      @@cylnder I mean we all saw how hard he had to pull for that. A lot of candy makers that I have seen it used heat insulating gloves and don't cool the candy down nearly as much as he did just because it's so hard. I think part of what helps the people who make a bigger batches though is that the candy is heavy enough that it stretches itself for a little bit. That's why a lot of the candy hooks are hung on a wall at about head height.

    I was super anxious throughout the whole video looking at him dealing with literally boiling sugar with BARE HANDS and with minimal protection, that anxiety turned to massive respect later as he pulled and stretched that candy by hand. He must have so much strength and skill, plus experience and scars to be able to do that. Mad props.
