In this video, I explain the classic Monty Hall problem, based on the concept of the show Let’s Make a Deal. I explain the paradox behind the problem and demonstrate that it’s better to switch doors.
I’m not joking at all when I say it took me years of listening to explanations before it actually clicked. Some of it is my innate stubbornness, but I think this is a great example of a true paradox, where the intuitive answer is wrong and first-level reasoning also leads you astray.
