    Inspired by your video, I have repeated your experiment. It took me two years of sophisticated spud science to finally get to the point I am now. I’m able to launch a potato at 369.72mph from a respectable 4000 feet with enough precision to easily cut the potato into 25 beautiful evenly sliced fries, that lands into my gourmet fry grease. When you eventually revisit this idea, the key is to lube your spuds before throwing them into your launcher and AIM. I cannot stress the importance of this step. Once I shot the potato into the springy part of the racket, in a way that my potato ricocheted back at 200mph and took off my entire arm. Losing my arm sucked, but knowing I wasted one of my precious potatoes to bad aim stung even worse.
