Music from the punching bag

Boxing and music can be done simultaneously. The musical punching bag allows athletes to play “Ode of joy” and “Jingle bells” on it.

First things first: the idea of creating an interactive punching bag that allows you to “play” music on it is a very clever one. As was the idea to make it programmable, giving it a voice, a laugh, a sigh and so on.

Second things second: did they have to give it a female voice? That just feels wrong guys. Make it Jean-Claude Van Damme grunting, that would work. Or Sylvester Stallone – that might make up for him thumping all those cow-carcasses over the past few decades.

Still, a tip of the cap to the guys behindMotivationalDinosaur’s YouTube video, ”Ode to Joy on a punching bag”, who’ve bravely revealed their clever invention to the internet at large.

Their names are as follows: “Chris Baines, Michael Baker, Ed Copcutt, Max Petre Eastty, Adam Martindale, Taranjit Matharu, Marian Petre” – and, would you believe it, they created this punching bag to end all punching bags “as a summer project before uni”.

Our summer projects before uni normally involved beer and the consuming thereof, but whatever works guys, whatever works.

Oh, and as we’re talking punching bags, here’s a classic YouTube fail video for you below. You know, just because.
