Did you know a leaf blower can be used to rapidly unroll an entire roll of toilet Paper?
Ingredients
Instructions
STEP 1 : Place the toilet paper on the dowel rod and
unroll the tissue.
STEP 2 : Hold the dowel rod horizontally with the roll unrolling away from you.
STEP 3: Turn on the leaf blower and aim the stream of air just over the top surface ofthe roll.
Explanation
Bernoulli's Principle states that the pressure of a liquid decreases as its velocity
increases. Increasing the velocity over the surface of the toilet paper, lowers the
pressure of the air pushing on the toilet paper.
