NINJA!

But seriously, if I would have tried that (which my highschool self would have. I'm a tiny bit smarter now), the spear would have glanced off the box, shattered the sliding glass door, showering me in glass shards, and turned 180 degrees to impale my scrotum to my ankle or something.

It just cracks me up that in all these videos they always leave the shooting line attached

Ok, as gross as this is, I have a buddy that fought with a family of raccoons in his attic for months. His only successful way of getting them out was unfortunately with his speargun. Sag but true.
