This is awesome! You need to cut off about 15% of the slinky. Then it'll slink down the escalator a bit faster, and maybe it can stay in the same relative spot indefinitely! Perpetual Slinking Machine! At least, perpetual until the escalator gets turned off...
Perpetual motion defies the laws of physics and thermodynamics, it doesn't exist. There always has to be an energy input to make it do what you want it to do. But that energy will gradually decrease over time. If you ever see anyone showing a video of perpetual machines, ask them to play that machine again and watch it (even if it takes a year), and it will stop.
+fidel diaz slinky is probably to long and big for it to work here. The escalator would have to be moving at a slower speed perhaps for a slinky that large.
***** No way! Slinkies work best when they're smaller than the width of the stair. Try it with a regular set of stairs and a standard size slinky. They will throw themselves over the ledge, no matter how wide it is. I recommend doing this with a slinky about half as big as this.
Jacob Potafiy Its not the escalator that is fast, its that slinky that is making others and especially you complain, it was just *TOO BIG* that it took time to go to one level to another.. -like if you agree-
That’s funnier than every episode of “Full House”, Bang Bing Theory “ and “Friends” combined. (I intentionally got the “Theory” title wrong...Stupid show...stupid title). Now, the ESCALATOR SLINKY and its main two stars (the operator and the actual Slinky) plus the cameraman is real entertainment. Thank you for posting.
@@JFZeb oh yeah, they used a slinky on an elevator as a metaphor to show the balance of living vs dying. While an organism lives and has a continuous source of energy, the slinky will keep going on the escalator. On the other hand, the slinky reaches the top of the escalator when you die.
That's to sum it up lol, I'm not very good at explaining things but I bet a lot of people were curious after seeing how a slinky can go forever on an escalator (as you showed in this video, thanks a ton for this by the way!), and so they came here haha.
I loved my rainbow slinky, until it tangled.
Same XD
Ikr
same
rotate both sides until it untangles.
Kat McGee easiest way to untangle a slinky is to follow the ring or look it up on RUclips
RUclips has all the answers
This is awesome!

Ken24 Gaming i think that energy is gravity here. but idk
That escalated quickly.
*BA DUM TISS*
Bibasik7 get out
PUN MASTER
The pun thouh
I kept blowing my scren thinking it was a hair -_-
I wanted the slinky to go down the whole way
ThunderPlays_MC //TPM I wanted the slinky to go on an infinite loop.
Its impossibul
ThunderPlays_MC //TPM same
He needs a slightly smaller slinky to make it go even further
ThunderPlays_MC //TPM same
If the escalator was a little slower, that slinky could achieve true perpetual motion.
the escalator is powered...
Judge Eternus| it is not the escalator it's the slinky it is so big
Not really. . . there's still something bringing it up.
No its actually too fast cuz the slinky is too big to catch up to its speed
where did you get the slinky from
i fell down an escalator for ten minutes one time. it was terrible.
Same lmao lol haha
Ouch that hurts ALOT!
i me too i drop down to eleveror too

I feel you
JG-77 that got dark real fast
Wait Your name is Bacon? WHAT ARE YOU A PIG?
JG-77 Then you've got to spend 5 long minutes untangling it /:
But after that it's even more fun !
did anyone else get this in there recommended section?
Me
I did
Hi Vvvaal everyone did
JustJaxxThatsAll yep...
*Their
Now we're got a solution for infinite energy
You need to power the escalator somehow
Luke Loveland While the shit is spinning it will also power the escalator
Paul Francis Goneda You're a special kind of stupid aren't you?
Luke Loveland Nope I'm a genius. I'm the first person to think of this
+Paul Francis Goneda how the hell are you going to harvest the energy from the slinky
Slightly slower elevator, or slightly shorter slinky, and it would actually never stop.
meh, cutting it shorter would probably make it lose its way to gain momentum
Was that a chicken or roster...
1:05
1:17
1:23
idk but that is rooster not roster
Joshua Ioane Sounds like chicken sounds
Lol definitely a rooster😂😂😂
the answer is or
Le salio tremenda gallina 😂
1st why does this have so many views
2nd why am I one of them
*slowly claps* I'm with you
+Roshaan Thomas cuz we thought it was cool to see the slinky go down infinitely down the escalator. (at least for me idk about you)

