The drinking bird was so amazing!
who inspired Dr.Billings
I love this video
Good information!
I love this thank you
I can tell I’m gonna love these science live videos!
I liked R-51’s perpetual motion machine. LOL
I enjoyed learning about perpetual motion and how it works. Thank you.
I loved it and I thought the 3d printer was cool!! Im learning something new everyday!
How long do you think until humans can harness the power of the earth rotating on its axis?
What happens if the drinking bird overheats?
I liked the way he explained how perpetual motion works
The livestream was amazing as always, very interesting. I can’t decide if I enjoy the facts about technology and its history, the science facts, or the explanations of recent advancements in technology more.
Would perpetual energy help the fight against global warming?
Can you add closed captioning on the videos after they’ve been recorded please.
I loved the drinking bird!
The drinking bird was amazing 🤩🤩🤩
To answer the last two comments first. [Comment1. It currently isn’t possible for humans to harness the power of the earth rotating on its axis. Comment 2. My guess is the drinking bird will stop working or the liquid in the drinking bird would explode.] For my question, where can I get the tools to make drinking birds? They were so coooool!
Wow! Science is amazing!
Why does it overheat?
Can you show R.51 more please?
I love Science Live videos!
Why are the drinking birds not considered a perpetual motion machine?
Hi! Skylar’s question really got me thinking what does happens if the bird overheats? But i’m also wondering what happens if the bird gets to cold will the water still evaporate?
perpetual motion is very interesting.
The different inventions really show creativity though! The clock that hasn’t been rewound is pretty amazing.
I have watched this video twice and again and again I find it interesting and learn something new.
I love this!
I am fascinated by perpetual motion!
Very awesome
Great video
I have always wondered how those drinking birds worked. Fascinating!
Loved the Ventioneering Club segment! Was really interesting to watch.
Very interesting! I never quite considered how the dipping birds worked, but they’re actually rather interesting, the “Perpetual emotion machine” bit was also great
It was very good! I love science video!
I didn’t know how those birds worked before this, and now I do!
I like the way you explained perpetual motion with a fun example like the drinking birds.
Your comment about you don’t get something for nothing. My parents say this all the time!
How can a machine be created that defies the laws of physics?
this is intresting
Awesome Sauce
it was very cool!
this was a awesome episode
Love this
I love your videos.
Really good information on energy
Awesome video.
Its pretty amazing
Gravitational energy is very interesting!!
that video was sooo cool I love science live 🙂 lol
I Found This Video Very cool
I think it is very interesting how the drinking birds work:)
I like science!
I wonder if we ever will make a perpetual motion machine that works!
i found this one very cool and i loved the drinking bird
This is my first episode lots of information very interesting!
I think perpetual motion is interesting and I’m glad that I could earn a science credit.
I really loved the video about the wright brothers it was pretty interesting!
Great video
Why do we never see R in the R-51 videos?
Do you believe in perpetual motion
Good information.
The reason that drinking birds aren’t perpetual motion machines are because the water in the container will eventually evaporate and the birds will stop drinking,
“we need a italian ” that dude is funny as heck
I liked the drinking bird
I liked the drinking birds
Very good!!!!!!!!!
Loved it!
I signed up to be in the Ventioneering club.
this video was awesome
This was very entertaining!!
I’ve always thought about how perpetual machines work, this was a nice explanation to the topic, I enjoyed watching this and encourage you to keep making these.
This episode was very creative in the way it was made, Nice work! I enjoyed learning about perpetual motion machines and the difficulties of them working.
I loved this video it was so much fun and it was really funny
I enjoyed watching.
Enjoyed this video. I am a huge Einstein fan was excited to see that he studied perpetual motion.
science is really cool
I like the birds moving up and down!
The way that the birds can move up and down without power is amazing!
I really enjoy learning about science
I love science live videos, always entertaining.
i liked learning about perpetual motion and im glad im using acellus
I always wondered how those birds worked.
Thanks for explaining it.
So informative!
😂 Perpetual Emotional Machine
Social and be emotional 😅
I liked this video because I got more information on the “Drinking Bird”.
so cool i love this!
what happens if the machines over heat? what could be the damage?
I thought this was a cool episode.
The birds are cool!
This was an amazing episode very intriguing! I learned something new today!
This is a super cool episode
I thought that lamp was a great idea! I guess not… Interesting facts about energy.
im excited for this episode
loved the drinking birds !!
I just love the music and intros and R-51 and Tobias and Dr. John and Billings and Pajet. It is all so fun!
Great commentary and presentation!
That was one of the best Science Live videos I have seen in a while! Thanks Acellus!!
I love the way you explained perpetual motion machines in a way I can understand, thank you.
i just love it the ways r-51 so much.
Video was very interesting, thank you.
I think the drinking birds are really cool, I never knew how they worked.
I liked the water birds at the end.
Very informative!
Thanks for telling us how the drinking birds worked!
So cool ngl I love science
I love the way it talks about all the different types of energy and gives you examples
If a perpetual motion machine was created It would solve a ton of problems, but new problems would arise and some problems would still exist.
It was really interesting to learn about perpetual motion
I really liked learning about the bird dippers
I LOVE the drinking bird! It’s cute and brilliant! In my opinion it’s the best part of the episode in my opinion!
I’m very interested in the history of perpetual motion machines. What are some other examples of scientists in early history attempting to create perpetual motion machines?
I love your videos!!!
I really liked the video of the wright brothers.
I loved learning about perpetual motion!
R. 51 IS NI (no intelligence)
In the Acellus store, I can’t see the magic cards
This is the first episode I watched. What an episode! The Pajet Motion Machine was absolute GOLD.
Why are we not using hydrogen engines today?
Why do we not use hydrogen engines in our cars today?
I knew R-51 liked Lady Pajet Monet
My favorite part is the homeschool best practices! It’s so cool!!
thank you for showing me what perpetual motion is. I appreciate it
R-51 needs some more air. He needs to be on more science lives.🤘
✌ r-51
I didn’t know sound was a type of energy
😆 R-51 is so much fun
Yeah it is so fun
My question is why are we not using hydrogen engines cars today?
I liked R-51’s perpetual motion machine. LOL
So when the engine turned the alternator, it didn’t produce enough electricity? Do you think there would be a workaround to power the electrolyzer in addition to the alternator, such as solar panels or some way to give the car extra power?
I Love your videos
R-51 hahahahahahahahaha he is so so so so so funny R-51 needs to be in more SCIENCE LIVE
That was the most coolest one yet
this video is so so cool
don’t worry dr b my brain is like fort knox to
Those birds are awesome!
I really liked the drinking birds. They were cool because they went down to drink water.
Very interesting learning how perpetual motion works
How come my Sign In For Credits won’t work. I keep trying, like my name is Gavin Laatsch, and I’m in 7th grade. So I put in my regular information. Which is Glaatsch then 7grade. Help!!
Perpetual motion is fascinating
the drinking bird was cool
love the drinking bird
Perpetual motion is so interesting so interesting
this video was so cool
Those birds are cool.
That was very impressive for what I saw
So fun I love the science lives
The birds were interesting.
