Wyatt's Rube Goldberg Machine: Wyatt's Switch-O-Matic

Today I decided to make a video of my Rube Goldberg machine that I did for science class. Here are the instructions to the machine:
Put marble into Tunnel of Death. Marble lands on Roley-Poly Ramp: inclined plane, then marble lands in catapult: lever and fulcrum, that makes ball that rolls down ramp that knocks over topple towers. These hit the 7-Up truck: wheel and axle, which runs into tripping dominoes that land on killer mouse trap that pulls string, connected to pulley that pulls light switch turning on light.

 Quite elaborate isn't it? Hope you like the video I made.

    Super cool light switch.

    Ah, and the Dad-cam-laugh is pretty cool too.

  4. Mom's comment: Wyatt was smarter than his teacher was. Thank goodness he figured out how to set the mouse trap without crushing his fingers, like I did, repeatedly...OW! The things we do in the name of science...
