  • if you put vodka in that glass it wouldnt stop sipping

  • Unless there was sufficient moisture in the room, like for example you put energy in [cause an energy imbalance] by cooling the water to cause unpresidented rainfall in the area of the glass, eventually the glass would lack the attraction to get the bird back for another sip.

  • i have a cat too :)

  • Potential and kinetic energy! lol

  • Wikipedia: drinking bird. It's a heat engine. Regardless, those drinking birds use amazingly complex physics for a ducky toy with a top hat on.

  • No dude, The Potencial Energy Becomes in Kinetic Energy...Also the toy moves becose the Center of Mass isn't in the axis...So it moves by the Gravity in other words...

  • rubbish 

  • Too bad I couldn't use that in my Camaro!!!

  • why don't we have mister sippy generators? (o.0) LOL

  • @Ravalat haha, i like your style, your hired

  • @Nathanchooper dude what r u saying i like your style hired

  • @Nathanchooper hey! im applying i can breathe air H2O its science now HIRE ME lol

  • @Ravalat since it doesn't create any energy. It's a closed system which means the amount of energy given and taken are the same

  • @videowatchright  Nah, I saw a guy that hooked one up to a small gen.. He was generating small amounts of electricity with it.. its actually on youtube. check it out. Generating something like 2 microamps. lol still its free energy.. although its such a small amount youd need millions of them.. lol

  • The energy is not coming out of nowhere. Wikipedia: drinking bird

  • has the fact that the water is there got anything to do with it whatsoever? I mean, would it not tip if the water wasn't there?

  • whats the big deal? it got thirsty.

  • The liquid inside the Mistersippy is affected by the energy emitted from the water...

    Try experimenting with few cc (centiliters) of waters in the glass.. and let see if it move.. if not put few more water cc and so on till you find the exact amount of water need to create the enrgy to move the mistersippy.

  • Paranormal activity!

  • i always though the liquid in the bird expands as it warms and when its rises it tips the balance, the water then cools the glass and it shrinks

  • its using heat in the air

  • @burdoch1 nah, i dont think it is cos the bird, air and the water are all the same temperature, you need a temperature gradient to create energy. i used to be enclined to think that its because the water level in the glass is higher up than that in the bird, after all energy equals mgh, but none of the water enters the bird so i dunno
