This video is for the #MegaFavNumbers project. So far, almost 200 people have submitted their favorite numbers over 1 million.

I am choosing a number that is bigger than Graham's number. This can be done with a mathematical notation called "Conway's Chained Arrow Notation". This notation is defined in the video.

Finally, this video is a tribute to Ron Graham and John Conway, they both died this year.
