  • What is point of this video? Is it something relate to VAWT, or it about "discovery"of magnetic levitation?

  • FOR WND POWER GENERADOR IS VERRY GOOD

  • ''and..........? ? ?'', He has drasticly reduced friction and at the same time suspended 35 kilo's using magnetic levitation, both these things are cool.

  • groovy man

  • hmmm. If you put more magnets on the the rod and had them levitating of one another would it increase the shock absorption? Would it beat a spring shock absorber? YOu should try... Because if it works out you can put it into cars and make some cash money... YOu feel me?

  • You should add a few more annotations at the beginning - it wasn't annoying enough!

  • Except of a huge waste of time, what excactly is this we are watching? He put two magnets and made a table and..........? ? ?

  • @thethirdprestigor magic just like velcro

  • Couldn't you just put a bearing inside the spinning magnet to reduce friction even further? (friction between spinning magnet and rod)

  • 1:31 get a wrench

  • How do they work.

  • Why was i hoping he was gonna slip and impale himself?...-_-

  • Music by GarageBand?

  • Its great I saw it functioning in 1954 we used to create electricity in our village for studying as no electricity in our village.

  • we should use these for shock absorbers on cars!!!!!!

  • this guy knows how make an awsom vid

  • at 1:40 if his hands slipped off the magnets there would be no more mr green power science dude. thumbs up for yes, thumbs down for no.

  • @xanonamisx im sure theres safety stuff in place, remember he is a professional

  • thank you very much man. have an idea now.

  • PLEASE FALL ON THE SPIKE WHEN YOU PUSH, PLEASE> I WANNA SEEEEEE!

  • I'm tempted to graph the relationship between weight and how far it goes down. I looks like it may be exponential until a certain weight point is reached and touches the 2 magnets together.

  • I would really like to see another spin art video

  • I was thinking how about using them as shocks for some shoes?

  • this guy has lag

  • Now where's my microdots?

  • that wares out the strength or ur magnets really fast

  • thumbs up if u wer staring at the random blue marker cap???

  • the problem is the bearing point between the wood and the pole is rubbing. better off just make a real bearing to ensure even workload all direction.

  • i wonder how much weight it takes for those magnets to touch

  • about a dollar at ebay

  • the neodyum ones are the strongest ones if u put ur finger there it will crush it

  • kinda good, just one problem, over time, while repelling eachother magnets weaken eachother... I am not exactly sure how tenacious neos are but you really do not want to push you magnets to their limit while in repulsion.

  • 0:04 BALL! YEAH!!!

  • my acid finaly kicked in at 7:51 wooo hooo

  • @aendorf how would u know??? u wer probly too hi at the time...

  • lol thinking what wud happen if u dropped the whole thing on your foot...*FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­U*

  • @aendorf LOL64turntablez

  • Where can you buy those kind of magnets?

  • waoo this is awsome........like it

  • Kids dont do drugs

  • 2:54 You don't need to zoom in, we can see it big and clear.

  • Looks like you're having way too much fun there Dan ;)

  • I am willing to belive that if those magnets touch the universe will erupt 

  • where can i get magnets like them

  • I am enjoying your videos, and i am learning new things about wind turbines and how to make one. I am very interested in making a wind turbine , i didnt know anything about the neodymium magnets and it seems like a good idea. hope to see more of your ideas

  • do they use these for suspension for cars and stuff..and how long does they repel

  • Fucking magnets...how do they work?

  • @TheThirdPrestigiator It's called research my friend, theirs this amazing thing called google!

  • @ChristianSarbu You're smart.

  • @TheThirdPrestigiator science!

  • @TheThirdPrestigiator

    Magnets are like you and your in-laws.

    You won't come in contact until some kind of force (i.e. your wife) pushes you

  • Thanks for sharing, good instructional!

    

  • Where did you get those donut-shaped neodyms?

  • @secundiflora threw the internet

  • just show us and shut uppp nerd

  • Fack you.. say to watch HQ but 480 p is the highest..

  • Fuckin magnets are fuckin good bearings.

    I thought I'd just throw that out...

  • One smart question, and the friction between magnet and the rod that is sticking through the second magnet?

  • using spraycans is good for mother nature right?

  • Fuckin magnets, how do they work?!

  • @hcoll magnetic fields....

  • lol

  • You Gave Me A SEIZURE Mutha' Fucka

  • will it blend? that is the question..

  • Hehe... He said blow.

  • 1:33 Who else waited when the upper magnet slips out and thwacks him in the face? XD

  • at the end looks fun ;D

  • well, i built one of these and to tell you the truth i couldnt get it to work. you can levetate whatever you want, but the weight of the object still has to be pushed by the wind. All your doing is taking out some friction factors...i believe its still possible, just needs fine tuneing

  • Hey Dan where did you get those magnets?

