This looks amazing...but hard work!
A new DIY trend has kicked off in Japan - people are turning aluminium foil into shiny balls.
According to Bored Panda, it all started last month after a tweet went viral.
Twitter user @puchuco709 shared a photo of a smooth, dense silver ball and said it had been created by hammering and polishing a 15 metre-long roll of tinfoil.

Soon after, people in Japan started creating their own versions of the project and sharing the results online. Demo videos have millions of hits.
The trend requires some skill...and incredible patience!
Who knew aluminium foil had other uses than packaging and cooking?! Would you get on board with this DIY trend?
