The diabolo is by far one of the most exciting props to watch. The fact that you can throw an object high up into the sky, and then catch it on a tiny bit of string, astounds people! It is very simple to do, although it does take a lot of practice to perfect it!
Diabolos evolved from the Chinese yo-yo, which was originally standardized in the 12th century. Chinese yo-yos have a long thin axle, with disc-shaped wheels, while the western diabolo is more cone-shaped. The diabolo also comes in different colors, sizes, and weights. You can do as many diabolos as you can shuffling it on the string, or throwing them in the air.
The diabolo was a favorite toy of physicist James Clerk Maxwell, who was said to be quite good at performing with it. This toy is not to be confused with Maxwell's demon, which is a thought experiment.
Contrary to some opinions, the term "diabolo" was not taken from the Italian word for "devil" - "diavolo" - but was coined by French engineer Gustave Phillipart, who developed the modern diabolo in the early twentieth century[1], and derived the name from the Greek dia bolo, roughly meaning 'across throw'. Confusion about the provenance of the name may have arisen from the earlier name "the devil on two sticks", although nowadays this often also refers to another circus-based skill toy, the devil stick.
