1 MILLION VIEWS ON INSTAGRAM!!!
I had no idea the video would detonate across the internet like a fireball in an action movie. One second it was quiet… the next, BOOM — a million people watching the sky light up.

Meanwhile, my teenage daughter remains completely unfazed… as if a million people hitting “play” is just another stunt.

And to all the commenters shouting “AI!” from the rooftops — trust me, if it was fake, we wouldn’t still be searching for the 14 gallons of gas that mysteriously vanished from the blast zone.

What’s the best way to light a huge bomb fire?
With a pumpkin on fire!

Doing the fall tour of pumpkin chucking at five schools across the area! 🎃💨 The kids go absolutely wild when they see a pumpkin fly the length of a football field. It’s definitely the highlight of their day. And I can only imagine their parents later that day…
“Wait, you saw what fly across the football field at school today?!” 😂

Sometimes the best adventures start on a whim. Yesterday, we packed up and headed to Louisville after getting the call to chuck for ESPN. 🎥📺 The event, hosted by Purdue University, wasn’t about distance this time — it was all about accuracy. The goal: land a pumpkin as close to 300 feet as possible.

That might sound simple, but when your trebuchet is built to launch over 900 feet, it’s like asking a race car to tiptoe through a school zone. After a few tense adjustments and careful tuning, we sent one flying — and it landed just 15 feet short of perfect.

Not bad for a spur-of-the-moment trip and a machine that usually lives for full power.

Epic day of chuckin pumpkins. We threw 600, 730, 908, and 980 feet!

The Pumpkin Trucker delivered again today — and CHUCKED a pumpkin 980 feet! 🎃💥

We had some great friends stop by and a bunch of new faces who made the trip to see it in person. This video shows our first throw (and honestly our worst one) — a 600-foot line drive that never got more than 50 feet off the ground… but still flew the distance of two football fields. 🤯

Every throw’s a little different, but the power never gets old!

We hit the local TV station today to share the excitement of pumpkin chucking! 🎃💪 It’s not every day you get to talk about launching pumpkins hundreds of feet through the air — can’t wait for everyone to see what we’ve been building and get fired up for the big throws!

Have you ever seen a pumpkin fly almost 1,000 feet in 6.3 seconds?
