ghost? OR magnet?

[kostas]

what is pultragyst? hahahaha

Alluminium isnt magnetic. Pop can = magnetic

I'm having trouble understanding what you are saying here. I'm guessing you say 'pop' instead of soda or coke, but anywho, a soda can is made of aluminum so isn't your statement contradicting?

And Deimos it's "poltergeist" dude

You guys know you can start a fire with the bottom of a soda can and chocolate? True stuff














of course that's a very vague explanation

oh i suck at spelling, and i got windows xp home so i don't have word, no spellcheck. anyone ever see the movie poltergeist? it was hilarios although i think it was supposed to be scary.
think steven speilberg doing a horror film.

 

[molsen]

its not really "scary"...more like thought-provoking and slightly freaky

I'm assuming this... Perhaps when you put the can down, the liquid inside was flowing from one side to another. If the liquid was moving at such a rate, it would easily move the can to the side everytime it slammed against the inside of the can. Just a guess.

I would suspect this

lol i saw that on mythbusters: you had to polish it to get out the oxides. They also did it with ice.

 

[Deimos]

Oh I love the mythbusters, such a great show.

 

[Amd2800]

I had never seen it on mythbusters, but oddly enough that particular episode is on right now lol. I saw a video of some people doing it on some random boyscouts style website originally

If you store your laptop in a very strong magnetic field, this won't happen.

Of course, it wouldn't happen because your laptop wouldn't be, er, operational - but it would rule out your computer doing the trick.


The whole "air hockey" thing is likely. All is needs is a very thin layer of water or other moisture to act as a seal to contain pressure - happens all the time to me in my dining hall.
