(Dan gasps)
- [Dan] Go.
(screaming) Oh yeah, we got it!
- Welcome back to What's Inside?
I'm Lincoln and this is Dan.
Today, we are going to cut open Fidget Sticks.
- Is this the new cool fidget toy?
Can you remember the other two videos
that we have done on fidget toys?
First-
- [Lincoln] We have Fidget Cubes.
- This was kind of a thing that
all of a sudden people were like,
"That's not enough for me.
"I need to have something that spins."
Fidget Spinners.
These things are still pretty popular
but they are getting banned at schools across the country.
- Not mine. - Because they
are kind of annoying.
We got our friend Stephen.
- Hey.
- If you guys follow us on Twitter and Instagram,
we posted something this last week saying,
"We want to do summer collabs with
"channels that are up and coming,
"that are fun, that make great content
"that are under 100,000 subscribers."
I didn't even know these were a thing
until he was like, "Yes, let's collab
"and let's do Fidget Sticks."
what in the world is this fidget thing?
- They're weighted on both ends
and they don't stand up every time on their own.
As you can see, they can lay down flat.
But if you have the soft touch.
Ooh.
- Ooh. - That was good.
That was impressive because sometimes
you hit it too hard and it's like, it won't flip.
- [All] Ooh.
- One of the coolest things that
you feel like so accomplished when
you finish it is when you just
nicely go like this and then it just stops.
Then you're just like oh! - It's completely,
that's actually possible?
- I've done it once.
Have you? - Okay, I've done it twice.
That's it.
- [Dan] Why don't you guys both try it?
I'm gonna put the camera right here.
Let's see if either one of you can get it to flip and stay.
- Wait for it.
Aw.
Oh my god! - Oh!
- [Dan] Oh!
- No! - You were so close.
- [All] Oh!
- [Dan] We're gonna get it.
- We got this.
- [All] Oh!
- No!
- [Dan] This is it, I can feel it.
Oh, you hit it so hard.
- It's doing it, oh.
- [All] Oh!
- [Dan] How's that feel?
- Oh yeah! - Oh!
- I got it, woo!
- Oh yeah! - Oh!
- Yes!
Yes!
So Fidget Sticks, they can be fun.
You have to have a very hard and flat surface.
This table does have some grooves in it
so we had to find a spot that was really really flat.
Here's your Fidget Stick up close.
You can see this is made out of some,
it feels like it's wood.
Then you have this rubber tip that's completely flat.
Both sides are the same.
It looks like it's shaped the same way so it can just roll.
It is a little bit rounded.
That's why you can't push it too hard
because it's not completely round.
People actually take it and they
stop it up against some sort of item.
You think that's easier or harder
than what we were just doing?
- I think it's easier.
- I'm gonna say easier.
(upbeat electronic music)
- [All] Oh!
- Got it, okay.
It's definitely easier.
- [Dan] All you need for this trick
is an angle grinder box, and a Fidget Stick, and a Stephen.
This is called the blow over.
Oh! - He almost did it!
- These are really fun to play with
but we need to get down to business.
What is inside of these things?
Like how are they weighted?
- I have no idea. - Are they evenly balanced?
There's one thing about Stephen's channel that I love.
He does a mini music video.
Stephen, would you honor us with a mini music video?
- Oh, we got you.
(upbeat electronic music)
- [Man] Get ready.
- That music video was awesome.
- That was rad.
Subscribe to Stephen to see more mini music videos.
These things.
They're everywhere. - Ah!
- They're everywhere.
Let's see if we can just take these
little funny looking plier thingies
and pop the top off of it.
Ooh, chipped the corner.
Oh yeah.
(light electronic music)
- [Lincoln] What?
- It's just plastic inside.
That is crazy, it's just this little rubber thing.
- See, that shows it's sticky.
- Dang, it's gonna be tougher than I thought.
We are gonna need this awesome looking tool.
Lincoln, get to a safe area.
Okay, we're gonna hit it.
(loud banging) (upbeat electronic music)
(clanking)
Ah! - Oh!
- [Dan] Okay, we broke the inside of it.
- [Lincoln] It's such thick rubber and then it's plastic.
- I don't know that this is rubber on the outside.
It feels like it's just a softer type
of plastic that's smooth on the outside.
On the inside, it's just this hard,
almost like a PVC pipe that goes through it.
(loud banging) (light electronic music)
Woo!
- It just looks hollow. - Huh.
- But there's really like no metal in there.
- I'm just really surprised there's no weight on the end.
I really thought there would be.
- No metal. - 'Cause you can noticeably
feel like the weight at each end.
- When you're just holding it. - Yeah.
- For sure.
On the end, it does look like it
has some sort of structure that
keeps it stabilized and strong.
But then it's just the hard plastic at the end.
Then they take the rubber and stick it on there.
So really not much to it.
I think the Fidget Cube had a lot more to it.
The Fidget Spinner with the bearings.
I would imagine that if yours feel
like that it's off and it's not working properly,
maybe you just got one that's manufactured the wrong way.
- Yeah 'cause some of the rubber tips
aren't centered on these I noticed.
- It's never going to be as big as Fidget Spinners.
- But are they fun?
- They are pretty fun.
- Come over to Stephen's channel right now.
I'll put a link right here at the end.
You can go watch it. - It's gonna be awesome.
- We're gonna hydro dip
some of these Fidget Sticks. - Yayuh.
Check it out, go subscribe to Stephen.
- Does anyone like say fee-jeet?
That's what I like saying.
It's much more fun than saying fidget.
Like fee-jeet spinner.
- Weirdo.
