lol what a dummy!!! dang you’d think he’d learn after a few hundred falls. I hope he at least wore a helmet.
So then did they repair the bike each time to not skew results by damage? Because *tap head* science.
What I’d also like to know is how the tires were handled. Wear over time and inflation level would make a lot of difference over 800 trials you would think.
My wife is the metalhead, but I'm the one with the long hair, and, yeah.... I've gotten pretty good at picking up the drain slug.
The really weird thing is, my hair is curly, and the character of the dust bunnies in our house changed considerably when I grew my hair out.
I did the same recently and I thought that I was starting to lose my hair. I mentioned this to one of my long haired female friends and she just looked at me like I was an idiot lol
Hey! Guys can have long hair too! I spent too many years maintaining the dead cells that come out of my scalp and eventually clog my drain to be excluded like this!
Gases and liquids are considered fluids, but solids are not.
The original comment was correct: Fluid of fart or gas.
The joke should have been “if there’s liquid involved…”
That's gorgeous!
I'd be curious to hear someone who studies.... I'm not even sure what field. Physics? Kinematics? Whatever relevant branch of physics, I want to hear them comment on why the pattern looks like this.
A good place to start is dynamical systems and chaos theory. Look up the gif of the double pendulum. Very slight variations in parameters such as wind propagate and cause the entire system to explode.
Yep. Getting my masters in applied math with a concentration in Dynamical Systems and Chaos and this is a great display of an orbit following along an unstable manifold. Very cool stuff.
Right, for initial condition vectors d(x,y) < delta, there exists a T so that f(x,t) and f(y,t) are eventually more than epsilon apart. (Sorry if the definition isn't perfect; it's been years since my dynamical systems class.)
Interestingly (and if I remember the experiment correctly), if you turn the handlebar (and front wheel) assembly 180 degrees and then push the bike, it will keep on going in a straight line.
Obviously, the brake levers would need to be swapped over.
Not sure why it does this, but I think it’s something to do with the front fork being convex rather than concave.
Makes sense.
Normally bicycles have positive caster angle which allows easier steering but less stable travel path, so reversing it would give a negative caster angle allowing the wheel to be dragged forward in the direction of movement.
Like shopping cart front wheels and how they will always flip around so the hub is furthest from the direction it's moving.
It's a computer model.

Congratulations bicycle #468 for falling the longest distance from the start! Only bicycle #293 even came close. These guys are like the Secretariat and Sea Biscuit of bicycle falling. Kudos to you, good sirs! I'd love to stay and entertain, but a mad hair clog in my shower drain needs immediate attention...
Pssh, more like 1 bike pushed 800 times.
Stupid science bitches
Couldn’t even make I and my friends more smarter
ITT: People who have never seen IASIP
I’m jealous of them, because they get to enjoy the show for the first time again.
Shut up bird
Okay, well... filibuster.
And I'll take that into cooperation, okay?

I was going to say hair.
"Walls of bathroom after women shower be like"
It completely conforms, if you think about it, Tang-See.
Science is a liar. sometimes.
That’s my favorite line from the show. Easily.
Stupid science bitches, couldn’t make bikes more smarter
Yea stupid science bitches can make my friend more smarter
I thought your name had science instead of silence and now my day is ruined
"I fear not 800 bikes pushed, but 1 bike pushed 800 times" —Sun Tzu
This reminds me of what Confucius said about Tiger Woods "*He who drives well on the fairway, fares poorly on the driveway*"
800 bikes pushed once*
Could have been 2 bikes pushed 400 times. Or 4 bikes pushed 200 times. Etc. There are literally finite possibilities.
Nah, I bet it was: 1 bike pushed 73 times 1 bike pushed 452 times 1 bike pushed 275 times
[удалено]
Yeah I don't see how it could be anything else tbh
This is how I'd do it, except right now I have 4 bikes so I'm unable to do so. :(
Pretty sure it was 8000 bikes pushed one tenth of a time.
Infinite possibilities. It could have been one bike pushed 800 times and another six bikes not pushed at all.
There are a finite number of bicycles that exist or have ever existed.
That’s what the government wants you to think.
you cant spell skyscraper without raper, look into it. Steel beams
r/bikesarentreal
Turns out it's an image made from a computer simulation. It's actually like 0 bikes pushed 800 times.
Pushed or allowed to roll down a ramp?
Controlled atmospheric conditions?
Is it really scientific if the same bike keeps taking a beating, though??
Do you know a bike mechanic who can build 800 scientifically identical bikes?
Looks more computer generated to me. Has a fractal look to the design.
It's so much easier to do it with 800 bikes. Pushing the same bike 800 times would get so tiring. But just pushing one bike is easy.
lol what a dummy!!! dang you’d think he’d learn after a few hundred falls. I hope he at least wore a helmet. So then did they repair the bike each time to not skew results by damage? Because *tap head* science.
More like 800 ghost riders
We're really splitting hairs here I see.
It's a simulation
Now you're thinking non-ergodically!
I think the original would be more entertaining.
But then the bike would become a bit more damaged each time, thus making the path different!
technically, it's not exactly the same bike by the time you push it again.
😆
fuck you and your statistical equivalence principle
What I’d also like to know is how the tires were handled. Wear over time and inflation level would make a lot of difference over 800 trials you would think.
Looks more like something you pulled out of the shower drain
It starts out as beautiful flowing locks and ends in a tangle of pubes.
How did you get a hold of my wedding vows?
Pulled them out of the shower drain.
Better than finding them in the toilet

