    Well, on channel description he clearly states that those are only motorized recreations of suggested perpetual motion machines. But on individual videos that info doesn’t seem to be that readily available, so it’s not totally wrong to say that the whole channel is a lie, but strictly speaking not excactly correct either.

    Some of those gadgets would make a nice desktop toy, obviously with a usb power brick or batteries.

      4 paragraphs deep into a description that you can’t see unless you click to expand it isn’t what i’d call clear, and based on the comments on every video i clicked on, it seems to be a pretty easy detail to miss. you’ve got a good eye, though.

      ngl i feel like i’d get sick watching most of these things for more than a few seconds at a time
