00:00A bell that has been ringing for 184 years.
00:03There exists a bell that has rung over 10 billion times without ever being charged.
00:08It's called the Oxford Electric Bell, and it runs on a battery powered entirely by static electricity.
00:13Inside the battery, a small metal ball is drawn toward the bell by static charge.
00:17The moment it makes contact, it picks up that charge and is instantly pushed away to the opposite side.
00:22This back-and-forth motion repeats over and over, consuming absolutely no material in the process.
00:27And somehow, it's still going.
00:29To this day, no one fully understands how.
00:31It holds the Guinness World Record for the longest-lasting battery in the world.
