PUMPKIN POWER!!!!!!!! 
This is actually very cool. I would LOVE one of these! But I am terrified to learn of what litigation might await me (I live in New York State, where you can’t even have a can opener without a license and numerous “fees” and “surcharges.”)
But I also have to wonder about the folks who live “down the pike” from the cannon… I can’t help but wonder what they think about all the squashes and pumpkins suddenly littering their backyard. Pumpkins from Mars? Could it be a sign? Hahah!!
P.S. Did you notice that when the guy was asked what his favorite form of cannon ammunition was, his answer was “bowling balls!”??
