You use jet pack to rise very quickly 20 meters in the air. Most human males have at least one testicle (ball) so in a sense you throw your own ball which drops because of the speed. But the ball is attached to you and so it will return to its original position without hitting anything.   IP Logged gitanas Junior Member     Posts: 55 Re: Throw up a ball and...   « Reply #5 on: Jun 22nd, 2016, 11:35pm » Quote Modify Maybe just throw it straight up?
