Wow! A math meme! Is this the 3d version of the unsolved moving sofa problem?
You haven’t been doomscrolling enough lately.
The question is what is the biggest couch. That’s a non optimal solution on the gif, there are bigger couches which can fit
My grandpa got a pool table in his basement in a very similar stair condition. To this day, I have no idea how beyond the fact that he had a come along tied to a 4x4 across the basement door. We just left it down there when we sold the house.
the legs come off a grand, they turn it 90d and wheel it on a cart. seen this done, required tall doors tho.
This actually happens. Had a relative that bought one of a row of townhouses being built back in the 60s. The company building the houses thought it would be a sweet incentive to include a piano with each one, so now everyones house in that row has a busted old stand up piano in the basement that’s impossible to remove without some sort of demolition.
Reminds me of my own hilarious large furniture movements. Someone bought a love seat for the home I reside in, didn’t bother measuring anything, and asked me to retrieve it from the store. A very kind gentleman was paid to bring it from the store to the outside of the house. I took one look at the love seat, one look at the door, and asked him to kindly leave because he didn’t want to be any part of the process of getting it inside.
I ultimately took a circular saw to the back of the love seat and later reattached it and stapled the fabric back on.
It had a weird stylistic hump in the center that was the major cause of the problem. I was fully aware upon a handful of measurements that there wasn’t even a chance it was going to fit. My cut was only enough of the back to get it through the door. I realized upon rereading I made it sound like I removed the whole thing.
Even now, 5 years later you can’t tell it was operated on unless you take a good look at the back of it.
I just wonder if you’ll settle into it one day and it’ll just come apart.
Is this Dirk Gently’s house?
