    Hi, I am Teddy. Once you read this you cannot get out. Finish reading this until it is done! As I said, I am Teddy. I am 7 years old and have no eyes and blood all over my face. I am dead. If you don’t post this in 12 threads, I will come to ur house at midnight and hide under ur bed. When ur asleep I’ll kill you.

    Hey, i’m working on a school project, and i´m trying to make a car moved by solar energy. do you think I could aplicate this method to the project to get more power from the sun?
    by the way…nice video (and sorry for my english, im portuguese)

  24. wretchedwon says:

    could you multiply the sun light further by using a concentrator to focus light on something like a magnifying glass?

    4:22 = Burning HotDog! :D

  26. Solar Energy is one of the best ways to get clean energy . Today the efficiency of solar power is a bit low but with advances in technology, solar cells will become more and more efficient in harnessing the energy of the sun.