  • Physics question:

    If u suspend a magnetic wheel in a circular magnetic field inside a vacuum chamber and spin it, will it then spin indefinitely?

    There is no air inside the vacuum chamber and the magnetic wheel is suspended in mid air by a circle of powerful magnets.

    

  • @mancamiatipoola no, over time the magnet will eventually lose its magnetism

  • @bruenor82

    Thank you sir, i did not think about that :).

    I imagine that the magnetic wheel would start wobbling faster and faster because of the oscillations formed by the fading magnetic field before reaching the collision point with the outer magnetic ring.

    Do u think the oscillations will be faster or slower than the speed of the rotating wheel?

  • @mancamiatipoola i cannot be sure but i imagine the loss of strength would be too gradual for this to happen. also, we are discounting the friction between the wheels/magnets against the centre 'axle' so it should stop in a manner just as a spinning coin would?

    this is just my conjecture.

  • @bruenor82

    The reason i was asking all of this was to know if it is possible to create an electric turbine in zero gravity to spin indefinitely (or for a long time). Could a turbine like that be used for power generation in space (where u have less sunlight)? A magnetic wheel could spin indefinitely in space, but could it generate power after its initially set in motion.

    Do u think that would be a viable power generator in space?

  • @mancamiatipoola i am unclear on how your generator would function. How does it generate power exactly? Are you suggesting a permanent magnet motor in space?

  • What is the price of this magnets, and what would be the cost to build a let say 30 km of MagLev train line, i gues that useing powerfull magnets to levitate reduces the costs of power only to propulsion forward, what do you think?

  • @GrayShark09 need stronger magnets

  • @GrayShark09

    Building a maglev rail out of rare earth magnets would be impractical and about 100 times more expensive than building a maglev rail out of copper electromagnets. Even if u build it out of powerful metallic magnets, u still need a form of propulsion for the maglev train.

    We have the technology to build maglev trains that will exceed 300 mph, the only reason we are not doing it is because we are held back by the oil monopoly.

    Think about that next time u gas up...

  • chuck norris can push them together with one finger

  • @Shaymin44 chuck norris is a 60 year old fart

  • @720moorhsum dude ....... be warned this sentence might lead u to premature dead chuck norris is an unexplained force yet to be discovered

  • @Shaymin44

    Chuck Norris can defy gravity, therefore he can push those magnets together just by looking at them :P.

  • that is great 

  • GREEN Power? whats up with all the aerosol?

  • it turns Guillermo into super Guillermo!!!!!!

  • 222 people hate's magnets. hahahhaha

  • @TheSavageScream no. just no.

  • WIND TURBINES CAUSE CHANGES IN AIRPRESSURE KILLING FLYING ANIMALS!

  • 8:07

    thats it

    im fucking tripping

  • cant u weaken the magnet by facing north and north at each or south and south for a long period of time?

  • dear santa x2

  • amazing, since i was alil kid magnets were my thing- i always used black ones concidering thats all we could get from the african stereo speakers however i remember once dreaming about silver magnets as a child that were so powerful not even i could pull them apart so i guess my dream has been revived and its gonna lead to possibly free alternating current being produced in my back-yard.. thanks man :)

  • @Tik46 the black ones are hemitite

  • Interesting the uses arre endless. Magnetic energy... will be a big part of the future for sure.

  • ever thought of an almost frictionless rod, horizontal, of course you would need circular magnets to keep it from moving horizontally. Yes i expect an answer

  • @halloforigin bullshit! its magic!

  • spinning on a rod (;

  • @jamescoolman50 my name is james and i like to watch videos about magnets haha

  • sorry. that nerd comment was not me, but my friend (not anymore cuz he pissed on my lil bro'). i went to teh bathroom and he commented on this video. as a sorry i will subscribe.

  • tnx im doing this for my sience fair just smaller scale

  • Hey guys, the aliens already know all this stuff ;)

  • insane clown posse brought me here

  • thumbs up for garage band loops at the end

  • @MikeFromTheUK1 Thats easy mate, the floyven mayven cohesion debigulates the "MOHOOOOOOYYYYYYVEN GLAAAAAAVEN!!!", creatting the flubber effect.

  • Where do you get those magnets

  • Fucking Magnets.

  • at 3:05 there is a face on the left side of the weight

  • will it blend? that is the question.

  • are you a miracle?

  • is there a magnet that can hold 260 pounds?

  • Comment removed

  • NEEEEERD!

  • @MrHennyguy You look at his biceps? He's a nerd who can kick your az$.

  • i fuckin well bum magnets!

  • Trippy.

  • AWESOME!

  • @alternatorman And if he didn't talk you would ask 50 stupid questions about what you seen.

  • @alternatorman I wanna give you a thumbs up, but I'm totally guilty of doing the same thing.

  • @alternatorman You are being a bit too rude to someone doing such a noble thing

  • ...im so sick of seeing that fat asian guy ride a motorcycle through his office.

