Jacob’s carbon-neutral spin

Jacob experiments with spinning several items, either by pushing them on the ground, or by holding them in the air.

With his preparation time running out, Jacob panics and returns to the option he’d had the most luck with – spinning a book on a length of twisted string which he is holding.

The book does continue to spin, back-and-forth, but Jacob begins to buckle as his arm gets tired of holding the book up.

He eventually admits defeat and drops the book after 5 minutes and 11 seconds, earning last place.
