Description:

When air is blown through the funnel, the force on the ping-pong ball is into the funnel. The ball can not be blown out. It will also remain in an inverted funnel so long as the air flow continues. The ping-pong ball will also be held aloft by a steady stream of air. With practice the ball can be held aloft with the air blowing at it from an angle.
