Veproject1 has uploaded nearly 100 videos, almost all of which show the workings of machines that can't possibly exist.

The creator of these machines — Valeriy Ivanov — is a Ukrainian engineer living in Canada. According to his website, the purpose of these contraptions is, "to attract youth to Engineering and Science… [so they] can discuss basic scientific principles upon which they are built."

In order of likeliness: Maybe they're meant to be illustrative? Maybe Mr. Ivanov thinks perpetual motion is possible and wants to spread his wisdom? Or maybe he's a huge troll with the patience to film tons of short videos and maintain a website and Facebook page under an alias?

Regardless of why these videos exist, the real fun lies in watching YouTube commenters suss out how the fakes were built to look as though they're functioning.
