1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,110


2
00:00:02,110 --> 00:00:04,400
SPEAKER 1: Now let's have
a look at rolling the dice.

3
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:08,770
So in this puzzle, we have just this
set of dice, some of them colored, some

4
00:00:08,770 --> 00:00:11,860
of them not, and no
other context clues, so

5
00:00:11,860 --> 00:00:14,520
what are we possibly
going to do with them?

6
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,510
Well in this puzzle, the
trick is actually just

7
00:00:16,510 --> 00:00:19,600
to add up the pips
that we see on the dice

8
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,730
and make them correspond to something.

9
00:00:21,730 --> 00:00:25,375
So for example, this first row if
we add up 1 plus 2 plus 2 plus 4

10
00:00:25,375 --> 00:00:29,020
plus 5 plus 6, that is 20.

11
00:00:29,020 --> 00:00:31,360
And if we think about
what to do with that 20,

12
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:35,459
if we treat it as a letter of
the English alphabet, we get T.

13
00:00:35,459 --> 00:00:37,750
And similarly, if we do this
for all of the other rows,

14
00:00:37,750 --> 00:00:42,190
we get 21, 18, 14, 2, 12, 21, 5, and 19.

15
00:00:42,190 --> 00:00:48,100
And if will correspond those again
to letters, we get T-U-R-N-B-L-U-E-S,

16
00:00:48,100 --> 00:00:52,900
which is apparently an
admonishment to us to turn blues.

17
00:00:52,900 --> 00:00:55,767
And notice we have these blue dice here.

18
00:00:55,767 --> 00:00:58,600
Now you may know this about dice,
you may not, but if you take a die

19
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,990
and you flip it over, the two
sides will add up always to seven.

20
00:01:01,990 --> 00:01:05,440
So a six is always on the
opposite of a 1, 5 id always

21
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:09,660
on the opposite side of a 2, and a 3 is
always on the opposite side of a four.

22
00:01:09,660 --> 00:01:11,950
And so why don't we flip
all of the blue dice

23
00:01:11,950 --> 00:01:15,710
to their opposite sides, which
results in something like this.

24
00:01:15,710 --> 00:01:17,749
And now we can actually
take away the white dice

25
00:01:17,749 --> 00:01:19,540
and just leave ourselves
with the blue dice

26
00:01:19,540 --> 00:01:21,340
for the second part of this puzzle.

27
00:01:21,340 --> 00:01:26,156
Now let's repeat this process again
adding up the new values of the dice

28
00:01:26,156 --> 00:01:29,280
now that we have these flipped over
dice and only considering the blue one.

29
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,170
So if we add up 6 plus
5 plus 5 plus 3, that

30
00:01:32,170 --> 00:01:35,800
gives us 19 which
corresponds to the letter S.

31
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,609
And we can do this for all of the rows.

32
00:01:37,609 --> 00:01:39,400
And then if we convert
those to letters, we

33
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:43,082
get the letters that
spell out snake eyes.

34
00:01:43,082 --> 00:01:45,790
We're told that the answer to this
puzzle is, in fact, two words,

35
00:01:45,790 --> 00:01:48,850
and snake eyes is a term of--

36
00:01:48,850 --> 00:01:51,010
that you might find in dice rolling.

37
00:01:51,010 --> 00:01:54,180
And it was, of course,
the answer to this puzzle.
