The Best Squirrel Catapult / Launcher
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 жов 2024
- My latest squirrel catapult build. It took about 3 months to get it just right. I wanted to build one that is ultra lightweight, easy to transport, has a safety feature along with a more compact power supply that is easily chargeable.
The frame is all aluminum, I decided to scrap the tension spring system and went with an interchangeable elastic band which is a lot lighter and more versatile. The power supply is now a DeWalt battery made possible from seelite adapters which makes other brand battery adapters as well.
The new pull motor is an 80 RPM 12 volt that is activated by a momentary control box that is remote up to 200 feet.
I painted this one desert camo to blend in with the environment to look natural for the yard and the squirrels.
The base is still wood and the anchors are 12" solid steel drive in spikes that are easy to remove and tap in for more stability, control and accuracy. The spikes can be driven into gravel as well.
This is a 2 piece unit, so when going to a friend's house or camping you can enjoy the fun of squirrel slinging on the go. Just put some chips, nuts or any kind of snack in the launch basket, they will come. Deer feeder corn works best for timing and launches as they have to sit and munch opposed to nuts with shells to where they can grab and go quickly. They are smart, they will sit right outside the basket knowing you won't waste a good launch as they have to be in the basket.
Squirrels are stubborn, tough and destructive but also fun to just watch. So sometimes give the little critters a break and let them eat without sending them to the next zipcode every now and then.
The catapults purpose is to let them know who is boss.

Squirrel: YEEEEEHAAAAA
Nearby Squirrel: my turn. My turn.
Your neighbors must love you!
imagine being this guy's neighbor and seeing squirrels flying over your fence. LMAO!
"Yo Jeffro! you made me spit out my coffee this morning. funny as hell. just do me a favor and chill while I mow my lawn"
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@D4_JoRoimageng squirrel flying directly to the neighbour's face 😂
Next door Neighbor - Hey buddy, you noticed there's a heck of a lot more flying squirrels around lately ?
Neighbor - Me ? No not me, I haven't noticed any over here.🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿
The best squirrel launcher I ever saw was a clay pidgeon launcher set up on a guys deck.
Back in the early days of the internet, dont know if the video is still out there, but the damn squirrel dissapeared WAY over the treetops.
Hilarious.
One evening, while fishing in a gravel pit, I developed, (discovered?) a rat flinging technique. The line got a bit tangled, and while I sorted out the mess, I flipped the line behind me. When I got it sorted, I made a cast directly from where I had the line. I felt a weight on the line, heard a squeak, and saw a small shape flying through the evening sky followed by a splash. I gave up on the fishing as this was much more fun!
Love how you throw them in your neighbors yard 😂
That funny right there I can't stop watching it lol😂😂😂🤣🤣😂
There is nothing like a flying squirrel that isn't a flying squirrel!
After watching this, I think this guys day job is cameraman in the adult entertainment business.😅
i'm not criticizing your video... but i'd like to add to it....a lure and trap that deposits the squirrel into the bowl and of course a target area that contains a hungry squirrel dog in it... most satisfying ! ...
My neighbors dog almost had one. I didn't know she was out when I hit the button but apparently she grabbed the Squirrel by the tail but it got away. BTW the Squirrel is in this video. Look for the one with half a tail.
Pro tip : angle the launch trajectory so Rocky is framed by clear sky to more easily observe the in-flight flailing. Good design.
COULD NOT STOP LAUGHIN AT THOSE DAMN SQUIRRELS!!!! HILARIOUS STUFF!!!!
The squirrel must be having a fun time as he keeps coming back for more.
Great design !!! 💞😁
He launches them into the neighbors pool for free swimming lessons lol.
Be careful, you'll become the squirrel Disneyland!
Brilliant
Love it
1 more thing, more power!
Seems like the squirrel is enjoying the flying experience
They do
Check out my reply here.. you may enjoy it!
racking up some serious miles
0:22 lmao at the neighbors getting a brick through their window.
And HE'S OUTTA THE PARK!! 😂
Must admit I liked the whoops best.
Oh absolutely!!!!
As Jeremy Clarkson says... More Power!
This is a hilarious video🤣
This. Is. Amazing.
I can bring it to your house and send some flying.
