Regular engineers: "Yeah, suspension makes sense."
Engineers seeing tensegrity structures: "WHAT BLACK MAGIC IS THIS?!"
Tensegrity is that mind-bending structural principle where components float in apparent defiance of physics, held together by a perfect balance of tension and compression. It's like watching a magician's trick except the magician is just... math. The bottom image shows the engineering equivalent of seeing a ghost—that moment when your brain short-circuits because something shouldn't work but absolutely does. First-year physics students think they've got gravity all figured out until this architectural sorcery enters the chat.
