That was pretty damn cool, and it was huge too. I'm wondering how they get the slinky to go all the way down the stairs, I can never get it to work properly.

    Now that would have taken a long ass time so set up. it kinda reminds me of the opening scene in back to the future.

    Wow that was pretty intricate, great job on that one! I also wondered how the chess pieces moved. One thought I had was that there could have been magnets on strings and pulleys mounted under the table that dragged the chess pieces which would have to have metal or more magnets in the pieces as well. The cell phone part was a nice modern touch.

    that was pretty impressive.....i wonder how long it took them to build and perfect that?

    It reminds me of the game Mouse Trap. This was awesome, I especially liked the dart part. Honestly, how can you go wrong with something sharp speeding right at you? You can't. I would have added a Cow Bell though, just because, that's how you impress the ladies.

There were a few more things but lets leave it by that... I mean its a nice video but this one is not in real time.So its not really a chain reaction.Don´t cheer for this dude too much,I mean. Thanks for reading. The slinky looks clearly edited. Not bad, but not continuous. An A for effort.

    i think the chess game has magnets in it, so its kinda automatic chess game, and they programmed it to win :P my teory xD

    Heheh...I enjoyed that a lot but it seems that people are really bored these days. I think the chess pieced were able to move due to magnets under the table and the chess pieces being metal underneath or a magnet as well with a different poll. Pretty awesome.

Thanks for reading. 1. not necessarily. number could have been pre-dialed. Some phones holding send also automatically calls last called number. 2. Magnets possibly? other than that you have good points. though it could also have just been multiple takes and edited.
