Toe Delay saved my cell phone

Just wanted to share my beautiful experience with a falling-from-my-hand cell phone (brand new

) who was rescued by an automatic Toe Delay.

It happend so quickly that I swear I didn't want to move that leg...it did it on its own

I'm pretty sure that footbag actually saves lives.

...and cell phones.

yesterday i was drying off my roommate's shot glasses and i fumbled one (which i just found out was her favorite

) and instead of it crashing on the floor, i caught it on my toe and popped it back up into my hand!

i was rather proud of myself

same thing happened to me and my cell phone, but it just bounced off my shoe and probably got even more damaged then if i let it go.

One time I opened the fridge and half full gallon of milk comes falling out all of a sudden. I have no time to catch it so I figure what the heck and try and toe delay it. And I get it! YES

So.. a month later I'm opening a cubard and a gallon of apple juice falls out and I COULD HAVE CAUGHT IT with my hands BUT I WAS LIKE, oh I'll just try and stall it, so I toe stall it.. NO I DONT TOE STALL IT, a GALLON OF APPLE JUICE SPILLS ALL OVER THE KITCHEN FLOOR> IM PHUCKED!

This one time at band camp....

That apple juice story was hilarious. You tried though.

Frozen dinners and ice about the only things I've saved from the floor falling out the frig.

Spare coin change for me on occasion. People that pass by when I use a vending machine and glance by to see if I need help in picking up fallen change were checking their eyes to see that I pop the coins back into my hands flawlessly.

I still don't see the beauty to what they find is amazing. I have butter fingers.

One time I was helping some guys put up a platform when one of the support s fell while I was holding the other supports. I caught it on my toe and I was standing on one foot while holding supports with my arms and one with my foot. It was sweet.

I was in the kitchen once and I opened a high cupboard and this heavy ass metal kettle fell out. I could have cought it, but like the apple juice story, it wasnt my first reflex.
I was bare foot.
It hurt.
I didnt catch it.

hahaha! i've done the same thing Ville. whenever something falls i try to catch it with my foot. I've done it with knives on accident

but pulled my foot away in time.

Props on the Cell Save!
