HIGH QUALITY: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZZJf4hxadY&fmt=18 An 8th Grade Rube Goldberg Science Project Objective - Light a Match btw: The remote is only used to stop the match lighter... ;) **Where does 'Around the World' come from?... Our Rube Goldberg machine basically has two parts connected between two cellphones. The cellphone on the first part calls the cellphone on the second part, triggering it, and therefore continuing the chain of events. Because cellphones work mostly anywhere in the world, theoretically, the two parts of our machine can be located in any two places in the world with cellphone reception and still work. That's where the name 'Around the World' comes from.
