0:16 oh, THAT's what the thumbnail pic didn't mention They TELL you how many are heads and how many are tails That one detail changes it from impossible to not-so-difficult

Aaaargh This is a generalized version of a card trickbrSplit a 32 card deck in half (16 and 16), the number of black cards in one pile will equal the number of red cards in the otherbrDidn't know you could generalize, but of course you canbrClever

For those who have trouble seeing how they could have figured this out, here's a good strategy Try changing the problem a little to make it easier What if there had only been one coin instead of 30? I think in this case it's easier to see that picking a random coin and flipping it would give the desired result

I think I read a variation of this in a book about Rodolfo (a Hungarian magican)

I've got a solution for the case without given amount of tails: divide each coin in half, and turn one half upside down This will break the coins, but this will guarantee that we will have equal amount of tails and heads

"MaThEmAtIcS iS sCiEnCe" how can some people still say that, when this video clearly proves that it is actually witchcraft?

Solving this puzzle is one thing, but how do people come up with this?!
Comment from : @agargamer6759

Thanks for not only mathematically proving it, but also giving an intuitive answer for bwhy/b it works that way Fantastic vids
Comment from : @littlefish9825

I read the title and knew what puzzle this was referring to! Still, the additional perspective at the end was awesome! :)
Comment from : @MathNerd1729

okay but licking the coins is still a valid strategy: while your fingers might not be sensitive enough to discern whether a coin side is heads or tails the tongue can, with a little training Of course the maths solution is easier here, so using that would be faster, but also less funny
