Super Magnets Spin

When you throw two of these Neodymium spherical magnets together, they will just spin and spin. Shot with a Nokia 6682 camera phone.

dammit, now I'm getting duplicate comments too. Who broke YouTube?

I'm thinking that it'd be harder to getthem to spin at speed, and they would also decelerate in a shorter time, due to the viscousity of shampoo/soap and air against the viscousity of air and the tiny contact points that the spheres have with the plane they were on.

In my usual terms: Shampoo is goopy, and you can't spin around as fast in goop.

@toofuairi There's nothing wrong with an open mind. But it never hurts to pour juicy sciency goodness into your head. Knowing stuff doesn't close your mind, it opens it, lets you see farther, deeper into the essence of things. It clears away the fog of our limited senses. Our intuition can be useful but we all need to balance it with reason and knowledge to be whole people.

@willc2 google broke youtube, who else lol, silly question really

[toofuairi]

@willc2 XD thats why im in college... but im stuck in silly generals not sciences XD

sure. the original thing i said does break some of our current rules with how physics works. but does my idea, if the physics were different, work? =3

[toofuairi]

@willc2 that doesn't mean it cant happen. nor does it mean that those same physics that we have now will be thought of the same in the future.

i'm not a physicist, nor am i much of anything, but i like to keep an open mind, :P

Newton, Einstein, both have been outdated (on some things), at this point, am i wrong?

anyways... a creative mind is just as powerful as a knowledgeable one... H.P.L. used the idea of Atomic weapons long before the weapon was made... (from my understanding)

@toofuairi when you toss out current physics you're tossing out an awful lot of useful stuff. Basically the stuff that lets your computer work and keeps the sun shining in the sky. Plus its all kind of connected. Tossing out enough physics to allow perpetual motion is like tossing out all even numbers from mathematics. When you do, the whole thing breaks. No need to any way. We're swimming in an ocean of energy of different kinds. We only need to gather a tiny fraction to meet all human needs.

@willc2 lol didnt try to send multiple, youtube said try again XD

i'm saying to throw current physics out. but that doesnt mean that it wont be possible in the future.

having a closed mind is worse than making stuff up. ... (not trying to mean your close minded :P )

i gave a solution to a question. albeit a currently not possible one. :P
