I like it. There is a super fun ted(?) talk, that I can’t seem to find, with a guy constructing and cutting Möbius strips, and variations on that theme. Pretty unintuitive what a little twist can do! ...and I seemingly still cannot find it. A google will reveal many such videos, I think, but no time to search them out.

Matt Parker has demonstrated this at least a couple of times on YouTube, I bet he’s who you’re thinking of. It is surprising! https://youtu.be/-u-O_2Hz82I https://youtu.be/-u-O_2Hz82I

  I think I was thinking of a Matt Parker video. I hadn’t seen this one though, thanks!

perhaps you are thinking of this video from Numberphile with Tadashi Tokieda https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wKV0GYvR2X8 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wKV0GYvR2X8

  I forgot about this one. It’s great, thank you! His video with the counterintuitive bead flows was great as well, if I recall. Lots of good stuff from this guy. Well, both numberphile and Tadashi Tokieda have lots of good stuff, I should say!
