Hamsters take flight

#1 Postby tomboudreau » Wed Jan 30, 2008 5:49 pm

How far can you send your hamster flying? My best is 204 feet. Be sure to play with the sound on.

Have lots of fun!!

You can launch the skateboard and roll along the ground until you stop.

Wow, I suck :lol: 3 tries and got 140ish on the 3rd go-around. The second time I did it, I got 24 total for my flight (4 misses and the last one went 24 feet). The longest actual flight I had was 99 feet.

That's a game from The Cartoon Network. Go up as much as possible to see space. It is funny.

I can settle for third (especially as my record was 100 this morning). :D

Edit: also got 752 immediately after that.
