[MZVIRB]

I'm working on getting it to go up the stairs. I've got great minds helping me.

[2tonesg]

It's LOG! LOG!

[FTGSpaceCrabs]

Mine got tied in knots :(

[FadedRose99]

@FTGSpaceCrabs its that cheepy plastic... they don't last very long but i had fun trying to untangle them or when they didnt get untangle, throwing them at my brother

[7nikad43]

My slinky went down the stairs out the door down the street and into the bar. Never did see it again.

[ruffstff]

@7nikad43 haha thanks for the laugh

[SETHWANTSAHUG]

Back when toys were good and simple... And made of poisonous metal like they should be in the first place...

[MattTheSaiyan]

Very good colour photography, looks like a well-preserved print, a lot of 1960s colour commercials seem to have faded to a purply-reddish colour.

[cheeseisgood999]

[jennifermaloley]

Whoa!! You are to get a Slinky?! That's just freaky.

[ninja221100]

I fail at playing the slinky i don't know how.. ;(

[casinobowling]

THE PLASTIC ONES SUCK ASS! TOO BAD THEY DON`T MAKE THE ORIGINAL STEEL ONES ANYMORE!

[jennifermaloley]

@casinobowling They do! I just got one not too long ago!

[gees1123]

i liked the part when the slinky rolled down the stars that was AWESOME!

[girlstorm09]

I have the metal slinky as well! Just have yet to find small enough stairs for it to tumble down on lol

[guitarmasterjar1]

i have the original metal slinkey FTW!!!!!!!!

[louisianagirl4life]

i got one today!!!!!!!!

[jackmiller954]

@louisianagirl4life I GOT ONE YESTERDAY!.LOL

[wishpackers]

I didn't know they still sold them. I want some for my kids...and me too.

[barrelbabe95]

i want a slinky =(

[Angelbuddy101]

I dont know, they are just getting to complex i guess....im not sure, but i know they just dont work as good

[Angelbuddy101]

Slinky's don't work like that anymore

[supercrazyassfatbulk]

why not??

[mortarish]

they never did, at least not back in late 60's.

[partygirl209]

i miss when Slinky was the 'it' toy!!

[keymonk95]

just got one yesterday :)

[gondolacrescent5]

I'd remembered the words and music to that commercial 40 plus years afterwards.

That's an effective commercial. How many Slinky's have I owned since? Perhaps 5.

People will buy anything if it's well advertised. Slinky proves it.

[tjfreak]

is it true if you put it at the top of an up escalator it will

stay in place as long as the escalator moves

[guruatomik]

Escalator steps are really wide. I'm pretty sure a standard slinky won't get far.

[LightcycleChampion]

YOU ARE TO GET A SLINKY

[Mike1964]

This is the one I remember. Was the late 60s?

[dutchman063]

they only work on narrow stairs which were hard to find

[xSN00ZYx]

OMG THIS IS SO BOSS

[britzproductions]

i miss slinky i had a color full one i loved it

[MarioZone69]

The Slinky I have comes in packaging like that, with the slinky crushing the smiley.

[blowmanx]

WTF James?

[JamesRichardKroupa]

yes. james. the creator.

[WittyUserName4958]

I could never get my slinky to go downstairs like that

[dogharper]

because ur stairs were too long

[perys66]

i had a slinky when i was younger. now im 30 great toy.

[Dylan6758]

What a stupid invention! Slinkys would never sell if they made them today!

[corsey987]

They DO make them today....

[Dylan6758]

I know. But I meant if they just started making Slinkys today it would be one of those things nobody knows or cares about.

[funnybird067]

but they do still make them? i made a video with the one i got yesterdat for $9.95 aus

[madx80h]

Everyone loves a slinky... then at 0:28 it says: YOU ARE TO GET A SLINKY. demanding much? aha

[78Shellac]

No. It says You WANT to get a slinky, not you are.

[thesixtiesguy]

When I was six years old, i decided to connect the two outlets on opposite sides of the hallway with a slinky. I'm 51 and I just off being grounded last year.

[lojackm]

thats hysterical!!!

[78Shellac]

Ahhaa, well that's just a real cute story there sport.

[mottledbrain]

They went down stairs in commercials but I could never get one to traverse more than two.

[musicom67]

Of course... Notice how the 'stairs' are VERY narrow just so the slinky can go down. Normal house stairs have more depth, which is why we never could get them do this!!!!!! Trickery, I tell you!!!!!

[aboutashow]

i only remember 1 slinky comercial, but by then, i guess they didnt need 2 advertize, but it just displayed a slinky going down a flight of stairs, w/ a creepy echo sound, and then a clip of this song...weird...

[jazzybee1]

They should have never made plastic slinkys..The metal ones worked the best.

[fab4crazystill]

hahaha....i had many slinky's when i was a kid and i always ended up getting them tangled!  :(

[vampireheart301]

when the slinkys went down that slope, it looked like robot legs walking down a sidewalk, hahah.

[chickenbro5]

it looks so weird whenever they walk across the floor... like people actually walking... lol

[gwncih1]

The memories. I had a slinky, but I could never make it do the things they did in the commercial.

[chickenbro5]

i never could make them go down stairs, haha

[Eliopolous]

Probably because they took 20 takes to get it right:!

[LibertyCrusader]

Am I the only one who finds the singing voices in these Slinky videos creepy?

[MoeGreensRightEye]

Don't know. I do know that you're probably the only person who thinks Robin Williams is funny.

[RomZomCom]

No, you're just the one who thinks he's unfunny.

[bluzzzylover]

NO WAY I AM TOO

i hate when its like you are to get a SLINKY im scared

[OrangeBananaYolk2000]

can't reist... must buy a slinky!!!!

[visor109]

They now make plastic Slinky's....CHEAP!

[vampireheart301]

and gay

[castletriglav]

If you get it tangled, you might as well toss it.

[castletriglav]

I still have 2 of these in different colors from the 60s.

[MNC117]

Hall naw! You should never toss these away, they're easily fixed.

[MastaKadaj]

"You want to get a Slinky!"

Ah, the good old days when subliminal advertising wasn't subliminal.

[Shimmerkitty]

love these classic commercials

slinkys have come a long way too from just being silver
