Human slingshot

[AAjax]

I would puke, for sure

 

[TheGizmo]

it'd be cooler if it actually shot you off and you landed in a river :thumbsup:

whoa

Any chance of someone getting smacked into the ground on that? 😛

Hard to tell without seeing the whole setup

i'd be more scared of one of the bungies breaking sending you off into outer space, or one of the poles breaking. could be disastrous. but that looks like good backyard fun.

thats what i was thinking

 

[Sniper82]

that can't be good for your body.

I thought for sure she was going to smack face-first into the hill in front of her! :Q

I wonder how many iterations of bungee lengths they went through to get it right?

Ver1.0 - too long, Troy impaled on big oak tree in front of slingshot
Ver1.1 - still too long, Troy smacked face off small tree next to big oak
Ver1.2 - too much tension, Troy crashed into house on backswing

Etc, etc. 😀

Reminds me of the Mythbusters episode about the Mexican illegal entering the US by being projected over the border with a giant slingshot. 😀

 

[mobobuff]

Holy SHEET! That's some g-force, right there. Possible to black out on that thing?

I was thinking the same thing. :laugh: Just watched that episode off my Tivo last night.

The only thing missing from this video was a "Hey y'all! Watch this!"

*barf* My cookies would certainly be tossed 😛

 

[ryan256]

Ooohh... provided there's no possibility of hitting something that looks like fun 😀

 

[Toastedlightly]

Sign me up.

[Scarpozzi]

LOL at the rednecks.

 

[ViviTheMage]

haha, i was hoping she would get launched into or at something.

 

[SonnyDaze]

Damn that looks like fun but it sldo looks like it has the recipe for disaster seeing that it was thrown together in someones back yard.

They probably haven't had the slingshot inspector come out yet.

Wow. Just.... wow.
