If you put that copper pipe in the freezer, it will stop the magnet completely. The electrons in the copper behave much more radical in the condensed state, once the copper is below 30 degrees Fahrenheit. The magnet stimulates the frozen electrons but they have nowhere to go, so they stop the magnet. Try it, experiment!

Make a large copper pipe run an electric current through it to generate a magnetic field then make a magnetic fan that will float and spin at high rate of speed in the center.
it would fall faster because the magnet would be less magnetic and therein induce less current therefore less gravitational potential energy is converted to electrical energy.

BRAVOOOO!! Standing ovation for this! I have that exact neodyn' magnet...they are incredibly powerful...I have 2, when connected they are nearly impossible to separate. So to see this was absolutely phenomenal...! I'm getting mine to do to this! thanks for sharing awesome video...!
Could you film it with a thinner and a thicker pipe? According to my calculations the Mass of the pipe will have an impact of the way the magnet falls through.
I understand that like in an electric motor that has magnets in it. When you manually spin the rotor which usually has copper windings on it. That actually produces an electrical current within the copper. If you short out the two + and - on the motor it's a short circuit which is why you feel resistance when turning the rotor at that point since the energy is going somewhere. When you purely short it out the electricity in the copper actually just creates a magnetic field. What you are seeing in this video is similar in principle I think.
+ziongite The same is seen for running the motor. When you pump electricity into the + and - of the motor it creates an electromagnetic field around the copper coils. This field reacting with the outside magnets field is what creates the spinning. Of course some motors don't even use magnets and use electromagnets for both the rotor and stator.
+ziongite Basically the magnet falling through creates current in the tube. But the tube is simply all one thing like a short circuit so the phenomenon of it changing the energy into an electromagnetic field it seen. This field is what slows down the magnets decent.
This experiment is a good way to illustrate the cause for resistance placed on a generator by the current drawn from it's load. I may use this as an easy visual for explaining such things to children. Thanks for the idea. What I find most interesting here is the diversity in posted comments. I see a significant number of people who understand the effect, and like me, were still somewhat tickled to see it in action. There are those who understand the effect and feel compelled to belittle others who don't have a grasp of the inverse relationship between magnetism and electricity, simply for trying to understand.

I don't think you can compete with such popular tales as say "over unity magnetic motor/generators" by showing people interesting effects of experiments that don't break the laws governing matter and energy in this universe when the species is wired to believe nonsense. People today are so much more willing to "believe", than to invest effort in trying to "understand" why things are as they are, and how the universe works. For those who are intrigued by your video, and would like to further their understanding, I would recommend they they try this experiment for themselves. Unlike the thousands of prank video's out there, this one is genuine. Well, it fits my working model of the universe... Unless the knowledge and understanding that makes me proficient in my work, which subsequently puts food on my families table suddenly becomes "wrong", there is no reason this experiment should not work exactly as shown in your video.

I'm going to make a large scale version of this copper tube wearing a neodymium body suit and have my friends over and be like brb gonna go buy some toilet paper. *floats down copper tube* Lol.
change in magnetic flux -> induces eddy current -> lenz's law states that current induced is such that it opposes the change the created it -> eddy currents induce magnetic fields that oppose magnet (conservation of energy) -> why its slow. simple.
A Proposition for NASA: (Used for interspace docking or re-entry of earth atmosphere) If NASA made a long wide copper tube that gradually got thicker as you declined in distance to the ground and put it at an angle, when a spacecraft entered the tube it would gradually slow down. we would line the exterior of the spacecraft with magnets strategically spaced for equilibrium during flight.

Use Samarium cobalt magnets for they have higher resistance to heat 2. For those thinking that the magnets would be to heavy, we could counter by making the magnets smaller, and increasing the size of the eddy resistance copper tubes. 3. as a side note, not only copper works for the tubes, but so does aluminum, bismuth and many other non-magnetic substances. 4. For those inquiring about how the magnets may corrupt hard drives and in flight navigation systems, NASA would implement iron ferrite sheets to cover the space craft; therefore reversing and neutralizing the eddy current/ magnetic field, and stopping damage to computers. 5. In addition, NASA may consider using electromagnets instead for better control of the craft. 6. For inquiries on iron ferrite meteors being attracted to the Shuttle, refer to FAQ #5 about the electromagnet. 7. For those concerning about cost, the induction copper tube may be costly, but it would work for *ANY* size spacecraft that would liberally fit into the tube; therefore making the copper induction tubes extremely reliable and practical. 8. The reason why the copper tube is angled and is exponentially and gradually becoming thicker toward the bottom is so that the G forces experienced would be no greater than 3-5 G's (Very normal for even F16 Fighter jets traveling at Mach 1.5 while doing limited maneuvers like in the case of a spacecraft) 9. The amount of force being taken on the actual copper tube would be supported. 10. By the way the copper tube would be rather big, so this is no small project. In effect with all of these statements said, this system would be highly reliable. If you agree with the suggestion please like this comment!

