Inventing a Perpetual Motion generator...
Kids didn't read the Bible in the 1960's, they read Popular Mechanics magazine. That was the place to find the latest military secrets and gadgets not available to the common man!One of my first jobs had an engineering department where guys with pocket protectors and horned rimmed glasses were the norm.
One guy was a self-proclaimed inventor. He was itching to patent a Perpetual Motion generator. Lucky me, I got to see a prototype that he brought to the office to show off.
Basically, he connected a generator to a motor with a flywheel and expected to spin start this device and that the generator would develop enough power to keep the motor running... running as in perpetually with no slow down.
Not on this planet!
Nearly 50 years later with all the technological advancements in motors and generators "We ain't there yet!"
Go ahead, Google it up... you'll find mechanical devices outweigh the electro-mechanical devices but... "We ain't there yet!"

Ron Jeremy... is that really you?
I thought you were in jail without bond.
