A bowling ball pendulum can be used to show conservation of energy. Trusting Physics, a willing participant (teacher preferred!) can hold a bowling ball up to their chin and will be safe as the bowling ball returns to its initial height. The bowling ball should in fact not quite reach its original height do to some loss in potential energy due to friction with the pivot point. BE CAREFUL and DON'T lean forward!
