Who would have thought that a Yo-yo could kill you!

Mostly farming tool originate from weapons but a kids toy!

Didn't Michaelangelo use a yoyo in one of the ninja turtle movies to beat up on the foot?

A yoyo would be a great weapon, they were banned at my school when they were in fashion.

They were banned at my school as well (that has been a few years ago). I remember when EVERYONE had to have a yo yo and people would play with them in class and get them confiscated.

It makes sense though, next time you have one, play around with it. you can sling it very powerfully. I think it uses the same logic as the chain whip, but on a smaller scale. You can throw it, wrap a limb or neck, sling it, walk the dog, and many other effective attacks.

And, yes one of the ninja turtles did use it in one of the movies. i think they actually did a little research for that movie - or maybe it was coincidence?

It is also a little known fact that the slinky was in fact a weapon designed to fend off intruders invading a castle. They would walk down the stairs, alone or in pairs, and make a slinkity sound. Quite troublesome for the those not having the advantage of the high ground.

And you say I have trouble deciding between fantasty and reality!

I think they are called tricks, not attacks in the playground, I missed that craze, But reading your posts I am pondering going into town today???

I saw an advert the other day on TV, with light up ones, glow in the dark and all kinds of special features!

I guess I am to old though, maybe I was not ment to experience the joy of yo-yo's, Fate.

Any other wierd weapons?

How about a skipping rope?

Were hopscotch grids designed to confuse attackers trying to find castles?

Gameboys were used in the war to track enemy communications?

Yes, because there is a difference between tongue-in-cheek humor and outlandish claims.
