If we take that last dark shape to be say 10cm wide, how "big" would this whole thing be?

after watching for a minute or two look at something else in the room (like a picture on the wall). it's like one of those optical illusions that mess with your vision for a few seconds.

I'm just curious what's at the bottom of it all?

I've watched a few of these off and on over the years and am still confused by what it means to "hold a new record". I get the general idea of what a Mandelbrot Set is, I just don't understand what it means to "hold a new record" or why that's impressive/important.

Can anyone explain?

What is a mandelbrot?

It just occurred to me this would be a good way to illustrate the size of atoms. Just keep zooming in at a constant rate until they're discernible.
