  • K what if made the floor of a room out of north pole magnets facing up...then put to magnets northpole facing down into a skateboard deck......hoverboard??

  • This is what i'm planning to do when i'm gonna create my high voltage generator, centered of course and balanced with strong forces keeping it in place while being free to spin effortlessly.

    There is one guy here on youtube that made his test setup exceed 400 volt dc output, while it's input was just mere 12 volt.

    At least, that's what he's stating, but i won't know for sure unless i try it myself.

    With repelling magnets keeping it in place, it should be like a child play exceeding 500 volt dc.

  • officially this isn't magnetic levitation, it's pseudo levitation...

    but it's cool anyway.

  • are you british or what

  • mmmmmm danish!!!

     im hungry

  • You sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger

  • Are U Danish? cause i am too

  • he could do it without the box easily, all he needed to do is centralizing the pencil over the center of the setup he just did. drawing the magnet forces, all horizontal ones would null each other and the vertical ones would stack making a force to the top which would gravitate the pencil. also, there is friction with the air as well, its just too little since the speed is also too low.

  • i like how he says "neodymium" at 0:18

  • Why would u keep saying let's see if u obviously dine it already

  • i like ur hair

  • cool accent...

  • Witchcraft I tell you! Magnets are the Devil Bobby Boucher!

  • fuckin' magnets, how do they work ??

  • the point of the box is that the magnets on the ground push the magnets on the pencil into the box

  • he sound dannish :P

  • its stuck in the box

  • @OMGITSNEWMONEY no its not i did the same thing but with lego and i made a hoverbord

  • if you made the magnet on one side of the pencil face the opposite way, and tweak how far the magnets attached to the table are, it might work without the box.

    basically, make both of the magnets on the pencil try to push towards the middle of the pencil so they cancel out.

    i.e. like this (sorry if it's hard to understand) (the pencil)

    -----N-S----------------S-N---­--

    N__________________N

    (the top of the magnets attached to the table)

    N is north pole, S is south pole.

  • Yes let's spin it one more time and call it a day

    This is a really nice video...the friction is really low...laminated paper against graphite is super low...

    you should try and place the magnets so that the pencil is completly in free float no box needed

    you would have to cancel out gravity, which you've already acheived but you would also have to place the magnets so that the magnets do not repel and accelerate the pencil. Try placing them exactly the same space away, in a rectangular shape.

  • You're so cute <3 Great vid!

  • suba suba suba!

  • Lol, are you from scandinavia ?

    It is usually easy to hear danish, norwegian or swedish people speak english.

  • To easy to recognise that the box is where the pencil is pierced

  • Well, the box stops the pencil from tilting down and falling. So this is levitation generally with some Newton physics. Try this. Get a permanent magnet and a neodymium magnet, then pour some nitrogen liquid on the permanent magnet (First you have to have a cup with the perm. magnet :P to hold liquid) . Place the Neodymium magnet over the perm. magnet and it WILL levitate. spin it to, it will be fun :).

  • how much time did you use to put the magnets well aligned? I mean I haven't seen the video and I'm sleeping already :(

  • Did none of you people attend high school science class? The box is doing nothing but providing something for the pencil to push against as it's not stable enough just to levitate with the magnets. The box doesn't hold the pencil up at all. It would levitate without the box but soon fall over since it has no way to stay centered over the magnets. Now, if he built a wire framework and placed magnets along the sides he could get it to stay in place without touching anything at all.

  • @Soulrider2012 are you kidding me! i no! even i new that and! im in seventh grade!

  • @LinkxXxX1 Glad to hear it. That means you're more intelligent then half the people commenting on this video that think the box is holding up the pencil. 

  • @Soulrider2012 I don't recall ever doing things with magnets in science. I remember learning the scientific method and dealing with gravity for a solid two months though.

  • yeah cause the box doesnt have anything in it at all and its not helping in any way

  • Actually that's not the ONLY thing - don't forget the air friction. That's probably the main force that stops the spin, more than the tip of the pencil.

  • u forgot about air friction

    

  • works fine, until the pencil tip drills a hole through the box, through the wall, down the street, through someone's windshield and gets lodged into someone's retina.

    XD

  • Dude u got also friktion from the air around :-]

  • what's the use of the box?

  • @arniejerome12 so the pencil won't fall down

  • the box is holding it there

  • the box holdes it and you can see at the end of the pencil it in not in the strange path

  • wow

  • Should be called a 'paper box levitating a pencil' device. Try to see what you get with no box.

  • @Kakarocka u need something there to keep the pencil in placew duhhh : P

  • @Kakarocka if theres no box the pencil will be pushed forward. it would fly away.

  • @Kakarocka its there so it doesn't loose control, and fly off the area, dumb ass.

  • @Kakarocka it would fling off
