      What kind of physics allows this and can we scale this up is all i can think know and i really needed my mind with me today.

        I think, the effect here is similar to a situation where you take 2 balls of different weights, for example a 🎾 and a 🏀, stack them with the smaller ball on top and drop them. If you drop them both from, say, 1m height, when bouncing off ground, the 🎾 will bounce up much higher than the initial 1m. Because the heavier ball will impart some amount of its kinetic energy to the smaller ball.

        Surface tension, cohesion, IMFs, thermodynamics, throw in some Pchem if you’d like. Magnets…how do they work
