Flying baby dolls.... the Coanda effect in action

Flying balls were fun until I discovered there were all sorts of other objects that can be levitated in a stream of air that are much more interesting and challenging. To begin I followed a few simple rules: 1. objects cannot be supported by strings, 2. touch other surfaces, 3. objects must be able to be supported in airstream for at least 15 seconds. In this video, shop vacs or an air compressor provides the air stream to fly these babies. In previous videos I have flying carrots, cucumbers, spoons, footballs, pigs, to name a few. In a future I hope to post additional interesting household objects that I never expected would work. this video is a reposting of a previous video that included copyrighted music.
