In this video, the presenter attempts a gravity-defying experiment by using five vacuum cleaners to lift a car. The setup involves attaching vacuum cleaners to a box on the car's roof, creating a powerful suction. The experiment tests how many vacuums are needed to keep the car airborne, with the goal of reducing the number of vacuums while maintaining lift. The video explores the principles of air pressure and suction, demonstrating a creative application of scientific concepts.
