Ever see a mathematical equation so elegant it makes your brain tingle? This visual proof of Fermat's Last Theorem for n=3 (that 3³ + 4³ + 5³ = 6³) shows how stacking colored cubes can supposedly demonstrate this equality. Just one tiny problem... it's completely wrong! The equation actually equals 216 + 64 + 125 = 405, while 6³ = 216. The meme brilliantly trolls mathematicians by presenting a visually convincing "proof" that's mathematically impossible. It's the mathematical equivalent of those impossible objects that look correct until you stare long enough to realize you've been bamboozled!
