In this video I attempt to lift a 19kg (42 lbs) wheel over my head one-handed while it's spinning at a few thousand RPM. This replicates an earlier experiment by Professor Eric Laithwaite. He claimed the wheel was 'light as a feather' and could not be explained by Newton's Laws. I wanted to find out for myself what I really felt like.

Earth has just completed a new revolution around the sun and 365,25 rotations on its own. Living in the north I wish we could move the axis of our earth toward the sun but the south is having fun and we can trust better weather is back after a few months.
An other great video is an astronaut showing a gyroscope in the ISS.
Happy new year!
As children, those of us who are "of a certain age" remember having a small gyroscope. Watching it balance on a string, handling it as the wheel spun to its heart's content, fascinated by the toy. Other than a microscope set, the gyroscope was my favorite...very fond memories!
Me too. As a kid in the 60's my Dad was fascinated with space. We had telescopes and he would take us to the planetarium. My fav toy was also the gyroscope.
Thats why Thor always spin his hammer before he rode on it.

The gyroscope does not get lighter when it is is spinning. It just feels lighter. When it is not spinning, and lifted by one hand near the wheel end, two forces are needed to lift it, one each side of the hand, both larger than the weight of the wheel and in opposite directions. That is needed to balance both the weight and the torque exerted on the hand.
we had a bicycle wheel in a set of forks and spun it with a power drill and that was fun, light but spinning very fast, it was impossible to move it against its wanted direction, felt like our arms would snap before it went against its self, hope that makes sense to you, try it, front forks, wheel in them then spin them up with a power drill, and hold the steering stem with one hand, we did long before cordless drills, new drills might spin faster now, we attached a rubber polishing pad into the chuck and ran it against the tyre,

It's very simple physics, when you start moving the gyroscope sideways, this movement will be added to the top and subtracted from the bottom part of it (depending on the direction of rotation) hence the top and bottom part of the wheel will move with different velocities and have different gyroscopic forces. A very good example on how to set up a nonlinear condition. They use it for satellite propulsion. Excuse me, positioning is the word you're allowed to use.
Maybe wrap a circle of pipe around the edges of the bell and fill it with a solution that requires separation of a compound from the solution, a device that agitasts the bell, perhaps harmonics from the steel rod part,, my trash thought four today.

Literally, it's not an AG. It is clear that the spinning wheel tries to throw its weight distributed to different direction rather than falling directly in one direction down to earth . For sure the scale will reduce (your weight + wheel) but not less than your weight.
However, love to see this as activity to be included in the graders physics experiment. 👍👍🚀🚀

It would be more intuitive, if he used a rope and circled it around really fast to make it appear to "float".
Or even one of those ribbons that they twirl in the olympics. That would make it really clear.
The bar makes this circular motion invisible, because the waves are very small and traveling through the bar.
And because the RPM is so high, these tiny waves are enough to create this same "lasso" effect, where it seems light it's "floating" by magic, but's simply the same effect you get from spinning a rope around, where it appears to be "floating".
So, he's really holding a "rope" or "ribbon", but you can't see it's micro-motions within the steel.
That was awesome buddy, can you make an detailed explanation video on secondary Precession.

The basic laws of Inertia (aka movement) at high speed to make gravity look like a simple counter weight now that was a good way to tell how it works. (Keep in mind and do not try at home for your own risk if you heed the warning or not if done incorrectly you can hurt your you and/or others).
The torque angle changes while he’s lifting the handle giving it an upward angle effectively lifting itself.

Plot twist gravity doesn't exist
When it's a dead weight your hand, wrist, arm, shoulder, torso, etc. has to control all 6 degrees of freedom. When the weight is spinning the 2 rotational DOF in the plane of the disk get prescribed. Rotation towards the ground, is very slow (let's just say it's locked out) and the precession is a constant rate. The only rotational DOF you have to control is the spin axis of the disk, the easiest direction for your wrist and forearm muscles to control. It's noticeably easier for you to lift the weight when it has 4 DOF than when it has 6.
I'm curious to find out what would happen if there were 2 flywheels one on each end spinning in opposing directions
If the wheels are of the same size and speed, then the pole will not move, it will be like a pair of stationary dumbbells.

@Limey Lemon you are aware that this is a joke, yes.
Sr. Beast, Be a real Beast, Everything Newton did 400 years ago was what all the damn physicists do, he sent an apple up and said everything that goes up comes down this is gravity he said. Wrong, there is no gravity, it is the AETHER particle, pushing down. Here the betrayal of humanity began, and from here all science began to be conditioned. These damn physicists, omitted the primordial particle AERHER, for not being able to measure their strength, now lately they started to verify that something was there and they gave it beautiful names, such as vacuum, black matter, climbing wave, etc. but they never managed to reach it, they need to break the damn laws of thermodynamics and that would unmask all the betrayal of humanity. For you to understand what I say I will send a video of a scientist, university professor and writer, it is in Portuguese, you have to activate the subtitles. czcams.com/video/C1C9dNuXX44/video.html. then, to reinforce you can read Karl Schappeller's patent description, the link on Google is The Karl Schappeller Device - Practical Guide to Free-Energy Devices, click on Read, Ok I can give you more information, if you want, just ask.

