Video: The Nat Geo Contraption



Rube Goldberg machines are always good for a viral video. To promote their new ‘smart and entertaining’ content, the British National Geographic Channel built a monstrous chain reaction Rube Goldberg machine with 38 triggers and 71 moving pieces. 
"To celebrate our upcoming lineup of smart and entertaining shows, we found inspiration in American cartoonist Rube Goldberg's famous chain reactions. So we decided to create our own National Geographic version, combining 9 globes, 3 tyres, 1 Volkswagen Beetle, bowling pins, and a variety of everyday objects into a 4-ton scientific contraption with 38 triggers and 71 moving pieces! Watch what happens after "Street Genius" host Tim Shaw sets everything in motion."
