I used to, but then I started blowing them up. I quit when I tried to launch a hamster in one.

Why do I feel like I'm posting in a thread with kids that act like the evil kid in Toy Stories?

Maybe..

Off Topic: Yes, no hard feelings, but in fact, I'm calling you a kid. According to your profile you're not that old. I think kid is the proper term.

On Topic: Putting a hamster inside a rocket is not my definition of funny. More like. Mean. And stupid.

I suffer a Impulse problem. That's why I quit rocketting. The hamster survived, he actually got something out of the whole thing. Before he wouldn't eat much, but after he ate more. He grow to a ripe old fat age.

Yea I dont really launch rockets so much as i just find stuff to strap the engine to and ignite it.

In my more reckless year's I strapped 2 D engines to a G.I. Joe like a jetpack. He went through the neighbors car windshield.......

Then there was the time I tested a C engine in a little stock car, that one put a hole in the trash bin out front.

After that I wasn't allowed to play with explosives around the house anymore....

i tried launch a rocket(when i was a teen scientist) i nearly blew of everything cuase i used real rocket shell which was left from persian gulf war and i used mine tnt in it it blew of big no body got hurt though and police came afterwards but they couldn't do anything, and later i found the shell in a wall about well long distance, then i was gratefull cuase it didn't hit anyone, and thats the story of it.(never try things without professionals help)
