CYMATICS: Science Vs. Music - Nigel Stanford. Under water explosions and fluid dynamics. Veritasium. Impressive marble machine, watch till end. Man lifts a 40-pound wheel with one hand and no effort because it’s spinning. Pendulum Waves. Giant Vortex Cannon. Theo Jansen creates new creatures. Watch this bead chain loop defy gravity and bend physics. Science is unendingly cool because it can consistently confound the expectations of researcher and layman alike.

Watch this bead chain loop defy gravity and bend physics

Case in point, what do you figure would happen if you had a bead chain coiled up in a small container, then pulled one end out? You probably didn’t guess that it would leap up and uncoil like a tiny metallic snake, but that’s what happens. This demonstration is sometimes called Newton’s Beads. Students use giant balls to build omnidirectional motorcycle. Riding this bike takes balls.

Students use giant balls to build omnidirectional motorcycle

Gigantic balls. Quite possibly the largest pair of balls you've ever seen in one place. Round wheels are out and spherical wheels are in with this project from students at San Jose State University, the end result of which will be a rideable electric motorcycle that uses balls instead of wheels. Amazing Water & Sound Experiment #2. Everyone Was Completely Speechless. She’s The Only Woman In The World To Do This!
