"so, why does this happen" "well, I wouldn't know..."
@fantasimos
I tried it and i have to buy another phone
@user-vf1hk6kb3n
he doesn't know why it happens, he's genuinely asking us
@aeraviation6218
I love the part where he explains why it happens
@chrismarston4266
This happens because rotations will have an axis with a maximum, intermediate, and a minimum moment of inertia. As seen, rotations about two of the axes are stable while one is unstable. We know inertia is an objects resistance to change so we can easily see that the axis with the maximum moment of inertia will be stable. Knowing whether the axis of minimum or intermediate moment of inertia is the unstable one is not as trivial. You might think that the answer is the minimum axis because it has the least inertia, but the minimum axis is also stable. The intermediate axis is our unstable axis because it is prone to small perturbations that try to make the phone spin along one of the two stable axes. It’s called the intermediate axis theorem and was derived from Eulers equations of rigid body motion.

Back in my day these videos came with explanations
@aishwarysrivastava1153
This is because of tennis raket theorem the phone turns in different direction because that axis has unstable moment of inertia.😊👍

@voidex136
Just imagine how many people will break their phone after that video😂

I love the part where u told us why this happens

"Have you ever tried to spin your phone?" Absolutely not and you are getting me anxious, sir
@Avexer
As an experienced phone flipper, this is one of the first things I've mastered. I can literally choose which side it lands on, and even change the rotation speed on any of the chosen axis. Sometimes it feels like a superpower.

instructions unclear, phone flew out the window and now watching YouTube on my toaster
