Nerdgasm: pendulum waves
A little bit of physics, a little bit of maths, and ... whoooaaahh, duuuuude!
Mostly it is just about the period of a given pendulum being a function of it's length, but invariant over the amplitude of the swing, appropriately iterated over monotonically increasing lengths. I think I see the "period three implies chaos" law at work here too. If this doesn't lure Pie back, nothing will. There is a pretty good explanation at the Youtube page.
