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.
It’s like saying there are 4s greater than 4 which I don’t know what that means. If they both equal and are four how is one four larger.

Infinity is not a number with a value, it is a concept.
Between 1 and 2 there are infinite numbers 1.00-1, 1.00-2 all the way until you get to 1.99-9 with an indeterminable amount of numbers in the dash.
Guess what has twice as many as that indeterminable amount?
The numbers between 1 and 3!
So you really gotta separate your view of numbers from the concept of the infinite. They just don’t gel well together
