I'm not sure if you mean from professionals or just anything, but I have a Jaw Harp that can be fun to make noises with when bored.

I've started this clip at the 42 second mark because everything before is just warming up.

I like making people listen to the performance, and identify how many instruments they hear.
Then I show them the video

I thought he was just sampling himself and replaying it at first, definitely did a double take :)

and it looks like he changes notes with the tuning handle thing because it lets him bang out some drum with the other hand. not a gimmick.
