Magnet drops super-slowly through an eddy tube

This video is not slowed down. The movement of a magnet falling down a copper tube creates an electrical current around the tube, which exerts a slowing force on the magnet.

WTF! is cornification?

This nifty little distraction came to me while I was watching an episode of DL.TV (please come back) and Robert Herron made note of the most peculiar website. It’s called cornify “Unicorns and Rainbows On-Demand” and it’s every bit as stupidly awesome as you’d expect.
