Help!
Ive watched this video 5 times. I'm still coming up with 4000. What am I doing wrong? And so the hell what if it was posted some time ago. Over a thousand people join Metacafe every single day. I've never seen it before and the thousands that joined yesterday haven't either

- Look Here :)
  The first number is 1000. Then 40. 1000 + 40 = 1040. + 1000 = 2040 = 30 = 2070 + 1000 = 3070 + 20 = 3090 + 10 = 3100. Not 4000.
  
  3090 + 10 = 4000?

- a yank are u sure
  this is a quote from what he has said about this vid clip for the description "yes, we call it maths outside the US" the key words being "out side the US" so he must not live in the US so he canot be a yank because yanks live in the USA not outside it. and if you havent noticed i have went into alot of detail to tel you this and its not to help u it is an actual insult to you. an insult is a statement that is intended to hurt someones feelings, this someone is you. you, are a dumb person who should live in the USA with the rest of the thick, fat cunts

LEARN TO SPELL BEFORE YOU POST THIS VERY EASY ADDITION

- Maths
  Please learn about the rest of the world before you make an assumption - the vast majority of the English speaking world and several other languages use maths as a contraction of mathematics.

It's called Math, not Maths
Good challenge. it's old, I got it correct but the misspelling was painful.

- no it's Maths
  It is called english because it is ENGLISH. english people say maths therefore it is maths! o and by the way there is no such thing as a 'british accent' however there is an american one

- Be reasonable
  I've happily acknowledged the US spelling here, so why can't you do the same? I've even put up a note in the description explaining what the majority of the world calls mathematics, so please don't just say i've mis-spelt the word.
