Tweezers.
Had one for years- but since my body stopped growing all those extra's every time I pulled them out, I finally sold mine on ebay a year ago or so.

Is used tweeze off or out all those third and fourth legs and arms and to tweeze out all those over-extra digits and eyes.

Turquoise so 2010...?
I agree with Katthe7th - I have vivid turquoise memories of 1989-1990...- I remember that especially because for me those were the years that I emerged out of a clotheswise-speaking pitch-black-TheCure-like punk period in my life. Turquoise was my 2nd other color after red that I dared to wear.

So yes indeed- Turquoise is soooooo Retro....!

Some people have this urge to make simple things really complicated- To "improve" them by over-engineering them hugely just because they can.

This is just such a brilliant engineer that completely has forgotten to first and foremost apply the KISS!!!-principle (Keep It Simple Stupid!!!) on his improvement.

I tell dee- we're all grat seers-
'Cause all of us can tell:

- After Rain - Will come Shine
- After Day - Will come Night
- Not only the Great Eastern Empire will Fall - The Great Western Empire will Fall too (because that is just what empires do- After they flourish, they will go into decline...)
- After a period of mild climate, we will inevitably get a period of extreme climate...
- After Peace - We will get war
- And I predict you - The new Airbus A380 will fall from the skies- Evenually. ...Because that is what human technology does.
--- And so on....
And if you do enough of these, eventually you can say Hey see??? I got one on the mark! I'm a Seer!!! ...Or perhaps just someone with enough common sence to make intelligent deductions and therefore predictions...

Try to make one yourself that looks just as clean and heavy like this one with balsawood and then just by hand and as a One-Off- How many manhours in knowhow, modelling and fabricating will that cost? That is why that chair is so expensive.

Skip-

If you use epoxy on wood that thin, it gets impregnated through and through. And then it is the woodfabric with the epoxy itself that gives enough support and crosslinking within the material. One only has to use an extra layer of glasfiber if the wood cannot get impregnated inside-out.

No please no don't go there- Don't go into the "What is Art" discussion.... Because that is a discussion that is about as old as art itself. And all that time over all those millennia's really no definitive conclusion other than that it really is a discussion without end or conclusion has been reached.

...So let us please stick to the produce of mr. Norman Rockwell...

Depends on how you define space.

In the "making 0f" clip they talk about roughly 100.000ft or 30 kilometers. That is way below the 328083.33ft or 100 kilometers mark that is the hight that stands for the edge of space as defined by the International Aeronautical Federation and that was reached by Spaceship One to be recognised as a spaceship with a true astronaut.

But even then- I doubt if this kind of balloon could really float up to the top of the atmosphere, because- like this one does on camera- most balloons explode far below that level...

Sorry but I miss the point of why this sould be called the best commercial ever...? Ever...? We humans only just begun with this medium. And then- A boring little more than a minute of a chair that rises from the planet suspended from a balloon and that ultimately falls to pieces.

Ehhhh ...Yeah....? ...So what....?

Well I am quite sure that if I'd have one of these while walking on the street in folded position where I live (Netherlands)- within the shortest time I'd get in serious trouble with the cops...
