Euler's Trail

I found this video on YouTube, and I thought it was very interesting. The challenge is to draw a single curve that crosses through every single line in the picture only one time. I tried it a few times myself, but was unable to solve it. Finally, the video revealed that completing this puzzle is mathematically impossible!
