Modern+connection

The modern connection between Zeno and today is that Zeno made the building blocks for mathematics and motion. Many people (like Buddha Boy in the following video) fail to understand one of Zeno's philosophies which involves the tortoise and Achilles. In the previous slide it talks about how Achilles can not catch up to the Tortoise or pass him in the time allowed. The modern connection is that like Achilles, many people fail to understand the equation fully. media type="custom" key="4463977" align="center"

Buddha Boy symoblizes the modern connection. Many people today would make the same mistake that Buddha Boy makes in this video by thinking he is not going to be hit, when he actually has to finish Zeno's paradox before it is too late.
