I think this is the best real-life pendulum wave I have seen.
Thank you kwelchans, you're very kind!

I wish I understood the physics of Divergence and convergence.
@@ted001 Yes, extremely precise on the string lengths, and the frame must be very rigid!!!
Only chaos here was the music
Huh?
Hahaha
not a dio fan?
@@SabianSendenni-xh7ch Isn't that stairway to heaven wrote by Led Zeppelin (Jimmy Page) ? I don't know who's performing it here on the piano but I know it was written by Jimmy Page.
If your spirit is benevolent, and you keep moving on, even when you think it is chaotic, everything will be fine.
this is the cycle of our existence
Your spirit is benevolent... Malevolence is just temporary detours just for experience...but to return to path of light... I would say.
This is my life, going smooth for a while, then a total mess, then it starts over
And that is how you hypnotize someone for 3 minutes 😵👍👍👍
Good at first ...fuck at last
Yep
It's fucking with my brain with these balls and Stairway to Heaven song in background
I couldn't stop watching it damn
Exactly!
Ive always said, "Life is perfect chaos, but it is perfect nonetheless". This shows harmony exists in its own time. Thanks for making this video. 😗
The best GIFT from the Universe I have had. I'm a naturephile and I always look for my spiritual grounding from all things natural on my Path. This pendulum speaks to me. It gives me peace. Thank you for sharing.
👍🙏❤️
I didn't realize that the subject that kicked my ass in high school could be so beautiful. Physics.
That's cause you were not in love with the teacher. I was in love with her and after forgetting all other subjects existed I excelled in Physics. True story, power of Love if you wish, haha.
@@GreatWhiteNiko LOL. Well, my physics teacher wasn't exactly my type. He was a middle aged man who reminded me of Al Bundy.
We tried making one years ago but used smaller snooker balls and it rarely stayed in sync. for long once adjusted - this one is by far the best I have seen!
M glad u said, i ware gonna ask if snooker balls ware a future option.
Whenever I feel sad or lonely I come back to this video, the music and the motion of the balls makes me feel so happy. It makes me remember to not take life as seriously and to enjoy myself
If you blur your eyes and focus on a point on the wall behind the pendulum, you soon see that there is never any chaos to the system at all. At the times when it looks like all the balls are out of order, you'll see a pattern appear that looks like a triple (and double and quadruple!) helix rotating.
🇧🇷💖
Slowed to half speed, and pausing, I can see when there are 5 sets of 3 balls swinging together (a quintuple).
It was NEVER chaos. You only percieve it to be.
T. Skullsplitter exactly
I thought the same. There's no chaos here. No random movements.
You beat me to the punch, sir. At no point was there any chaos. I was skeptical when I read the title of the video. Order will always break down into chaos because of entropy, but order doesn’t naturally arise out of chaos. I was wondering how they were going to try to show that in this video, heh.
Edit: I forgot to mention that it was still pretty damn cool to watch though.
Exactly!!
Those who were seen to be waving were thought to be chaotic by those who were too busy listening to "Stairway to Heaven"
Frederick Nietzsche, eat your heart out!
Came for the balls, stayed for zeppelin
lol was gonna comment that
Too bad they didn't get a better pianist. Or let them do it again. Painful to listen to. And I SUCK at music.
My whole class just watched this video and we all loved it!
So did you explain WHY this happens? There has to be a formula that explains it mathematically. And if the teacher doesn't know why this happens, maybe it's time to get rid of the teacher and let AI explain it.
i saw a 1 minute version of this exact same video and i came here to see when it would settle and stop swinging but i still have no clue how long it can go, plz, i want to see it all the way to the end
Victoria Braby sameee i saw it on ig
I seen it in a ig story
I think we saw it all the way to the end around the 1:29 mark. At that point, the "chaos" started againj. Something similar around 2:55, (twice 1 min 29 secs, almost). So I think we got 2 full cycles here. But I would have liked to have watched until they stopped swing altogether.
Its very simple, it eventually stops all together. Sometimes you just have to use your imagination and not visual stimulation to come to conclusions.
Well we all know the balls are not going to swing forever. I didn't SEE them stopping. But sometimes you just have to use your imagination and not visual stimulation to come to conclusions. But there was more than one complete set of movement in there.
There is something about this demo that just seems so true. I was moved to tears by it. It seems to model being itself.
i found it moving as well john u gay af
Wow, people are so unkind. Thank you for having a heart John 🙏🏽
@Mods Are Evil "Wtf, you gay?" No. He's more evolved than you.
