Indeed it does! I'll move it to the correct forum section.  smile

I used to own a yo-yo with a "brain". I broke it when it slammed to floor at an attempt at walking the dog.

Re: Yo-Yoz!

I nearly strangled myself with a yoyo by accident before, so I always stayed away from the little killers.

Re: Yo-Yoz!

I once had a yoyo, but it was a hobby or anything. I wasn't good at it...

No it was a rock with rope or sometimes it was metal. A ball of metal with spike on rope is called a flail  tongue

Re: Yo-Yoz!

This thread is sugar-coated in fail.

an excerpt wrote:

Yo yos are from the Philippines

Anti-true, they are not.

another excerpt wrote:

They are from WWI

Fail again, they way predate that.

a third excerpt wrote:

WRONG.

*The reason I did not give the correct answers is because someone's gonna shout WRONG! for no reason.*

They are right:

1. They are from the Philipines
2. They are from the 20s
3. The weapon version was similar to a yoyo coated with many spinning blades.

No, I have known this for a while, but I do believe that they are predating before the 20s.
