A video showcasing a ‘beautiful display of physics’ has left internet users astounded. Shared on July 2, the short-clip shows a man vigorously spinning two glasses of water in circles without spilling even a single drop of water. The jaw-dropping gravity-defying stunt seems to be magic, however, it is just a neat trick using basic physics.
The 59-second-clip starts with a man filling two glasses with water and placing one each at both ends of a long piece of rope. The man is then seen lifting the glasses up with the help of a rope. He then begins swinging them like a pendulum and within seconds he starts to twirl them around his head and vigorously spins them around in circles.

With 80,000 likes and hundreds of comments, while some internet users called it a ‘dazzling display of physics’, others wrote that the trick is ‘unbelievable’ and ‘extraordinary’. One user said, “Amazing application of physics”. Another user joked and wrote, “I need to learn this, in case we have to fight for a place in heaven with our star signs”.
Fitting that this dazzling display of physics is taking place in the country that discovered and described it 10,000 years before the west. Amazing India. https://t.co/jopMty0Cdg

the speed and position while taking off and slowing down really matters....rest is taken care of by the law of inertia...
