The Principle of Bernoulli (Video)

Watch this crazy scientist as he demonstrates how the principle of Bernoulli works.

Bernoulli’s Principle states that in an ideal fluid (low speed air is a good approximation), with no work being performed on the fluid, an increase in velocity occurs simultaneously with decrease in pressure or a change in the fluid’s gravitational potential energy. (Source: Wikipedia)

The Principle of Bernoulli – Part 2

This guy is absolutely amazing. If someone would have given me the choice between him and any of my old physics teachers back in high school, I would have chosen him without a second thought.

I remember this guy on TV. If I had a choice, I too would have chosen him to teach me math and science. What a wonderful wit and love of science. Thanks for the memories!

Very cool – I want to go to the garage and try that golf ball thing!

Great find. It’s a shame that all science teachers aren’t as engaging as him.

I too grew up watching him on tv. I wouldn’t have admitted it at the time though, I was way too cool for that. You can see more of him here http://www.abc.net.au/science/features/whyisitso/
