Tennis Ball Bomb in UNDER 2 Hours

Step 5Almost done!

After about an hour, you should get the ball full with matches now. At this point, make sure you have the ball as full as it can go with the funnel, because I wouldn't reccommend putting it back in if its too full. You might accidently hit the matches and cause em to light or something cuz you gotta shove the funnel in far to get it to fit again. So i advise you don't try that, and just make sure your done with the funnel before taking it out.

Now that the ball is mostly full, you have to stuff it even more with matches. Start chopping of match heads and pushing them inside the ball one by one. Shake the ball (NOT TOO HARD!). If you can hear matches still bouncing around in there, then you know you have to put it in more match heads still. Even if it doesn't feel like theyll fit, just keep stuffin it! Just wriggle it around and find a spot where it'll slide in.

Once you can't here any more matches shaking around inside and are satisfied that it's good and compact, then you can stop loading it now. Edit: Cover up the hole really good somehow, because if you don't, the matches will like, PROPELL the thing in some other direction and it wont work good.
