Hya fellow cgtalkers..
I've been wondering for a long time now(ever since I saw jschleifer in fast animation rig), what a gimbal lock actually is.. I tried to find some info about it.. But I didn't find anything that I could understand... Something when one angle is locking the rotation. But WHY do this problem occur?

Very appriciated if you could fill me in a bit! :)
