Theoria Apophasis and his claims on magnetism and gravity

There is a self proclaimed genius on youtube that has claims that he truly understands magnetism and that soon the world will have "anti-gravity" devices. Most of his youtube videos are based on photography as that is his profession - but he has numerous videos up on very many interesting topics regarding the science of magnetism.



I neither am arguing for or against this person, however his points on the issue are very interesting.

Here is his understanding of gravity:

I think Edward Leedskalnin (the guy who built coral castle) truly understood gravity and magnatism etc., I wish he would have told us his secrets.

Watching this guy now.

I like his talks.. Sometimes ; )

There is way more under the (black) sun as is commonly believed

Enjoy, there are hours and hours...

Leedskalnin's 'secrets' were levers, pulleys, and a winch.

Thanks

I have a ton to keep my mind occupied now.

You are welcome.


( In the rabbit hole ; )

It's been a bit, but I followed him on YouTube a long time ago. I don't think he can be taken too seriously since he thinks all Mirrorless cameras are little more than toys.

If he was a forward thinking guy, he would recognize the DSLR for the dinosaur that it is.

I get you, and I agree.

But at-least he is trying to think about stuff and not afraid of trying, or sharing his research and theory.
I like that, It's the bit's of pieces I like.

Conclusions? Naah.. I make my own

a reply to: TarzanBeta

I dunno, there are advantages and disadvantages to both systems, and if you where forward thinking, jumping on either bandwagon would be stupid

I mean, there is still argument to go Digital medium format too

gravity is incoherent dielectric acceleration

LMAO

almost as good as the turbo encabulator

That video is hilarious. Thanks.

He did publish some booklets, did you read them? in his Magnetic Current booklet he provides the secret to building his "perpetual motion holder". If you haven't built his perpetual motion holder then how have you been holding all of your perpetual motions?

Thinking about stuff is good. Understanding why professional scientists have the theories they do is good.

Presenting your own theory before you even understand what the professional scientists have come up with and the experimental evidence supporting it is not good. It is called trying to think outside the box without even knowing where the edges of the box are.

Ed Leedskalnin performed experiments which is good. But he never bothered to study all the other experiments performed by many others and he never understood all the insights provided by those, so his writings were not only many years behind the current understanding of his time, but also in many cases his understandings could be demonstrated as incorrect by known experiments which he had never studied nor performed.

I don't find the arguments of the man in the OP videos to be coherent.

Yes it's like that turbo encabulator. If you can't impress 'em with intelligence, then baffle 'em with BS.

He has some good ideas that are worth reviewing on magnetism. His 4th edition on magnetism will hopefully be out soon, so that he can refine some of his previous statements. That said his videos that I've seen could be abbreviated without loss of important information, though they do allow you to investigate his personality in more depth. So YMMV.

And his PMH of course... in memoriam, good ol' Ed:



The illustration unfortunately lacks the 4500 turns of copper wire on the coils (just imagine they were there)!
:-)

Eddie Leedskalnin's.. DID do a great job. However, it wasn't as "miraculous" as the myth dispels.
A knowledge of Electricity (DC/Transformers, Capacitance, Resistance, Solonoids,Wire, Coils… ), mixed with Mechanical skills in (Leverage,Pullies,Center of Mass…), as well as Stone Masonry, IN WHICH WAS HIS FAMILIES FORTE', Tomb Stone Cutting & Carving…
One could recreate the scenario.
Just as this bright & dedicated to the cause Man here…

Will have a little watch,..ty

Proverbially if one wanted to build a better mousetrap?

One would need to take a really good look at every other mousetrap that has ever been designed.


Arbitrageur point is valid IMHO.
