JAPANESE MAN MASTERS THE ART OF STACKING COINS

Have you ever tried stacking a bunch of coins on top of each other? It is not the easiest thing to master. However, Japanese Twitter user @thumb_tani (aka Tanu) seemed to have mastered the art of balance after some dedication and practice.Making use of his sense of equilibrium, Tanu creates small yet fascinating sculptures from carefully-positioned stacked coins. Tanu has taken the skill of coin stacking to a whole new level. He has even incorporated other materials such as toothpicks to get the desired coin design.

Tanu creates intricate structures that range in shape and size. He will first start off by building a strong base with staggered coins. He then goes on by creating the impossible. Tanu balances the coins in an upright position and then places them edge-to-edge without the discs falling. From there on, he sometimes even continues to further stack more coins (or other objects) on top.

The sight is absolutely mesmerising and definitely one that you’ll want to hold your breath for.
