Oh wow, good video. So classical physics predicted that as light wavelengths got shorter and shorter, the blackbody equation would start to go towards infinity, essentially predicting that near zero wavelengths would have near infinite energy.

Planck then said, hey maybe it's not to do with the frequency, but the throughput of discrete chunks of lights - and - boom - he got laid right there on the spot
