It is known as “the challenge Charlie Charlie”, resembles the game of Ouija, and for days has become . in a rage on social networks
The game is very simple: you have to put in balance two pencils in a cross on paper with the words “yes” and “no” and ask questions to a . course Mexican demon named Charlie who answers by moving the pen to one of the words
Those who believe in paranormal phenomena have no doubt: the movement-and the answer is dictated by Charlie
Those who do not, if they do not, ask why.
So why the stylus moves?
In principle, by force of gravity and the delicate and unstable position where pencils are
If you try to put them in the position indicated by the game you will notice that even though you do not ask any questions, pencils, or move it can do -.. anyway
The position of the pencil is so unstable that the slightest variation in their environment can affect your balance
That is, a small tremor in surface where they are supported or a tiny movement of the air stream caused by breathing, they can rotate the pencil to one side or another.
The problem is that unlike the Ouija board, where players must rest your hand on a plate or glass (and therefore in contact with the moving object) in this game, pencils seem to move on their own, or according to the “designs” of Charlie -.
?
What if do not move
If motivated by reaction networks you put it to the test, you might have been the same that happened to many: pencils were unmoved.
This happens when they are not perfectly aligned or when the contact surface (for example if the pen has a faceted surface) is too large.
In this case, too much friction occurs and no movement is generated
