Karra Engine

[KAS]

Just spotted this patented Gravity Engine on the net:

Apparently, it was developed by a Syrian team.

Anyone know anything about it?

A while back there was a video posted on YouTube. Also they have a video posted on their website.
The machine shown is about 12 feet in diameter and looks like a monster from someones bad dream.

Oh! I remember this one now.

I didn't realise the drawings and that old pneumatic contraption was one of the same.

A search at esp@cenet of the EPO of the IPC of f03b17/04 will turn up 500 inventions of alleged perpetua mobilia. I'm making a sort of wild guess, but I'll bet all of them are inoperative.

KAS,

I have spent several several hours studying this wheel and its patent applications in detail. It is quite a massive interconnected web of levers!

It is quite complicated and impressive at the same time. One downside is that it requires a hydraulic lift system to shift the weights but the power of the wheel supposedly supports the hydraulics.

I really admire the inventor for taking it to an ultimate level to demonstrate its power with building the metal monster he has. It reminded me of Bessler's devotion to prove his point in builing his 12 foot gravity wheel.

ha, i found this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZItT-XqqrHE called the "G Force Rotational Machine" and it's the same footage as the Karra Engine. It's supposedly an Armenian inventor while the Karra is supposedly Syrian. The dates of the cover story also match up with each other. Pretty suspicious. Impressive prop though.

That youtube video was posted 18-years ago. Whenever I see a so called gravity motor connected to a generator my first thought is that the "generator" is in actuality the device driving the wheel and not the other way round.

Arminian MIBs one G-force inventors zero.

"That youtube video was posted 18-years ago."

Is that correct? Youtube hasn't been around that long. Perhaps it was re-posted recently on youtube from somewhere else.

I can not be absolutely certain when this video was originally posted but there was a comment under this video (from three-years back) that reads:

It has been 15 years since this video was made... To me, this could mean one of two things. Hoax,.. or he was silenced/paid of by a government/company to keep it under wraps. either way. We lose.

You are correct Thomas in that Youtube was founded, February 2005 so it must have been posted to another site or this Blakeyboy450 (and by quoting him) me, is full of it.
