It does work when hurling too, it was just easier to film like that.
I'm not really sure if it released at right moment, but when I was slinging (I was slinging just to test it, like just...slinging) it worked well.
I've got used to the clocks, so I don't hear them. It's worse sleeping without them... I love my clocks, even though it's much work, I'm really happy to have them. Some of them have to be pulled up twice a day, so I've got that habit that I every morning when I get up, pull them up.
I buy them cheap, because when the oil dries out, people think that they just dont work. So when I buy them, I get them cheap, use an hour to oil them, and once in a while I check them and make them go right. Not much work, but really fun.
