We at VitenWahl have little faith in magic, but sometimes physics is almost magical. Like when you make glitter float, just with the help of some wool and a plastic tube. It may look like magic, but it has a completely natural explanation: by rubbing the plastic tube against a woolen garment, you create static electricity. The tube is charged with extra electrons, the glitter falls down, and some of the electrons jump to the glitter. Now both the glitter and the plastic tube have extra electrons, both are negatively charged, and then they repel each other.
This is the glitter Andreas has used on TV and in countless science shows around the country. We sold this set in Nerdebutikken's Christmas calendar last year, and we have some left in stock. So now you get the chance to buy your own little magic wand PVC pipe and the best kind of glitter threads. Ulla, you have to take care of yourself. Wingardium leviosa! (It's levi O sa, not levios A )
Here's a video showing how you can create magic with physics (yeah, we know it's from the Calendar of Science, but it was the only video we have at the moment):
