I always wear my balaclava when watching Timpa's videos. It just does not feel right without it.

Now the balaclava does not help. There must be a helmet. When the Petanque ball has hit me, it flies toward the camera. It may come through the screen.

Timpa’s videos seem to be getting a bit more and more dangerous. Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed this?  Undecided Nevertheless, this is shaping up to be a cool vid.

This will be a great video, petanque is a great game, but only a Finland guy can use it with a sling  Wink

No no. If I had a video camera, when I was a teenager, those films would be dangerous. Shocked

I used to do crazy shh....ughh...stuff, that's it, crazy stuff.

However, due to global warming, I don't seem to heal up as fast as I used to.  Must be all the excess moisture in the air or something.

Here it is.
I take into account the safety aspects, but I also take conscious of the risks. Smiley

Yeah that could have gone badly wrong. I don't want to be reading on YLE "Man injured in slinging accident" because if it isn't me it's bound to be you Cheesy
