You will also need a video camera, as without proof who would believe this crazy theory.
I suspect that more than $100 would be raised, thus allowing the purchase of a video camera.
We need a University to host the experiment. Heavy forbids it gets tossed out years down the road by some noob thinkin' it's just a bunch of rocks in a funnel. The presence of the clock should give a clue that this is a viable experiment.
An app could be sold for $.99 so that people who are into such a thing can share the experience with their friends.
Please support The Rock Drop experiment.
Yes, this is all tongue-in-cheek, but the value would be in how clever the fake experiment can be made to seem real. <---(fuck me! this just spawned another idea)
