Even a simple Super Ball carries some risk. Flying at you at Mach 2 from some crazy angle after bouncing off two walls and your brother’s head...
My brother and I decided to find out if we could bounce a superball over the house. Slammed it down on the driveway as hard as possible ... watched it arc off into space ... spent an hour searching the back yard before finding it.
Yes: we could indeed bounce a superball over the house.
Lesson: Next time, put an observer down-range to spot the impact.
Now that there was funny...
I lost a few super balls on the school roof.
