                Defying gravity: insights into hula hoop levitation β Physics World
                Successful hula hooping requires a gyrating body with a particular slope and curvature
            
        
    
    
            I've always been bad at hula-hooping, but I never knew why until I read this article. Turns out it's *not* a lack of coordination or weak core muscles, it's my body type! βοΈπ§ͺ

                The 10 quirkiest stories from the world of physics in 2024 β Physics World
                We revisit the physics of papercuts, a quantum escape room and much more
            
        
    
    
            Finally, we firmly believe there is physics everywhere you look, including in paper cuts, escape rooms, stamps, cicadas and a whole bunch of other unlikely places. Here's @michaelbanks.bsky.social's take on 2024's quirkiest physics stories. Happy new year! (8/end) π§ͺβοΈ physicsworld.com/a/the-10-qui...
