Nitinol paper clip into water

Its a special kind of metal. You form it to the shape you want then set it with heat. Once set the metal holds the "memory" of the shape then you can bend it anyway you want and to get it back you expose it to heat. It can also work with cold instead of heat.

Thank you so much I can now die in peace

No problem. :) I'm here to help.

To prove that it's not time lapse
