of one universe into two would require two universes worth of matter/energy. But this is a gem of a trip. I’m proud to be a patreon patron who helped enable Nick to do this full time!
Glad I could help clear things up. I only recently learned the local thing myself. It makes more sense that way. (I'm still not sold on the idea, but at least it sound less ridiculous now.)
Ahaha, that’s a perfect Matt impression, you got his eyebrow movements down too, that little triangle that forms when you furrow, I know you practiced that in the mirror a lot lol.
I thought cgp was gonna make a guest appearance but then the voice didnt change. Then he went to the next format and i had to check the description to see what was going on. Utterly brilliant.
The best part was the set of references to the other channels. You are awesome! The only one with such refined humor and knowledge at the same time. Thank you!
Awesome video! The concept of some infinities being larger than others is very cool and hard to wrap your head around :) As for multiverses, I like to think there is a version of me in some distant universe that still has a full head of hair :). Thanks for mentioning me at the end of the video!
I always though you were a genius but now you managed to take it to a whole next level! Brilliant video, man! Laughed from the beginning to the end! GENIUS NICK!
I've been watching all the other channels for years as well and i could not stop bursting xD You sir are a crazy(pun intended) genius for combining all this into an actual video with different "format", instead of just doing a 'silly' prank for the sake of it.
I told myself years ago that, if I was going to do an April Fools video, then it needed to be a video that I could upload any time of year but that is enhanced by being uploaded on April Fools day.
3:56 LOL I instantly noticed who this impersonated. Brilliant. There is only one person on this entire planet who does that exact hand gesture til the end of times. I did hope for an Anton Petrov parody, but we don't live in the proper timeline for that to happen.
As a fellow commenter down below said, I didn't get the joke till the PBS spacetime style. Truly brilliant impersonations :) And again, such a great video. This is the first explanation on the multiverse I have seen that lifts it out of the realm of philosophy/weird stuff and puts some real down-to-earth science into it. And I loved the explanation of cosmic inflation - so clear! Thanks a bunch! 😊😊

I'm waiting for the comment from Matt on this video.
fantastic video, I follow all the other channels you mentioned in the video and chuckled a couple times. Amazing video you just dropped out of nowhere.
Outstanding! I admit it took me a bit to catch on the first time but definitely got me to watch a couple times more to appreciate it. Great use of parody that only enhances the subject matter at hand. Speaking of ... I'm sure there are versions of your parody personalities in other multi-universes who would be like, wait .... what's the joke? That's me!
Thanks! I've been watching them a long time. (Over the last few years, I've become friends with Matt, Michael, and Arvin. They all got advanced warning I was making this video and were cool with it 👍.)
By far the most enjoyably-clever April Fools video I’ve seen. I only truly understood the concept of the joke when I noticed that it wasn’t actually Matt from PBS Space Time who was telling me about these three multiverse types.
Giordano Bruno: “God is above the multiverse.” The Pope: “You believe in a multiverse? Blasphemy.” Giordano: “You think God is incapable of a multiverse? Sounds pretty heretical to suggest he isn’t almighty. 🤨”
Hahaha brilliant impressions! Not only a genius, but a surprisingly good actor too. You really nailed the mannerisms of each of these glorious presenters, to the point I noticed habits of theirs consciously for the first time while watching you imitate them! I actually had to watch this whole video twice. The first time I was listening to audio only, till I recognised the Vsauce music and pulled phone out my pocket to see what was going on XD
Fascinating video! It inspired me to share an interpretation I've been pondering regarding quantum superposition and multiverse theory. Consider this: what if observation only determines our "perspective" of an event without altering the event itself? Imagine being blindfolded and taken to a building in the city. Once the blindfold is removed, you might see the building from the front, back, or side. The building's other facets haven't disappeared; they're simply out of your field of view. This analogy suggests that all superpositions are potential perspectives that exist simultaneously, overlapping in a way that doesn't require extra universes or the constant creation/destruction of realities based on observation. I resonate with the notion that these perspectives are local, not universal. It underscores that observing an event doesn't change the fundamental nature of reality. Instead