Well, back in the day...... Salmon fishin in Michigan!

Sounds fun, but biking with a pitchfork near your head seems worse than running with scissors.

Ok you asked for it.
In mathematics, a fractal is a geometric shape containing detailed structure at arbitrarily small scales, usually having a fractal dimension strictly exceeding the topological dimension. Many fractals appear similar at various scales, as illustrated in successive magnifications of the Mandelbrot set. This exhibition of similar patterns at increasingly smaller scales is called self-similarity, also known as expanding symmetry or unfolding symmetry; if this replication is exactly the same at every scale, as in the Menger sponge, the shape is called affine self-similar. Fractal geometry lies within the mathematical branch of measure theory.

But don't leave out that a "perfect" measurement of a fractal circumference is equal to infinity, upon continued iterations, keeping within just the simplest of Mandelbrot sets.

It takes a "long time" or "it seems to take forever" to trim the entire circumference.
It's freaking hilarious!

West coast Big 10 is an oxymoron

We have to face reality. It sure ballooned my retirement budget

Here is a visual. It's similar to the the infinite shoreline paradox. There will always be more "edge" if you look closely enough.

Much better video if you have a buzz!

Fractals are a left wing conspiracy to get us to accept the concept of infinite and and then move u the world to a fractal currency

Explain yourself. Snail shell like a fractal?

Snail shells more closely resemble the Fibonacci progression.

1+1=2, 2+1=3, 3+2=5, 5+3=8, 8+5=13 and continuing to be as large as the constructure needs to be. It becomes very strong!
This progression is used in development of certain horn shaped musical instruments as well, but with predictable log fractions of each dimension, instead of whole numbers.

I can't remember if it was Mandelbrot or one of his students that proved, using fractal geometry, that the shoreline around the main isle of Great Britain was indeed, infinitely long.
