Bungee Ball
Bungee Balls are toys that are produced
as a means of enhancing a person's hand/eye coordination.
However, their purpose is not limited to that, and they
can be used as a source of recreation or entertainment
during a boring situation.
Traditionally, a bungee ball is made of plastic, and
at one end a person slips slip his/her finger into a notch
and at the other end is a large ball containing synthetic
liquid. Bungee Balls were a fad in March of 2003, and
the most Bungee Balls were sold during this time period.
After March 2003, they started vanishing from stores,
partly because of controversy over what was contained
inside them. They were also discontinued in many stores
because usually after about 4-7 hours of use, the bungee
ball's bungee cord would snap, making the toy useless,
and the ball itself would break, releasing synthetically-made
liquid. By October 2003, nearly all of the bungee balls
had vanished from retail stores, and are now are mainly
available by online shopping.
