The plastic used in the Logomotion tubes is actually a surprisingly good conductor of electricity. Inside the base of the tower is a solenoid. The solenoid creates a magnetic field around the steel pole, which launches the tube upward with a surprising amount of force. And, yes, I learned that the hard way.
