Why are these people digging through my closet?

[Mik]

That's nothing. They got in your pants too.

Looks more like the Mariana Trench to me.

If you had a big enough needle and could drag it through the Mariana Trench it would play ‘Paul Is Dead’.

Only if you did it backwards.

Watch to the end.

@jon-nyc Very cool!!! Why does that happen?

[xenon]

I'm guessing because the bricks are not allowed to fall "all the way" until the last one. And that little bit is the difference between them falling all the way down vs. catching the edge ever so slightly.

V. cool. Must have been super tedious to set up (probably some sort of spacer.

I'm guessing cinder block magic, but Xenon's guess is also valid. You just need to live your own truth when you decide who is correct.

@xenon When the second to last one falls, it makes sense that the space between that one and the last one is a little bit more than the space between all of the previous ones. But what makes that second to last one "jump" forward just a little bit? Would like to see this in slow motion. LOL

[Aqua Letifer]

I pride myself on knowing what was going to happen before it did.

[Horace]

I have yet to see any scientific proof that it wasn't cinderblock magic.

@George-K Aaaaah!!! Thanks George!!!

People are coming up with so many ingenious ways to entertain themselves during quarantine, I can't imagine that we don't have the ingenuity to fix the mess.

Now children everywhere will grow up not believing in cinder block magic. Great job George.

I keep hearing that as "cinder block magic woman" in my head
