1:16 had to look twice to spot "H"

[@ryanalley9753]

I love the pop-ups! But it’s disappointing that only the English speaking paper engineers got to talk about their designs. Please make another video and caption it to make it accessible and include comments from paper engineers who speak languages other than English...

[@recoveringsoul755]

Is that why some didn't speak? They easily could do subtitles

[@paulodepaula4740]

Belíssimo.

[@teresita.bustos]

Maravilloso

A great and amazing project :D Thanks uwu/

[@violainefournier7123]

Dear Peter, I would love to acquire this set, but live in the Netherlands and having it shipped from the USA almost doubles the price... I was wondering if there is another way to find it in Europe? looking forward to any recommendation you may have. Thanks!

[@Jasonthecoolagain]

[@user-yo1yv2fq7l]

B is missing

[@laurendg4280]

Anyone based in LA or Las vegas that does this ?

[@kellyaustria3035]

People say "I" is the best letter? Memes say H

[@andreyk8081]

Вот смотрю я это из России, какие же вы молодцы ... У нас в России одна ненависть, всех надо разбомбить , всех захватить . Страшно .

[@hunainzafar3479]

H was a stretch of imagination. Could be done better
