Oh shit you're right! At the last millisecond, it bumped the new bottom block squarely back into place. I have a feeling they ran this test a bunch of times before it actually worked.

[@rockerknight25]

If you look at the footage before she starts talking to camera you see it never touched it. Every other angle makes it look like it did because the camera is zoomed in which makes the depth of field shorter, but the blade was too far to bounce back and hit the tower.

[@HungryGuyStories]

The conclusion: the lever needs to kick the bottom block insanely fast. The first attempt, the lever was way too slow.

[@ryannoonan5518]

Hungry Guy yeah It slowed down when it hit the block and kinda got stuck

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

I wasn't even remotely surprised by that. The two main challenges to getting this to work is that the block has to be removed quickly enough that the next blocks fall flat. And, the vibrations that ripple up and down the tower need to be vertical to have any chance. Obviously, it's not easy, but the faster the bottom block is removed, the better chance you should have at that happening. But, even with that, it's likely to have a very high failure rate. I'm a bit surprised that they didn't try knock it off with something similar in thickness to the blocks and having it bounce back after giving enough force to the block to knock it clear.

[@JusBidniss]

The composition of the tower's stacked pieces is everything. The crashes all occurred when there was a gap in a middle layer that was opposite the direction of the bottom piece's momentum, allowing the stack above that gap to rock backward. There were two such layers on the blue actuator at the end, which worked due to its speed. It failed on the big blocks because it had a brief pause between striking and exiting the stack (seen using 'pause, comma, period' frame advance), probably due to its weight. A more powerful actuator might have worked on the big block stack.

In Elijah's tower pull that almost worked, there was an extra block in the bottom center that wasn't there for the super sized blocks. The same happened with Valerie except instead of 3 blocks she had 2 with one of them in the center. Those blocks effected the structural stability and integrity at the bottom therefore making it more likely to work than the other method.

[@C0LiSii0N]

If the tower is stable enough for you to be able to bang on the table fairly hard without it collapsing, just take the bottom piece and while you bang a good firm shot on the table pull it as fast as you can.

Also, the larger blocks may not have been sanded and smoothly as are the standard Jenga blocks, so the coefficient of friction would be different as well. However, the test really needed to be performed on the standard game for actual validity, regardless. I would assume the largest determining factor would be the construction of the rest of the tower and how stable the structure is at any given point. That would have much more variability in your results.

The problem with the bike experiment is the force is not parallel to the bottom block. The trick is you have to pull it straight with parallel force (like the slingshot is almost parallel). 5:46 see it in slow-motion, the head of the string moved up first. (Playback speed x0.25)

[@homestuck_official]

Fun fact: in base Jenga, removing all blocks from any level, even if the rest remain intact, counts as a crash, so this'd technically count as a loss. Of course, Jenga is a game and games are about having fun, so unless you were playing with robots or in some sort of strict Jenga competitive scene, this is so cool it counts as an exception.
