The city has just opened its one-of-a-kind Faberge Egg Museum, with a single egg displayed on each floor of a 100-story building -- and the world’s most notorious jewel thief already has her eyes on the prize. Can you help the thief formulate a plan that will drop the most expensive egg she can get safely into her waiting truck? Yossi Elran shows how.

Just casually walking into the gift shop with my crime-suit on
If the security is non-tight enough that she could throw 14 fake eggs, she could've thrown 14 real eggs.
With this much wisdom, I suggest she applies a PHD on mathematics rather than a life of stealing eggs
I was thrown off when you said throwing too many eggs would catch the guard's attention, so I was thinking we had a max of 2-4 throws, but 14?! How is a guard not going to notice that?
The real riddle is this: how do the worthless replicas in the gift shop have the same level of endurance as the real deal if they're obviously made from different materials?
TedEd is teaching us how to steal. Quick, take notes.
my favorite part of the ted-ed riddles is the “don’t cheat” rule
It's easy. Just go to the egg with a guitar image on it, smash it to see it contains a harp, go to the egg with a harp image, etc etc, confirm you have green eyes, insert a blue egg, and drop 5 units of fuel at 8 parsecs.
Imagine the thief coming back to pick the egg every time she drop it.
You can have infinite tries if you knock out the guards by dropping the eggs on them.
*14 eggs drop*
City: let's build a 100 - floor building. And display just ONE EGG on every floor.
In theory terminal velocity of a falling object can be achieved at about 167 metres equivalent to roughly 54 floors. Technically A fall from 100 floor and 55th floor makes no difference in impact. So if the egg survives at 60th floor you might as well pick the most valuable egg.
Step one: Go to the top floor
The real world application for the concepts discussed in this video is finding the right shower temprature while wasting the smallest amount of water possible.
throws egg at 14th floor
Thief: Throws 14 eggs out of the window.
This is a very well thought out museum let me say.
"Throwing too many eggs will cause suspicion among the guards"
