“I spent 8yrs at university studying mathematics, and this is where it got me.” That got me 🤣
I know a lot of people will look at this and ask: "Why use a sausage? Why not just use a stylus?" And to me at least the obvious answer is: "Because it's just funnier to use a sausage."

Because of that I know now what else could work to control touchscreen...
fascinating series seen the first two, hoovers and microwave looking forward to the rest, so informative excellent presenter was never much good at science in school but this brings it all to life
:) THANKS MUCH for a bit of British Humour! :) WELL DONE and ALL the BEST! Cheers from across the Pond! :)
FYI (source = her Wiki page): Hannah Fry - (born 21 February 1984) is a British mathematician, author, and radio and television presenter. She is Professor in the Mathematics of Cities at the UCL Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis.
Love the Secret Genius Series - Series 2 seems to have less breaking of the Fourth Wall and asides which help to make it so engaging. Wonder if Hannah could do a remake/update of James Burke Connections? "Who doesn't love a bit of ginger?" when cooking gingerbread men in the Microwave episode - not sure if scripted but that was absolutely brilliant - the ad libs and occasional faux pas really make it. Looking forward to more episodes.
Her beauty made me click as I already knew how touchscreens worked but never thought about the Styrofoam balls bit. Amazing!!
WaaaaaaoooooooooooooooW your videos are so useful to the world! Luckily you're there!
Brilliant!
If anything you’ve made me laugh. Lmao😂😂😂❤
I love this woman ❤
Charming
Wow she’s beautiful and clever 😍
I use my nose sometimes, if my hands are full!
Giggity

This contravenes Facebook guidelines apparently 😂🤣😂
Struggling to not make a science mommy comment involving sausage ... either way ❤ science mommy ❤
I think Queen's final studio album with Freddie Mercury is one of their best in their catalogue. You dirty dirty people. Dirty!
And so is the aluminum foil!
Pretty sure the Koreans weren't using English bangers 😂

I don’t see why you cant just buy a cheap stylus. Also the ones with where you can hang on your keychain so it’s there with you when you need it. Just saying

Easier to get a fish sausage for less than a quid (about 70p) at any convenience store.
😂
Raise your hands and click here if you tried it at home.
this girl has no business being this cute and also being a good mathematician lol
I could watch this beautiful, smart, woman eat sausage all day.
Oh good, grease pencils. Couldn’t you just do talk to text instead?

@@joevictor53 The whole point of this video was to talk about the science behind it but I agree, there are lots of ways to do it.
I bet you’d look great in an Aran jumper
Wow she’s beautiful. (That was my second thought, the first was, “is that a sausage? She actually looks like a Carnivore advertising Meat 👀”
Either get touch screen gloves, or a stylus. Sure you can use a sausage for comedic effect but don't want my screen getting greasy thanks.

A Stylus might me a less greasy option.....
Channels as potato TV is not that Xenothreat. Well we know where sausage came from and they be our French. I'm sorry I don't see that too unless it's 4k. That's more than I could possibly have at home 2:34 and this mehanognomes ingenuity obviously means Arthas and the knights of the oval table. After unboxing this I soon be receiving anything with DPD or Omniva, well because this service was not here ten years ago. Can't have everything those Americans have in their movies.
