Josh Jacobs, also known as Slinky Josh, is the world's premiere expert in slinky manipulation, or slinking, as he calls it. He came by the art honestly, by seeing someone on the internet do it. He was so impressed that he got a slinky and started practicing. The slinkys that Jacobs uses are a far cry from the original metal slinkys, which got bent before you could ever do fancy tricks with them. He uses tough, colorful slinkys that he sells along with slinky manipulation lessons. In this video, Jacobs shows us a couple of the basic moves that anyone can do, but you can only get really good at it with practice. -via Digg
