The Coriolis Effect Test: two hemispheres, one sink

Описание: The Coriolis Effect Test: two hemispheres, one sink

Disproven! The Coriolis Effect does not make the water drain out a sink anti-clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern.

Have you taken the same sink to both hemispheres? If so: send in your data to add to mine.

Northern: Clockwise, clockwise, clockwise, clockwise, clockwise.
Southern: Anti-clockwise, anti-clockwise, clockwise, anti-clockwise, clockwise.

If you’re wondering how I transported the sink from one hemisphere to the other: that is covered in the Patreon behind-the-scenes footage for this week. Support me on Patreon for as little as $1.11 and get access to all bonus content.

Huge thanks to Trent Burton who filmed the video in London, Simon Wright who filmed the Sydney footage and Jen Rogers who was the on-site runner and statistical consultant. Trent then nearly died trying to do the edit.

The sink was donated to a recycling centre in Sydney. It was last seen by the front door of Reverse Garbage (Addison Road, Marrickville, NSW). If anyone wants to buy the sink, it may still be there! If anyone checks on the sink let me know if you find it or not. Last known photo of the sink:

CORRECTIONS:
It sounds like I say "Dustin" at one point instead of "Destin", sorry about that. I got the wrong name wrong.
Let me know if you spot anything else!
