Tossing objects a tiny bit up in the air with one hand (or two if big), trying to have them spin as fast as possible and then catching them again. Screwdrivers, mugs, knives, bottles, plates, bags, balls, hammers, phone, tins...
With knives and other oblong objects, I try for rotating them in two directions at once.
There is a trick to catching wildly spinning knives safety almost all the time. I have mastered it. I have no idea what it is or how it works.
At first I read hamsters there instead of hammers :-) glad I misread that. I like tossing stuff as well, and have the same experience catching knives or other dangerous objects, it's weird how you can catch them pretty reliably.
Haha, no animals. That sounds horrible :D
