Fermat's theorem: a^n + b^n = c^n For n > 2, why are there no integers a, b, and c that satisfy the equality?

One of my advisors in college said "The proof takes about 10 years of graduate mathematics to understand".

Is there really no intuitive way to communicate the answer to that question without needing 10 years of grad math? I find that to be somewhat hard to believe

If there were a simple and intuitive way to communicate the answer then I would suggest that we probably would have figured it out in our 300+ years in which this was one of the most famous unanswered questions in mathematics.
