Troll Physics..Electrical Engineering


Recommended Posts

Even if the switch is a two-way or three-way, I?m at a loss.

I?m happy about being an engineer in something ELSE than electricity, because I would feel even more ridiculed by this video >_>

here's a clue, he schematic is only there to distract your thinking, that is not the circuit they are making... they make it look like an analog circuit, when its really a digital circuit, there is no "off" state in this circuit, the led's have a change to them to act like a diode plus a small transistor circuit in them in one (first clue)... the switches are a similar setup but changing voltage... take out one of those switches and put a normal STSP switch in there and this wont work as demonstrated

another thing you might be missing is the diagram if you look doesn't show the polarity of the LED's... remember with a diode, current can only flow in one direction.... they intentially left stuff out on the diagram to confuse you

Occam?s razor - adobe after effects

Evidence for it is the diameter of the light coming from the LED's. It is much bigger than the actual LED.

Also the brightness is all wrong. Look at 2:05 of the first video. He accidentally touches the wires in a way to complete the circuit. The LED's turn on, but no where near as bright. He bypassed the resister and the switches when he did that, so the lights should have been brightest then. When he used the switched, the lights would have been dimmer because of the resistor.

you know why the led was so dim? he made a higher resistance circuit, the wires themselves did not touch, only his hands, which can pass current, and the brightness of the LED's look fine to me for the type they are and being recorded and how it looks "bigger" its because of how the LED's are rounded, take a picture of an LED off and then on, it looks the same as shown in the video

Yeah they do look exactly like that... when I turn the lights off in the room. His video was in a fully lit room. Again. Occam's Razor. If what he was doing was possible, you could search Google and quickly find an answer. The lights you see are round, yet in very few of the shots is the light directly above the LED, meaning the light you see shouldn't be round the entire time due to the plastic of the LED not being perfectly round all the way around.

Just noticed in video two, the glare you see on the right and left of the LED's is exactly the same. Yet, the two LED's are not in the same orientation exactly, and are at different angels to the camera. Try this(well don't you can break a camera doing this), point a camera at the sun and change where the sun's location is in the few, the glare you see changes as a result. This is because of the curve in the lens on the camera.

you're looking for the simpliest solution to this, yet using the not so simple explanations... This whole thing is done with trickery (circuits you can't see) and polarity

adobe after effects is a solution so simple that anyone with 10 minutes to spare can learn how to do it. map a point on the original video and overlay the LED light. not very hard at all. The problem with your "circuits you can't see" explanation is that the pieces are shown to not be attached to anything else while being handled. I considered a hidden circuit on the what I assume is a table of sorts. The problem arises that in both videos the circuits he makes are constantly moving around and not always even on the surface. It also wouldn't explain that not all LEDS turn on even though they are in a direct series.

I hope you guys know that he just edited it with a video editing tool like after effects to make the lights appear.

And how exactly do you know that your theory is correct and that neufuse's is incorrect?

If you knew anything about video editing you would spot this right away. The lights are just implanted images, you can tell this by two main ways:

1. If you notice around the lights there are no colour and/or balance changes.

2. If you watch the lights you can see that they glare on the lenses in the same manner, this is physically impossible. No two lights can make the same exact glare.

Those LEDs look exactly like they're supposed to. There is no colour/balance changes because LEDs don't emit light backwards. You can even see the glare off the pen when he brings it close to the LED's in the first video.

Why would the glare be different for two identical lights :|

First off you guys are looking way to much into this video. It is a troll for a reason, obviously it is not possible. Any of you who think it is need to be slapped. Second of all, it does not matter how it works, because the simple fact it would not work in real life. As for the glare, two identical lights would appear to give an identical glare, however, you should not be able to lay one ontop of the other and see no difference, in this case there is no difference and it is just an effect in after effects and placed over each one. Not hard to do at all. I can do the same video with better lighting effects if you like just to prove this point.

Please do it, I gladly award your results, also serves to prove your abilities.

Do it. I would love to see it to compare
