An anonymous reader writes "An 'expert' from the Slingshot Channel has constructed what might be one of the most ridiculous yet awesome slingshots known to man. He has altered a machete and built a huge rig to fire it off with an obscene amount of force. Dangerous as all get out, but totally awesome!" There's a Slingshot Channel?

What this guy did, or the fact there's actually a slingshot channel. It almost makes me want cable again. Almost.

  You could probably make something like this with circular saw blades, too. Or radiators, toilets, engine blocks,...
Indian Panâ (Score:1)

This would qualify as an Indian Panâ, which is a fairly well known weapon / toy in the Philippines, and is basically a combination of the ideas of a crossbow and slingshot. Normally they are smaller and fire arrows, or in some cases, toy airplanes. Of course this fires a Bolo (Machete), but that just makes it more fun.
