- TheBasass, on 10/11/2007, -2/+66Not to be an ass but, this is more of a 120' long water weenie than it is a water balloon. I was hoping for a 120' circumference balloon. That would have been awesome, and likely incredibly dangerous.
- ThinkBox, on 10/11/2007, -0/+52Balloon? or King Kong Condom?
- olddirtycr, on 10/11/2007, -2/+33It was sweet until I realized it was just a hose with no pressure on video 4. And that the kid is wearing a helmet... Here is a better idea with less work. Give each kid a hose.
- borninda818, on 10/11/2007, -0/+29I filled a condom with water the other day. Held about 2 gallons, no joke. It wasn't even oversize or anything like that. and it didn't pop. I dropped it and stepped on it and everything.
This just kinda reminded me of that...I wanted to share. - sexybobo, on 10/11/2007, -1/+23@borninda818 (#7296600)
poor diggers have so many condoms lying around because they can't get laid that they end up trying to use them as water balloons. - JD52, on 10/11/2007, -1/+21Coil about 300' of the stuff in someones car. Fill with water and make sure you hide the fill end well.
How do you deal with that in a calm collected manner? Answer: You don't. - Disclaimer, on 10/11/2007, -0/+16/lame
- MikeonTV, on 10/11/2007, -0/+15I have one of these is my backyard. I call it a hose though
- tizz66, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14I read the title: "Awesome!" I thought.
I watched the video: "Lame..." I thought.
What would have made this more awesome? That cat from video 3 sticking it's claws into the balloon! - dogstylee, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13That was really, really crap. I was expecting a huge water balloon, all I got was a tube which sprayed water 4 yards..
- mikesbaker, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13wow I was expecting a 120' diameter water balloon. Seems like the did a lot of work for something they could have done with a good squirt gun.
- getliquified, on 10/11/2007, -1/+14that was kind of lame
I expected a round water balloon and not a man sausage shaped one ;x - t4ll3y, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12The best part is when the kid wears a bicycle helmet during the water balloon fight.
- sTiVo, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12Hey, it's not so lame to a 9 year old, apparently. Rock on, helmet kid!
- D4r7h3v1l, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9I thought it was a huge ass water balloon dropped from 120 feet.
- Firemeboy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7I hope those kids realize how lucky they are. They have awesome parents.
- Teku, on 10/11/2007, -2/+9Impressive, but it really should be titled 'The world longest water balloon". When I think largest I think in spherical terms.
- Br0wn, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8Guess you don't have any better use for them.
- TheBasass, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7@titanmiller
No I thought circumference. Diameter would be even more awesome however. - Genthree, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6Maybe this will help ease your discontent.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzdItt5GexA&NR=1 - singlegirlgeek, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5I was hoping to see a very large water balloon as that would have been dangerous. Of course this day and age some stupid kill joy would have brought them up on child endangerment charges. Kids should just be allowed to be kids.
- ryancaroll, on 10/11/2007, -2/+7Why is the one kid wearing a helmet?
- Bensign, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5It was great until in the water fight video when....."HERE COMES MOMMY!!! (satanic scream)".........God damn, woman.
- graystar, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5.....and safe!
- 28dayslater, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Watching the 'World's Largest Balloon" made me yearn for the 'World's Largest Pillow"
- hasbeen, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3what a waste of time. Incredibly lame.
- Bob042, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3It wasn't so much a water balloon as it was a hose. But without a supply of water. I was hoping it would be a huge thing that they actually threw at someone, not just cut on one end and let the water out.
- roastedbagel, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Hell I cant wait for the "foam swords" thats coming soon on the site
- Nerfdude, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3know what would have made this infinitely better? NOT using "born to be wild" in a video of your kids having a water balloon fight.
- themastersb, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Buried as spam. Just some kid being an attention whore.
- jaredvolkl, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2World's largest water balloon? I doubt it. A fun day for some kids? For sure!
- munkyxtc, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3that looked like fun.
- mandarin, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Thanks for wasting water....
I was expecting a balloon , not a tube. - nesibus, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2How the hell did a "family video" get on the front page of digg.....it didn't say AMAZING, ATHEIST, HDR or Paris Hilton in the title...what has become of digg...
- drgnthug, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3of course it wasn't oversized......... you are on DIGG right now.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Jesus can't even heal this story. It's too lame.
- Pyroteq, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2You'd probably get busted if you did this in NSW, Australia due to water restrictions. =(
It was kinda cool, but the point of water balloons or water bombs is to peg them at each other. If you want to squirt each other use water soakers or the garden hose (besides, a garden hose has a lot more pressure behind it). - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2ok, thats not a balloon. thats a tube. a water tube. also its lame
- djh816, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1yo empty, you in the cville? i agree i love bodos
- surfacewound, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1"I was hoping for a 120' circumference balloon. That would have been awesome, and likely incredibly dangerous."
But the video of that would be soooo worth the casualties. - JohnnyXmas, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I'm sorry, this is lame.
I don't want it to be, but it is. It's a bunch of kids who decided to take an entire day of their summer to REINVENT THE HOSE, then squirt each other with it. Also, one of the kids has a helmet. I understand some parents are THAT lame, but then wouldn't they make ALL the kids wear helmets?
Subsequently, I hereby propose the following contest:
I will pay $7 to the first person to create a water balloon that is 120' in diameter, and drop it from a tall building onto someone. The reward will double if it hits a retarded kid or an elderly person. Quadruple if it hits Paris Hilton.
Quintuple if Paris Hilton actually makes the balloon herself. I will also piss myself, and post the video on YouTube. - th3heretic, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1You know what else makes better water balloons than latex surgical tube... Condoms.
- Piggycow, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Yeah i thought it would be some huge round one too, you can barely call those water balloons anyway
- MasterQ, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1making a 120' condom filled with water is only crazy enough to work here in the US so..... no metric :)
- rb89, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I looked at the title, and I'm like, this can't possibly be a spherical water balloon 120 feet wide. If the balloon was perfectly spherical, it'd hold about 904778.6842 feet cubed or 6768242.701 gallons of water. Water is roughly 8 pounds per gallon, so that's 54145941.61 pounds.
I was kinda hoping for the spherical balloon. - nullity, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1What brand was it?
... your Mom wanted to know... - scottjl, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1very cool. err. wet! thanks!
- inactive, on 10/19/2007, -0/+1Reminds me of when I was in college my roomates and I filled up one of those big blow-up punching balloons (you know those big rubber air filled balloons with a rubber band grip that you hold up in the air and punch it repeatedly with your fist) with water. From our second story balcony we called out to our downstairs neighbor and dropped it on him. It scared the ***** out of us when the balloon did not burst immediately on impact. The unsuspecting neighbor buckled under the weight of the 3.5' diameter water balloon like a paper doll. We thought we broke his neck. Turns out he was OK but just really pissed off at us.
- techie4life, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Its more accurate to say longest not largest balloon and is still isn't the world longest.
- limpbizkitt0, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Good thing they arnt allergic to latex
