Meet Leslie Scott, the woman who invented Jenga

[@KieranMcClung]

More of this please. Surprisingly captivating and genuinely interesting.

[@eurogamer]

+Kieran McClung Glad you liked it! I'm keen to do some more tabletop coverage on the channel, so hopefully we'll have good news on that front soon.

She stole the game from Ghana. She didn't invent shit

[@MountCydonia]

A fascinating video, thanks for doing this! Leslie seems lovely, too. More videos like these would be great!

[@deanopain]

Delightful lady and interview! Now where's my Jenga set?

[@BagelsBagelsBagels]

so insightful, great video!

[@zagobelim]

She's so adorable!

[@thomascollins3200]

Between 7:05 to 7:10! Guy pulls back and regrouped after what I thought was a glitch in the video!😂😂😂 Good save!

[@michiganjack1337]

She is such a lovely and fascinating woman. Not to mention the inventor of my family's favorite tabletop game.

[@chilly22]

great memories of playing giant jenga in our local ski village bar in sheffield with my mates!

[@SmevMev]

First thing I thought about was the Jenga episode from The Allusionist podcast :) Nice to have some unusual videos on the channel too

A new hero, A new legend,

[@ramkumarr1725]

Hi from India. We call it Jenga. Fun! There used to be research that the Russian game Tetris will improve brain size and people used to play for half an hour after food religiously. Jenga is like real Tetris.

[@ramkumarr1725]

I built a car racing game in 1998 with DOS and Curses in software. Even I could not win that. That was done by a person I knew. I saw on some of the older Nokia phones. They have * for potholes and # for cars. Who knew gaming would be so big?

[@MattGambell]

This is brilliant. Thank you so much for this.

[@ramkumarr1725]

Stacking up once the tower has crumbled must feel good 😂😂

[@MDKII]

Great video. I hope you do more stuff like this.

[@MrBlacksheep12]

Could you imagine the nervousness of playing Jenga with the creator?

[@TaiStar42]

Thanks for inventing this game. it helped me achieve Guinness World Record

[@JonatasAdoM]

Imagine everybody yells "timber!" as the tower falls.

[@GglSux]

Thanks for a delightful and interesting video.

[@BoardGameSanctuary]

Have great memories of Jenga!

[@liannova2785]

Great video guys!

[@zakisveryepic3035]

I’m so mad right now, I knew a guy that took wood pieces and stacks them and told us to take a piece away and put it on the top and he later submitted it to a game company in the 1970 and never heard back. And a few years later he saw this game called jenga and he was so upset. This is so disappointing to watch.

[@VermillionCain]

She seems lovely.

[@NTLBagpuss]

Okay how many times did it fall over? Looking at the cuts the tower is often in a different position after the edit.

[@mistamonke7505]

Bless this women

[@thestinkyburneralexander2511]

great vid

[@Silvermeow]

So are you guys hearing "janga" or "jenga"

[@MathieuVIII]

Hasbro need to get their *** together and put the name of the designer of the game on the boxes. How can we accept buying their games (and in my case selling them) without the author being credited like in every other designer game (Catan, Carcassone, etc.)

[@Adrian_Stone]

MathieuVIII She sold out to the Pokonobe Brothers early on. It changed hands a few times before eventually landing on Hasbro's doorstep.

[@ramkumarr1725]

I had tons of fun with this game. I think I have it in my bedroom. Good one. I thought it was Chinese. It is Swahili 🙏👍

[@tssvchannel4295]

Just came to confirm with the owner that the name came from east africa now I'm at peace

[@TheEvilMammal]

I won't lie, when I saw Bratt's twitter picture of Chris and Leslie sat together, I thought it was Chris sat with his Mum playing Jenga....

[@Scooterman1001]

Yo British made jenga

[@Luke1000]

I enjoyed this

[@cringecentral751]

heith sent he here

[@ramkumarr1725]

Seriously for many people it will be like meeting JK Rowling and asking for station 9 and 1/2 to catch the Hogwarts train. So cute.

[@ramkumarr1725]

What is weird al yankovich in the background? Is this an Amish game?
