Instead of breaking down how much force and energy is applied during a tackle, Minute Physics takes a look at the role of scientific symmetry in yesterday’s big game. A nice departure from the typical scientific breakdowns of the sport.
It might not be as obvious to spot as the symmetry occurring in nature, but it’s certainly there in everything from complicated plays, to team formations, to throwing a perfect spiral. Even the endless practices which gave players on both the Giants and the Patriots instinctual reactions to what was happening on field demonstrate symmetry. So if that half-time show left you feeling a little less than cerebral, this video should remedy that. [YouTube]