With all due respect ... this is nothing new or unique. Before digital speedometer indicators were developed, eddy current devices were used to translate the torque of a magnet spinning in an aluminum drum against the force of a spring into the movement of a needle on a dial on your dashboard to indicated the speed your vehicle was going. The rotation usually came from a gear engaged on the output of the transmission that ran a flexible drive cable in a housing and that attached to the spindle turning the magnet. This technology reaches back to the beginning of the LAST century! Let's have something new! ... please! The technology is now being employed as a speed brake on some rail systems.
The magnet would fall even more slowly if the pipe was made of silver. If the pipe was made of a superconducting material the magnet would fall into the pipe and remain suspended inside.
+bob s That would only be true if there were no losses to the current inducing the opposite magnetic field. With an ideal superconductor, the resistive losses are indeed zero in a linear current. But there would be other losses, like simply the fact that the current is flowing in a loop. Not much, by any means, but there would be some. Whether it would be measurable losses within reasonable time, that's a different question. Any losses in the current cause a reduction in the magnetic field opposing the direction of movement, which would require the magnet to move - albeit very slowly - to maintain the induced current in the pipe. Basically, the lower the electric resistance of the pipe's material is, the less power is required to keep up sufficient current to maintain an opposite magnetic field. So when you reduce the resistance, the speed at which the magnetic equilibrium is reached is also reduced. So while a superconducting pipe may create an illusion of the magnet being suspended and levitating, I would expect the magnet to very slowly sink in a long duration test.
+Buck Schaffenhausen In the case of a superconductor the initial magnet movement would induce a circulating current that would create a magnetic field that balanced the magnets field. Being a superconductor the circulating current would flow continuously and not decay so the magnet wouldn't need to move to maintain the current.
Holy FS. I just happen to have a copper Connector (tube-ish) and Neo Magnet beside my PC and tried this thinking BS and WOW it does slow down going through. Before I droped it I thought Yeah they might say Thickness matters or some other stuff cause my tube was nothing compared to yours but Damn it, it worked. That is Weird stuff.
It works the same for silver. A neo-magnet will slow down. It is a test for silver. But other metals are even more amazing. If you take a one pound sample of gadolinium sulfate, and charge it with a 1000 gauss magnet, it will freeze to 1 degree Kelvin. Thats COLD. It was a new form of refrigeration introduced in the 1920's
So what if you used super cooled graphineene (making it a superconductor) -273 infact (absolute 0) and the worlds strongest magnet (that is also a superconductor electro magnet then wire it up to the graphineene as it falls it makes power keeping it in place... would it therefore levitate inside the tube? and then if so would it make a difference if you had a vacuum below 0 atmospheres?
For those who are interested on how it works, here is the explain: (must say that english it's not my first lenguage, so be compassionate about my grammar mistakes) When you throw the magnet trought any metal pipe (in this case is copper, but can be aluminium too) it creates induced current in aaaaalll the surface of the pipe, and like it's a pipe, it's shortcutted so the current can flow on it. When it does, it generates a magnetic fiel around the pipe, so that magentic field it's strong enough to stop the faling of the magente, but still weak enough too for not stoping it. That's the explain
I don't think it is good explanation to say weak enough too for not stopping it. The better explanation is the magnet has to move to create the current to stop its moving. So the magnet has to be moving first, if the magnet stops there is no current and there is no resistance to make it stop... unless the metal is super conductor so that once the current is created it will stays there even the magnet is not moving.
I take it that the copper pipe contains ferrous metals in it. That would make sense though... copper is very soft so they would put harder metals in the mix to give the pipe more rigidity so it would hold its shape better.
Wow! did you see that? It fell right through like there was nothing to stop it! On a second viewing I noticed it is falling very slowly. How did I miss that before?
The explication of these effect are the parasite currents of foucault, that movement generates electriciti insti de the pipe, and currents too so it turns in to a electromagnet.

The braking effect has absolutely nothing to do with the copper being "para-ferromagnetic, "ferromagnetic", or "diamagnetic". The field is the result of Lenz's Law which says the current in the copper tube induced by the falling magnet will create another magnetic field that has the opposite polarity of the falling magnet. Lenz's Law is a result of the Law Of Conservation Of Energy which says that generating electrical energy requires an equal amount of energy input in the form of work. The electrical energy produced in the copper tube is equal to the potential energy lost as the magnet falls through the tube and that's what causes the braking effect. The copper is merely a conductor of the induced current and does not have any effect on the field. If a cardboard toilet paper tube were as conductive as copper, the effect would be identical.
+Tomasina Covell Believe it or not, I actually had to look that word up. Copper would be diamagnetic, which are materials that are slightly repelled by a magnetic field. The eddy currents just make the repelling force a lot stronger. The other two types are paramagnetic and ferromagnetic, which are materials that are attracted to magnetic fields, with ferromagnetic being the stronger, permanent type, such as iron. I remember seeing a video a long time ago on TV of a frog being levitated by a very strong magnetic field. I'm sure such a video is on TVclip somewhere.
Something called "eddy currents." As the magnet is falling through the copper pipe, it's inducing a magnetic field inside the pipe which is opposing magnetic field of the magnet. The pipe temporarily becomes a magnet.
The falling magnet induces a voltage and current and a separate magnetic field in the copper tube. However the direction of the induced field is opposite to the magnet. The magnet must always be moving to generate the field in the tube and it is not possible for the magnet to remain stationary.
Step 1: Get a huge copper pipe (One i can fit in) Step 2: by tons of Neodymium magnets Step 3: Mold the Neodymium magnets into clothes Step 4: Put magnet clothes on Step 5: Elevate the pipe with a crane so i can walk under it, but just barely. Step 6: Purchase a ladder Step 7: Put the ladder on the Copper pipe and jump down the copper pipe and amaze people.
+Cobrakiller2000 That makes a lot of sense.I believe that they could space out the copper or aluminium in the tunnel . It would seem,that that material would not be needed until the last few floors. It also seems that something like a magnetic vest might be used with some quick-snap - clips,sorta like a life jacket and just like boating,one jacket is required per person.As someone else had mentioned about the smoke problem,it seems like the tunnel could be easily ventilated,besides,a person wouldn't be in it for more than a few seconds,falling doesn't take that long.
+Hurricane Floyd Well maybe the copper could be just for 2 meters at the bottom floor functioning as back up cushion and it wouldn't have to be in the shape of a pipe.

