This is much better than their last video on the Riemann zeta function. I can't tell you how annoying it was to see so many people asking "how does 1+2+3...=-1/12 that makes no sense!?" shortly after it came out.
I like this guy, he explains it well (though I don't really get all of it).
we've been learning about complex numbers and the riemann function the last few weeks, and it's quite refreshing to see a good video about it. It does get more complicated though as basic equations with imaginaire numbers (like multiplying and dividing) is very different compared to natural numbers.
