10:00:00	2 BOYS LOOKING AT A TEXT BOOK

BOY 1: Sometimes, it's difficult to understand science from books or when the teacher tries to explain it to us. 

10:00:08	
BOY 2: It's much easier when we can see it happen for ourselves.

10:00:12	
BOY 3: For this experiment, we wanted to find out what would happen if loads of rolled dice together.

10:00:18	ROLLING DICE

BOY: If we got a number between 1 and 3 we kept our blazers on. 
 	
10:00:22	BOY: And if we got a number between 4 and 6, we took our blazers off.

10:00:25	
BOY: We thought the results would be random and so we filmed it to see what would really happen. 

When we played back the footage, we could clearly see a pattern!

10:00:34	SPEEEDED UP FOOTAGE OF DICE THROWERS TAKING BLAZERS ON AND OFF

BOY: Even though we all kept throwing different numbers, the amount of people wearing blazers stayed roughly the same.

BOY 2: So everything's moving but staying the same! It's called Dynamic Equilibrium! 

BOY 1: The concept is quite simple really

BOY 3: But I wouldn’t have understood it if I hadn’t seen it for myself.