I thought I'd just go out of topic or something
Using a much stronger person, allowing them to use both hands, but also using a significantly heavier weight, could you use this technique to break a world record for most weight lifted above your head.
+martinshoosterman what kind of drill can spin 1 ton weights at 2000 rpm
Fluoride is bad for your teeth If you are attempting a world record, Then its not terribly unrealistic to get something a bit bigger than a drill.
+martinshoosterman well
wtf, in the record book it will still say "attempted with spinning weights" otherwise that wouldnt make sense
+Fluoride is bad for your teeth In theory any drill could spin 1 ton weights to 2000 rpm. It's more a question of how long it would take to bring it to that speed. In fact, if time is of little concern, a human powered bicycle could spin it up to that speed. It would take a well designed transmission though since humans can't pedal anywhere near 2000 rpm. Here's a basic design: start in a 1:1 gear and pedal up to 60 rpm, then shift to a 2:1 gear and pedal from 30 rpm back up to 60 rpm, then shift to a 3:1 and pedal from 40 rpm back up to 60 rpm. Keep this up until finally you reach a 34:1 gear, then you just have to pedal from 57.1 rpm to 58.8 rpm and then you have yourself a 2000 rpm 1 ton weight.
okokok
but
Nobody's going to care about the world record because it's simply not a world record that you would say "Wow!" on.
Better explanation of gyroscopic precession , than many universities
Counterintuitive scientific phenomenon, really incredible!
"I want the flywheel spinning as fast as possible"
Dude you waited at least 15 seconds before lifting it after the drill was removed.
I guess given the mass and speed of the shaft, its inertia would prevent it from losing speed. But then again, I get your point. :p
You can't show me inirtia . I mean it sounds nice to have something moving in a straight motion with increased speed but you should know that no expierments have shown this supposed law to work I mean we don't have something spinning no near the speed of light and continuously gaining more speed so I mean no one has shown this but everyone just says yea Its a law we can't physically show with any circumstantial evidence but yeah it works??
Arhe Amharai the hell do you wanna say?
Drive a car at 100 mph and hit that emergency brake. See what happens. Inertia, jackass.
Yea he wants it going as fast as possible so that he has enough time with it spinning. So that he can stand there with it there for a few seconds without having to rush himself or possibly injure himself. Engage your brain.
This is how Thor’s hammer was made.
Same thought
Yeah imagine this on the interior of a steel hammer. So the outside looks like a regular hammer but a motor on the inside is spinning this super heavy weight

@@sinnnful4874 then how did Odin and vision lifted the hammer
Interesting, i would have liked to know if rotating the axle the other direction would have simulated more force downward.
Nah when he spins it up as he said theres a torque that causes the rod to spin clockwise relative to him if you were looking down if you spun the wheel in the opposite direction im fairly sure all that would happen would be a reversal in the direction it spins around i.e. anticlockwise now
@@craigmccarthy6008 No, keeping the flywheel spinning the same but forcing it to encircle him opposite of procession since one way it may it easier to lift so the other way makes it heavier.
@@scottdc2105 Craig is right. The spinning of the flywheel is not making it lighter, its simply causing a spin. Reversing the direction does not affect its weight, just the direction that it precesses in
@@kingnoob5037 He did not understand my question maybe because i could have been clearer. When you force the direction of procession it creates lift of the flywheel so if you resist the procession and turn it in the opposite direction then its force is directed down.
@@scottdc2105 nah you were clear enough
that's because force of rotation becomes part of you and since you are in control of the force and you are lifting it , it becomes easy, the rotation force is connecting with your own force

Nina Thérèse Rosenørn More spinning is the solution. ヽ(・∀・)ﾉ
This is so easy to explain as in the wheel's particles beat the gravity's glue by spinning faster before getting caught up by the earth's gravitational pull but the real info to extract from this is the fact that i was right about the particles of the vacuum of space being reachable to disconnect from all kind of forces and accelerate at will in space ( not time).. .
That is the kinetic energy( weight and radius adding a, speed is a total of momentum sometimes the kinetic force turns on the radius wall compress to the inches or even centimeter depend on the speed but the momentum maintain its normal stage as a pole south and north
He says keep spinning it! Then waits 30 seconds talking while it loses half of its momentum. ??
Hahaha I thought the very same thing

he needs to wait becay’use of the centric weightless pendlum whos willing to gain speed while gravity want it to take it as half of the rotation, Thats why he needs to wait 39 sencond