Spellbinding! Why does the magnet fall in slow motion?
The braking effect has absolutely nothing to do with the copper being "para-ferromagnetic, "ferromagnetic", or "diamagnetic".
The field is the result of Lenz's Law which says the current in the copper tube induced by the falling magnet will create another magnetic field that has the opposite polarity of the falling magnet.
Lenz's Law is a result of the Law Of Conservation Of Energy which says that generating electrical energy requires an equal amount of energy input in the form of work. The electrical energy produced in the copper tube is equal to the potential energy lost as the magnet falls through the tube and that's what causes the braking effect.
The copper is merely a conductor of the induced current and does not have any effect on the field. If a cardboard toilet paper tube were as conductive as copper, the effect would be identical.
+Tomasina Covell Believe it or not, I actually had to look that word up. Copper would be diamagnetic, which are materials that are slightly repelled by a magnetic field. The eddy currents just make the repelling force a lot stronger. The other two types are paramagnetic and ferromagnetic, which are materials that are attracted to magnetic fields, with ferromagnetic being the stronger, permanent type, such as iron.
I remember seeing a video a long time ago on TV of a frog being levitated by a very strong magnetic field. I'm sure such a video is on TVclip somewhere.
+Jeff O Would then it mean that the copper is para-ferromagnetic?
The slow fall effect is an example of Lenz's Law.
Something called "eddy currents." As the magnet is falling through the copper pipe, it's inducing a magnetic field inside the pipe which is opposing magnetic field of the magnet. The pipe temporarily becomes a magnet.
so is the magnetic flux slowing it down?
The falling magnet induces a voltage and current and a separate magnetic field in the copper tube.
However the direction of the induced field is opposite to the magnet.
The magnet must always be moving to generate the field in the tube and it is not possible for the magnet to remain stationary.
Nothing fancy here, just one outcome of Lenz's law, the opposing current in copper tube.
Where can i get some neodymium magnets?
Nice, but I use five feet of small tube and round magnets..
Must of been bored
copper plumbing parts are not pure copper anymore,certain amount of scrap in everything,whatever the manufacturer can get away with
where can i get a neodymium magnet that size?
Step 1: Get a huge copper pipe (One i can fit in)
Step 2: by tons of Neodymium magnets
Step 3: Mold the Neodymium magnets into clothes
Step 4: Put magnet clothes on
Step 5: Elevate the pipe with a crane so i can walk under it, but just barely.
Step 6: Purchase a ladder
Step 7: Put the ladder on the Copper pipe and jump down the copper pipe and amaze people.
Most interesting indeed
This could be integrated into a new design for an elevator,or a quick fire escape for high rises,the possibilities are endless.
how to go back up?
+Cobrakiller2000 That makes a lot of sense.I believe that they could space out the copper or aluminium in the tunnel . It would seem,that that material would not be needed until the last few floors.
It also seems that something like a magnetic vest might be used with some quick-snap - clips,sorta like a life jacket and just like boating,one jacket is required per person.As someone else had mentioned about the smoke problem,it seems like the tunnel could be easily ventilated,besides,a person wouldn't be in it for more than a few seconds,falling doesn't take that long.
+Hurricane Floyd Well maybe the copper could be just for 2 meters at the bottom floor functioning as back up cushion and it wouldn't have to be in the shape of a pipe.
That would make insanely strong magnetic fields, maybe it can disturb equipment meters away, or even disrupt implants like pacemaker?
Yea right a superslow fire escape. Or an elevator that will get you there for your 80th birthday.
That is an expensive piece of copper.
Floyd, you have a very cool avatar picture!
is it true?
would an even smaller magnet just sit inside like suspended?
sorcerer
The 102 people that "disliked" this video, simply don'y realize the a copper tube interrupting a magnetic field is possible. S
That magnet is scary. 1/4 that size is dangerous.
Good ol' Lenz's Law in action.
so cool
Bot those CGI graphics sure are amazing, so life like
You are just the smartest
