Created by inventor Colin Furze (previously), this is a video of a skateboard with a magnetically levitating top deck to help it ride smoother. I know, I know, it’s not a hoverboard. Unfortunately, we probably won’t have real hoverboards by the time I die again. “Not with the undead warlock
This is a video of Slow Mo Guys Gav and Dan crashing extremely powerful neodymium magnets into one another, and capturing their destruction at 187,000 frames/second. It doesn’t even look real, it looks like the sort of CGI I’d expect to see in a Transformers movie in 20 years. Such
This is a video of a Delton8 drum and sampler synthesizer that’s been built into a custom case with the addition of a ferrofluid suspended in a clear window that moves to the beat you’re creating. That’s wild, it looks like it’s about to come to life. And maybe with

That’s cool, now make one with enough
This is what appears to be a perpetual motion machine, in which a marble rolls down a ramp and is launched back to the top to repeat the cycle endlessly. Of course if you know anything about the laws of physics, you probably know I’ve been trying to invent a
This is a video of Youtuber Glen Makes modding a $30 Millennium Falcon model into a very impressive levitating version that appears to be hovering over the sand dunes of a faraway planet. The video quickly walks us through the steps Glen took to make it, which, from the best
Note: Make sure the video’s volume is on. Working similarly to the one previously developed by DAKD Jung, this is a video of a ferrofluid visualizer built by Redditor Sergey Kuznetsov featuring a magnetic solution suspended in a clear liquid that “dances” to music as a magnet behind it is
This is a short video demonstration of the ‘Maglev Sushi Conveyor’ manufactured by Furex Solutions. The unit is advertised as being both easier to maintain and clean than traditional conveyors (or trains or boats), which I believe. Plus it looks like magic, and you know how I feel about magic.
