Description: https://web.archive.org/web/http://www.elperfecto.com/2010/11/14/carousel-mechanical-power/ A man lifts 300 pounds over his head with ease, using a pulley in the form of a carousel. As the rope gets wrapped around the pole, the weights, in this case children and wood, are raised up. When the man lets go, the weight lowers, spinning around the pole. When the weight gets to the bottom, the momentum keeps it moving so that the children go back up the pole a fraction of the original height. No motors, no electricity, no fuel... just human muscle.
