Words can’t do justice to the mind-blowing brilliance of this man eating a ‘simple’ dinner

Paul Moore

Joseph's Machines

Magnificent and magnetic.

There’s something about a perfectly synchronised event that just grabs your attention and refuses to let go.

For example, the band OK Go have perfected the art of making crazy, kooky and utterly brilliant music videos while indie fans might remember a cracking video from a band called The Bravery called Honest Mistake.

Like a row of dominos falling or that wonderful opening scene from Back to the Future, there’s an indescribable magnetism about watching a chain reaction of events that brilliantly flow into each other and it’s even better when machinery and technology is used.

On that note, an inventor and YouTuber that goes by the name of Joseph’s Machines has perfected the art of a *simple* dinner.

Here’s how Joseph describes his brilliant creation. “I hate waiting for dessert, so here’s a Rube Goldberg machine to streamline dinnertime. It lets me keep eating, with no break before cake. It’s my most complex yet and took 3 months to make so I hope you enjoy it!”

Take a look.

The clip was originally posted a few weeks ago but it has gone viral after Derren Brown recently retweeted it.

Bravo.

*FYI, there’s nothing simple about this because it’s bloody brilliant!
