'Condom applicator slingshot' makes safe sex as easy as a firing squad

Talk about going in, guns ablaze.

 

Slingshot expert Joerg Sprave has risen to the challenge of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which has a standing offer of $100,000 to anyone who can make condoms easier or better to use. "Nothing fascinates male human beings more than guns and sex. So when we combine both, you must see the huge potential this has," Sprave said.

 

"Sprave’s condom slingshot features a leather patch —adjustable size, of course— that the condom can ride onto its…final destination? Well, next to final destination, anyway. All a user has to do is load it, cock it, and then point a pistol-shaped object at his penis, which may be the least instinctive thing to do with a pistol-shaped object," Geekosystem described the device.

 

Sprave showed his device in action in a YouTube video, where he said he still needs work on the device's aim:

 

Of course, viewers of the video may have to take a closer look at the description of the video:

 

"Please keep in mind this is comedy and NOT a serious project. :)"

 

 

On the other hand, Geekosystem said it can only hope the condom slingshot is really just a joke.

 

"We’re kind of never sure with Sprave, so we’re just going to not ask how far he intends to take tests on this idea, which, I think we can all agree, is the worst idea," it said. — TJD, GMA News
