Joerg Sprave Builds a Custom Slingshot That Would Make Goliath Cower
Michael Hines — March 31, 2011 — Unique
Joerg Sprave is a slingshot enthusiast who has created what can safely be called the deadliest slingshot in the world. The machete slingshot is exactly what it sounds like -- a slingshot that shoots machetes.
Sprave's slingshot is not a true slingshot per-se; the piece is actually an interesting hybrid between a slingshot and a crossbow. Regardless, the machete slingshot is still definitely as badass as one would expect. As depicted in the video, this interesting weapon is capable of doing some serious damage to cardboard pieces and other objects alike. We have featured a few slingshots on Trend Hunter before, but none have been nearly as kickass and deadly as Joerg Sprave's machete slingshot. Click the video to see it in all of its cardboard-killing glory.
