Don’t know about the hovering coin but if they all create a negative magnetic field I can see it being plausible, can’t say I have my head around that one though.

However the batteries and the coil (not just a tube) is just how you make a magnet from a battery at all. So the metal on the end of the battery is giving contact to the coil, and the positive and negative at each end is causing the energy to travel through the coil from the front of the battery to the back, but the magnetic field created pushes it through the inside of the coil, making the contacts move, etc.

It’s basically an electric engine but inside out sort of. That’s also why I’m unsure on the spoons. Everything else is legit and some of them I’ve actually done myself like the flame down the smoke line, made a battery out of a potato once, made some magnets the manual way, etc… now I kinda want to try it, lol

The hovering coin is definitely bullshit. The positive poles of the batteries aren't even connected, and the spoons are connected together. Even if they weren't and the batteries were in circuit, I doubt the one-turn coil would do anything to the coin with the current in question. Even if it did, the coins behavior is not what I would expect from being placed in a magnetic field from a coil.

The battery with magnets in a coil should work.

The animated stickmen on the spinning disc would only be visible on camera, not in person, and only when speed and framerate are perfectly synchronized - a little bit off, and they would be drifting clockwise or counter-clockwise, a lot off, and it wouldn't be recognizable.

Yes, looking again, the stickmen are indeed drifting a little bit, so it's unlikely to be faked. But in person, you would just see a blur.

Oh yeah that ones a camera trick due to frame rate. Same with the wheel.

Yeah the batteries and spoons feel like BS to me. Can’t see how that would possibly work
