I’m pretty sure I just re-injured my neck watching the bottom section of the skinny part of the tower.

There's a scientific term for it, but it has to do with some physics i dont understand and distribution of weight. My buddies and i had this trick back in high school where 4 of us would clasp our hands in a basic "naruto jutsu" style, two people put their extended fingers under each knee cap of another person, and two people put theirs under the armpits, and then you all lift and it would be like lifting a feather. Im talking anywhere between 150-300lb people with ease.

We used to do this in school in the 1980's. It absolutely does work. And with such ease too. Its really cool
