David Rees: It's The Little Things

The Brian Lehrer Show | Aug 11, 2014

In his new TV series "Going Deep," David Rees investigates the science and process behind very basic tasks, like tying a shoelace or ice melting. He talks about the little things and teaches Brian - and you - to fold the perfect paper airplane. Here are the visual instructions for David's perfect plane.

Update! Video of David Teaching Brian to Fold the Plane
