It's really hypnotic. I wonder who was the first one to set a bazillion dominoes in nifty patterns and then push the first one. The others behind it cannot get out of the way. They are stuck right where they are will thus to whit therefore go down too.
Moral?
Be careful who you stand behind. Else you will become another pushover too.
Beautiful, but maddening! If, after getting it all set up, you don’t put the key dominos in carefully, hours of work falls flat. That’s why many “professionals” use a template to set them up.
The size and density of a domino affects how it falls as well as the speed of which it falls.
Trump’s such a fat domino that it seems like it’s taking forever for him to fall. However, when he finally does… ////////__
Yes, yes, yes!! Competitions, professionals, novices…!!!
Intricate design? That’s kind of an understatement. There’re domino walls, domino towers - we’re talking walls and towers that are several feet high made entirely of dominos (imagine setting one of those up), color coordination, spelling out words or logos, designs, some are even Rube Goldberg style, some are underwater. All falling down on cue - one at a time or thousands at a time.
What, you’ve never seen these? Check out the video below. If you want to see more, Google or YouTube it! From competitions, to the Guinness world record, to school competitions, to seeing how they set them up... spectacular! Hours (sometimes days) to set up, all for a few minute of show.