Two suggestions. Electrify the squirrel just before launch. And send them flying into a tar pit.
Only then will the squirrels learn.
Certified Florida Man moment
Tim the tool man Taylor ,,would say more power ,,😂😂
Nice Tunes Brother you should drop some Vinyl ……..! Reminds me of Alex Reece
Wonder if I can find a squirrel slingshot video on UA-cam. Or maybe those Australian guys who drop bowling balls and stuff from the top of a dam have one where they drop a squirrel wearing a parachute. I'll check.
Next doors dog's are well fed then 🤣🤣🤣
Nice distance!
why do I find this so hilarious? holy crap, I have not laughed like this in a long time!
So, your neighbor is thinking, "This is weird A.F., it's raining squirrels!"
It's raining squirrels! Hallelujah!
Squirrel lives matter!!!
Your gonna shoot your eye out !
Do you have a high recidivism rate?
New subscriber....👍
Solely because of the squirrel catapult...!!!
A absolutely wonderful sport.... prof Jeff Galey...( The Jeff Galey Channel )
Too bad you can't fling them into traffic.
Neighbour : Yo dude !! keep your F... squirrels over your place or make a bigger catapult 😆😲🙈
Soooooo mean! 😂😂😂
Tree rats need this.
Cool music 🎶 ! I like it ! What it's call ?
UA-cam bans videos talking about vaccines, but man there are a lot of squirrel catapult videos!
There is 2 truths out there. Launching squirrels and vaccines are toxic poison. UA-cam just needs to give up on the censorship already.
I watched for the music . I stayed for the excellent squirrel tossing
OKAY... WHAT THE HOMEOWNER DOESN'T KNOW IS THIS ATTRACTS MORE SQUIRRELS......
So, Squirrel #1 did this. He got his peanut and went for a ride. All while throwing his paws up in the air going "YEAAAAHHHHH!!! WEEEEE!!!!! Then, when he landed that squirrel went back and did that shit again!! Just the same as your favorite ride at a carnival or amusement park... you know... that one that you could ride over and over??... Yeah, that happened.
Then, when that first squirrel had enough for that day, he went to his other buddy squirrels, probably at the local squirrel meeting they have every Thursday night and told them all about it. THEN WHAT????.... I'll tell ya...
The next day, a half dozen of them showed up the next morning. It was around 9AM. They were a bunch of younger squirrels so they decided to, firstly "BLUNT UP" . Then they went to the homeowners garage fridge. You know... the one he keeps his beer in>... Then each of them grabbed a beer and one of them said to the other "HEY STEVE, HOLD MY BEER!" (Steve is one of the squirrels name)
So Steve held his beer, that squirrel climbed up, grabbed a peanut because we ALL KNOW how well a peanut goes with free beer, right? So then he did his thing... yelling top of his little sqjuirrel lungs as he shot over the heads of all his squirrel buddies heads. They watched him fly over like we might watch an airplane fly low over us... looking straight ahead, upward, over us and then turned around quickly to see his distance. Well another squirrel got on his phone and called every squirrel he knew and told them to "get your ass over here! this is GREAT!!! "
So, moral to this story...
Don't build something someone will enjoy. Don't leave the garage side door unlocked so squirrels can get all your beer. Third... Tell the g'dam next door neighbors kid to keep his shit locked up.... Those squirrels were laughing all night long. keeping people awake while they were stoned and flying all night long.... Just words of advice to help anyone out here....
YOU'RE WELCOME!
More power please!
0:01 Thumbs up for the intro.
AWE--sOme
That is hilarious.
GREAT"Launcher"!,but try-smearing sticky
"peanut-butter"on the inside-bottom of
the bowl,so you don't"throw"shelled-peanuts
ALL-OVER Your-yard!("Attracting"EVEN-MORE
"Squirrels"!)🤭😅
I use creamy peanut butter with deer corn mixed in it with a dash of catnip. That gets them easily relaxed before their flights
How far does it throw them?
Depends on the squirrels weight, position and action upon flight. The longest hurl to date is 84 feet with a height on 53 feet.
