Angular momentum: ice skater effect
 
This angular momentum movie was my first movie, podcast for the first time in spring, 2007.  Aggie Payton and Jarvis Peters were kind enough to be the stunt men here.
 
The arrangement of mass relative to the spin axis has profound effect on spin rate, due to conservation of angular momentum, as this video shows.
