Vaguely,
but a draedel is spun by a twist of the fingers, and doesn't spin too fast or too long (at least, as far as I can tell by Google pictures, I've never seen a real one). A top is spun up to very high speeds by an uncoiling string and a hard throw and can spin for a long time.
Because of this, and the sharp pivot point, it is a potentially dangerous toy. You have to be careful to NOT PUT YOUR EYE OUT, as our Moms always liked to tell us whenever we were having fun.
Don't try this at home, go out and play in the street!
