If you have every played the game Mousetrap, you know what a Rube Goldberg machine is.

Here is a cool video that follows a rather large one in action.

I still think it's funny that these machines are called Rube Goldberg machines, since the Danish Robert Storm Petersen designed that type of machines a lot earlier... but oh well, doesn't change the fact that they're fun to watch :)

Wow that is a good one. I especially like the cell phone call to the phone on vibrate.  :Thmbsup:
