Video Transcript

"There are paper airplanes and then there are origami airplanes. What's the difference? Well, it's the size of the paper. My name is Robert Segundo. Today I'm going to show you the difference. We're going to take a square piece of paper, which is how we're going to make our origami airplane. What we're going to do is we're going to name a whole bunch of fancy folds for it, we're going to start with the sheet fold or shawl food. Like so. And we're going to open it back up. And basically what we're going to do is we're going to go into our kite base, like so. Fold it in half like this. And really you're just building a paper airplane, you're just making it fancy by calling all these folds out and making it seem like you're doing something other than what you really are. There we go. So, now we have it set like this and what we're going to do is we're going to take it and fold it back up. Actually what I'm going to do is I'm going to fold the point down, I'm just kind of going to pick a point here somewhere and fold it down. This is really unnecessary, it's just something I like to do. Fold it back over, and just take the wings, fold them down like so, same thing over here, fold it down like so, I wonder if it flies. Ah, it does, look at that. My name is Robert Segundo and enjoy making your origami airplane."
