In my talk I will present the classical Banach-Tarski paradox concerning decomposition of a ball into a finite amount of disjoint sets and rearranging them to obtain... two balls identical with the original one! The talk will be accessible to everyone having some very basic knowledge in measure theory and algebra and should be interesting to students currently taking the real analysis course.
