[cojudo4life]

I'm sorry, but that soccer ball/generator looks like it was a dumb idea.

[ShamonUk]

forget physics... the chemistry between those two is crazy!

[Telemna]

he was obviously checking you out for the first clip.... and then he started talking... and I just thought wow... he sounds gay... so now I'm confused about whether or not he was actually checking you out lol

[bangNL94]

I like that football generator thingy

[djake93]

That guy is a very good speaker - he makes me actually want to listen to what he's going on about :)

[cricketbat08]

how do magnets work?

[sth128]

"analyzed the debris that stirred up into the air"...

THERE'S NO AIR ON THE MOON, OR IN SPACE! GO BACK TO HIGH SCHOOL!!!

[wallshuttle]

Please help me..

Ten years of effort, we successfully developed the most advanced "Wall Shuttle" in the world eventually.

For paint and wallpaperin. Diy new invention

Thanks!

[MustRunFaster]

Fuckin' magnets...how do they work???

[MrOliver1444]

Elli is so sexy!

[xUtuber117x]

I swear to god I told my mom when I was around 8 that If there is a shakable flashlight that gets power from movement then can't we put one in footballs and basketballs and then drain the energy into some generator for energy!!! AND THEY LAUGHED AT ME OH MY GAWD!!!

[NOSFERATUalu]

Awesoome..!!!

[BigAndTall666]

Ellie is the best invention!

[badmojo420]

I hate how they cut out the sound that the hedge trimmer makes.

[Mazequax]

I don't like him ... especially how he speaks D:

[artvandelay13]

2:49 innervators :/

[krypekeeper]

any magazine that would lie out there ass for the government is a piece of shit

[NoEoAoRo]

@krypekeeper Truthers don't have the truth. Popular Mechanics beat the loose change people fair and square.

[krypekeeper]

@NoEoAoRo keep on drinking

[whizbonker]

How many people from third world nations put their hard earned money toward a cell phone and attatchable microscope...

[Namolis]

@whizbonker You'd be surprised.....

[selfmadetool]

The window is very dirty behind you :(

[misterbearbe]

@selfmadetool /facepalm its sunblind..

[LilDLo007]

Who knew something as simple as a soccer ball could produce enough energy to give a developing family 3 hours of light :-)

[zekshoes]

Much better than the pizza video Ellie

[ObiJohn]

OMG those two totally have the same speech patterns! Are they like, dating?

[amath12345]

Every thing about this guy is annoying. His polytone voice especially -_-

[Jordacar]

Okay, that cell phone-scope and the soccer ball battery were wicked cool. 

[ducktapelover1]

this guy is anoying

[JIHOJIJO]

I think the Soccer Ball is the Best item on the table.

The most efficient.

[Winsucker]

i think that guy is gey

[TheKluten]

Fucking magnets

[MexicanRacoon805]

@TheKluten F***** magnet locks, how do they work? =\

[ShannonThePaperBoy]

@MexicanRacoon805 You just made me smile.

[DemonicSymphonic]

I think that guy is her long lost twin brother

[MrMaxXWorld]

Didn't NASA found out that there can be life without water? on Titan... one of the Saturn moons?

[herenthere]

and cue death by sneaking up on people with a quiet electric hedge trimmer

[DeRealUno]

hes so optimistic when he speaks

[CONVENTION]

how do magnets work

[OpiatedBliss]

@CONVENTION

Im cool with dna, quantum physics is a breeze, but seriously wtf how do magnets work????

[TheGrerex]

@CONVENTION Fuckin magnets

[quidproquo2004]

@CONVENTION Either via electric current or via spin alignment. 

[SALVATl0N]

seth likey 0:10



[Ranos17]

Looking forward to magnetic doors!

[elspethjane]

Who wants to take bets on how many mentions of "Magnets How Do They Work?" will be on this episode?

[SherbetStardust]

@elspethjane Over 9000. >:3

[Syntox]

@elspethjane - well....how DO they?

[darkadian]

@elspethjane I hope none

[adamlyons87]

Cool video, I like knowing about stuff like this.

[ivanxdxd2008]

fucking magnets! how do they work?

[CaptKundalini]

An electric soccer ball? That's about as useful as say....an electric dog polisher or a fur sink.

[LfunkeyA]

@CaptKundalini

fucking tard, the reason it's a football is because of how effectively it gathers energy, at least watch the video.

[CaptKundalini]

@LfunkeyA Wow, I make a little joke and out come the emos.

Bad day at the Orifice, hmmmm?

[LfunkeyA]

@CaptKundalini

you joke is pathetic, your judgment is worse

[CaptKundalini]

@LfunkeyA For the record, the "fur sink/electric dog polisher" joke isn't mine.

It was written by Steve Martin. :)

[TheDevicer]

@CaptKundalini

You really are ignorant. Soccer's one of the cheapest sports you can play and is played everywhere, especially in poor countries.

[richyjjsmith]

@TheDevicer But soccer isn't cheap when you're playing with an electronic ball, in many poor countries they just make their own balls with tied up trashbags and such, it doesn't seem like a very practical appliance to be shipping out to help poor people

[TheDevicer]

@richyjjsmith

Well obviously they'd need philantrophic aid and to make the product cheaper to make the product more successfull. And how much do you think that ball costs? Strip down the commodity, keep the minimium, toss the rest. Simple, cheap.

[LilDLo007]

@TheDevicer He's quoting a Steve Martin bit when he used to do stand up back in his day. Though CaptKundalini's timing may be a bit off, it's nothing to get oversensitive about.

[Arat1t1]

They crashed it onto Pogobats forum?!?

[librano]

All guys automatically give Ellie that creeper stare LOL

[andreous7]

@librano The - 'OMG what a honey' stare more like lol

[badrn13]

third



[cricketbat08]

I have invented a new musical instrument, 'The Guitbone'. It comprises of a standard guitar body, with the horn of a trumpet attached to the neck. There is a rubber tube with a mouthpiece fixed, running from the horn to the shoulder strap of the guitar, so you can strum and blow simultaneously! Am I genius, or what?!!!!!!

[kibcubed]

@cricketbat08 Hmmm... That's essentially a string-based melodica.

[cricketbat08]

@kibcubed I will have to rename it, as the Strilodica!! :)

[kibcubed]

@cricketbat08 Haha, brilliant! :D

[ichbinein123]

A hedgetrimmer... with a battery... You got to be kidding me!!! How is that innovation!!! <.<

[ryuddrfreak]

Magnets HOW DO THEY WORK?

[Imortal122]

@ryuddrfreak fuckin miracles

[sincaid4]

@ryuddrfreak LOL silly meme

[rickcheyne]

Magnets are cool.  More magnets please.

[httprover]

Water on the Moon might be more valuable than diamonds. Even carbonates would be precious.
