2. Demonstration of a beautiful brass victorian gyroscope. Explains briefly how mass can be measured. A demonstration of angle of friction. Importance of not defining laws/rules that restrict understanding.

  • infinity? do those block weigh INFINITY kilograms??? ta fuck you talkin about you idiot

  • Oh my, these happen to be the best releases currently! The russian federal government entirely opened up to public three hundred reports! Check them out at ufosecretXnet (replace X with . )

  • Eric was a lovely guy and did some brilliant work on electromagnetic levitation, leading to Maglev trains, in the 60s when I met him at Imperial College, London.

    Sadly, he made a wrong turn with gyros (pardon the pun) and made himself look a little foolish in later life. Pity, but that's humans for you.

  • This is the same guy who gave a royal institution lecture, and then gave a similar although slightly simplified lecture for the royal institution Christmas lecture designed for children, the original lecture he gave was deleted rather than published. Although he was a well respected ELECTRICAL engineer gyroscopes come under Mechanical Engineering and the as a 3rd year student studing Mechanical Engineering I can tell you it is just a case of CONSERVATION OF ANGULAR MOMENTUM.

  • AARH NO part 3.

  • Is this a Royal Society lecture? whos the guy?

  • What, no part 3? :(

  • I deduce that you have never picked up a physics textbook! One of the most fundamental laws of classical mechanics is that linear and rotational momenta are separately conserved. Unfortunately, rotational momentum is often poorly defined in mechanics textbooks; thus causing confusion. One of Laithwaite's publications showed that he had indeed based his ideas upon such a poor textbook explanation. Being an engineer, rather than a physicist, he did not check the facts very carefully.

  • Atleast clarify why you are blasting this guy in every video.What exactly is flawed in his theory?

  • "None of it, he endlessly reminds us, is supposed to disprove orthodox science."

    So that is why he later told journalists that he was going to build an antigravity machine?
