Inventor Creates a Fridge That Will Throw the Beer to You

 

United States inventor John Cornwell has created a fridge that will throw you a cold beer on request. The remote-control operated fridge can feed a beer into an adjustable aim catapult that is capable of throwing a can up to 10 feet.

The fridge has a 10-can magazine and can hold a further 14 reserve cans. "I thought, 'What if instead of me going to get the beer, the beer came to me?'" John said.

"About three months later I have a fully automated, remote-controlled, catapulting, beer-launching mini-fridge," he continued, "There is a slight danger of being hit in the head with a flying can but this danger decreases the more you use it."

I like the last comment in the original source; "There is a slight danger of being hit in the head with a flying can but this danger decreases the more you use it."

I would think just the opposite would happen. Hic... Hic...
