Because "TsStatic" doesn't do that - they are just "static". The only animation that they can have is a constantly looped "ambient".

Try "StaticShape" instead. And you'll need to keep your collision mesh convex.

TSStatics are 'lightweight' no-frills objects to be used as props that pretty up the scene. For script interaction you have to use ShapeBase objects: StaticShape, RigidShape, Vehicles, Player, etc..
