I watched a show on Fractals and it sort of remind me of Brownian motion. So my question is has anyone ever used fractals to explain Brownian motion?
Do Fractals have anything to do with Brownian motion?

I believe that Brownian motion was successfully explained before fractals were solidified as an object of study.
