Topic Wiki

If your video is not embedding, see if your link starts with "http:" - if it does, change it to "https:" and it will work.

If a video isn't embedded you should assume it may be inappropriate for some people.

How do I embed a Youtube video?
Simply post the YouTube URL.
Alternately (actually, this may no longer work):
Click the "youtube" button on the second row on the furthermost left side.
You will now have the words: [youtube][/youtube] in your editor.
Now, copy and paste the youtube video id (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0&x=y) in between the middle brackets in order for it to look like this:
    [youtube]oHg5SJYRHA0[/youtube]
and leave out this part of the link: "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v="

Or you can paste the YouTube link, highlight it, and then click on the "YouTube" button. This will encase the link in the youtube tags,
Now just click "post" and you're done!


How can I search if a video has been posted here before?
This is not foolproof, but it's a good start.
Search for the youtube ID (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0)

Shes assuming theyre trying to do it in one generation.

However, if every woman has a dozen kids and then all their daughters have a dozen kids, it becomes that much more feasible.
Except that Orthodox Jews make up a small percentage of that 6MM. "Haredim" even less than that.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Just want to point out that she assumes there are an equal number of women as men. We all know there are much more...

You'll need at least 100 years, if 1.5 million woman are doing it.

SHe also doesn't consider women beyond child bearing age and other factors such as outside population growth. It is not quite a scientific calculation

Uv'nei Yisrael paru vayishritzu vayirbu vayatzmu bim'od me'od, vatimale ha'aretz osam.

and I would guess that this is sort of how it sounded during the episode mentioned in the Midrash of Pharaoh's three advisers, Yisro, Iyov and Bilam.  :)

The greatest statistic i saw in Israel is that in 2012, two 100 year old well know figures in Judaism died, Harav Elyashiv and Benzion Netanyahu... R' Elyashiv had 1600 descendants and Mr Netanyahu had 12....

Wow. My wife's grandmother and one of her sisters are the only ones from their family who survived the Nazis y"s as children (they were on the kindertransport to England). We once calculated that between the two of them they have around 1000 descendants.

But that's not all on one persons account, each grandchild has 4 grandparents etc, so each person only gets credit for half of their child, none of their child in law and 1/4 of each grandchild, 1/8 of each great grandchild.

Looking backwards it's amazing what one person can accomplish, but in terms of overpopulating the world the numbers get cut down by 85%


Same with this


You'll need at least 100 years, if 1.5 million woman are doing it.

After 5 generations each person has 62 ancestors.

I think @stbaum was kidding, he has the hottest channel on YouTube.
I wasn't actually. I love YouTube and follow tons of channels. His happens to be one I haven't heard about. Why is that strange?
