Title: Fruit & Veggie Slinging
Post by joe_meadmaker on Jan 14^th, 2022 at 10:17pm

I've been collecting short clips of me slinging old fruits and vegetables on my phone for a while. I finally got enough to make a little video. No competitions or challenges, this one is just for fun.

I'm sure the critters around your way appreciate that.

I do the same with any oranges that go bad before they get eaten. Never tried a celery though. Some of those hit pretty hard.

Maybe this summer you can go pick some jalapeños out in the woods :D

Oh... How did the chili turn out?

Small potatoes, I sling whole, but if they're to big for the sling, I cut them in half - twice as many projectiles. ;)

Ha! I actually can't say for sure. That video (I only know this because of the timestamp on the original file) was recorded on Feb 2, 2021. So almost a year ago. All those clips were spaced out over time. The potato hit was recent. When I got that I figured I had enough clips to put a short video together.

I don't recall ever making a chili I didn't like though, so I would guess it was good. :)
