Dancing Nokia 3310 Phones

Remember those old Nokia phones that felt like they could survive anything? Some of them could apparently do something even stranger—dance across a table when they rang.

Inside the phone, a tiny vibration motor spins an off-center weight. That uneven movement creates the vibration you feel in your hand, and on a smooth surface, it can actually make the phone slide or spin.
