Pythagora switch

A magazine that kept me endlessly entertained on family car trips, Games Magazine, several times ran features on Rube Goldberg machines. Rube Goldberg was a San Francisco cartoonist who devised and illustrated impossibly complex "simple machines" to complete tasks such as, say, making a cup of tea.

This video is composed of several very short (30 seconds-1 minute) Rube Goldberg machines and some very hypnotic and cheery Japanese music. Enjoy.
