Yes Geeks, it Exists: A Levitating Barbecue [Science!]

Thanks to electromagnetic induction, cooking food on a levitating aluminium plate is something that can be done. Now how cool is that?

At the Palais de la Decouverte in Paris, they showed me this experiment where a 1kg aluminium plate is levitated above a large coil of wire that is being supplied with 800A of alternating current at 900Hz. This is by far the best demonstration of electromagnetic induction I have ever seen.
