How to do the Jacob's Ladder

[kennedyevans]

Can't hear it

[Tigers3524]

Ummm, this is cat's cradle

[dwarduk2]

@Tigers3524 Um, no it's not :P. Cat's Cradle is a two player string game that's quite a bit different to this :P

Jacob's Ladder starts the same way as the Cat's Whiskers, though, if that's what you're saying.

[MrBILLIONBEAR]

Thats my ladder haha

[MsEdeutsch]

Thank you so much

[momopuddingpeach]

Thnx. I used to know, but forgot half the steps. Thanks!

[psesot]

In Eastern Europe this was a very popular kid's game in the 90s. I taught myself. You learn by practicing.

I didn't know this existed until this guys titled his video cat's cradle, but from the comments, it said he was doing jacob's ladder, so i decided to go look at how to do that. i just got how to do it right now, and it took me half an hour to find out how it worked!! XD

[LinleyTheBestMan]

Good tutorial! Oh, losers who point out dumb things like someone's voice when they put annotations. XD Silly gooses, tons of video cameras make your voice sound higher like a girl's. :P

[gwendefortun]

This is just what I like about YouTube! Thanks for helping me remember something I used to do with every piece of string I encountered. Fun to be taught by a kid! It was so satisfying to make the loops around my thumbs and then (BING!), I saw the light! Anyway, I appreciate it. :)

[AnimePrincess405]

i know how to do it now! this video really helps =D

[soccersarah28]

this freakin sucks

[blissblueblew]

yeahhh! i did it!

[DancingAngel2010]

I forgot how to do thys... i been tryin to learn again... but no one does thys any more

[elpsee]

you are going to fast and i cant even hear you

[bradjoe96]

All you have to do it do opening A. This requires you to loop the string around your three middle finders in each hand. Then, you grab the palmer strings on each side and pull. That's opening A. Next, You'll want to drop your thumbs. Next, you put your thumbs under all strings and pull last string to front. Thumb over near index string, under far index string. Drop pinkies. Pinkies over farthest string, under next-to-farthest string. Drop thumbs. thumbs over first two strings, under 3rd. Loop

[bradjoe96]

near index string around thumb and near thumb string to the former place of the far thumb string, (do this on both hands). Put index fingers through triangles just made and let go of pinkies.

[daffidflowers]

Nice video. I stumbled upon it by chance, but now i have something top try this evening! thanks

[choptop81]

Haven't done this in years. I forgot how to do it. Thanks for refreshing my memory. I'm going to try it again. I forgot how fun it was.

[frootyloops12]

[jon77gg]
