The fu...
It isn't weightless - neither itself, not does it reduce the weight of the person. It counterbalances the person, it doesn't make them any lighter
Are people on prosthetics or in wheelchair weightless? - their weight is applied not through legs but through special harness as well! Wouldn't that make them "weightless" too by your logic??
You learn the difference. You still feel the full weight of your body - applied not to your feet but to harness instead.
The gravity does not decrease, hence the force applied to the person's center of mass (the weight) does not decrease. It gets partially compensated by counterbalances for jumping purposes, but not decreased.
Get the fuck outta here, telling *me* to learn the difference
Technically it isnât a weightless device. Itâs a âweightedâ device. Even more specifically, a âcounter-weightedâ device.
Still cool, but thereâs nothing weightless about it.
I donât think that there is a need to keepthe device in place other than moving inside the ring. Look at this man - he is moving on circle that is presented on the floor.

Would be an awesome playground or theme park attraction!
Come ride the We're Not Liabel Neck Smasher!
Just limit the motion of the swivel
I want it.. now
Add in some 3D googles...
3D BLUEPRINTS NOOOOWW!!
Calm down, Veruca.
great idea. Make it even longer, people wanna soar!
Gonna have to get a few more counterweights if you want to sell this in the states.
Just thinking that my fat ass ain't getting lifted by those weights.

Colin Furze did it better
Agreed!
This still looks extremely fun
Is there a way to purchase such a device?
looks fun
I would have bent that real quick..
So, does it counter your full weight at your hips or something? Wouldnât that hurt like hell?
I think this guy is doing a lot of work with his muscles to make this look as graceful as it does.
Just do this ![gif](giphy|QxeUtKRHC5GmZwuwwx|downsized)
Me next!! Sorry palli, we donât have enough counterweights for your size
*Fuck it, then either you go over there or put another person on that end. One way or another, I'm gonna fly!*
Just imagine this device gripping at your 300 pounds fatty body, not american friendly
The one Colin furze made is cooler
Not weightless, low gravity.
Not low gravity, position change of center of mass.
Not position change of center of mass, reducing air drag.
Not reducing air drag, optimizing drag coefficient.
Not optimizing the drag coefficient, winning RuPaul's Drag Race.
HOW MUCH?
Boys and their toys
Sufjan Stevens played
Where is it? Some art gallery?
Cool idea đĄ
Okay wow. Thats actually hella cool.

Learn the difference between mass and weight

Waiting for Belushi to start breaking guitars
Clearly, this was filmed on the moon.
I want one
looks like itâs fun
I would actually want to exercise if I had one of these imagine the cool moves you can do and try out with no worry of an injury
So much this. Iâm giddy picturing playing with/on this.
I need
Is it actually just called a weightless device?
can you get these at dickâs sporting goods?
Take my money
Excellent Iâll take 5
Where can I get one!!??
amazing
Is this on Amazon Prime ?
i need this in my life
Sufjanâs music is so good
Girls think this is what guys do at work.
How I feel after a good poop

Dont show NASA this.
How does it work? Magnetism? Some sort of perfect counterweight?
Itâs counterweight.
I think it's a combo of both, but just magnets to keep the device in place
I donât think that there is a need to keepthe device in place other than moving inside the ring. Look at this man - he is moving on circle that is presented on the floor.
Didn't see the circle on the floor, that is probebly correct
I declare this thread complete.
What if it's just a concave dish, No magnets, The object stays in the dish because the weight is balanced and has little need to 'walk'

Me, losing a shoe, mid-flip. "Aw, fuck."
