All these are variations of kapa and yes they are ou.

And another one from rus

all folks

see here u can swap a magnet's polarity around !!

repelling poles can go together... Coulomb's law is completely invalid !!

How does he do it? No clues given. I doubt anybody could replicate that given the lack of information.

LOL that trick with ring ferrites, i did the same trick and uploaded it to youtube years ago.
I did not get them to perfectly overlap, there was like 1cm offset at best but they can
APPARENTLY attract. This is common for ring magnets and depending on how particular
magnets are magnetized one may get the same effect he did. Same poles can also
"attract" (not really) if one magnet is much smaller than the other as shown...

As shown, even neodymiums get demagnetized by repulsion, not to mention ferrites.
One can use a strong neo to partially demagnetize/flip polarity of the ferrite on one
side, then the effect can be produced (complete alignment). It is but an illusion,
same poles do not attract.

Good place to remind all parallel flux lines are trying to get away from each other,
they are literally trying to break the magnet apart but of course force is not enough.

Err why do you start off with LOL Lucifer our lord (your lord ) ? I'm not exactly a religious person  but i have seen things in this life you wouldn't believe !

Whaaat, lol means laugh out loud and has meant that since it was first used back in the 80s. Just the fact you interpret it that way posits a question is lucifer your lord (apparently so). BTW i am not exactly a religious person either (altho re-ligious like yoga probably also means re-legion, that is, union with God, nothing bad about religion as long as it is a technique of Self-discovery, not a belief system which divides people...but i digress) but i seen things YOU would not believe, in fact, i been awake on planes that would blow your mind (no, not on drugs), but no need to get into that here.
