Transcript
00:00 Albert Einstein, Nikola Tesla, Mary Curie, Leonardo da Vinci.
00:05 Think about all these people, what did they have in common?
00:08 Aside from the fact that they changed the world with their inventions, discoveries,
00:11 and art.
00:12 They all had high IQs and were extremely smart and creative.
00:18 But you don't need to be a scientist, an artist, a mathematician, or a chess player
00:22 to have a high IQ.
00:23 And vice versa, if you're one of those, it doesn't necessarily mean that you have
00:27 a high IQ.
00:28 IQ stands for Intelligence Quotient.
00:31 To put it simply, it's the score that indicates how well you use your logic and reasoning
00:36 skills and how fast you process information.
00:40 But keep in mind that there are many different types of intelligence, from emotional to bodily
00:44 kinesthetic, and an IQ test can only measure one of them.
00:50 And now, are you ready to check your IQ score?
00:53 There are 20 questions in this test and you have 7 seconds to answer each of them.
00:58 For every correct answer, you get 1 point.
01:01 Don't forget to count your score and share your results in the comments at the end of
01:05 the video!
01:06 Are you ready?
01:07 Then let's begin!
01:09 Question 1.
01:10 How many 2's appear between 1 and 100?
01:14 A. 10 B. 20
01:17 C. 12 D. 11
01:20 The correct answer is 20.
01:31 If your answer was right, kudos to you!
01:34 But if it was incorrect, then you might have forgotten about the 2's in 21, 22, 23.
01:39 I'm sure you got it!
01:42 Question 2.
01:43 Take a look at this sequence.
01:44 What number comes next?
01:46 A. 44 B. 16
01:50 C. 56 D. 64
02:03 In this sequence, each number is greater than the previous one.
02:06 It means that the number you're looking for also needs to be greater than 32.
02:10 So the sequence goes like this.
02:18 And the correct answer is 44.
02:21 Question 3.
02:22 What day will it be tomorrow if Wednesday was 3 days ago?
02:34 The correct answer is Sunday.
02:39 Question 4.
02:40 What number is the quarter of two-thirds of 9,000?
02:43 A. 2,000 B. 3,000
02:46 C. 1,500 D. 1,000
02:59 The correct answer is C.
03:02 Question 5.
03:03 What number should come next in this sequence?
03:06 A. 7 B. 18
03:09 C. 27 D. 26
03:22 Take a look at the first, third, fifth, and seventh numbers first.
03:26 They decreased by 1.
03:28 On the other hand, the second, fourth, and sixth numbers increased by 1.
03:32 The number you're looking for belongs to the second group since it's going to be the
03:36 eighth number.
03:37 And what comes after 25?
03:39 26.
03:40 So the correct answer is D.
03:43 Question 6.
03:45 Which word is the odd one?
03:47 A. Index B. Glossary
03:50 C. Book D. Chapter
04:02 The word "book" is the different one because the rest of the words are all part of a book.
04:08 Question 7.
04:09 If "thing" turns into "night," what does 75120 turn into?
04:16 A. 21057 B. 51270
04:22 C. 17052 D. 70521
04:37 To solve this riddle, you need to figure out the relationship between the word "thing"
04:41 and the number 75120.
04:44 Once you do that, you'll realize that a particular letter corresponds to a certain number, so
04:50 T is connected with 7, H with 5, I with 1, N with 2, and G with 0.
04:59 Now, arrange these numbers according to the order of the letters in the word "night."
05:04 You'll get 21057, so the correct answer is A.
05:11 Question 8.
05:12 How many triangles are there in this picture?
05:16 A. 10 B. 13
05:20 C. 17 D. 12
05:32 The correct answer is 13.
05:36 Question 9.
05:37 Which shape is different from the others?
05:48 The correct answer is C because all the other shapes have 8 sides while this one only has
05:53 6.
05:55 Question 10.
05:56 Which word would be the third if you put them in alphabetical order?
06:00 A. Thread B. Thrice
06:04 C. Thrill D. Thrive
06:16 The correct answer is C.
