- bigboludo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this was on digg a while ago
- mattd, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Found this site using StumbleUpon and tried it out. Its not as hard as it looks.

- DiscoLoke, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0How is the story fake? And who cares if it was on /. 6 months ago, some people don't read /. . Besides if /. and digg couldnt post stories that the other posted then not much would be posted lol. This is neat! It is tech related since it has to do with engineering. You internet nerds need to learn that there is more to TECHNOLOGY than WoW and freaking MPAA stories. This is an awesome story hands down! Anyone writing negative comments about this story is just showing how stupid and retarded and anti social they are. Hence they must go on every freaking story and write DUPE and FAKE and not TECHNOLOGY!

- harshbarj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0dupe. reported.
- bluekangaroo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0 I saw this very site about six months ago (not through digg or /. ) and decided to try it. It actually does work with some patience. No glue required... but dont drink a bunch of coffee before trying!
TRY it before claiming its fake... - Rage321, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I bet making these penny artifacts gives you stinky fingers!
- manatee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0ha...this would have gone great with http://www.millionpennyhomepage.com

- cbdgr, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1i think the coral is down but not the site how lame
- george616, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0its brilliant, not insane, beautiful

- nickzee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0///got nothing this story is boring... we stacked prisoners ...
//sad
/got nothing - Coelacanth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0OLD! if you were true masters of the internet, you would have seen this years ago, but its still cool, so... w00t
- Brymstone, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1how exactly is this tech related?
- G-RaZoR, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I bet he can't do that with quarters.
- alevel27mage, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1"how exactly is this tech related?"
It's science related. Digg has a science section.
But seriously, this is really, really old. Why does it seem that people think it's ok to take 6+-month-old stories from /. and Hack-a-day and post them on Digg. It makes the site look crappy. - iceburn2003, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0mr data just couldnt handle it
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I think I would rather get laid than be known for penny stacking.
- 703_KN33, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0waaaaay too much free time.
- ImKenny, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Wow.. that is crazy.
- geartype2, on 10/12/2007, -1/+010 pennies a standard stack, with 3 making the tri tower, standard base has 12 sections, multiplied by 20 rows,
I'd rather buy a dvd. - saysaknow, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0lol@alphgeek
- alevel27mage, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Do you not see the physics in this? It is OBVIOUSLY science, and it would be a cool trick for a teacher of something like High School physics to show off. It IS, however, a dupe.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0i don't know if i'd call it INSANE.... but ya, its pretty cool. if i had enough time (and money, lol) then i would
- sock2828, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Dang you would haft to have alot og pennies for that.....
- Bladerunnerx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0He's got a lot of time on his hands.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0If I had a penny for every time someone says "amazing" when looking at that page, I'd have enough pennies to build all of those things.
- Erkan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0great vintage stuff
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0jesus crist...dont breathe!
- nonokiaboy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I'd rather be known for getting laid while penny stacking.
Or pussy stacking. Just no fat pussy. - Perryman, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0this appears to be _the_ penny stackig page on the internet. there are a few others on the nets but this one is by far the best/biggest. This one is like one of three or four. Personally, I have about 1100 pennies stacked into a 3 sided pyramid right now. +digg
- kungPow, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Penny stacking and old Tetris commercials. Great site.
- gamabunta, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I'd give him a dollar for that.
- nonokiaboy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Feel the hate.
- eigh, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0wow, very sweet.
and if this is a dupe of someone elses story, then im sorry for them that it got burried and this guy got the credit. - dawa259, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Someone has way to much time on there hands!!!
- Trjn, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0First time trying it, I just made a 6 chip wide bridge using poker chips. Only took one Futurama episode (22 minutes) including time to fill some drink bottles with water to use as weights at the middle stages.
Fun, but not overly impressive once you try it yourself unfortunately, the only hard part is getting enough poker chips/pennies/coins. - nickzee, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0You guys seriously don't believe some of these stacks. People here at digg have never heard of :
