This was one of Zach and Ben's creations at Camp Invention. Don't be fooled by the complexity, the actual invention is the wine box and black tube at the bottom of the picture, along with that blue-rimmed rectangle at the right. All the other stuff is the inferior and inefficient invention of some" other kids". The business end of the invention, to the right, is what pops the water balloon. The cutter is basically a jagged slice of circuit board. A golf ball is fed through the black tube and travels down it, picking up speed, exits and pummels the poor water balloon against the jagged electronics, like a storm throwing a wooden ship against a rocky coast.
Simple. Brilliant. :)

I love the description of the hard work. They were so proud of their moment in the sun, weren't they.
How fabulous to see such great, young minds work to come up with such amazing things.
Look out Thomas Edison!
