We show that these unusual mechanical behaviors, reminiscent of those exhibited by amorphous materials and glassy systems, are the result of the collective dynamics of a large number of mechanical instabilities formed across the sheet during the crumpling process. These localized, bi-stable degrees of freedom interact and frustrate each other, giving rise to complex mechanical responses. Our findings inspire new designs for smart mechanical metamaterials.
