Miniature Boomerang!

Everyone knows boomerangs are awesome. The thing is, they're hard to throw correctly, and you need a lot of space to throw them. But with this little cardboard boomerang, you get an easy-to-throw toy that you can use indoors!

Step 1: Materials

1) A cereal box

2) Scissors

3) At least two fingers and a thumb on each of your hands

This is just amazing and no real effort's needed to make it come back. You only need a little practise to get it back to your hands.

Video would be nice, but its a good instructable. I say that because its so easy to get the things, easy to make. Very nice

A video of this in action would be nice. Other than that, great instructable. +4

Sorry, for some reason I couldn't upload my video; it kept saying there was no file selected. Thanks, though!

What format is it in? You could convert it to a different format. Or you could upload it to YouTube and embed it here.

It's a quicktime video, I think. I don't have a Youtube account, by the way.

.3gp? .mp4? You could get a Youtube account. Took me 2 minutes to sign up.

[Lolbert]

first, make sure it is not pointing downwards when you launch it. If it still doesn't work, try tilting it up a bit.
