On Twitter, @TechInsider shared a video of a house built by the company Ten Fold Engineering which is able to expand to three times its original size by folding in on itself! The home could have fascinating influence on people's mobility and housing affordability.

But, for the most part, people were amazed!


Some Twitter users were a little less than impressed, saying similar things have been done in the past.
