Jacob invents his way around learning to hula-hoop

From his initial attempt, it is immediately obvious that Jacob doesn’t know how to hula-hoop.

After trying a few more times, Jacob has Mark hold up the hula hoop, while he jumps through it.

In the studio, when asked to demonstrate his skills, Jacob instead brings out an invention: The Incredible Intergalactic Hula Hoop Machine.

This device is a hula hoop suspended by string and connected to an electrified propeller, mounted on top of an American football helmet.

When the helmet is plugged in, the propeller spins the hula hoop around, while Jacob pretends to hula hoop by gyrating his hips.

However, in peak comedic fashion, the propeller’s motor turns out to be broken, so the hula hoop does not spin.

Historically on Stormester, points have not been awarded for special individual tasks, and this is no exception.
