If you have been following nerd news at all, then you know that Bill Gates has issued a challenge through The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. They are offering $100,000(USD) to the person who can come up with the best idea to improve on condom technology.

We’ve been having fun with the viral marketing campaign that Nabisco has going right now and have seen all kinds of ways to separate the Oreo cream from its cookies. But the one thing we haven’t seen is a gun that can accomplish this important first-world task.

Angry Birds. You either love the game or wish it would go away already. Well, no matter what you think, millions of people are playing it. Playing it so much that maybe it’s getting a bit stale.

If there’s one guy on the internet that we love around here, it’s master of all things slingshot, Joerg Sprave. The man has built all kinds of crazy rubber band powered weapons, and his latest is pretty great.

Our pal Joerg Sprave is one spooky dude with all sorts of slingshots around that will fend off a zombie invasion without bullets. Joerg is back this time out with a new slingshot that he designed specifically for the zombie apocalypse.

I admit, I am not the very daring type. I always chicken out when it comes to doing stuff that’s even just slightly scary–like ride a roller coaster, for example. That just isn’t me. But if you’re the type of person who enjoys being hurled around in the air, then you might want to fly to Utah so you can give the Pope family’s human slingshot a shot (sorry, couldn’t resist!)

Generally, when we talk about the wild man with slingshots, Joerg Sprave, he is trying out a new slingshot. Joerg has something a bit different he is talking about this time around and it’s actually pretty interesting.

The last time I talked about a cool slingshot fit for the zombie apocalypse from our slingshot-wielding madman pal Joerg Sprave, it was the crossbow slingshot. Joerg is back today with what may be the coolest slingshot that he has ever made.

Ever wonder what facial expression people make when they’re about to be hit by something via slingshot? No? Well, no need to keep guessing because the Sling Shot camera can help you out with that by taking photos of people prior to them getting shot at.

Slingshot-obsessed madman Joerg Sprave is back, and this time around he is showing off the finished product of that crossbow slingshot that we saw a while back. Along with that crossbow design, he is also showing off a smaller handheld slingshot that uses the same roller system that the crossbow uses.

The last couple of times we talked about slingshots made by our pal Joerg Sprave it was either chunking iPhones as the ammo or destroying cars. This time around, Sprave is back with a slingshot that uses more common ammo in the forms of big ball bearings.

We’ve featured a variet of the insane slingshot-style weapons created by Joerg Sprave before, but this one wins the record for the most powerful and largest slingshot I’ve ever seen. This 10 foot-long beast can fire a 3-inch steel ball over 650 feet through the air.

I have talked about Joerg Sprave a few times. He makes some of the wildest looking slingshots that flick things like saw blades and more. I have long thought if I was picking a team of experts to survive a zombie Armageddon, Sprave would be my top pick.

I have talked about the implements of zombie protection that the geek known as Joerg Sprave creates on a few occasions. This is the dude behind the machete flinging slingshot and that slingshot that shoots a bunch of ball bearings.

You remember Joerg Sprave, that dude that invented the machete flinging slingshot? Well he is back with another awesome DIY weapon. I am more surprised that he appears to be back with all his fingers intact.
