Interesting enough the paper is not needed for this to work, if you lay a rulers up tight on either side of the original ruler and another one at the back edge it also works. the idea is to block the air from getting under the ruler. It is the atmospheric pressure on the ruler itself, 14.7 PSI which is enough to do the trick.

When you crumpled up the paper and tried the same experiment again, I reasoned that it had to do with the large amount of surface area the paper was covering when it was flat. After that, I thought that it was because there was a vacuum underneath the paper. You move the paper quickly, but since there is nothing to replace the empty space with it, it decreases its pressure. I usually keep forgetting that it’s technically because there is a difference in pressure whenever it’s in a normal atmosphere instead of just a larger pressure difference in general.

You might want to mention the actual value for the air pressure (at sea level) is 'round *1.04 kg/cm²* (with minor variations for air temperature).

I spent over 10 years, of my 30+ year aviation career, working in the composite shop of a major airline. We used to repair all the removable, damaged composite structures. After we got rid of the damage, we had to replace the fibreglass, Kevlar or carbon fibre we'd removed with equivalent materials and use the approved resins to replicate the structural integrity and performance characteristics of the original layers. Once we had all the multiple repair layers cut, properly orientated (the direction of the warp and weave), soaked in resin and stacked in place, we'd do our bagging. This consisted of laying a release film directly onto the wet repair, followed by a felt-like bleeder cloth (sucks up excess resin) and another thicker layer, the breather cloth, to allow easy air flow as the vacuum forms, and finally an impermeable, stretchy bagging film held in place by sticky bagging tape around the repair area. Then we'd hook up our pressure gauges and vacuum lines, seal up any leaks we'd missed along the bagging tape, and watch the Earth's atmosphere press down on that repair area at about 14.5 pound per square inch. A 1 foot square repair section would have the equivalent clamping force of over a ton (2088 lbs) of weight, evenly distributed over its surface, and thus compressing the repair layers and squeezing out the excess resin sufficient to replicate the original manufactured characteristics. (there were also temperature controlled heat blankets and or lamps involved to cure the resin at the required temperatures). Side note: the pressure was so great, that the outline of a piece of masking tape, used to hold the release film in place, could often be seen through the multiple layers of bleeder and breather cloth. And that's how I knew why the paper was holding down the ruler, lol. Interesting to note this atmospheric pressure was the same regardless of the repair area's orientation-upside down or sideways made no difference, just like you'd get crushed from all directions simultaneously at ocean depths. Also interesting to note that similar composite repairs, in mile high cities like Mexico City or Denver, can never get the same degree of compression and will always be intrinsically weaker. One last thing. Some of the more critical parts, requiring higher performance, are manufactured and cured in pressurized ovens where the vacuum bagging is being pressed on by significantly more than sea level air pressure. Their engineers give limits to repair schemes that can take place without using a similar pressure vessel. Thus ends my Ted Talk, lol.

I'm actually pretty proud cause when we learned about volume and air resistance at school, I asked the teacher if this same experiment would work without knowing about it. AM SMORT

Nice video, I teach my Little girl every experiment I see on your channel. Thank you for convincing her I’m a genius! Some day when she grows I will tell her the truth😀

I was only thinking about air resistance but the low pressure plays a big role, thanks for a very educational vid
