Many middle-aged and older people have fond memories of playing with tops when they were children. Some of them, in fact, despite the passage of deacdes, have never stopped enjoying them.
On the Changfu Bridge in Sanxia (Taipei County), a street artist places an old Coke bottle upside down and then, from four or five meters away....
Swish!
The red and white top breaks free of its binding string and pirouettes through the air like a ballerina, then lands gracefully on the small target bottle, still spinning as if awaiting acknowledgement of this incredible feat.
And invariably... the crowd goes wild!
