The Rube Goldberg Effect.Megan (played by Eliza Rosen) and Annie (played by Tracy Therieau) are best friends. They wake up one Sunday at Annie's house after a sleepover, and Megan remembers that she has a big project for physics due the next day that she hasn't started. She needs to build a Rube Goldberg machine with the end function of pouring a glass of milk. They gather parts from around the house and assemble it, then realize they are missing one vital piece, a pulley. Neither of them have money to buy one. The girls then embark on an adventure to acquire a pulley, which after comedic task to comedic task, turns into a virtual Rube Goldberg machine itself.Six students — Danna Rogers, Kameron Makhloghi, Andrew Marchev, Evan Lincoln, Tucker Corry and Dillon Woods — created the film, "The Rube Goldberg Effect," for their Film Making class at the Center for Digital Arts and Windham Regional Career Center. The film will premiere at the Latchis Theatre on June 21, at 4 p.m. as well as June 23, at 7:30 p.m. at the New England Youth Theater. [ More Detail ]
The guys want to watch the big game. But why does it take them more than one remote to turn on the TV??? Instead of simply buying a Logitech Harmony, they go to extremes and create their own Rube Goldberg version of the ultimate universal remote control. A guy's dream, it even opens beer bottles and puts dogs on the grill! View more at www.remotedisasters.com [ More Detail ]
For the third time in the last four years, the Purdue Society of Professional Engineers earned the top spot in the 21st annual national Rube Goldberg Machine Contest on Saturday (April 5) at the Purdue Armory.Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas, placed second, and the University at Buffalo, Buffalo, N.Y., was third.http://news.uns.purdue.edu/x/2008a/080405RubeNatresults.html [ More Detail ]
It may not be the fastest food, but teams from around the country will try their best to make a hamburger sandwich in the most inefficient way possible during the 21st annual national Rube Goldberg Machine Contest on April 5 at Purdue University.http://news.uns.purdue.edu/x/2008a/080326RubeNational.html [ More Detail ]
Just a classy record. From "Aquemini," Outkast has got Big Rube, Cee-Lo, and Erykah Badu on the track with "Liberation."Erykah stole the show here in my opinion. [ More Detail ]
A Rube Goldberg machine that is used to squish a Creme Egg. It goes around the walls of our lounge.This is an entry in Cadbury's "Unleash The Goo" competition, in which entrants must find the most creative way to break a creme egg.The music is by the Jews Brothers Band - they are awesome: http://www.jewsbrothers.co.nzHere are some answers to questions people keep asking me:- the ringing ball comes out of the red flipping box.- the painting tilts, which causes the top ball to run down it.- a keen eye will notice the egg unravels out of its foil wrapping.- at around 1:52, the balls are rolling behind a sheet of glass that is at a slight angle so that the balls have to revolve a lot just to move a small amount.- it took about 6 months to make and 3 days / 200 takes to film.Much credit must be give to the amazing Pitagora Suicchi ones for all their original ideas!

A little Rube Goldberg machine made in Garry's Mod. Inspired by rolling a Pritt Stick into a makeshift pendulum during a very exciting Physics lesson.

I figured with all the hype on those suicide videos I'd make my own worth bragging about. It took me about 4 days and 65 takes to get it right. I also have to give my friend kyle some props for the technical help. enjoy.To my fans and non-fans alike....I've read many of my video comments. thanks to those who said they enjoy my work. about half of them are neigh sayers or just individuals without respect and feel the need to peck away at ones self esteem for no good reason.Thanks to the disrespectful ones i feel the need to defend myself.FYI, why i made this video: I had a great idea one day while sitting in class(college)i love to create and i had plenty of spare time since i was in between jobs at the time.(BTW, I do have a life and am happily married).and to those who keep asking about recon, as of now no I don't has recon.In fact I didnt know it existed until i put this video on you tube and was asked by a bunch of people if i got it. thanks for all of your "votes" though, it was a huge confidence builder. it felt like 3,000 pats on the back(man that would get annoying wouldn't it?)Thanks again for all of your support and responses. I'm glad you like it, I made it for just for you.... [ More Detail ]

Chain reaction (Rube Goldberg) machine in Second Life. Multiple takes, but otherwise no effects! Made by Amsterdam graphic design students in the project 'YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE: Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Second Life'. [ More Detail ]
This was our final project for Mr. Mac's AP Physics class. Our task was to design and build a Rube Goldberg machine of some kind, and we chose to use ours to launch an Estes rocket. After multiple failures, one major design change, and two lost rockets, we had success. The video was filmed using multiple cameras and angles in order to give you the best view. While you may suspect that this was done to edit out our failures, it was actually done because it was impossible to catch it all at once. This machine did work all the way through. [ More Detail ]
Since so many people ask, the game at the end is called Snafu in the US and Screwball Scramble in the UK from what I hear. Another "simple" Rube Goldberg machine, but this one is a bit more complex than the previous. It wins a game of Snafu. I guess people could say I "cheated" by using electricity to power on of the cars, but I have done that with most of my non videotaped machines. Anyways, the steps are below:1) Insert marble into top of wood block marble game.2) The marble hits some dominoes with just enough force to topple them.3) The dominoes his another marble which rolls and skids down a Scrabble board.4) That marble hits another defective marble with a semi-flat bottom (which is how it is balancing on a downhill slope) and bounces it off down a ramp made of scrabble boards. 5) The marble hits dominoes which ascend with the help of wood block "stairs."6) The domino at the top hits a cylindrical block which slides down what is meant to be used as a marble slide.7) The block hits a bridge which has a marble just barely held on by friction and moves it just enough to overcome the friction and descend down the bridge.8) The marble enters a plastic marble game and exits through a ramp at the bottom. 9) The marble is transfered to another ramp and hits more dominoes at the end. 10) The dominoes hit a toy car/train that goes down a ramp and hits a running electric car.11) *CHEATER ALERT* The car uses electric power to climb up and around a track before falling onto (what a surprise) more dominoes. 12) The dominoes hit a wooden train set piece which topples and shakes a yardstick ramp. 13) A marble game on the end of the ramp receives the vibration of the block falling and makes a marble roll down though it.14) The marble falls upon a wooden track and creates just enough vibration to get the train on it to roll down.15) The train hits a wooden train set piece standing upright which falls onto the button to use the catapult and gets the marble inside in the winning area.Zoom in stupidly for victory.EDIT: Wow! I can't believe this got featured. Never expected to get any honors for this silly machine. Guess I'll post the honors for the heck of it, thanks all. #11 - Featured#69 - Most Responded (Today) - Entertainment [ More Detail ]
