Default Hutchinson effect - Anti-gravity

http://www.americanantigravity.com/a...ental-Research

I find this stuff very interesting.... havent read much into it though..the video link on this is crazy.

MOD EDIT: Link contains NSFW content: http://www.thatvideosite.com/view/1798.html

Here is a link that shows stock footage from the past...


this site itself is also quite interesting as it talks alot about current research into wormholes and anti-gravity and other futuristic tech.

Strange, I guess if it were in fact anti-gravity, wouldn't all the objects be affected? Not just a select few (ex water from the cup, but cup stays there).

Only the objects with strings attached to them were affected.

*cough*

That's pretty cool. Especially with so many porn/sex links on the video site

The video is good just for that one shot of the guy with the glasses, afro and pipe.

I hate to be a skeptic, but the rest of it looked like some pretty low-rent special effects from the 70's. The levitated objects looked more like they were "falling from the ceiling" rather than "levitating from the ground".

Yes... there is some skepticism behind the video's but i have been unable to find if it is actually doctored. Just alot of arguing between physicists over its validity. i just thought it was neat.

Overall, it is interesting....

he admits to faking some, but not all of it....

Lol, where's the arguing of physicists. I'd like to find one credible one that has given it more than 10 seconds of their time.

In life it's innocent until proven guilty. In science it's false until proven true. And even then it's probably not true, just our best understading of reality at this time.

Question: What's up with these link banners? How do I get my hands on some?

Edit: Never mind, you just have to click on them!

My question has absolutely nothing to do with the subject but, what is NSFW about the video? I watched it and didn't see anything innappropriate.

Some of the links/pics around it are NSFW.

Just put the image tags next to each other with only a space between, rather than enter.

ie:

Code:
 [img ]http://whatever[/img ]  [img ]http://whatever[/img ]
 [img ]http://whatever[/img ]  [img ]http://whatever[/img ]
