My friends and I decided to do something a little different for Halloween. We made a trebuchet, 4.25' tall, 6' long, with a throwing arm totaling 8' in length. We used 150lbs of counterweight. We built the whole thing saturday afternoon, stored it on my friend's back porch, and moved it to a field near dusk.
Sorry but this is the only other pic I have of it that you can see much in.
This is the largest remaining piece of the pumpkin.
We didn't have a full-on video camera, but a digicam with video function ... got this:

God it was awesome.
