Yo

Via Deadspin, the Yo-Yo World Champion:

It’s actually hard to even make out what exactly he’s doing. Mostly, it seems to be wrapping the yo-you around one arm or the other while keeping the other going in around-the-world-fashion.

But here’s the thing, I’m decent with a yo-yo. Restated: I can throw and catch the thing and even walk-the-dog. But watching this, I have no desire to become that good, half-that-good, or a quarter-that-good; let alone try what he’s doing.

And thinking about the time he must have put in to be capable of that, my mind boggles. I wonder if he puts them down to eat.

The endorsement deals must be pretty sweet.
