Have you guys ever seen a magnetic vortex? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAl1LVPbYhY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAl1LVPbYhY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v

Those are both examples of homopolar motors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homopolar_motor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homopolar_motor In the first example, the water is acting as the "wire" as the electrolysis current flows through it. The water rotates just like the wire and drags the generated browns gas along with it.

  OK, so how is a non-ferrous material (water) being moved by a magnet? Clearly in the video of the water vortex there is a proof showing that the water does not move with an iron slug, but does move with the magnet. I might buy you a donut

    The same way non-ferrous copper is moved by a magnet if it has current flowing through it.

    The catch is that anything you run current through becomes magnetic, even though its not ferrous. Copper wire, water, ionized air, whatever. Take this unexpected effect, sprinkle in a little crazy and you've got your "new theory of physics that will give us all free energy if the government doesn't suppress it yada-yada."

Cool video, but nutjob submitter? "I have always wanted to show that there are many different "types" of "Magnetic fields" as the standard science says that there is only one "type"... THIS IS JUST VERY WRONG !!" "Magnetism is the primery force and electricity is the product of that effect, science says that is not so.. THEY ARE WRONG again.." "When a potential is applied a vortex is formed around the magnet and a spin of water takes place show through the gas bubbles.. This is very IMPORTANT as this will allow scientist to develop better, faster and more powerful machines to help the human condition.." Uhm... clicks button to collapse video information again - well, I have to admit that the video is nice. Without sound. And text.