  • LOL

  • spinn-art is gay

  • no need for weed and inhalants anymore..o.0

  • 4:50 infinite energy?

  • 1:19 Masterbation

  • Programing magnet )))

  • OMG I'm so glad I was wrong.... moving magnets being forced together will only lose 5 to 10% of they're magnetism every 100 years lol... however, they will die quickly if the heat is above 100 degrees? hmm, very delicate magnets indeed, I'd watch that magnets friction. easy enough to lock it onto the pole.... magnet spinning on metal not good. put magnets on pole facing out, and create a cage of magnets around that, completely frictionless, well minus the air... done it before..

  • How much load could that hold if you had used the more expensive N52 magnets?

  • Hey, I like your video on your vawt. I just made my first VAWT video, I'm looking on suggestions before I decide to build a working model. If you search for "VAWT, Simple easy to build, powerful" you'll find it. any comments welcome.

  • who else cant be bothered looking at this dudes junk for a while...

  • the words "Green power" seem okay but adding the word "science" is out of his league!

    Sorry m8 but the word just does not fit your standards..

  • magnets..... really???? 10 minutes

    ?????

  • This displays an incredible amount of uselessness.

  • @ruxblue Yeah having a rotor with no friction is so useless ;P omg read a book about mechanical psysiques and then talk .fucking utube

  • @freddy692000 Do you really believe this is a frictionless rotor? Do you believe this demonstrates more than the fact that magnets repel each other? This is like demonstrating teleportation by throwing a ball across the room. I could get into the extreme multidirectional forces of a VAWT and Earnshaw's theorem... but do I really want to get into a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent? Go sit in the corner and contemplate your multifaceted abuse of the word physics.

  • Comment removed

  • @ruxblue Are you going to tell us that this has as much friction as it would with ball bearings? I know that ball bearings eventually break down (they go out of shape) which makes the motor/rotor useless from then on. I doubt the magnets would do that but what I do not know is how long the magnets will retain their magnetic properties and the force keeps them apart as when they were new.

  • @GhostOfACPast Probably better than a lazy-susan system that I have seen, but not as effective as a $3 thrust bearing. This is neither here nor there. What I was whinging about is the fact that this shows nothing but the fact that magnets repel. Add a pair of magnets to the top, to add a downward force, add few pairs along the shaft (ring/rod) to keep it off the support post and we would have something a little less useless. Now how do we keep the rotor an even distance from the stator? ...

  • @ruxblue ...(cont.) This is a flat board bouncing around wood on metal. Great, the downward friction is reduced, now give it a higher center of gravity (vawt is not flat...) and a 30 mph wind that attacks in all kinds of directions now try to drive electrons down some copper with it wobbling back and forth. Cogging in a standard alternator can shake bolts loose, imagine what magnet play will do... Point is this does not address practical problems. There is nothing in this demonstration that does

  • @ruxblue (part 2) The second part you mention also holds true but lets just look at each problem as we go. Disc is free floating above another surface. Yep. Disc is free floating around the rod. No...fail. Now when we connect up wires etc... I would leave for another discussion but the first two criteria I mentioned must be done first.

  • @ruxblue We are thinking along the same lines because the part with the friction is where the rod enters the hole and there is absolutely nothing keeping the friction down at that point. Now if the disk could be suspends around the rod and suspended away from the bottom then we would be rocking. So far this only shows the later part.

    A Bullet train hover over the track to reduce friction so it can reach such high speeds but it is fully removed from the track the item in the video is not.

  • I think some people watch your videos because you have become the DIY Tim the Toolman Taylor of the internet.

  • i love how he said it was a 90 pound push and yet 30 pounds nearly causes them to touch

  • you NEED to learn what are bearings for. this is magnetic support and you use wood-steel contact as bearing. uh I so much hate these "inventors". shame for the science.

  • A few years ago, everybody knew how the magnets work. Now everyone is asking how they work for some reason.

  • really this is art? i once drank a bunch of cool aid and had green poop

  • let me help you out... if you put a 2 north poles together.... they.. omg... REPEL lol....

    you skipped 4th-12th grade didnt you?

  • its not frictionLISS its frictionLESS...... your an idiot. go sell something on an infomercial lol

  • very nice video !!! this is real art

  • fucking magnets how do they work?

  • @mikseris13 magic everywhere in this bitch

  • @mikseris13 Problem physics?

  • @mikseris13 Your christian mind could never understand it..

  • @Mcwolfkiller wut?

  • @Mcwolfkiller Dick...

  • @mikseris13 icp?

  • @MRB124D yup

  • @mikseris13

    Miracles.

  • @mikseris13 youve probs had a bunch of explanations in 2 months but incase not...

    moving charge generates a magnetic field and in atoms the charged particle move around the nucleus and produce a magnetic field. In some materials these magnetic fields add up and in others they cancel aswell as other affects.
