why am I thinking “Giant Hamster Ball with human gyroscope in it”, lose the net, and just let em roll
Sorry, but that’s the Sommerset Trebuchet, which is in Britain, not Japan.
The use of which resulted in an Oxford student’s death in 2002.

One of the operators even broke her pelvis after bouncing out the net a couple of years earlier.

Somewhere I have a video of people being flung into a lake by trebuchet…
The japanese title says “イギリス・サマーセット州” which translates to Somerset, England… probably taken from japanese TV.
That really is the height of stupidity- to risk your life for a five second thrill.
sounds like coke to me
This website sucks and the video thingy is broken so buy a new one you poor, cheap skates.
VERY NICE!
