Organisms levitate in a 32mm vertical bore of a Bitter solenoid in a magnetic field of about 16 Tesla at the Nijmegen High Field Magnet Laboratory.

BASICALLY:
Dutch Scientists learned to levitate living objects by increasing the amount of magnetic force. Since every organism has atoms that have a tiny magnetic field, they used magnets that are 100-1,000 times greater than ordinary magnets, to repel the atoms' small magnetic fields. There is MUCH more information at http://www.hfml.ru.nl/levitate.html

And the song for all you who keep asking is Lex by Ratatat

  • This video is a favorite on Tuvalu

  • @TheMegaFracture practical use would  be for lifting heavy objects

  • huge neodymium magnets mixed with powerful electromagnets combined with ....dammit forgot what they were called ! those things where there like batteries but they pulse there energy to boost energy output. ya those things . well, anyway get all of that put together in the right way and you get this! im thinking about making a hand version of it lol, except It wouldnt be portable :( no force powers outside the house

  • @commentXrateXsubscrb This IS the big one!!! This thing's got it's own power plant to run it.

  • The used magnetic field is so strong that it aligns molecules and by that gives magnetic properties to everything in it

  • now make a big one

  • co za asy

  • 0:16 they see me rollin', they hatin'.....

  • 00:25 THATS FUCKED UP. LOL

  • I'd like to try the first human sized uber-B-field machine.
