If you’re like us, you’ve probably wondered what 175,000 water balloons looks like. Praise Jesus, because the Christian Student Fellowship has answered our prayers.  A few weeks ago the school gathered up 8,957 people and set what is now the world record for a water balloon fight.  It all went down at the Johnson Center Field at the University of Kentucky and the results were spectacular.

Balloons have really gotten a bad rap lately.  To usher in a new era of balloon appreciation comes the Balloon-Copter.  Its design and premise is simple in that it is a propeller that is powered by the CO2 in the balloon.

From there the balloon can rise up to 50 meters given the size of the inflatable all the while making a whistling sound to let you know it’s in the air.  A potential great stocking stuffer this Christmas.  On sale now for $7.50

Fancy yourself a betting man but don’t have the balls to pull the trigger on a real gun?  The Russian Roulette 2 carefully holds an inflated balloon in its clutches. Pull the trigger and you’ve got a one in six chance that the trigger loaded pin will fire, resulting in an ear blasting, but non lethal balloon explosion.  Endless amounts of drunken betting can be yours for $16.
