Dancing "magnetic" puppets - How it is done

If you have bought "magnetic" puppets that dance on cassette player music, do not lose your time to try to set up them. Everything is just a trick!

[@v90660]

Em 101 so what did he say... how does it work?

[@kamenarts785]

Vanessa Garcia he talks a bit fast, but basically they are hung onto the radio and a nearby wall with a thin rope or wire that's attached to the spinning part of the tape that goes up and down, which is what causes the lil figures to go up and down.

[@iskrassupercoolchannel]

My dad and I were in Europe and we saw a seller trying to scam these. The seller was Chinese, and my dad is Chinese, so after my dad bought two he said to the guy in Chinese, “Okay, so I’m a doctor, Im not dumb and I know they can’t dance to song vibrations, so what is the secret?” The seller actually told him the truth 🤣 funniest tourist memory to this day

I remember seeing these in SOHO, NYC by street sellers but knew there was something too good to be true to squander $5 back then. The street seller would use a stick and move it above and below the puppets to show that there were no strings involved. Thanks for exposing this scam and giving closure of the trick behind it.

Thanks for the video! It seemed odd. And now it makes sense why the guy got so angry when I wanted to touch them. And then proceeded to curse me out as I walked away. No one has boom boxes anymore anyway, so they will soon have a failed business plan.

[@skylined5534]

*Techmoan wants to know your location* (This if course isn't true! He does however review lots of stuff from old tech to brand new, currently commercially available boom boxes!)

[@sharon13m]

@@silenthandsome I was thinking at the time that it uses the tape player as the motor, and that they wouldn't find tape players for their display. But probably there is just another cheap motto move them. Have you seen these recently? I saw back in 2007.

Nice.. Now how does it work

[@mickeyqtip7918]

It's usually attached to the tape mechanism of a boombox with the other end of the fishing wire anchored somewhere else.

[@anarcxh8502]

Tl:dr: he paid 5 euro and got scammed he realised that the explanation “the magnets mixed with the sound waves of the music makes them dance” is bs so he found out that you need a tiny string tied between the music source and the figures to make it look like they’re dancing

[@dannyboy4682]

I don't think HE got scammed. Like a lot of people have been seeing this scam, and wondered how the scam *mechanism* works. This was a good video to demonstrate the horizontal wire they use that causes the dancing. Before this video, I couldn't work out how they got something that could easily be hooked up an take off

[@julianmarket]

I went to Barcelona with my family and we saw a the seller had 3 puppets dancing to music by themselves (atleast thats what i thought i saw) and we asked how much and he said it was 2 for 5 euros (euros and american are same thing) and once we bought it he said we had to "charge" it against the tv and then play music for it to work. I was excited until i figured that it was a scam.

Translation. Hello there! My name is Peter Sabev and I was screwed with those two beautiful puppets. The puppets do not look unusual except the fact they can dance. Actually, see for yourselves... The puppets are offered in almost all of the big European cities Usually they are sold by illegal immigrants directly on the street I was lied about their magnetic features which are the reason for the incredible balance and also curious how exactly do they dance and manage to stay in the air like that I paid 5 EUR and brought them home According to the seller, the small magnets in puppets' legs and backs change their polarity affected by the big speaker magnets while the music plays Of course, such a "scientific" explanation is a total ***... but when you see the dance with your own eyes it's so easy to be tricked! The truth is quite different. The puppets are put on practically invisible thread which end is mounted at one end and attached at other to the mechanics of cassette player that sellers always bring with them. So, when the player is started, the puppets are moving. When the player is stopped, puppets stop, too. Elementary, isn't it? The only purpose of the "magnetic" bands of the puppets is just for attaching them to the thread... In short, there is nothing magical in those two paper pieces except their price. And that's all!
