Cyberchase

let's go back the other way
0:11
I don't think so
0:14
what are we going to do
0:18
what was that
0:22
so is the green one
0:23
cool
0:24
if they keep growing we can write them all the way up to the top and get away
0:28
but which one do we get on
0:30
the green one of the orange one
0:34
the one that's faster
0:35
how do we figure that out look
0:38
these marks are in even layers
0:40
like a ruler
0:41
we can count how many layers each stump grows in the same period of time
0:46
I get it
0:47
you can't time I'll count the layers
0:50
okay
0:51
ready
0:53
now
0:53
one cyberspace
0:55
to cyberspace
0:56
the orange duck
0:57
one layer and two seconds
1:00
but the green stump root 2 layers in the same time
1:03
that's twice as fast
1:05
that green expressjs now leaving the stage
1:13
first Clark
1:14
toys computers second floor shoes raincoats that cut it out this is serious
1:23
they catch it up to us
1:25
no way
1:26
both stumps are growing at a steady rate
1:28
but ours is growing faster
1:30
in this is right
1:31
we're ahead and we're going to stay ahead
1:34
looks like there's about 30 more layers to go
1:37
and out one layer each second
1:39
we'll be safe in about 30 seconds
1:43
it is
2:01
this is not good
2:09
I can't hang on much longer
2:20
we're safe
