Biblical Perpetual Motion Machine
1940-1990

BIOGRAPHY

Harry Leroy Brunson spent sixty years attempting to perfect a perpetual-motion machine. He worked in secret using only a small handsaw and pocketknife in the basement of his home in Greenville, Alabama. He occasionally mentioned the project to members of his family, however, no one had seen it until after his death in 1991. Brunson was born in Victoria, Alabama, in 1898. Although considered somewhat eccentric, he was a well-educated man who pursued studies at Alabama Polytech (Auburn), the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and the University of Southern California. He held a variety of jobs throughout his life, from restaurant owner to operator of a small feed store, and even claimed at one time to have been on the vaudeville circuit. But his ongoing passion was a determination to discover the principle of perpetual motion and see it used to advantage by the United States Government. His machine depended in part on power derived from "devine intervention" [sic] but no one knows if it ever actually worked.
