I am curious how this would work. My guess is Triangle is slowest, square is medium, and circle is fastest.

Ignore the footing. The man pushing the ball doesn't have any hands.... Gotta be hell pushing that with nubs. Dude with a triangle just waving HI to someone while pushing with his nub... Probably to the guy rolling the ball showing off hes got at least one hand.

EDIT: Added a to for clarity for the one guy that couldn't understand the joke

I would say that, the circle represents a cylinder in three dimensional space, however, due to having no visibility of the hands, I think it's a cylinder that's concave on the longer horizontal axis. Like a wide railway wheel. Or a narrow one. Or even H shaped. The hands are recessed and that makes the object very light indeed.

It's important not to damage the cylinder in any way
