HERE ARE SOME PICTURES OF JAPANESE 1-YEN COINS
I "LIBERATED" SOME TOOLS FROM DELTA AIRLINES
THIS IS THE "OBVERSE" OF A 1-YEN COIN
THIS IS THE REVERSE OF A 1-YEN COIN
PICK UP A COIN WITH A PLASTIC FORK, COURTESY OF DELTA AIRLINES
CAREFULLY PLACE 1 COIN ON THE SURFACE OF THE WATER
CAREFULLY PLACE SECOND COIN ON THE SURFACE OF THE WATER
CAREFULLY PLACE THIRD COIN ON THE SURFACE OF THE WATER
CAREFULLY PLACE FOURTH COIN ON THE SURFACE OF THE WATER; NOTICE THAT THE COINS HAVE DRIFTED TOGETHER
CAREFULLY PLACE FIFTH COIN ON THE SURFACE OF THE WATER
CAREFULLY PLACE SIXTH COIN ON THE SURFACE OF THE WATER; THE PREVIOUS FIVE HAVE DRIFTED TOGETHER AND NUMBER 6 FITS IN, LEAVING ONE SPACE.
CAREFULLY PLACE SEVENTH COIN ON THE SURFACE OF THE WATER; PLACE IT NEAR THE
EMPTY SPOT AND IT DRIFTS IN. NOTICE THAT THERE IS A LITTLE WATER ON TOP OF THE SEVENTH COIN, IT IS LIKELY THAT IF WE ADDED ONE MORE, THE SURFACE TENSION WOULD NOT SUPPORT IT AND THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY WOULD SINK.
SO, FOR NOW, THE WORLD'S RECORD IS SEVEN COINS. CAN YOU BEAT IT?
