Prof Levesley

Amazing man.

Today he told us about how UCL had this vibrational apparatus set up for students from other unis to play with remotely through the internet.

When he found out he went over to their website and had a fiddle with it. Then he had an idea all academic engineers get when fiddling with stuff.

“How do I break it?”

After doing the necessary calculations he plugged in his values into the machine and told it to do so and so. Shortly after it went offline….

Good man!

 

(for you science students out there…He told the vibrating beam to vibrate at it’s natural frequency)(For you fellas who remember a bit of your high school physics…It creates resonance and causes the beam to vibrate massively breaking shit)(in a nutshell)
