I’m very grateful to mathematician Hugh Woodin, Professor of Philosophy and Mathematics at Harvard, for taking the time on multiple occasions to discuss this topic with me and help me wrap my (finite) head around it.
I’m also grateful to David Eisenbud, the Director of the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) and professor of mathematics at the University of California, Berkeley, for his help and for connecting me with Hugh Woodin.
And of course, big thanks to Brady Haran who created the “mile of pi” seen in this video and connected me with all these mathematicians in the first place. His channel, Numberphile, is superb: / numberphile

The seemingly random "post credits" scene was incredible. "Omega + one" indicates a number that is in order after the "last" of the natural numbers. Having that bit play AFTER the "end" of the video was absolutely genius and wonderfully creative.

Important note about the continuum hypothesis (CH): It's not just that it's unsolved, it's actually unsolvable. CH has been shown to be logically independent from the ZFC axioms of set theory - that is, you can show that CH is not a theorem of ZFC and that the negation of CH is also not a theorem of ZFC. This is ultimately a consequence of incompleteness - any set of axioms and system of proofs must contain propositions which are neither provable or disprovable

The beauty of math is that it invents tools that we don't need now, but MAY need hundreds of years form the now. The mathematician Euler did some finicky math hundreds of years ago and came to the conclusion that "the sum of all real numbers" was equal to "-1/12". It was a bizarre conclusion that he threw out... Now whenever a computer calculates infinity, we tell it to replace it with -1/12 and it works. Euler used math to invent a computer algorithm hundreds of years before computers even existed.

So 0=1 being there is not stating that 0=1 is a true statement. The hierarchy is shown in the order of the strength of the axioms. 0=1 is at the stop because it is so strong that it is inconsistent with our rules of math and therefore anything can be explained using it because at that point everything equals each other. It isn't a true axiom that is actually accepted it's just a cap on the strength of the axioms declaring the existence of larger cardinals. All other axioms lower than it and are weaker than it and, therefore, they remain consistent with math.

Sir Billius So, is it kind of like a math black hole, where there is so much matter that the laws start to shift?
I'm in tears (I exaggerated. Actually, better than in tears) and with thrills (shivers? I don't know English) each time I watch this video and the Theta is reached. Really big thanks to you, Michael, for having brought me joy, having brought me sense, after I discovered that atoms are not so tiny, galaxies not so big, the universe not so old (recent history is comparable with the history of life and Earth), that anything material is not surprising but that there are things, actual logical things (don't know how much this counts), that can go even way beyond what satisfies me, my hunger for the greatness and the epicness, and Sense. Sense of life to me is merely complexity. I discovered the magnitude if Graham's number and felt shocked. I discovered these "numbers" in the video, in respect to which Graham's is totally nothing (actually infinitesimal) just in comparison with the first one, the numeral infinite, aleph_0. I will take refuge in the ideal world. Mathematics, with its total rigor, the minimal starting points and its complexity, hasn't disappointed me much, yet.
Michael, i must thank you, enytime i have a test, i watch your videos and my head suddenly starts to hurt.

I watched this video a while back. Brings back good times.
3:27 written out I believe that would be [((10^10^100)!)^((10^10^100)^(10^10^100))]^2 x Graham’s Number (Sorry if some of the parentheses were redundant) Graham’s number alone is so big there literally isn’t enough space in the universe to write it out in any normal algebraic capacity. Even googolplex, as gigantic as it is, can be written pretty easily as 10^10^100. Graham’s number might as well just be infinity, but if it’s multiplied by all that, it would get even MORE incomprehensibly big somehow. Even that incomprehensible number Michael named, however, might as well be 0 compared to Aleph Null, which is just the first of a number of infinite infinities which go on forever just like the cardinal numbers did before them. My head hurts

I think a set of all naturals is N1 because you could divide N by N to get 1. Then 2^1 is 2. Multiply that by N again and that is N2.
There will be a finite number of atoms in the uni verse timeline there will be a practical biggest number in terms of the universe but to calculate it you would need to know 1. The approximate death date of the universe, and two the universes current size meaning that it is theoretically impossible to answer this question.

So is it not possible to reach the inaccessible number even using recursion. Because no matter how long you will use recursion to reach that number, it will still not get remotely close to θ. But i would argue that if the recursion is used ℵ0 time that you would probably reach it, right?

It's all about comparing the cardinality of sets of things. I know I ain't him, but you should look into intro set theory, and I have a couple notes from a real analysis class that touches on the whole "countable vs uncountable" sets. It's kinda dense, but if you get a good idea of sets, proof techniques, and generally the jargon / symbols, you should be alright.
Something cool to mention is that is that there are TWO infinite sets and 0 is a transfinite gateway keeping positive/negative omega times/power/root of whatever as the same set but anyone that disagrees, I am entitled to my opinion and same for you.
This literally, physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, chronologically, theoretically, socially, psychologically, metaphorically, and exactly hurt my brain.

So actually not thing bigger than infinity, just arranged differently. And to create a larger infinity we must "multiply" the two infinity together (create an infinite sequence arrangements with infinite elements in a spreadsheet format and reason that there is always an unlisted sequence arrangements). I personality don’t think we can even do that cause how can we list end less thing and arrange them end less time? Or just imagine? In fact, infinity is already INFINITE. Creating something larger than infinity is just a recognized concept that speaks to human imagination (although I think people still haven't imagined what exactly infinity is) but they still want to get over it.

That would NEVER happen! I know you didn't say this exact words, but that is the message you are giving. Please just get out of this mindset, and it may effect you in real life. And finally, comment back. I dare you. You will describe how, because I disagree with you, I am a terrible person and brain dead and retareded. But look. Think about it. It is extremely, EXTREMELY stupid! It would be like going into a court room and saying that, even if all the evidence is against a murderer: " You brain dead idiots! I think he is not guilty AND THEREFORE I AM RIGHT!" Again, that would never happen! Take a step back, and look at what you said. Same goes for the guy you were replying to! It's their opinion!

wait at 16:17 it shows omega to the omega to the omega, which is smaller than aleph one. but aleph one is 2 to the omega, since it’s the power set of aleph null. so how is 2 to the aleph null larger than aleph null to the aleph null?

Fun fact: In the Greek alphabet there is Οο (called omikron and means little o ) and Ωω (called omega and means large o ). The names were given to the characters probably because of their stress duration. Omega used to be stressed for longer than omikron, thus their stress mark was different too.
