Every year Theta Tau, an engineering professional fraternity, sponsors a Rube Goldberg Contest at Purdue. The rules require that you perform a task, like in this case the task is to open the drapes, but you have to perform the task with a certain minimum number of mechanical steps. I didn't count them in this video, but the guys who made this work would seem to me to not have much of "a life." Tuning this thing would be a major time sink.

In any event, it was pretty clever. Thanks for sharing.

Oh great, the drapes are open, but the hair drier is on, a candle is burning, two phones are in use, the water is running and his wife will be home in ten minutes!

:D :D :D

Thanks for wasting a few minutes of my life!
