  • How hard is it to not hit yourself when doing this? I wanted to learn how to crack a whip and throw with a sling, but I'm worried about smacking myself in the head...

  • @Supermassively In the beginning your hands seem not to listen to you :) It seem it is impossible, but after a while you will be surprised with results. When I started stones were going all over the place I could not trow more than 30 meters, but suddenly with right technique I got more than 100 meters - it was great braking point :)

  • с левой руки?! молодчик!! браво!

  • спасибо :)

  • what kind of projectile is he using in this video?

  • Simple stone 100-120 grams

  • So my morning devotion was 1 Sam 17-18. David and Goliath. I wanted to see some sling throwing on youtube. This is what I found. I will be hard pressed to get this image out of my head. The sling throwing is awesome, albeit eclipsed by the fashion apocalypse that this fellow is donning. I can only guess that a little girl somewhere is missing a top from her closet and a 6 year old boy is missing his jeans and a soldier is walking around bootless.

  • The Arabs do have slings.............

    Please do some research before you make stupid comments in the future. Thanks.

  • Very good! This Slingshot is very great. You can get it on jocatapult.de. Its the Model "CataSling".

  • @KissakiSan well said, I have seen shabbabs in Palestine defending their villages from israeli colonists with slings

  • OK ASSHOLE.SLING YOUR ASS AND GO AWAY

  • @1234ledfox it says 39 meters per second dumb ass

  • that looks quite effective. 

  • 39 m per hour thats shit sling shot goes faster

  • Imagine if that tarp was a riot cop & your'e a protester!

  • @ThisIsWar14

    You best be trolling. The Middle-East is one of the very few regions where the sling is still being used to this day. (Look up the "Israeli-Palestinian Conflict." The Palestinians frequently have nothing better than slings to combat the encroaching Israelis.)

  • Great slow-mo multi camera angle shooting. Excellent work. Before this I did not really understand Greek Style slinging but now I feel confident that I could get the knack for it with some practice. Thank you for posting!

  • eh, lame. i throw mine over hand and can get more like 70yds.

    my brother has thrown one four hundred something feet. so yea, take that

    but good accuracy
