Ocassionally I get emails from the World Egg Throwing Federation. That name always gets my attention, there's something about any 'world federation' that cannot be ignored.
Their last e-mail contained a link to the world competition which this year included egg throwing trebuchets. . Here's some fun video of the days events, watch to the end to see the trebuchets. What a great way to use a trebuchet, however those kids trying to catch the eggs downrange - ouch. Looks like their protective clothing has a little padding in it, plus it seems they limited the distance and velocity with size limitations on the trebuchets.
George Clooney was invited to the affair, but he declined. Imagine that. An invitation to be the guest of honor from the World Egg Throwing Federation and Mr. Clooney turned it down! Jeesh George, where is your head at? What great publicity you turned down!