LemonOVA you are a person of much culture cause I see you in almost every video I watch
LemonOVA >when you comment on a famous video but you didn’t get a shit ton of likes
Your everywhere girl...
well that escalated quickly
+Luke Valentino It actually *de-escalated* quickly.
+Ethan Rolfe Point.
+Luke Valentino You could say it was an *uphill* battle.
Oh god the pun are escalating to a whole new level
+Jonathan Alexander that joke had great pundamentals
If it had good proportions, it has a good potential to go infinitely.
San Yosef Lyudvikov wont wlrk cuz the escalator is too fast
That's why he said "If it had good propertions"
or until the escalator stops.
Maybe if he cut it in half so it didn't take as long to... um... slink?
San Yosef Lyudvikov technically speaking it can never go infinite but it has a good potential to go on for a very long time
now they need signs saying dont play with slinkys on escalators
ETFxSilent Agreed.
This guy probably made 10s of thousands of dollars of ad revenue filming a slinkie.
I don't think this video is monetized
there's no ads tho...
GUYS I GOT AN AD ON THIS VIDEO ! IT IS MONETIZED !
To entertain us
the video isn’t monetized
I can just imagine how much fun that Slinky is having :)
It's too big! If it were smaller, it might match the pace of the escalator.
That's what she said
Jalen Rose wat
The smaller ones might run the risk of coming down at the back of the step, then being too far from the edge to go down.
***** No way! Slinkies work best when they're smaller than the width of the stair. Try it with a regular set of stairs and a standard size slinky. They will throw themselves over the ledge, no matter how wide it is. I recommend doing this with a slinky about half as big as this.
Same lenght,just shorter diameter?
The title should be "Slinky + Escalator = FAIL
Ikr
Nuclear Ic3 Cube yeah ikr
Nuclear Ic3 Cube it really fails around 1:40
Awesome! So satisfying!
You're lying
cut the slinky down some with scissors or something bit by bit until its adjusted to the speed of the escalator and will continue going forever
Act29Productions
That'd be slinkycide! (or at least mutilation)
Tony Tudor lol yeah dud
thought about that too, but wouldn’t it just become less flexible.. (maybe when the height becomes lower than[something])
so unsatisfying i thought it would go infinitely but the escalator was too fast...
Jacob Potafiy no the slinky is too big and I believe all escalators move the same speed
Just get a slinky that is roughly half the size and then we are talking.
Jacob Potafiy same
Mar Fung prettymuch but there are variations
Jacob Potafiy
Its not the escalator that is fast, its that slinky that is making others and especially you complain, it was just *TOO BIG* that it took time to go to one level to another.. -like if you agree-
its 2 A.M and im watching this when i have a math final in a couple hours
GamingXP ,how did you do?🤔.
Lerz lol i once thought couple means 2 and several meant 7 omg i was like 7 back then
GamingXP Well, at least you've got your priorities straight
i can relate
GamingXP did you pass?
You should to this in China's escalator, that would be on the news
With this logic, WIN - Escalator = Slinky
You made me laugh XD
+KingRyt The only intelligent comment is also the funniest
Rit
Haha! Clever.
horribly slow slinky + escalator = fail
if the slinky was smaller it would have went longer... just saying
Gsw
???
OfficialMasterMineR Gsw, apparently.
no........

In awe at the size of this lad. Absolute unit
Why did this show up in my recommendations.

The question is... Why not?
In the end, Escalator always wins

That was all my childhood dreams fully realized, THANK YOU
everybody gangsta till the slinky starts walking down the escalator
Ah, things like this are the good old classics that bring a smile to my face.
Well done, sir!
you know you're the master of procrastination when you end up wondering how you are looking at a video of a slinky going down an escalator...
Now if we could harness the energy from this, the world’s energy crisis would be over!
Lol
The loss of energy to keep the escalator on will be greater then what you can generate.
Nice idea tough.
*****
you obviously dont understand the concept of a joke...
***** especially dwarf slaves, they don't take up much space and we can hide them under the escalator.
***** The possibilities are endless;D
"some people are like slinkies. Not really good for much, but bring a smile to your face when pushed down the stairs."
This is what ive always wanted to see
Now I would wager this might have gone over better with a smaller goddamn slinky.
That.... Was..... Beautiful!

he will never be able to get down escalators
So you can shove him down the stairs?

Now you listen here, sonnie. This slinky got more exercise than all of it's brothers and sisters ever made. This isn't trauma, it's TRAINING!

I have to study for exams what am I doing
Watching a slinky go down an escalator
i came here because of Kurtzgesagt's analogy on how life is like a slinky on an escalator
And just like with life, the slinky's path on the escalator is a bit chaotic and the escalator always seems to win in the end.
Well that escalated quickly..
Aren't leprechauns supposed to wear green?
I'm here vecause of kurgesagt or however you spell it

Yep me too lol.
If only Einstein had thought of a thing
And they say perpetual machines don’t work
Omg this is awesome! Guess what I will be bringing to the mall next time I go?...a slinky.😏😎
Anyone find this oddly satisfying?

nope
Awesome Gamer no
Nope
What walks down stairs and comes in pairs and makes a slinkity sound? A spring! A spring! A marvelous thing! Everybody knows it's a Slinky!
There really is a god.
And he keeps putting this shit in everyone's recommended...
0:01 okay, we're filming
Dead internet theory aah comment
Bro had a vision 💀
That poor slinky! all it was trying to do was reach the bottom and u give it an escalator. Thats cruel!
That’s funnier than every episode of “Full House”, Bang Bing Theory “ and “Friends” combined. (I intentionally got the “Theory” title wrong...Stupid show...stupid title).

Escalator wins
I bet you've never seen a slinky end at the top of stairs before
Roosterrock
😎
Here's the thing with the escalator tho.... It will go down more than the original showing length of the escalator, meaning even more joy
Who's here cause of Kurzgesagt?
Me lmao, was curious as many people probrably are.
Did they do something on this?
@@JFZeb oh yeah, they used a slinky on an elevator as a metaphor to show the balance of living vs dying. While an organism lives and has a continuous source of energy, the slinky will keep going on the escalator. On the other hand, the slinky reaches the top of the escalator when you die.
That's to sum it up lol, I'm not very good at explaining things but I bet a lot of people were curious after seeing how a slinky can go forever on an escalator (as you showed in this video, thanks a ton for this by the way!), and so they came here haha.

do a part two and use a smaller slinky...k?
or else...
If this escalator would be going any slower this Slinky would be slinking forever