I recall watching Professor Eric Laithwaite demonstrating this on a much larger (and more dangerous) scale in the 1974 Royal Institution Christmas Lectures, televised on the BBC. Search youtube for 'Eric Laithwaite's lecture on gyroscopes'.
Pretty sure I used his exact design.
Veritasium i dont think he watched the video lol
This video is linked to a paper which the above demonstrators had published in The Physics Teacher. They were too polite to say so, but the gist of the paper was that Laithwaite was a liar.
I think "mistaken" would be a fairer assessment. He thought he'd discovered a new 'anti-gravity' force, but eventually conceded that the gyroscopes did obey known laws of physics.
John James Nope: I would still go with 'liar'. I have made a detailed study of Laithwaite's 'career', and this was far from being an isolated incident. He backed all sorts of crackpot ideas, persistently derided physicists, and concealed the sources of his own 'discoveries'. He must have known very well that this demonstration was nearly 200 years old. I consider Laithwaite to have been the worst case, of a crackpot infiltrating the scientific establishment, since Trofim Lysenko. And I shall be saying that in a forthcoming book.
STEP 1.
Increase the speed of rotation around the body.
The gyroscope begin to rise due to the gyroscopic effect.
The arm feels the full weight of the gyroscope, but remains motionless.
The axis of the gyroscope tilts.
STEP 2.
Decreases the speed of rotation around the body.
The gyroscope begins a slight falling motion.
Immediately lift the gyroscope rod, which is no longer heavy, until it becomes horizontal.
The two steps are resumed.
From these combined movements results the SUBJECTIVE feeling that less mechanical work has been done to lift the gyroscope. In reality, the mechanical work is the same, but forces with other orientations come into play.
Watching this in 2021: So when he was standing on the scales at the end... was it heavier or lighter or the same?
Yes.

Sir i'm watching your video for the first time...
Love ❤️ from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Him: now I want it to be spinning as fast as possible to give me the best Chance of success.
Also him:(waits like ten seconds before lifting it over his head)
Yup, I was thinking why he don't say all those stuff, before or during the spinning up. Not after. 🙄
It's so triggering
I know right
Wendy’s it almost compares to the pain of eating Burger King
100th like is me
40 pounds at the end of 1 m bar? What kind of twisted measure system is this?
+Ciprian Popa Seems like something we here in Britain would do.
Mixing imperial and metric...
+Harichi Kashanami You monsters...
BerlingSwe Try to read better and use your half brain. Maybe you missed something.
Ciprian Popa i missed nothing. he clearly says kilogram in the video
Oh dear.
9 years passed. It is still in good condition
This was demonstrated in a programme for schools by Prof George Porter in the 1970s.
This guy is obessed with senseless countdowns.
right why does he do that lol
To calm his nerves. 🧐
*senseless.

🤣🤣😂😂
Image a guy running into war with an anti gravity wheel.
That would of been awesome we could of win world war 2
He would be killed by the first opponent that would lay eyes on him lel
Imagine being 300yds away with a lee enfield.
@@jay71512 🤣😂
He died very quickly
Maybe the flywheel is canceling the constant downward pull of gravity. Did your scale measure your weight plus the flywheel or your weight alone? What if you constructed a machine with mercury instead of steel as is proposed for flying saucers?
It is fun when this principle is used to make a flying soccer alien flying ship with using small wormhole creater that latest techno nd mercury as a fuel to that and we Indians had built a building or to be exact our temple look like flying ship could carry 50 people I just remembered that carving in that temple watching this video
That what you said and I today rewatching this video thought of the same...brother someone must make something out of this
No, it doesn’t cancel gravity. We know the dynamics of the problem and can predict what will happen with math beforehand.
Did you know that all rotating metals induce a electrical current, Earth induction coil, I also think that the anomaly of a coil attach to a rotating magnet still creates a electrical current is connected to this as well
In my head im like “just put it over your head before it stops spinning dude”
Hah yeah i was the same, i literally said "just do it man"
what would happen if you got a two sided fly wheel and spun each side in opposite directions?
nothing would happen.
did u heard about hitlers ufos?
I thought something would happen
and yes I have
Darlok Libac it might weight lighter because of the speed of the wheel but it won't really change anything. 100 pounds, speed it up the sides, probably 50 or 10.
Definition of antigravity: objects with static mass do not move along the direction of gravity; instead it moves perpendicular or against gravity direction. How to achieve it: the angular momentum vector of the object with right hand rule perpendicular to gravity direction.
Love how a song by the band Pendulum is playing when he lifts it above his head
Who else got this in their recommended 5 years later?
punchingjack Lord me
Me
Me
*COPIED*
me
I know i'm 3 years late, but the sound that it makes sounds so cool
Edit: shi, 5 years?
I got a Flux capacitor in the garage ! we can go back in time
yupppppp YUUUUUUP
This is one of active videos so you are not late
Im in 2019 while this guy in 2017
Sketch of SRK.
👇Watch it awesome video.

@veritasium - He was obviously trying not to die or injure himself... so, for better results in this experiment he'd probably need to aquire or assemble a gimbal/counter device's so the fly wheel isn't running away... or, move with it with more precision (at the "correct speed") or a platform that that rotates along with the flywheel rod.
Well done mate
