Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Bump for all those like me who missed this entirely.

wow, that was a while ago. I was surprised at the time that nobody commented on it. I thought it was a fairly big deal for bitcoin being included in this Udacity crypto class.

I was actually shocked today when I first saw it and I couldn't believe I missed it the first time it was posted especially since I think it's a very important because it shows how Bitcoin actually is peer reviewed and what reputable people think of it.