06:19 Question 11.
06:20 A dress and a belt cost $830 in total.
06:25 The dress is $720 more expensive than the belt.
06:29 How much does the dress cost?
06:32 A. 775 B. 740
06:37 C. 360 D. 715
06:50 The correct answer is A.
06:54 Question 12.
06:55 What number is the next in this sequence?
06:58 A. 22 B. 17
07:01 C. 21 D. 19
07:14 Each number is the sum of the two numbers that comes before.
07:17 When you add 8 to 13, you get 21.
07:21 So the correct answer is C.
07:24 Question 13.
07:26 What is the number you need?
07:30 A. 5 B. 2
07:33 C. 1 D. 6
07:45 Do you see the two squares?
07:48 The sum of the numbers in their corners needs to equal 17.
07:52 So that makes 2 the correct answer.
07:56 Question 14.
07:57 What is the finished cube going to look like?
08:09 The correct answer is C.
08:13 Question 15.
08:14 Which word is the odd one?
08:16 A. Sadness B. Fondness
08:19 C. Happiness D. Hope
08:31 The correct answer is Sadness since it's considered to be a negative emotion while
08:35 the rest of them are positive feelings.
08:40 Question 16.
08:41 Kate, Joanna, and Natalie are three sisters.
08:44 If the following statements are all true, which of them is the youngest?
08:49 Kate is the oldest.
08:50 Natalie is not the oldest.
08:53 Joanna is not the youngest.
08:55 A. Joanna B. Kate
08:58 C. Natalie D. Both Joanna and Natalie
09:12 The answer is Natalie.
09:15 Question 17.
09:16 Here are two statements.
09:18 All men are kings.
09:21 All kings have golden crowns.
09:24 And here are two conclusions.
09:27 All men have golden crowns.
09:30 All kings are men.
09:32 Which of the following is the correct answer?
09:35 A. Only conclusion 1.
09:38 B. Only conclusion 2.
09:41 C. Either 1 or 2.
09:43 D. Neither 1 nor 2.
09:46 E. Both 1 and 2.
09:58 The correct answer is D.
10:01 Question 18.
10:02 What is the result?
10:04 A. 6 B. 9
10:20 C. 8 D. 4
10:21 The correct answer is A.
10:22 Question 19.
10:24 What number comes next in the sequence?
10:26 A. 47 B. 594
10:31 C. 374 D. 35
10:44 In this sequence, a two-digit number is followed by a three-digit one and vice versa.
10:49 So, the number you're looking for has to consist of three digits, as the one that comes
10:53 before is a two-digit number, and the formula for this sequence of numbers looks like this.
10:59 So what you have to do is multiply 54 by 11.
11:03 That makes B the correct answer.
11:07 Question 20.
11:08 Identify the shape that continues the sequence.
11:19 The correct answer is B.
11:20 Congratulations!
11:21 You've completed the test!
11:24 Hope you remember your score.
11:26 Here are the results.
11:28 If you answered 0 to 6 questions correctly, you might need to practice more to improve
11:32 your logical reasoning skills.
11:34 To do that, you can solve such puzzles as Sudoku and play chess and card games.
11:39 Those are not only fun to play, but they can also improve your focus.
11:43 Even learning something new, like a foreign language or taking up a new hobby will help
11:48 you get a higher score next time.
11:50 If you answered 6 to 12 questions correctly, you're definitely not alone.
11:54 This is the score the majority of people get.
11:57 But this shouldn't encourage you to relax and do nothing.
11:59 There's still room for improvement.
12:01 If you want to get a higher score next time, here are a couple of things you can do.
12:06 Try to observe and recognize patterns in everyday things.
12:10 Even simply searching for them will help you to improve your focus.
12:13 Speaking of which, meditate!
12:16 This will help you manage your stress, and when you can stay calm under pressure, nothing
12:20 can stop you from being able to focus on the task at hand.
12:24 Read mystery books or watch mystery movies.
12:28 If you answered 12 to 17 questions correctly, you're a gifted person who has superior
12:32 logical thinking and reasoning abilities.
