Have there been any technological advances in boucey bouncy ball technology in the last decade or two? What is the most dangerous boucey bouncy ball I can buy?

Edit: I will admit 3 things.

  1. I don’t spell good
  2. I def forgot about newtons 3rd law of motion and that bouncy balls aren’t magic or something. They will always have less energy than I throw it with after the 1st bounce.
  3. Gonna have to think of new way to commit murder. I could shoot bouncy balls out of potato cannon but that feels cheap.
  4. I don’t count good either

    This is a pretty good answer, but my inner child says nah. Golf balls are for adults. I want a bouncy ball!! Or bouncey ball! (depending on your persuasion 😉)

      You can carefully crack open a golf ball to reveal a decent bouncy-ball.

      From memory, I think it is a weighted core, wrapped in a long thin strand of rubber.

      Glue the rubber strand to stop it unravelling and it should be good.

      (Crack open carefully means with a vice and a hacksaw, rather than using any knife)

      Edit: Turns out the wound rubber strand is only in balls up to 1970, newer balls have solid cores which may be fixed to the outer shell in a way that is hard to extract the bouncy-ball.
