Ninja Darts
I've asked a few people, but I haven't found a school who used to make these to the same extent we did.

Take a square piece of card, fold diagonally in half, open and do the same on the other diagonal. Open again and put a drawing pin at the centre. Stick a good wodge of blutac behind it as a weight. Fold the edges in until they stick to the blutac leaving you with a 4 winged dart.

These flew with excellent speed and accuracy in the right hands and would stick into most things, plaster walls, wooden ceiling supports, and especially blackboards. You could pin a warning note to the teacher against the blackboard while they had their back turned to chalk up more boring shit. Blutac was instantly banned and anyone found with drawing pins were instantly expelled. Teachers came to fear the silent winged origami of death.

Remember how I said in the right hands you could throw those things with deadly accuracy? I was not one of those people. Sure I'd thrown a couple around and wedged one into the ceiling of the science lab (which on a visit last year I discovered was still there) but I was still an apprentice dart thrower. There was a particularly hated physics teacher and I'd been seen picking the blutac off a poster and was egged on to deliver a warning shot at Mrs Physics. Feeling cool, I agreed.

It was supposed to hit the blackboard, that's where I'd aimed at least, instead the dart went straight and true into the back of her head and to our horror, there it stayed.

Mrs Physics whirled around but luckily we must have all had the same shocked reaction and the guilty person was left unidentified. She looked around the floor, thinking it was an object that struck her and bounced off, but finding nothing and no obviously guilty party, she turned back and continued writing.

It fell off eventually and we worked in teams to hook the dart away and out of sight.

I have no idea if she ever found out. We stopped making darts when Andrew McGilchrist got it in the eye and almost lost sight in it.

Use the plastic things off the end of shoelaces and a sewing pin..
Push through, grab a straw, instant blow-pipe and darts.

Dr Marten bootlaces were perfect for this.

It's all fun and games till someone loses and eye.


Then it's all fun and games just without the depth perception.