12:36 You can recognize patterns easily, you're good with numbers, when given different sources
12:40 of information, you can make connections between them.
12:43 And you have strong visualization skills.
12:46 Go you!
12:47 If you answered 18 to 20 questions correctly, hats off to you!
12:52 You can go ahead and proudly take your place among the geniuses of this world.
12:58 Design shapes the world around us.
13:01 The chair you're sitting on while watching this was carefully thought out by a designer.
13:07 The same goes with the table where your smartphone is right now.
13:11 Some designs are just so ingenious, we can't help but be mesmerized by them.
13:16 From simple to complex, let's have a look at some of them.
13:21 Do you organize your bookshelf by genre, alphabetical order, or the color of book covers?
13:27 I think alphabetical order gives your house a library vibe to it, even if you use these
13:32 small branched shelves.
13:35 Usually authors only put their last names on the book spine to make it easier for users
13:39 to locate the book.
13:41 But the designer of this Ray Bradbury book had a clever idea.
13:45 He noticed that the name Ray is contained by the last name Bradbury and painted the
13:50 letter R, A, and Y in different colors on the spine.
13:55 This way, both the first and last name of the author are highlighted.
13:59 What do you say, yay or nay?
14:02 And speaking of books, this George Orwell work has sold over 4 million copies!
14:08 The famous 1984 story tells a tale of surveillance and the creepiness of being constantly watched
14:14 by a so-called "big brother."
14:17 I'd say this cover pretty much nails the content of the book in a genius way, and it
14:22 even references literature as a medium with the use of semicolons.
14:26 Way to go to this designer!
14:29 If you haven't been living under a rock, you've heard once or twice about Van Gogh's
14:34 story.
14:35 No need to retell it here.
14:37 Apparently, this designer that was showcased at the gift shop of a Van Gogh immersive experience
14:42 got inspired by the artist's story.
14:44 I mean, look at this set of mugs!
14:47 Would you give this to your beloved so that one of you can be the ear and the other the
14:52 bandage?
14:53 I'm not so sure if you ask me.
14:55 I think I prefer just a regular Van Gogh mug with his face on it.
15:00 What do clocks make you think of?
15:03 Perhaps your mind goes straight to your grandma's cuckoo clock like mine does.
15:07 I'd never say Bruce Lee would be a good idea for a clock.
15:11 This designer thought legs + Bruce Lee + elasticity = clockwork.
15:16 Just kidding.
15:17 I mean, it works for certain timestamps, but not all.
15:21 Definitely not all.
15:24 Design can also be used as a tool for raising awareness.
15:27 There are so many examples of great marketing campaigns, but I'd say this one was pretty
15:32 ingenious.
15:34 Take a look at it before I give you any context.
15:37 Can you guess what it's raising awareness for?
15:40 Do the repeating first syllables give you any hint?
15:44 This was an ad to fight discrimination against people who stutter made by the Dutch Stutter
15:48 Foundation in 2021.
15:51 Neat, huh?
15:54 In the queue for the best billboard award is this piece of advertisement for BBC's
15:59 adaptation of Dracula.
16:01 You know what they say, vampires don't like to appear in broad daylight.
16:05 So these designers used natural light in their favor.
16:09 As the sun goes down and the moon shines in the sky, we begin to see a shadow forming.
16:14 And you guessed it, the shade of Dracula's face appears.
16:18 I mean, wow!
16:20 Shopping for stationery brings out the inner child in all of us.
16:24 Pens, pencils, erasers, we love 'em.
16:28 But what about this designer's idea to turn a regular eraser into Mount Fuji?
16:33 The best part is that it's interactive.
16:36 If you only use the sides, your eraser will turn into this beautiful mountain in no time.
16:43 I know you have to be smart to play chess, but this designer edition set makes it seem
16:48 even more difficult.
16:50 In 1923, designer Joseph Hartwig came up with the Bauhaus chess set.
16:55 Here, no horse looks like a horse and no queen is wearing a crown.
17:00 Instead, the wooden pieces were designed to showcase the directions they can move in during
17:05 a game.
