Phil could also have heavier feathers (higher density) or he could have had a pillow full of feathers with a heavy object in it.
Pillows by the way do not have feathers. They have cotton. And if a pillow is empty (no cotton), it technically isn't a pillow now, is it?

hate to break it to you iconofsin but you can get pillows with feathers in them still...(they're just insanely expensive)

The whole is a complete ditto from a popular board game. At least teaser writers should add something of their own creativity! Fun, though.
