a pretty cool video of japanese rube goldberg devices. but if the constant replaying of that melody doesn't drive you mad, nothing will..

any personal experience of them or a cool video you know of? anyone do rube goldberg machines in HL2? some tend to be pretty cool.

Danimal will be along to close this thread, he closed mine because he believed it ought to be in with the video thread :thumbs: : http://www.halflife2.net/forums/showthread.php?t=104660&highlight=contraptions

I think you have an extra 2 minutes on yours, probably because of the presenters taking timeout to play patter cake

Pretty awesome, but has been posted before in the google video thread.

I thought it was cool enough it deserved its own thread, and following discussion about rube goldberg devices.

/me grabs a hat which topples a hatstand which scares a mouse which runs on a treadmill which powers a fan which blows a paper plane which hits a switch which starts a remote-controlled car that rams a book which topples a book which topples a book which topples a book which slams a button that switches on a light which powers a solar panel which powers a cart which bumps a bucket which falls and drenches a waterwheel which turns and clicks some cogwheels that drive a coneyorbelt which drops an action figure onto a tray which tugs a string which pulls a pulley which lifts a ramp which rolls a ball which hits a ball which hits a ball which falls off a shelf and hits Raziaar on the head knocking him out.

I made these when i was young, made a huge one in the garden once that ended up throwing a spade full of stones across the garden.

Fortunately, I could not hear the melody here at work.

I have the sudden urge to build one of these things now.