17:06 It's not 100% accurate though.
17:09 Pawns can only move forward, and they're represented by a rectangle.
17:13 What's that supposed to mean?
17:15 We're entering the age of smart stuff.
17:19 Smart TVs, smart cars, and refrigerators.
17:22 But this is the first time we've seen a smart business card.
17:26 If you're a divorce lawyer, maybe follow this guy's idea.
17:30 Prefabricate your card in such a way that you can already split it in half.
17:35 Half for one spouse and half for another.
17:38 And both parts still have your phone numbers on them, just to make sure you'll get one
17:42 of them to be your client.
17:45 In a certain gallery, there's a skate shop that is next to a steak shop.
17:49 I'm unsure who thought of this solution, but it kinda works.
17:53 It's a meaty skateboard.
17:55 Sure, it's weird.
17:57 But kudos to whoever dared to even think of this!
18:00 Ok, so help me out here.
18:02 Is there such a thing as a bad design?
18:05 And would you say this street sign qualifies as an example?
18:09 Users seem to think it's too visually polluted.
18:13 Others didn't even understand what it was advocating for.
18:16 It's a pro bike sign, by the way.
18:18 I have to say, I like this person's idea.
18:21 But in practice, I'd say it didn't work.
18:26 Artisanism was a period of art history where painters used soft brush strokes to depict
18:30 their subjects.
18:32 Looking at it from a distance, you might think it's a bit pixelated.
18:36 But this eyewear brand took this idea to another level.
18:40 Apparently, if you use their glasses, you'll see paintings through a whole new lens.
18:46 Clever, huh?
18:48 And speaking of art, I'd say it probably took the designer of this poster a while to
18:53 create this one.
18:54 "Everything, Everywhere, and All at Once" is one of those movies that makes your brain
18:58 work hard to follow the plot, and the characters, and all the colors.
19:04 I'd say this designer managed to bring the essence of the movie to life.
19:07 What about you?
19:09 Ok, so only a few things are more boring than drain pipes.
19:13 Aesthetically, of course.
19:16 Their design is usually simple and repetitive, except that during the 19th century, architects
19:21 were probably addicted to dragons.
19:24 So they made a bunch of buildings with drain pipes like this.
19:28 You'll see a lot of this if you're visiting France.
19:31 And I have to say, they're awesome.
19:33 Harry Potter fans, how do you feel about a night lamp in the shape of the Hogwarts crest
19:39 that comes with a remote control wand?
19:42 I think my favorite part is the wand.
19:44 I always wanted one of those.
19:46 Way to go to whoever came up with this ingenious idea.
19:50 A knife holder that looks like a white shark ready to attack its prey.
19:54 Yep, this exists.
19:56 And it's pretty clever.
19:57 I mean, the knives coordinate perfectly to look like a shark's open jaw.
20:02 Plus, the design is cute.
20:04 It's a yay for me.
20:08 If you've loved the Red Hot Chili Peppers before, you'll love them even more now.
20:12 Their logo is a famous red star, as you may know.
20:16 And apparently, for their concert in Perth, Australia, the ticket included transportation
20:20 to and from the concert venue.
20:23 So the designer used the red star symbol as roads to advertise this piece of information.
20:29 One of those lovely cases where art and music meet real life and rock it.
20:36 One of the basic rules of marketing is, you gotta know your public.
20:40 I'm guessing this mattress ad wouldn't work just about anywhere in the world.
20:44 But boy does it fit perfectly in Colorado.
20:47 In case you didn't catch the reference, fresh snow is often called powder snow.
20:53 And you have to have a good night's sleep to enjoy that.
20:57 In a galaxy far, far away, just kidding.
21:00 In our very own galaxy, Volkswagen invented one of the most beloved cars of all time,
21:05 the Beetle.
21:07 And who knew this version looks exactly like Darth Vader?
21:11 Poor Luke though, he'll have to keep seeing his father's face everywhere.
21:15 So do you know any other genius designs we haven't shown here?
21:19 Do tell!
