Flip the Switch

This is the best way to turn off a light switch

Place a hook with a screw in the ceiling.

Hook up the pulley on the screw.

Set up a dustpan that can be lifted by the pulley.

Set up a cardboard inclined plane that lays on top of books.

Get a dustpan that has a handle that can tilt and set it up.

Tie a string from the dustpan handle to the light switch.

Place a baseball in the dustpan.

Pull the pulley so the dustpan lifts and the ball falls out onto the cardboard ramp.

The baseball will hit the handle of the dustpan and knock it over.

The handle will fall, pulling the string and turning off the lights.
