... I am gonna use this to swindle some people out of their money. "come and try, for 1 euro! flip the tennis racket and keep the white side up, and win 20 euros!"

@veritasium It also could have just been a cork, that would be pressed into the bottle, equalizing the pressure inside and outside of the bottle.

@Beliar_83 basically they have to start with the white side up. I will prove it is doable, saying I can even flip it twice (which will land it on white again) but tell them they only have to flip the racket once. of course, flipping it once is easier and less risky, so they will trow one flip. This will always get the other side of the racket up. It is not exactly swindling, as when they realize what is going on they will star flipping it twice, but then I will just pay, close shop and count my profits. Still sounds like a profitable game.

I thought 3 but then I felt something was wrong. Trying to rotate A in my mind just didn't line up with 3 rotations. But then I saw the drawing in the paper at 2:43 and the same solution later described in 8:42 Just jumped into my mind. I realised that the distance the circle traveled was not the circumference of circle B, but rather, the circumference of a invisible circle who's radius was that of A and B combined. This would be 2*(r + 3r)pi = 8r*pi. Then aplying the initial method of deviding the circumference of this new circle by that of circle A, gets you 8r*pi/2r*pi = 4. Needless to say, I felt very smart for a bit haha. I hope I someday manage to catch such a problem in the wild, and be the first one to realise what is wrong.
