When stationary the weight is at the top of the wheel and the wheel is held in place because of a piece of strip on the board. A SLIGHT tap is enough to disturb the equilibrium and make the wheel roll. While the wheel seems to roll upward, its center of gravity comes down, all according to the laws of physics...
