Question How many can you do?

How many coins can you flip off your elbow and catch?

I just this minute did 22 2p coins.

By flipping a coin off an elbow and catching it, do you mean throwing the coin upwards with your elbow, or having the coin rest on your elbow, removing the elbow, and then catching it?

Didn't realize more than one at once was possible.

Just did 25. (Right hand, right elbow.)

Edit: Also just did 25. (Left hand, left elbow.)


Edit#2: Height of 25 coins: 4.3 cm, diameter: 2.4cm, diameter of hole in the middle: 0.4cm, weight: 0.14kg
