Proof of Perpetual motion?

I am sorry I can't embed the video but you can find it on Youtube here 

proof?

1. Plenty of space to hide a pump in there (plus, the bubble-flow at the start is a dead give-away of a pump priming.

2. That's not perpetual, and the "uphill" is an illusion (watch the rolling cone, not the slope).

3. It does not have "more weight to the left" - it is a circle, and has equal weight all around it's centre of rotation. If it worked as advertised, it would be self-starting. Why do they only show it running for a few seconds? Because it's slowing down.

4. Note instant acceleration to a fixed speed - there's a motor in there.

5. Note edge of wheel hidden in unusually-thick base. There's a motor driving it via a roller. As for 3, if it worked, it would be self-starting.

6. As for 3, if it worked, it would be self-starting. Note jerking motion resisting impact of falling weight - it's motor-driven again.

For all those claims of perpetual motion, I call FOUL!

Yep Me to but then again they do confess at the start.

No wonder there are still people out there who believe in something for nothing.

A well made hoax. Still, the "self filling flask" is a pretty impressive trick, and I have seen it done legitimately with supercooled fluid. Unfortunately, it looks like we won't be seeing a genuine example any time soon, at least as far as the current understanding of physics is concerned.

Yeah, I thought #1 was a beautiful piece of work too. Worthy of an instructable....

"Not to trick but to inspire". Is on the first screen of the video.

Nothing on YouTube is a proof of anything, other than good (or bad :-) video editing and special-effects skills.
