Bunuel said any positive int root from a number more than one is more than one.
\(\sqrt[1000]{2}\)>1 but that means it is 2^(1/1000) right? How is that greater than 1?

\(\sqrt[1000]{2} \approx 1.000693...\)
Also, consider this: let \(\sqrt[1000]{2} = x\), where x > 0. Then \(2 = x^{1000}\). Now, if x were less than 1, then \(x^{1000}\) would be less than x (when taking a number between 0 and 1 to a positive integer power, its value decreases. For instance, (1/2)^2 = 1/4, which is less than 1/2). Hence, x must be greater than 1.
Hope it's clear.