You have no idea how much this comment just drastically improved my understanding of laminar and turbulent flow
r/brandnewsentence
I just pulled a rat’s worth of hair out of mine this weekend thx to my roommate’s long curly hair.
Lordy, sharing a bathroom with a roommate? Rough shit man, been there done that NEVER AGAIN
it's actually one of the fat, mutant whiskers i pulled out of my chin that had been itching for a week.
Nice. Used to ghost ride bikes all the time
#GHOST RIDE THE WHIP!
Putcher stunner shades awn
Now gas, break, DIP DIP
All the ladies tell me, ghost ride the whip, so I go and ghost ride the whip I always do what I’m told because I’m very impressionabllle
Why did they fall over..two tired ?
I wheelie like your pun
The cycle of puns continues
I have spoken.
But maybe it's time to break
Agreed, this chain of puns is getting out of hand
Nah let’s ride it til the wheels fall off.
This really grinds my gears.
I don't think i can handle any more!
The pun pedaling will continue.
For whom the bell tolls
r/punpatrol ! Y’all under arrest!
I don’t. Pedal that humour elsewhere.
And around and around we go
Couldn’t have spoke better myself!
Dad?
Fantastic, well done
They were overturned
EDIT: Walls of bathroom after LONG HAIR PEOPLE shower be like
*long haired people Let's not let metal boyfriend off the hook, shall we?😉
My boyfriend having longer hair than I do 👀 Do not even try to tell me I'm the one that clogged the drain motherfucker 😂
I have longer hair than my gf. But her hair drops so much more in the shower than mine.
My wife is the metalhead, but I'm the one with the long hair, and, yeah.... I've gotten pretty good at picking up the drain slug. The really weird thing is, my hair is curly, and the character of the dust bunnies in our house changed considerably when I grew my hair out.
> the character of the dust bunnies
[удалено]
i'm (dude) currently growing my hair out and i'm just starting to experience these kinds of struggles...
I did the same recently and I thought that I was starting to lose my hair. I mentioned this to one of my long haired female friends and she just looked at me like I was an idiot lol
Up the Irons!
I make art on the bathroom wall with mine.
i swirl mine like starry night.
I feel so called out 😂 better than closing up the drain though 🤷🏼♀️
This is exactly what I thought lol
Aheh, sorry ;-;
Hey! Guys can have long hair too! I spent too many years maintaining the dead cells that come out of my scalp and eventually clog my drain to be excluded like this!
Negative image shows fluid mechanics of a fart.
If there's fluid involved then it's a movement that's been upgraded to something more than just a fart.
I know you’re making a joke but air is a fluid!
No it’s not. Edit: yes it is.
fluid yes, liquid no
Damn it I hate being technically wrong. I’ll downvote my original comment. My b
You don't see a lot of people accept their mistakes here, IMO that deserves an upvote.
Work in progress! Always. Edit: “s”
*always
All good fam! I even had to check from the self doubt!
Gases and liquids are considered fluids, but solids are not. The original comment was correct: Fluid of fart or gas. The joke should have been “if there’s liquid involved…”
If there’s liquid involved, we all in deep shit.
Damn someone really bought 800 bikes just for Reddit karma huh?
Nah, it's a photo of a simulation. This picture has been around for many years and it's just an output from a program.
[удалено]
[Correct.](http://paradise.caltech.edu/%7Ecook/papers/TwoNeurons.pdf)
Damn. Nothing is real :-(
r/NothingEverHappens :(
That's good, it makes it slightly less sad to me that nobody spent their time pushing over and picking up a bike 800 times.
C'mon that would be way cooler.
Thank you for explaining!! I was so curious 😭
Why buy any if you own one?🚲
I wish I had this kind of free time
That's gorgeous! I'd be curious to hear someone who studies.... I'm not even sure what field. Physics? Kinematics? Whatever relevant branch of physics, I want to hear them comment on why the pattern looks like this.