I started crying when it looked like dna lol
For those wondering how it works-- each of the balls are attached to different length strings (obviously), which causes their swinging pattern to become different as time goes on. At first it transforms into a sine wave due to this simple fact-- each ball is going through its own oscillation, but is synchronized with the next due to the length. The reason why the balls separate into 2 then 3 different formations is again due to this difference in length. However, this was also intentional as the balls which separate into these groups should have a string length relative in length to one another.
Yes
Is there any manipulation or it's all from that first swing?
@@familyg7 there is motorized manipulation as balls maintains their energy from just hanging up. At the end they even accelerate to greater swing.
That is against physics laws as the ball can't never return back to original height of release point.
Why it isn't shown, as there is likely a motor for each string that is computer controlled to give them timing (or just mechanical pattern, but still giving energy for speed).
It's fake
The bar the balls are suspended from is not shown, I suspect it is at a slant, with the strings adjusted so the the balls are all hanging at the same level. The furthest ball has fastest oscillation with the nearest ball the slowest.
Omg I started watching this video 45 minutes ago and I just woke up, really relaxing.
No matter the path...when we move in our own time and space...we don't collide...we move harmoniously
I'm in love and need this in my living room
i love this soooo much. keep up the amazing work!
They’re dancing 🥰💃
I counted nine changes. So beautiful our universe.
That's a really clean one. Well done.
Chaos is in the beholders definition...as the laws of physics are the very definition of the underlying order.
@Gareth Davies "....like your some all knowing being" . s/b "...like you're some all-knowing being." Well, there's at least one idiot here!
@Gareth Davies lolz you made my day
An interesting demonstration of how the brain works. As others have observed, there is no chaos in the balls' motion. Nor do they resonate into any modal patterns. The patterns you see are the ones your brain recognises, just like it is recognizing the form and patterns of letters making up these words. You are seeing patterns created by a very simple mechanism and only a dozen or so balls. Just imagine the patterns that can be created with millions and billions. That is the foundation of the universe and life.
Very satisfying to watch 👍👍
Watching this closely there is beauty even within the chaos
No chaos here --- just pendulums with slightly differing resonant frequencies. Physicist and mathematician Eugene Wigner once said: "The miracle of the appropriateness of the language of mathematics for the formulation of the laws of physics is a wonderful gift which we neither understand nor deserve."
Absolutely superb. Please make another with only two balls. I have feeling that they will eventually synchronize. I perfect harmony.
What the actual fuck. I can’t believe that this is just what physics does. In its past time. As if it was nothing. And all this time it didn’t even boast about it. Cool lad. Genuinely cool lad.
The space between each ball was calculated with great accuracy! I thought he it was cool to see the balls in groups of two or three. Red Yellow Brown and Orange go well together, as do Blue Green Purple and Black
This is amazing! Thank you!
The natural sound would have added another very cool dimensional experience and learning to this. Thank you for building it and sharing this video! 🙏😁 Would also love to see it through to it returned to how it started. Thank you, again
I love seeing how the balls start out together, start to appear to twist, move in a very complicate manner that's hard to find a pattern; then you see four 'structures' appear and disappear, then three, that then two groups. It then does that whole order in reverse before coming back to being in unison!!! And then it repeats all over again. It may look like chaos, but it definitely is NOT! OH, and those string lengths ahve to be extremely precise, and the frame has to be extremely rigid!
Is nature ever in chaos?
If laws of Nature are unchangeable, un-cancelable then probably not.
It's only our perception and our limited understanding...
Physics is so unbelievably amazing. LOVE it😁
Nature is amazing! Physics is just a representation of natural phenomenon in Mathematical form
Smoke and mirrors...
So relaxing to watch
Amazing! Wonderful! Thanks for sharing.
Something so simple and it's mind blowing
So beautiful!
That’s crazy… thanks for sharing
Beautiful.
My mind does this. A LOT! I remember in daycare when I was supposed to be napping, I couldn't go to sleep because of it. I still don't have words for it but this is what it does.
I love this!
This Universe is amazing
I can watch this all day
I need to loop this, sit my kids down and have them watch it until they fall asleep
Interesting video and nice music. In chaos, there’s order.
Quite telling isn't it? Thank you for sharing this😁👍
Thank you for sharing!
Mesmerizing!
Super jeu avec les couleurs chaudes et les couleurs froides. Le binaire, le ternaire et sans doute au-delà... hypnotique et beau.
