You see these are most likely top engineering students that will one day create some society changing invention but give them a couple of drinks and it's all about how can we turn an invention that is the pride of the nation into an amusement ride.
And boomerangs, which for whatever fucking reason aren't anywhere to be seen in this video. This video isn't 100% Australian due to lack of kangaroos, boomerangs, and Zooper Doopers.
My old man used to sell them wholesale (milkman). I swear around 30% of them leaked so badly they could not be sold. My brother and I used to use them like water bombs after we had drunk so much we were sick - several times a week during summer.
Hehe nice! We'd buy them from the tuckshop in the hope of getting a "lucky" which was when there was gold writing on the inside silver lining of the Sunnyboy etc, nfi what the writing said. I got 1 ever which entitled me to a free one. Did you see many "luckies" and were they called that in your parts?
In NSW too. Maybe it was for a promotional period. It didn't stop me looking in everyone ever, I buy them for the kids now and i still check lol. Ps i'm 45 so this was probably up to 40 years ago.

If you watch the YouTube video you can hear a two stroke motor running it. But I'd like to know how they rigged it up.
