I have watched many videos on YouTube about it from people like vsauce, veratasium and others and even my math tutor a few years ago but still don’t understand.
Infinity is just infinity it doesn’t end so how can there be larger than that.

There is a hotel that has an infinite number of rooms. A travel soccer team shows up, they are the team “infinite even” numbers. They take up every room.
