SpearBearer Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Have any of you gotten a penny or quarter to kink? I've been trying this for about a year and yesterday I finally was able to kink a quarter. The problem with this though is it's almost impossible to prove I've done such a thing on video, as the coins are covered almost completely by the hand. I know stanless steel can and hairculese, but I want people to know it's possible no matter how big you are. I'm 145 lb at 5'6". I could add a video too if you want, but I'm new to this site and I think that might have to go to the rest judging section. Thanks, looking forward to hear from you guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Nejedley does this at a lighter body weight I believe. Check him out on Instagram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Flesher Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 No need to go through feat judging - go ahead and post a video! Upload to YouTube (unlisted if you’d like) and share the link here. I’d love to see this feat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin Seitter Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 I’ve folded a penny in half before but it’s so painful I haven’t done it in years. In fact the last time did any coin bending it was with Larry wheels back when I was stationed in Japan. Dude really surprised me when he kinked one on his first try after I showed him how to do it. That dudes insanely strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was bending them with Larry that was using a thigh crush and the penny was wrapped in a few layers of note cards or pages from a magazine. Most recently the pennies I’ve bent have been in crushed between the handles of a gripper. First time I saw it done that way was when Tim Butler posted a video of it on Instagram with a CoC 1.5. It was so cool I had to try it but I did it with a GG3 since that was the only thing I had in that same rgc range. Found out old pennies are WAY tougher than the newer ones and some new ones even have a tendency to just snap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
