Amazing Physics

I just found this video and was hoping someone here could explain why this works.

I appears to be a guy holding a magnet above a piece of metal which it doesn't stick to and then adding lighter fluid to the area aroung this piece of metal and this somehow makes the magnet levitate.?????


I am not the sharpest tool in the shed but that doesn't seem right to me. I would love to try it but I don't know what materials are being used.

It's called Superconductivity..

really cool stuff...

Peace

beat me to it.

em propogates differently because of colder temperatures...

So could this technically be considered anti gravity?

That's not lighter fluid!
That's liquid nitrogen.
It is decreasing the temperature down to the level where
that material becomes superconductive.

Well in the sense that the laws of physics allow the magnet to levitate - it's just a magnetic field - and something happens at the very low temperature - I don't know exactly how... But if you call that anti-gravity you would have to label everything that hovers as anti-gravity of some sort - like a helium balloon and a helicopter.

They have always been looking for a room temperature superconductor - that will be really interesting if they can ever make it.

not anti-gravity.

the ideal sense of anti gravity would be to negate the effects of gravity all together, not generate an aditional force acting in the opposite direction as gravity with enough strength to overpower it.

make sense?

Does this work in space ? Super cold in space no ? and no gravity
no idea what the hell I'm talking about mind you so don't bother calling me a loon just curious.

Patented before our time.
Yet the liquid air seems not to be utilized that much.
The ether transmission Tower had liquid air cooling according to
some authors on Tesla.
Now that would be some application.
I see no applications as great as that.

It's definately not anti-gravity. Like someone else said, it's superconductivity. The difference is that the magnet above the superconductive magnet cannot float past the bottom magnets dimensions. Antigravity, as far as I know, has no such constraints.

No fire but looked like steam or fog coming out of the beaker.
This is the type of demonstrations that are shown to the public.
Anything of value will not be shown.
The greatest inventor scientist the world has ever known
never did show any one a thing of value.
Tesla put together any where from four to twenty
parts together that did anything of value.
He only spoke of them.
The US government thought he was crazy and mad.
Until the US found Nazi Germany was developing the few
secrets he sold.
All locked up now and all we suspect is the free energy UFO
being one of the secrets of Tesla.
Using anti gravity as we are told by people that most likely
hold the UFO secret.
