Watch this 'impossible' ring and ball puzzle get solved

This video is an oldie but a goodie.

Here's the setup: An elderly Japanese gentleman named Akihara Toshiko has been trying to solve a ring puzzle he found in his doctor's office. He gives up and writes the TV "detective agency" show Knight Scoop to ask for help. The TV show agrees to help the 73-year old man solve his puzzle. And, that's where the fun begins. They pull in a physics professor, a chimpanzee, a magician, and, finally, a real expert who knows exactly how to solve the puzzle.

That is one incredibly satisfying video.
