there are verry little particles in space so there is verry little friction to stop the spinning top. but when you touch it it would instantly move away from your hand so there is almost no friction given by your glove.

In the movie Inception when the top stops spinning does that mean he is in reality?

Yes, the top represents the only proof of the "real world" within the movie. If the top fails to stop spinning it proves that the current world is the "dream world" and in fact not reality. This is why at the end of the movie it cuts to credits before we discover whether or not the top stops spinning. If it stops it is the real world, if it doesn't then he is just in another dream. Whether the end scene takes place in the real world or not is another question all together. After all, we didn't see Saito actually shoot himself at the end of the movie in that room that resumed after the very first scene in the movie. Crazy isn't it? :P


Where can you buy the Inception Spinning Top?

You don't need to buy it, you can dream it.


What is the theme of the movie inception?

Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) noted earlier in the movie that his totem, the spinning top, would spin forever if he was in a dream. In the real world or his own dream, the top would eventually stop spinning and fall over. The last 5 seconds of the movie should very closely watched. The ending was meant to be ambiguous so that the viewer doesn't know if the top fell over (he was back in Saito's dream, his dream, orthe real world) or if it just kept on spinning (he was still in a dream, and would likely be forever). So far this question has two rival answers. 1) The spinning top keeps spinning, so he is still in a dream and we don't know what happens to the rest of the team as he didn't wake up on the plane but was asleep. This makes some sense because the children and house are identical to his dreams - they haven't grown up yet we have been led to believe that time has passed. Or, 2) some people are saying that the spinning top actually slows and starts to wobble at the very end, showing that he is now in 'his dream, Saito's dream, or reality (as the top was his wife's totem and would only fall in if it was in someone who had touched it's dream or reality).