of viewing this through a three-dimensional lens, it's more akin to a quantum perspective-where all possibilities coexist even after a specific observation is made, only locking us into a given observational frame. This quantum viewpoint allows for a rich tapestry of realities, each as valid and real as the next, without directly influencing one another. Furthermore, there is no requirement for multiple observers to share the same perspective. Observers are likely to share narrowly adjacent perspectives of the same event, highlighting the individuality of perception and the subjective nature of reality within the quantum framework. Consider the analogy of a two-dimensional observer encountering a three-dimensional cube. From their plane, the cube's appearance might shift between a square, a hexagon, or a diamond, among other shapes, depending on the angle of observation. To the two-dimensional observer, the cube's shape seems to fluctuate unpredictably, giving an illusion of randomness. However, from a three-dimensional perspective, it's clear that these are not random variations but different facets of the same object. Similarly, quantum events may appear probabilistic to us due to our limited perspective, but this doesn't imply inherent randomness in the quantum realm itself. Rather, our observations reflect only a slice of a larger, deterministic structure that we are not fully equipped to perceive. These differing perspectives offer an intriguing parallel to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, suggesting that precise measurements-even from multiple sources-will not converge on the same quantum perspective, not because of inherent randomness but due to our dimensional limitations in observing the full quantum landscape.
As a person who watches entirely too much science/education youtube, I have to say this was impressive, everything was pitch perfect.
Thanks!
100%
With smaller Plank constant everything becomes possible because of lower energy barriers - check "Planck's Constant Was Smaller In Early Universe".

I like the arvin ash the most
Arvin liked it the most too.
This video deserves multiversal acclaim.
I always though you were a genius but now you managed to take it to a whole next level! Brilliant video, man! Laughed from the beginning to the end! GENIUS NICK!
This is amazing, you nailed all the impressions! The effort you put in your videos is outstanding ✨
Thank you! 🤓
I've been watching all the other channels for years as well and i could not stop bursting xD
You sir are a crazy(pun intended) genius for combining all this into an actual video with different "format", instead of just doing a 'silly' prank for the sake of it.
I told myself years ago that, if I was going to do an April Fools video, then it needed to be a video that I could upload any time of year but that is enhanced by being uploaded on April Fools day.
3:56 LOL I instantly noticed who this impersonated. Brilliant.
There is only one person on this entire planet who does that exact hand gesture til the end of times.
I did hope for an Anton Petrov parody, but we don't live in the proper timeline for that to happen.
This has been so fun to watch! Such quirkily brilliant fun! Thank you so much that you exist in this universe!
As a fellow commenter down below said, I didn't get the joke till the PBS spacetime style. Truly brilliant impersonations :) And again, such a great video. This is the first explanation on the multiverse I have seen that lifts it out of the realm of philosophy/weird stuff and puts some real down-to-earth science into it. And I loved the explanation of cosmic inflation - so clear! Thanks a bunch! 😊😊
I'm waiting for the comment from Matt on this video.
I gave Matt some warning that I was doing this, so he shouldn't be blind sided. 😆
This was so good, really. Loved all the impressions. Bravo on the concept and bravo again on the execution.
The vsauce bit was the funniest to me. Michael definitely has a certain way of presenting the script for the video.
fantastic video, I follow all the other channels you mentioned in the video and chuckled a couple times. Amazing video you just dropped out of nowhere.
Outstanding! I admit it took me a bit to catch on the first time but definitely got me to watch a couple times more to appreciate it. Great use of parody that only enhances the subject matter at hand. Speaking of ... I'm sure there are versions of your parody personalities in other multi-universes who would be like, wait .... what's the joke? That's me!
Great episode and very creative. I loved all the embedded references, hilarious and informative. Thanks!
I can't stop laughing after PBS impression 🤣
Wow you even pulled off Matt's "I don't blink, I only jumpcut" style. Just great attention to detail.
Thanks for another amazing video.
Thanks! I've been watching them a long time. (Over the last few years, I've become friends with Matt, Michael, and Arvin. They all got advanced warning I was making this video and were cool with it 👍.)
