A long time ago, I read a book about how some Victorians got so bored from being cooped up in bad weather that they started betting how many raindrops were on a window.

That they came up with this "game" is one thing, but then someone counted them all, to see who won the bet.

. . . do you think the contest might have been rigged for the turquoise marble to win? If it has more mass than the other marbles, it will likely win every time.

Regardless, this a surprisingly entertaining video.
