Well I went to the annual Punkin Chunkin contest to see my cousin his group maintain the world record of 4876ft. Yeah thats pretty far for a 9 pound pumpkin, hehe :) They only went 4426ft but thats ok, its just crazy to watch that thing shoot (pic below). Now just to give a person an idea of the forces exerted on the pumpkin, the massive air tank through a special valve propells the pumpkin at the end of the muzzle to a velocity of 723 miles per hour :D In order to get the goal of a mile, the velocity would have to be some where around 770, which would be breaking the sound barrier. Pretty Impressive if you ask me.:D
 
All that, just to hurl a punkin? And they say we rednecks are bored to host tractor pulls. :p
 
That thing does nothing but chunk pumpkins? Somebody needs to get a job.....
 
I might try a little Punkin Chukin on ol Mspbunch tonight. :p She likes Halloween games.:D
 
lol :D yep all it pretty much does is chunk pumpkins. I guessthat what happens when you got a group of engineers thats been at the bar too long in a city names the Pumpkin Capital of the World.
 
That thing is sweet! I always wanted to got to one of those pumpkin chucking things. Looks like alot of fun. Must be a Yankee thing.:)
