Yanhao Deng of Chenzhou, Hunan, stood a 100-yuan practice note, the full-size kind bank tellers train with, on its edge like a half-open book and balanced two AA batteries end to end on top of the fold. Both hands come away and the two-battery column stands on the note alone for about two seconds, while the camera swings round to show nothing else is holding it up. RecordSetter checked the hands-free stand frame by frame in the unedited video. Two batteries, one fold, no glue.

Yanhao Deng of Chenzhou, Hunan, stuck 10 coins to the lower half of the face using nothing but skin. In one unedited take of just over two minutes, the face and coins are wiped dry with tissue, then the coins go on one at a time under the eye in two rows that curve back toward the ear, with one more down by the jaw, and any that slip get pressed back into place. With both hands down on the desk, all 10 stay put for about nine seconds, and RecordSetter counted every coin in the closing frames. Loose change, not so loose.

Yanhao Deng of Chenzhou, Hunan, stuck 14 coins to the forehead using nothing but skin. In one unedited take of nearly four minutes, the forehead and coins are wiped dry with tissue, then the coins go on one at a time, with any that slip pressed back into place, until they form a band of silver from temple to temple. With both hands away, all 14 stay put while a stopwatch held up to the camera runs past 10 seconds, and RecordSetter counted every coin in the closing frames.

Yanhao Deng of Chenzhou, Hunan, stuck 8 small coins to the back of one hand with nothing but skin, holding the hand upright with the fingers pointing at the ceiling. In one unedited take of about a minute and a half, the coins go on one at a time and get pressed back into place when they slip, then the free hand pulls away and all 8 stay stuck for several seconds. RecordSetter counted the coins in the closing frames of the video. No glue, just dry skin and patience.

Yanhao Deng of Chenzhou, Hunan, kept a 1 fen coin stuck to the back of the hand for 4:10.30 using nothing but skin. In one continuous take on a bedspread, the hand and the coin are wiped dry with tissue, the coin is pressed on, and the hand turns palm up so the coin hangs underneath before a smartwatch stopwatch starts from zero. RecordSetter watched the coin hold on until it dropped onto the bed, with the stopwatch stopped at 04:10.30 right after. Four minutes held up by skin alone.

Karl Sortland filled a paper coin wrapper with 40 U.S. nickels and folded both ends closed in 19.03 seconds in Kaneohe, Hawaii. Working at a wooden table with a phone stopwatch beside him, he packed the coins into a two-dollar roll, then opened it and laid out the nickels for verification.
