When safety is not an issue...

I crack up every time I see this...

You better hope the "slinger" has great aim at 80 mph!
I guess it would be good for fly balls, but 80 mph pitches?
Has anyone actually bought one or seen one in action?

Those guys are so far behind the times, its not funny. My brothers and I built a treehouse around a natural slingshot. Its been 45 years so hopefully the people whose homes and yards I bombed with oranges, cantelopes and watermelons are dead, or at least the statute of limitations have run out.

I just about fell over when I saw the picture of the guy with the helmet behind the optional guard. All I could think of was short bus.

Haha...that reminds me of this article from "The Onion" from a few years back. Not very politically correct, but damn funny.
