In this video I talk about the rise, fall, and rise again of Slinky and how its inventor was forced to abandon his wife and 6 children to join a cult made by mystery billionaires. I also talk about how the inventor's wife Betty saved the company after her husband fled to another country. I also talk about the toy's influence on the world via it's jingle being in many shows and movies and how Slinky ended up inspiring a Disney animator to make a character in Toy Story.
Thanks for watching!

Shoutout to Ken Sons and "Toyland" documentary for most interview footage. Awesome documentary fr insane go watch it.
