An aside, I have never seen anyone write the digit 8 like that before.
My takeaway from the video is that real numbers between 0-1 or 1-2 are infinite. And infinity+1 or -1 is still infinity. Even if you take something out from between 1-2, it will remain the same.
I was going to recomend that video. It has a good description of the technical details, but it uses a graphical representation to make it clear. But it's not a stupid graphical representation that hides all the details under flashy animations.
