      +Alex24757 I can't get enough of this guy. Actually bought a Klein bottle off him and made the mistake of filling it with wine. Really hard to clean, even with a magnet. Just noticed that the Mathologer channel also just posted a video on cutting Klein bottles into crazy topological musical instruments. Not sure who is more eccentric.

    I’m a proud owner of one of this man’s klein bottles. I ordered one in 2012. This is still to this one one of my favorite items in my possession. The order confirmation I received was one of the best I ever received. Just made my day, with pictures of the klein bottle being packaged and carefully wrapped into bubblewrap. I have kept everything, the papers he sent with Acme literature, invoice, and topological propaganda (using his own words) and the little white package with a smiley glass written on it. I love my klein bottle !

      Unfortunately even great teachers or fun people like this guy can't make all parts of math (or any subject) interesting. When you're taking a 14 week 4 credit course or whatever, there's probably only gonna be a few classes worth of stuff that can be made as interesting as the math videos people watch for fun on CZcams. There's a whole lot of less interesting background info that's a lot more important to learn if you're actually going to use that level of math in some way

      sure you can, inhale through the bottom, modify it so it suits the mouth a bit more, pour water through it, drill a hole in the side, put the holder for the weed, and you got yourself an upside down klein bottle bong. The bend will have to be made as more of a pit so it holds the water without it acting like a straw I assume
