    The Origami God

    the only translations you need to know, is the hosts called him 'the origami god',
    everything is done with a single piece of paper,
    and the last one, its white for a hint, took him a week to make.

      I've tried my hand at origami on a number of occassions.... this just impresses me to no end.

          Seen this guy before, well his work - impressive beyond words. I'm not even sure you could call this origami anymore it's so above and beyond what most people are capable of doing.

          Brian's right... just wow.

              Yep, everything has to be created via folding. No other alteration of the paper is allowed. There is an alternate form called kirigami (sp?) that does allow for cutting.

                  I can make a crane and a frog, but they pale somewhat in comparison to that video...