Matt's hand posture was priceless!!! Thank you for this!!
i lost it on the numberphile one. superb job. congo
Thanks! I had fun with this one.
Fantastic. Made me LOL. Can't imagine how much effort you must have put in to this whilst keeping a straight face. Thanks
The bloopers on this video are epic.
@@ScienceAsylum SHARE please!! 😂
Yes!!! Bloopers!
Well done! I saw at least 4 or 5 of my favorite RUclips channels impersonated... including YOURS! LOL🤣
the transition to other scintific channels is so awsome
The Arvin Ash homage was brilliant😂, keep up the good work
Damn that PBS spacetime had me laughing. At first I thought 'but what about the hands?' then sure enough you started in with the hand gestures 😁
😆😆
This was such a fun video, and I learned some stuff, too. Thank you once again!
By far the most enjoyably-clever April Fools video I’ve seen. I only truly understood the concept of the joke when I noticed that it wasn’t actually Matt from PBS Space Time who was telling me about these three multiverse types.
Giordano Bruno: “God is above the multiverse.”
The Pope: “You believe in a multiverse? Blasphemy.”
Giordano: “You think God is incapable of a multiverse? Sounds pretty heretical to suggest he isn’t almighty. 🤨”
OMG!! 🤣 You hosting Space Time In a different universe was hysterical!!
multiverse is an insane concept, and to think it just arises from the concept of one equation...
which is ONE interpretation, out of many others!
Hahaha brilliant impressions! Not only a genius, but a surprisingly good actor too. You really nailed the mannerisms of each of these glorious presenters, to the point I noticed habits of theirs consciously for the first time while watching you imitate them!
I actually had to watch this whole video twice. The first time I was listening to audio only, till I recognised the Vsauce music and pulled phone out my pocket to see what was going on XD
Hahah the writing is hilarious here Nick, great one! Your take on Matt (PBS) is so cute, you need beard though 😃
It would have been epic to grown out a beard for the Matt and Michael segments, but I can't actually grow a beard anymore.
@@ScienceAsylum but you nailed them.. perhaps those are their multiverse versions 😉
How could You forget Sliders! Sliding between multiverses is literally the whole entire series, not just an episode or trope.
Fascinating video! It inspired me to share an interpretation I've been pondering regarding quantum superposition and multiverse theory. Consider this: what if observation only determines our "perspective" of an event without altering the event itself? Imagine being blindfolded and taken to a building in the city. Once the blindfold is removed, you might see the building from the front, back, or side. The building's other facets haven't disappeared; they're simply out of your field of view. This analogy suggests that all superpositions are potential perspectives that exist simultaneously, overlapping in a way that doesn't require extra universes or the constant creation/destruction of realities based on observation.
I resonate with the notion that these perspectives are local, not universal. It underscores that observing an event doesn't change the fundamental nature of reality. Instead of viewing this through a three-dimensional lens, it's more akin to a quantum perspective-where all possibilities coexist even after a specific observation is made, only locking us into a given observational frame. This quantum viewpoint allows for a rich tapestry of realities, each as valid and real as the next, without directly influencing one another.
Furthermore, there is no requirement for multiple observers to share the same perspective. Observers are likely to share narrowly adjacent perspectives of the same event, highlighting the individuality of perception and the subjective nature of reality within the quantum framework. Consider the analogy of a two-dimensional observer encountering a three-dimensional cube. From their plane, the cube's appearance might shift between a square, a hexagon, or a diamond, among other shapes, depending on the angle of observation. To the two-dimensional observer, the cube's shape seems to fluctuate unpredictably, giving an illusion of randomness.
However, from a three-dimensional perspective, it's clear that these are not random variations but different facets of the same object. Similarly, quantum events may appear probabilistic to us due to our limited perspective, but this doesn't imply inherent randomness in the quantum realm itself. Rather, our observations reflect only a slice of a larger, deterministic structure that we are not fully equipped to perceive. These differing perspectives offer an intriguing parallel to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, suggesting that precise measurements-even from multiple sources-will not converge on the same quantum perspective, not because of inherent randomness but due to our dimensional limitations in observing the full quantum landscape.
