How do Waterwheels Work?

How can we harness water power to... move water? Can water really create electricity? And does (wheel) size really matter?

Huge thanks to the folks at Manx heritage for letting us film at their wonderful Laxey Wheel. For further reading: https://manxnationalheritage.im/our-s...

Live Curiously with Liv Boeree is a series of videos exploring the fringes of science, philosophy and futurism. In other words, all the stuff that keeps me up at night!
