Weird sand toy sweeps through the internet

This video is popping up on viral sites across the web. If you’ve watched it you’ll know why; this is freaky sand. It seems to move from solid and sticky to free and sandy with just a little pressure. The result is a “kinetic sand” that makes a great toy (not on carpets, I’d wager) or a way to improve your fine motor control.

I’ve found it on sale at Amazon.com. They stress is confirms to safety directives for both the US and EU market. Waba Fun, the people who sell it, say it’s Swedish but admit it must ship from the US for now until they get local agents in Europe and Hong Kong.
