shocked when his channel went wildly viral. He has a great sense of humor about it, and people send him suggestions all the time for things they want him to put in the press -- play doh, paper folded a bunch of times (it actually shattered!), coke bottles, etc.

They must have made him in smaller models than the one I had, based on the size of the guy's hands.

Also, the one I had wore fabric briefs. Those look painted on. I guess Hasbro, or whoever, thought too many kids were trying to take Stretch's briefs off.
