Wow, none of y'all ever had a gyroscope as a kid, did you?

uh yes...i just haven't seen the tire move

i clicked on because i wanted to see how big the object was going to be

 

[PostmodernProphet]

do they even have gyroscopes in toy stores any more?......I wonder if there is a whole generation of kids who haven't seen them.......

Ive known about this since i was kid, gyroscopes etc. but it still seems like fuckin magic to me.

i mean really. HOW?

 

[Lao Tse]

can this be used to make a flying machine. Like two wheels tied together could fly, it seems like. Doesn;t it?

It is basic physics but no less astounding all the same.

uh no....watch the video again.....if he lets go of the loop the wheel falls just like everything else....

I doubt this will happen very often but we are in agreement.

tie your head to a pole, spin, and report back to us

I think i'll shit in your face instead. That should reveal some scientific findings.

They need merely to attach another spinning wheel where the rope is attached.

Duh. This is so obvious.

uh, dude?......they would both fall.....look at it this way......people have been playing with gyroscopes for a hundred years.....if it works the way you imagine it, do you really think no one would have made a youtube video showing it by now?.......not to mention an airliner?

So your argument is an appeal to historical ignorance?

You are having a laugh, right?

you may be old, but you are hardly "historical".....

No. Im totally serious.

dude....throw a rock up in the air....now, tie two rocks together and throw them up in the air....if they missed you, do it again....

Dude, explain how one side stays up when it's not attached to a string. Now double it. PResto. anti-gravity.