It looks like flying UFO 😂😂😂
Copyright music 😶❓1970's porn film. The squirrel 🐿️ Should be delivering a pizza 🤣🤣🤣🤣!!
i love how there tails whip around like they are getting electrocuted while flying
That's their "rudder"!!!
lol Why do I find this SO entertaining? funny as all out. Thanks for the laughs. I just subscribed. Awesome! awesome! awesome!
Brings on a guttural laugh like watching a cow or a dog get hit by the electric fence wire. Thank you! Not a far reach to assume you a close with your neighbor. Sit in his yard with the TV and watch them fly to you.
This makes me so sad to see.
Troll
Haven't laughed this hard, in a long time!!!
The funky porn music adds to the magic.
Too bad you can't put them into orbit. Hilarious.
So after 10 launches, to they get their flying licenses? 😅😂🤣
The music's, sounds like some '70s porn!
I can see your neighbors wife screaming after getting, some squirrels lauch motorboat action.
with 1970s porn music
Brav-0
This Music make my butt hurt.... you know how to kill a video man
Music gave me a headache! Lol
I hope the squirrels weren’t hurt. This is borderline animal abuse.
I wouldn't do it if it hurt them. They are my squirrels. I feed them, A LOT. I have all kinds of special treats. I did my research on them before I even did my first launch. Once I found out a squirrel can literally fall out of an airplane at 30k feet and survive if it doesn't suffocate from lack of oxygen. It was a go.
@@SquirrelXLaunches they are a big ball of fluff. No matter the height they land as if they jumped off a fence.
"What happens if they fall out of a all tree?"
Nothing. They land on their feet, and pretend that they meant to do that.
Skeet.
Bwaaaah!!
Design a catapult that slams them down onto a mini trampoline !
You should let them get a few peanuts as a “reward”, so they can built even more trust and bring the others lol
Needs more power 👍
seems to me your throwing the bait all over your yard which will attract vermin.
That's cruel! But I love it...........
It's squirrels. There'll be ten more tomorrow.
Now, if it was a hydrollic press, that would be cruel.
@@geraldfrost4710 hydrollic press, wouldn't be too cruel. 1 second to crush their brain and no more squirrel.
*Splat*...oops.
I nearly wet myself laughing at the one where the squirrel was catapulted into the wood where he hit a tree and stuck! All four feet stuck to the tree. God don’t like ugly. We’re all going to hell. 😂😂😂
A punji stake landing zone or high-speed lead poisoning would work well.
I was thinking target practice into a chipper-shredder. Is that over the top?
@@geraldfrost4710 I had not thought of that. An active volcano would be good also but probably difficult to arrange.
Love the vids, but it’s time for these tree rats to truly spread their wings! Time for more pooooowa!
That is the next video. Can't give the best out first. Think.... tater cannon 😉 in the works now.
Dean, the new skunk works project is in the works. 🥔👈🐿↗️
@@SquirrelXLaunches awesome TS name! To infinity and beyond!
I wonder if this would work on homeless people
Pity about the stupid music...swircged off.
Amazing contraption…..very creative…but PLRASE LOSE THE AWFUL MUSIC!
Very amusing, but did you get your neighbors to sign off on having flying mammals hurled randomly onto their property? I can foresee that you might find yourself missing a chunk of your ass after the personal injury lawyers get through with you.
They call me when they stop flying. Thinking something might be wrong
All this is doing is spreading peanuts all over the place...
And 🌽 corn
You stole my song.
Sit on it!🤬
🤖 🤖🤖🤖🤖
you should be locked up for cruelty to animals
You should be in a mental institution for being an internet troll. For your stupid comment I shall launch 20 in your name into my neighbors yard where they will do what they always do. Land on their feet and come right back for more.
Poor quality video
@jackcureton8752 hey, at least I have a video/videos.
KINDA FUCKED UP!!!!
It's awesome 👌
mostly peaceful nut giveway
Rude A F
Rude as Jude Dude but I give the squirrels the best food that puts them in a flying mood that makes my videos good.
That's animal abuse! ☣️
I don't know if it's just cuz I am stoned, but it sounds like porno music!!I love this squirrel launcher too
🤣
Neighbour...who da fuck keeps tossing all these squirrels into my yard ?
Shazam says this muzak is from a 70's gay video. 🤫🤭
