Why do seahorses have square tails?
In nature, most prehensile tails are round--think monkeys, chameleons, etc. But unlike all those other curly-tailed creatures, the seahorse has a square tail. What might be the benefits of a square spiral? Read the research -- http://scim.ag/1dv42L6

Heads-Tails and Heads-Heads are different? The ABRACADABRA Theorem for coin flips and dice #SoME2
Which takes more coin flips to come up on average, Heads-Tails or Heads-Heads? What about HHTT vs HTHT? Find out how long it takes and why using the magical ABRACADABRA Theorem. The method also works for dice rolls, the speeding rule in Monopoly, or a monkey typing at a typewriter. Video

Counter-Intuitive Probability. Coin Flips To HH Versus HT Are Not The Same!
What is the expected number of coin flips until you get two heads in a row (HH)? What is the expected number of coin flips until you get a heads followed by a tails (HT)? The video presents the solution and an intuitive explanation for this probability riddle. Blog post: http://wp.me/p6aM
