I'm automatically giving all the illusion videos with this guy a 1 for a couple of reasons.

#1 The link to the website that hosts all these vids is right after the vid ends. If we were all interested in seeing more we would type that link in our web browser. No point in wasting bandwith and server space on Spiked Humor when they are all hosted elsewhere in an easy to find website listed in the video.

#2 The guys voice annoys the hell out of me.

#3 Most of these illusions are crappy little things that you would normally buy at a novelty shop for around $5.

wow what an illusion, of course i would say thats a science trick and not an illusion but what ever. just two magnitised blocks and two non magnitised blocks are cool i guess.

Agony, almost every vid that is uploaded here can be found on another site by typing in a url. What a genious you are.

This was a cool effect, definately not an illusion as they are working on anti-gravity with magnets at Florida State University.

I know Agony everyone must share your opinion considering that every single one of these made to the front page with decent ratings. Even with you giving them a 1.

Bullet Trains in Tokyo work on this principle (levitation via Diamagnetic effect) so it's nothing new actually...

if feasible, this could be a good way to go about protecting buildings during earthquakes. 5/5

"if feasible, this could be a good way to go about protecting buildings during earthquakes. 5/5"

No, not really. You've got to consider the fact that buildings are simply too heavy for that. You would need gigantic blocks of magnets just to keep one building afloat.

Notice how 4 blocks of magnet could only keep 1 thin piece of graphite afloat.. not more than 1mm too.

Dr.Phil ever heard of air resistance.
I invented a similiar device on this same principle. its going through the US and european patent office for approval. Im thinking of puttin it into your tiolet paper holder so that you never have to push that spring thing together.
