Circles are amazing symbols that have been given many meanings in society. Phrases such as 'the circle of life' and 'coming full circle' are peppered throughout our everyday conversations, and the shape itself is considered to be pleasing to the eye.

But how round does a circle have to be in order to be called a circle?

Many people have tried to figure out how to draw the ultimate circle. The fact that it is nearly impossible to draw a circle freehanded has led to some people concluding that drawing the perfect circle is something only a deeply unstable person can do. 

Or is it something that only a person with incredibly flexible joints can do?

In this video, a man put a piece of chalk to a wall and rotated his arm 360 degrees in order to get the perfect circle:

He didn't even look at what he was doing while he was drawing!

But his arm must have hurt after all that effort, so clearly drawing an extra large perfect circle on a random wall is something you can only ever do once in your lifetime?
