Reply to comment by Em_Adespoton in ELI5: I was looking into gravity and energy and discovered why you can't harness energy from gravity. Carry bowling ball up a hill, let it fall from a cliff, the energy doesn't come from gravity, but from you carrying it up the hill, potential energy? I then pictured it as charging aKamehameha?

Oh, well right, he's just stating one example of the conservation of energy.
