Perpetual Motion : See-Saw Machine using Balls

[@DirkIronside]

Don’t care if it’s perpetual or not, it looks cool and an elegant desk toy!

[@MarioGudec]

Thank you Dirk :)

[@EthanBeal-dx7ni]

glad I watched the whole video for the claim that this is in fact, not a true perpetual motion machine and is just a clever example of physics

[@MarioGudec]

Thank you for comment. An interesting concept

[@audetnicolas]

At the start (before the balls are added) the "machine" is perfectly balanced. Given that it sitting on a small cylinder which is well below the center of gravity of the machine, it shouldn't be easy to balance it that way. So it smells fishy. It is probably held in place by another mechanism, which we can't see. Probably because it is behind the machine. Just taking a guess : the motion of the machine is from the user that is standing behind (he is kind of rocking left and right). Maybe some sort of pedals?

[@BoulderCreekRailroad]

Yeah I agree! My theory is there is thin elastic line, the stuff you by from a magic store for doing floating money type tricks, it's attached to the top of the contraption and he is holding the other end of the string in his mouth, then he tilts his head side to side pulling the contraption left and right as the balls reach each end. That would also explain his body slightly tilting left and right as well.

You can literally see the faking in the reflection of the table LOL

[@MarioGudec]

Good observation 🙂. Thanks for the comment

[@tebla2074]

how do you know a perpetual motion machine wont work? Because it claims to be a perpetual motion machine!

[@MarioGudec]

Thank you for comment

[@ricksampson6780]

I believe these things to be true!

[@MarioGudec]

Thank you for your comment

[@expioreris]

but that would mean that science was wrong all this time

[@audetnicolas]

The balls aren't going down any zigzag track!? What the heck is the description talking about?

[@MarioGudec]

Thank your for your comment

[@orpheuscreativeco9236]

Slightly tip the entire set left to right : watching his arms telegraphs the movement with a slight sway. Great trick though! ✌️🤪✨

[@MarioGudec]

Thank you for comment

[@Sonic_Shroom]

No that is not perpetual motion. that is just a complicated pendulum.

[@MarioGudec]

Thank you for your comment. I appreciate it 😊

[@polok890]

Nothing there to make it move back in the other direction

[@audetnicolas]

Indeed. It makes no sense. Even without friction it wouldn't work.

[@MichaelDub]

but how does......nevermind :)

[@MarioGudec]

Thank you for the comment

الطاقه الحره متوفرة بانماط كثيره وانظمه متعددة ..وهي سهله المنال المشكله في فهم الانسان لواقع الظواهر الطبيعيه لاجل محاكانها بالضبط..فقط

[@MarioGudec]

Thanks

[@letsflipp]

thought you'd make a nice kinetic sculpture, not a scam machine

[@MarioGudec]

Thank you for your comment.

[@cybernetic2024]

This is motorised, fool.

[@MarioGudec]

Thank you for the comment. Always appreciate

Qui c'è il trucco

[@weslingm]

Thank you Mario for guiding us all in the direction of free energy. I personally believe free energy is achievable and engineering can easily solve. I am personally devoting large amounts of time solving problems I see in youtube videos. So your videos really speak to me.

[@MarioGudec]

Thank you for your kind words. I will keep this topic alive to inspire all who like it

[@mongolianstallion8274]

because of entropy there can never be true free energy, at one point all the energy in the world will be unusable

[@audetnicolas]

​@@mongolianstallion8274Obviously, this is fake. You're making too much sense for this channel! 😉

[@Сергійлитвинов-б6ф]

Круто

[@MarioGudec]

Thank you for kind words
