Self - running Bike

Perpetual motion device
The driving force for Self - running Bike is created by Gravity and applied to the front wheel tangentially causing the straight line movement. It looks like a kind of perpetual motion machine.

The Self - running Bike doesn't move while directed to Earth poles. This phenomenon is not explained yet. I'm working on it.

im a physics major, this is my favourite comedy channel

So somehow you are the only one in the history of the world that has found a way around the 2nd law of thermodynamics? are you claiming that your "inventions " are really perpetual motion machines, or just showing us some cool battery powered toys that appear to be?

Trollproject1, trolling us since 2010. Keep it up!

Why the bike is moving even without the blue wheel at 0:22 ?

Edit: In the channel's about page, he admits it's motorized.

[flamingpotato]

look at 24 seconds. he lets go of the bike and it rolls since the set is on a tilt

[brucehand]

FALSE!  At the end of the video, just before the question "True or False" is asked, the toy is picked up and then placed back on the table but this time it's pointed towards the camera but why doesn't it continue to operate? Answer: because it only works when it is rolled down hill, the whole set was being tilted from left to right and back again!

0:22 that moment when you notice the table is unbalanced xD

[thraherxbs]

Millions of monetised views. The guy is a genius.

[carlo]

0:23 explain why it moves to the right (from viewers view) without the blue round thingy ?

[smoker]

The videos title is wrong, it must be "Self - tilting Table"

[gobblenater]

Amazing how it stops producing perpetual motion the second the video ends and you set it up for a nice, final pose.
What an amazing coincidence.

[BobbyBleacher]

0:24 the bike rolls all on its own without being fully assembled. You need to make sure you're holding it the whole time while assembling before you start the illusion to give the full effect of the trick. Also, the camera shakes when the entire rig finishes its left and right shift. You need some sort of shock absorber for the camera setup.

How come it doesn't move when you placed it facing the camera?

The overall construction is very light except for one component. The blue wheel is actually a heavy weight sitting on a well balanced axle and bearing setup. The weight is given a strong spin and is set up so that in its down position it barely contacts the wheel. This provides the thrust. This is confirmed when the weight is moved to the other side, reversing its apparent direction of rotation and we see the car move the other way as would be expected. The demonstration comes to an end when the person squeezes the weight against the wheel to brake the rotation and then can be presented as not moving. Cute trick.

[warrenpinkham]

Really digging how the rotation changes.

Glad to run across this guy again, made my day. This is the most clever and coolest "physical art" on the subject of perpetual motion. I really don't know what else to call it, hope not to offend the creator, he should be recognized for his work globally. Like a modern day daVinci.
OK here is something all u commenters can ponder: Take 2 car tires, wide ones that can stand up on their own. Stand one up on a flat level surface. Then balance the other one on top of it. Now move the top one slightly off center of the lower one...What happens???

[heathmccall]

True or false? If this really could work then wouldn't the bike move to the camera at the end since you forgot to lift the upper wheel (the one you make seem that it moves which it cant) when you turned it towards the camera? 1:14

[cbojiotaa]

01:17 bike not riding, coz table cant angelled in this direction?

[cookingwithcandlepower]

He's right! It's the force of the loaded spring pulling down from the smaller wheel onto the larger wheel that is creating the power to move the unit...Nice Job!!!

[tabris]

Nice work! This works on the misconceptions that the blue wheel would generate a force equal to his weight on the grey wheel, generating momentum; but that's not how force balancing works: the weight is balanced by the normal reaction that the grey wheel generates on contact with the blue one and the reaction from the hinge in the middle. Since both forces don't generate any momentum the gray wheel should not be moving.
Got me thinking for a sec :)
