Is this true (pic) ?

Ya of course. Just balance the weight with the center being where the ruler touches the table.

It looks like it would work to me

Looks legit to me

try out yourself, and do tell us.

not on my planet

I don't think so but try it and get back to us.

because we the fuck sure aren't going to try it

you peeps keep amazing me.

Think it is :thumbsup

Why? Just align the c.g. and it won't fall.

It looks to be like what you use to balance a camera when you walk around.

Did some Googling and it turns out you might be right

I wonder what if feels like to fail high school.

LOL true enough...

Yes that is true!

I don't know...

LOL look at all the know it all dumbass people in here haha to funny

Why not? This ruler could be nailed to the table.

mmmm, to much tools for me :P

It works due to the laws of physics in particular "leverage & fulcrums" it has nothing to do with C of G. there are two fulcrums at work here directing the weight of the hammer head upwards towards the ruler/hammer handle juncture thus counterbalancing the whole affair!!
