Many home inventors have experimented with Tesla and Rodin coils.  Some of the more complex devices contain extremely strong neodymium magnets!  The key question in these types of inventions is will the magnetism run out and how efficiently could this energy be harnessed without losing a lot of it to friction etc.

This commenter przybylason is enthusiastic about the video and had this to say in response:

Ha, i’ve always had a similar design idea except with more magnets creating an even greater repelling force. Unfortunately i never made it. Was thinking about it today and decided to pop it into google and there it was. I don’t care if none of you believe me. I’m just happy i thought of the idea out of my own creativity. And to whom made this thing, good on you sir

We hope you like the video and that people keep thinking outside the box when it comes to the search for efficient energy!