There's nothing about chaos here. Pure physics!
beautiful, thank you!
i can watch it forever 😪🫧
WoW... I loved it!
I can watch this all day. better than ASMR
Very impressive.
There's beauty in everything
the most relaxing yet interesting video on youtube i have ever seen. bravo! can you do it with a strobe light constantly changing speed next time?
I come here whenever i have a hard time sleeping... thx for that
Just…… waw 😵💫😉😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆 wonderful thanks 🙏🏽 for your work!!!!
That was fascinating, probably the most interesting thing I've ever seen on TH-cam, would loved to take physics back in high school but my math skills were not up to snuff, dam I just threw out a set of snooker balls I thought were of no further use.
The video "A simple demo of order and chaos (and order again) - Home made Pendulum Wave with 15 billiard balls" is a sophisticated display of physics through a homemade apparatus. Fifteen pendulums of different lengths, each holding a billiard ball, are simultaneously released. Due to their varying lengths, each pendulum swings with a different period, creating a mesmerizing effect of waves that seem to move through the array of balls. This experiment visually demonstrates the concepts of synchronization, phase difference, and wave interference, akin to phenomena in quantum mechanics where particles exhibit wave-like behavior under certain conditions.
The swinging of the pendulums from a state of synchrony to apparent chaos and back to order illustrates how systems can evolve dynamically over time while governed by underlying physical laws. The pendulums' movements initially appear coordinated but quickly shift into complex, seemingly chaotic patterns, only to eventually return to a state of synchrony. This cycle mimics certain aspects of quantum systems, particularly how particles' positions can seem random and spread out but are actually governed by probabilistic laws that predict where they are likely to be found.
What chaos?
Is nature ever in chaos or it's just our perception or limited understanding of complex and intertwined (unchangeable) laws of nature.
This is a good representation of life. From my experience, it comes down to how many balls you choose (allow) to have swinging.
Its usually 2 for me, and it wasnt really a choice
@@Roscododger 😂😂😂😂😂
0:33 Notice all the billard balls with the multiples of 3 line up together in one row
So beautiful... Too good to be true...!
... could watch this for hours...btw, Stairway to Heaven was an excellent choice.
But possibly the worst version ever..
@@Team-fabulous totally agree with you on that!
@@timpace9777 reminds me of a pub I drank in back in my youth, it was never off the Duke box!!
Same here, it was never off the bloody Duke box....
Why- How- what-- that is freaking awesome
How cool is that!
I'd have to see this in person to believe it!
Nice use of stairway to heaven! Came for the chaos stayed for the song.
Super COOL!
While appearing chaotic, it never falls out of a repeating pattern. Chaos is dancing without music. Chaos is music without measures or tempo.
Beautiful to behold something falling in and out of order, but true chaos is to grab each one in turn, at random, pull one direction or the other, at different lengths, and let go. Maybe toss one or two a random direction.
Touché. Actually it shows how individual and seemingly independent harmonic oscillators can appear to be acting in groups, just as the quantum particles that make up our bodies.
Wow!!! That’s crazy how it works 😃

@@ntdtv damn you guys are annoying
its beautiful
Mesmerizing, but I want to see (where) the strings are attached...
Exactly 🤔
nothing special as to how they are attached. The magic is from the length of the cords connecting them. The closest balls has the longest cord and the farthest ball has the shortest cord. The longer the cord the greater the lag.
I'm guessing there's a mathematical formula that follows this phenomenon.
SPLENDID! Wow!
Someone, please give this man a cookie.
All rules makes our world work perfectly. Even DNA connects to the rules of physics.
Amazing... And, such is Life !!
Love it👏
Me encanta este vídeo, hace años que no lo veía
It's nice to see the original video without andpacker. Talking constantly in the background.
Beautiful
It is relaxing to watch.
Very nice, now I want to make one for myself :)
So beautiful
Mesmerizing
Nice Stairway to Heaven on Piano! 💚💚
Notice the double helix near the end.
This had me thinking about how forces can be used to separate particles into different layers by using a slow natural process.
Wow... amazing...,
Vi no twitter, tive que vir aqui elogiar. Muito bom.
...and that's STAIR WAY TO HEAVEN
'
wow beautifully color balls moves
omg stair way to heaven, I love that song
Thank you. I knew the song, but couldn't place it!
Beautiful, stairway was a nice touch!
My cat is attracted to this. Lol