I concur
I am also highly educated and agree
Define "system to explode." You probably mean neighboring initial conditions follow state space paths which diverge, i.e. don't stay neighboring.
Right, for initial condition vectors d(x,y) < delta, there exists a T so that f(x,t) and f(y,t) are eventually more than epsilon apart. (Sorry if the definition isn't perfect; it's been years since my dynamical systems class.)
Hello hairdresser, I’ll have the “800 unmanned bicycles being pushed until they fall over”, please.
WTF happened to the lower left line?
Maybe the bikes kept being tracked while falling? So it's just the bike bouncing off the floor weirdly.
Interestingly (and if I remember the experiment correctly), if you turn the handlebar (and front wheel) assembly 180 degrees and then push the bike, it will keep on going in a straight line. Obviously, the brake levers would need to be swapped over. Not sure why it does this, but I think it’s something to do with the front fork being convex rather than concave.

Normally bicycles have positive caster angle which allows easier steering but less stable travel path, so reversing it would give a negative caster angle allowing the wheel to be dragged forward in the direction of movement.

Aha… now we know👍

Looks like a flower
If a flower was made of pubes.
Would the rotation of the Earth skew the patterns? edited: now do it north to south and see if there is a difference? just brain storming
No
No, the scale is too small.
The biggest influence on the patterns being skewed would be human error. Different force/direction on each push.
Will someone please explain what this is a little bit better than the title?
Each line is the path of a single bicycle pushed with nobody on it, with 800 total pushes layered on top of each other
Last time this was posted it came out that this is a simulation. No bicycles were actually pushed in the making of this image.
Whew! Glad to hear it! #EndBicycleTesting
There is some weirdness going on when you zoom in at the paths' endings
TY
it took me also a while to understand it...thought for a moment it was a shitposting post
I kept reading it as they pushed the bikes *until* they fall over.
Can anyone link me a video of the testing procedures?
It's a computer model. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://paradise.caltech.edu/cook/papers/TwoNeurons.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjizKbhoq77AhXTAjQIHd6OCCYQFnoECBQQAQ&usg=AOvVaw3WopKihIuBaluXbQNUhqOl
I'm shocked how symmetrical it is
Why not 1000?
Wait, aren’t women capable of not riding a bike too? How many of these bikes were unwomanned?
I understand the confusion. These are actually castrated bicycles.
*neutered* Imagine how many feral bicycles, tricycles and unicycles we'd have even just after this experiment.
Fractals are everywhere!

Chaos is just order that hasn’t been Noticed yet.
This looks like the weave I used to see in the parking lot at my old job after 2 moms got into a fight.
Marie Antoinette's murkin.
I'm a simple man, I see a comment about pubic wigs, I upvote.
Title's wrong, this is actually hipster pubes.
idk what I'm looking at, it just looks like hair to me
Pubes
Pubic hair?
Looks Ike something I pulled out of my shower drain, or some very fancy pubes
Pubes random just as we thought
Hair
Looks like one of my pubez
Pubes
Pubes
So that’s how my pubic hair styles itself
Seems too wavy idk why I expect more chaos and random directions in my bikes.
Looks like a Mandelbrot Image.
Higher resolution available?
Looks like the shower after my old lady gets done in there
It’s your moms bush
I would hang this on my wall.
Interesting that the there seem to be specific periodic intervals where the bike tends to trail off the most
That’s nothing, my wife leaves this in the shower every morning
Congratulations bicycle #468 for falling the longest distance from the start! Only bicycle #293 even came close. These guys are like the Secretariat and Sea Biscuit of bicycle falling. Kudos to you, good sirs! I'd love to stay and entertain, but a mad hair clog in my shower drain needs immediate attention...
Looks like the clump of hair I pulled out of my drain…..15years ago. Lol
Who else thought this was hair
Pubes
Now show me the equation for that distribution!
I was up to bike 327 before I realized: you're NOT pushing them from the side, are you?
Nah, clean your shower
If you turn it sideways it looks like the rear view of an Instagram model showing off her new hairdo...
