Stunned kid lands an unthinkable pencil-flipping trick
There are a lucky few who find their calling in life early on and then proceed to make an Instagram dedicated to it.
Flips.9 is an Instagram account dedicated to flipping things. That's right, the entire account is videos of kids taking the water bottle challenge to the next level, successfully landing markers, crayons and even orange traffic cones.
Most of the videos on the account are made by kid-Instagrammer law.216. And a recent video of him nailing a pencil flip has both him and us blinking in disbelief.
He even posted a second, slow-motion version of the video in an attempt to prove that the video is not fake.
One look at the kid's face says it all. He can't believe he actually did that. We also can't believe he actually did that.
Follow your flipping dreams, kid.
