Waterbomb Catapult

Remember the days of the old school yard? We certainly do - that's why this site features a stellar array of daft devices. Like the saying goes, "we don't stop playing because we get old; we get old because we stop playing." With this in mind we're proud to unveil one of the most utterly infantile devices ever to grace our pages. The Waterbomb Catapult is a total triumph of amalgamated tomfoolery, in that it cunningly combines two of the most childish yet entertaining pastimes known to mankind in order to create one stupendously amusing plaything.

Because let's face it, lobbing water-filled balloons at people is hilarious no matter how old you are. So imagine how much funnier lobbing them into the distance via a specially adapted catapult is. Especially when it takes three like-minded buffoons to operate it!

The added oomph Waterbomb Catapult gives to a filled balloon is truly impressive. This three-man weapon can lob a balloon up to 200ft! And once you get the hang of it you'll be splatting adversaries with more velocity and accuracy than you could possibly imagine. In other words, they'll get completely soaked. But because you're so far away, they won't know how it happened. Result!

This simple but highly effective water weapon is great fun when used in large open spaces. We suppose kids might like it too - although the ones we splatted in the local park didn't seem overly impressed. Weird.

Using this brilliantly asinine device is easier than poking out your tongue: one of you acts as the 'puller' manning the elasticated sling whilst two other reprobates hold either end of the cradle. The puller then draws back the loaded sling, aims and lets rip. Water laugh! It's all a bit Middle Earth meets Looney Tunes!


The sturdy Waterbomb Catapult is a back-to-basics way of waging watery warfare, and the utter childishness of boinging balloons at people has been known to prompt some into donning their old school uniform, nicking a few penny chews and playing kiss chase with passers by. So we hear.

One thing we can guarantee is that the Waterbomb Catapult will provide you and your friends with hours of inexpensive, rubbery-jubbly fun. It's the most fantastic, bombastic bit of rubber and elastic we've seen in years. Last one to order is a sissy!
