Imagine swinging a rock over your head in a circle, on a string. Add more energy, and the rock speeds up. Now replace the string w a bungee cord. Add more energy, and the cord stretches / the rock moves further out. The energy is stored in cord. Gravity is that bungee cord.https://twitter.com/robkroese/status/1048712341527953409 …

4/ Keep going. More air resistance, ball drops lower, ball goes FASTER. Yet more. Yet lower. Yet faster. Agreed? Videotape that...and play it backwards.

5/ Now, in addition to the backwards masking where the prog rock soundtrack turns into Geroge Soros asking you to destroy western civilization through big government, what ELSE is going on?

6/ Answer: we see a ball orbiting VERY quickly close to the bottom of the funnel, and we see energy being added to it (negative air resistance, but imagine a very tiny rocket). And what happens? It slowly climbs further out, slows down, and stockpiles energy as potential energy.
