Chapter 295 - Rube-Goldberg-ism
Sometime back, I was watching an episode of Pitagoras Switch, and that's when I learnt about the Rube-Goldberg machines - which is a very difficult name for an overengineered device, which performs just a very simple task - like press a button for example. But there are some really wonderful machines out there though, of which, these two were particularly impressive:
The Honda Rube-Goldberg advertisement... Damn cool I say.
And this one. All the setup just to get a nice bowl of Ramen - but it's still damn cool nonetheless and I could just watch it over and over again.....
Just something for your Saturday afternoons... =)
