You’re probably thinking of the huge no-jive that for a long time held the world record for largest working yo-yo… it has been on display at the National Yo-Yo Museum for many years now… they still drop it now and then (from a crane). The yo-yo Lucky owns is non-functional as far as I know, it’s roughly 6’ tall, was built by a school shop class I believe. Kyle
