it doesn’t, it’s a fake, a hoax.

It’s real.
At minimum, there is one magnet on the rotating wheel, probably the longest cylinder that is protruding. Say the North end is pointing outward. The cylinder in the wooden block that the person rocks is also a magnet, with the same end protruding (North by assumption). Each time the long cylinder rotates past the wooden block, the person pushed his magnet down, which magnetically pushes on the long magnet in the rotating wheel just after it has passed.
Like poles repel. (North repels North. South repels South.)
Then energy to run this motor comes from the person’s wrist action. He does slightly more work raising and lowering his magnet near the rotating wheel than he would rotating it farther away from the wheel.
