Did The Future Already Happen? - The Paradox of Time

Watching Kurzgesagt's "The Egg" video, you end up believing in the "Ice block Universe" in which all is fated.
Free will still exists though, it was used to the beginning, before the Big Bang, when Child-Universe was painting all the frames.

Kurzgesagt:"...The past is what happened before, now it's gone. The future is still to come and hasn't been drawn yet."
Me: I remembered DHMIS...
Kurzgesagt:"...The past is far behind us, the future doesn't exist."
Me: 😃

I'm writing this comment because it was written I will do so in future, or did I? Or maybe it was written I will think that I write it, or maybe I was able to control the future and expand this comment, yeah that was insane to watch

O passarinho verde parece uma rola kkskksksksk. Não é possível.

I no no wanna :(
This hurt brain 🧠 brain is tired 😔

I missed the bus watching this.... Uncomfortably surreal

Could you please make a video on why you claim that Quantum Physics is impredictible in nature? I feel like its just a lack of tools/info from humans. How do we know that there arent dimensions we cannot measure that help predict quantum fluctuations?
Thank you, big fan of your videos!

Time to rewatch Arrival.

In my mind there is also another way of including quantum theory into the block theory. If some event is not certain, the is maybe an universe block where it happens now, one where it happens tomorrow and so on. So basically many worlds theory but in my had I see from each layer of the universe block infinitely many new universe blocks are emerging like spaghettis. I call it many spaghetti theory

Don't.

Who else is laughing maniacally while watching this?

As always a great explanation of the universe and time itself! Thank you Kurzgesagt for providing scientific content for us!

My dumbass can't understand a thing in the video 😭
Great visuals tho :)

"The universe is" you're kind of picturing God... yep, its never mentioned like "I exist" its always "I am" this paradox foresees a knowledge that has been discovered centuries ago, if not more.

Never thought I would see a Space Dandy reference in these videos

Vid sugestion:N-body physics

What if the block is not Ice but Jell-O, so the block is not growing but vibrating and is changing all the time. Then, not only the top layer but every NOW is also messy and un-predictable at a quantum level. If that is true, maybe then the future can influence the past but time or more likely conscience only flows one way. This would also make crazy animations I would love to see.

Albrecht Entrati approves of this video.

"Now, aren't you about to miss your bus?"
Me, in the toilet at 18.48:

Oh man here we go again 🥴

The word decide is very loose here. You are the amalgamation of your experiences up til right now. And everything you’ve learned up til now informs your decision to leave on time for the bus or leave late. The interesting part about deciding is seeing what your outcome will be based on what you’ve learned so far. No you can’t change your future. But Yes, you have the power to “decide” your future.

But the observer that sees a future "Now" does not see our "Now" during the same time as we are living our current "Now". Therefore it all makes perfect sense that their "Now" is relatively on pause/extremely slowed down until our "Now" reaches the future "Now", giving us the time to create our own futures.

What about a butterfly effect?

You detailed exactly what I struggle to explain when I tell people that I’m not wholly convinced “free will” is even a thing.

Kurzgesagt testing out different thumbnail ideas? 🤨🤨

just like "Loki"

Your game is $170😔😔😔😔😞😞😭😭😭😭😭😭

"Frozen block of time" theory is already given in Hinduism scriptures and vedas

Looking forward to the lions-robots-lasergun arenas

This is the first video I really dislike... Rather than dislike, I guess more scared of... But it's not a nice feeling regardless.

fate

Yes

So technically we can talk to our past by talking to an alien that is talking to an other with another speed or angle.

It's just light moving through space. More closer, more futuristic. Farther away, more ancient. Just like if you look at the moon right now your seeing it a minute ago, if you look at the sun (without getting your eyes hurt) you are looking at it 8 minutes ago, if you see the andromeda galaxy your seeing it about 2.3 million years ago. (I think)

what?

Its kinda ironic because islam teaches as all about “qadar (القدر) ” which is basically the concept of the hole video. So there is nothing new here, qadar means that everything that happened, happening and will happen in the future for you is basically been wright down and you should believe that whatever will happen to you is a part of the god’s plans for you and all of this is just a test to prove yourself

Man this reminds me how good it is to believe in God and just wait to ask those questions in heaven. I don't need to question the entirety of my existence every single waking moment.... Even if I feel like I'm dreaming when I'm awake and feel like I'm awake while dreaming... Are you a butterfly dreaming that your human? Or a human dreaming that your a butterfly?... Yeah let's just get some coffee and go about our day

So.. the future is only unreal and unwritten, the first time.

This is the stuff I've been telling my therapist a couple times a month for nearly a year 😅

Uhhh Warframe? No? Ok...
Timeline confusing me

Am I a nerd? Yeah!
Do I care? Nope.

Absolute art ❤

The distinction between the past, present and future is an illusion.
Similar lines are also there in German series named dark

Theres an interesting theory behind this as a physical example. If you push a wooden plank that spans lightyears the moment you push it from one end will have a delay to the other (theres a chance this might have been from kurzgesagt already hehe). Its also interesting in scifi as a lot of fans theorizer quicksilvers ability isnt just superspeed but time dialation since time and space are relative and if he can speed up the space he occupies it only makes sense that it also means he affects the time around him.

I don't understand how anybody being unable to predict the decay of a radioactive element contradicts the idea that everything that has or ever exist and happen is static. Whether it decays today or a million years from now might be unpredictable but so is whether Tom will be hit by a bus in June 2036. Just because there's no way to predict it doesn't mean its not already set. So someone explain please
