    I remember that when I was a kid, my older cousin could somehow balance the entire set of dominos on one. Now that I'm older, I can never remember how he used to do it.

    I love at the end, the guy that made the video is so happy with himself, "Unbelievable :) 1 brick keeps 17 bricks. Amazing :D " Redundant. Two compliments for himself and two smilies. Lame.

    Great comment, me. Yeah, it was awesome.

    Nice choice for music track :-) haven't listened to this song in like 8 years :-D

    I tried this with my domino set.. the solid ivory coloured type.. it all came crashing down on the first try...

    We all know it´s physics, what is interesting is the way he achieved this.

    it's also a standard trick in the discipline of cigar box manipulation. with cigar boxes the whole stack usually gets balanced on the chin. http://www.dube.com/cigarbox/stacking.php
