Ha, enjoyed him. I studied Physics in College and enjoyed every minute of it.
Here is the greatest Professor of Physics of all times if interested.
Professor Julius Sumner Miller

@tat2d, Now I feel shorted. I wasted a lot of time watching that jerk Mr Wizard when I should have been watching Professor Miller's show instead.
I kinda like that mad scientist look he has about him.

@tat2d, Now I have a time consuming project ahead of me. I'm sifting through pages and pages of his videos till I've watched them all.
Thanks for turning me on to him.

What a great teacher!
Taking on for science.
Vacuum eh....
I can see a better mouse trap coming out of this.
Not only do you get rid of the mouse,you send it to the next county.

The vacuum is causing it not the pressure alone.

Interesting! I'd never thought to do that!
As an aside, the old Victorian era Atmospheric Railways used the same principle whereby a vacuum was used to propel a complete railway train - either by using the atmosphere to push it directly, or attaching the train to a smaller pulling unit.
