Some days, I totally feel that way! I was just telling Janae that being the King of Random is a pile of work beating my head against the wall, followed by a day or two of ridiculous fun, then I start over. It’s actually a pretty great gig! -Jarom

This particular video and your laughter after each shot convinces me that your collab with KentackyBallistic would be so much laught and fun 😁
Jarom, you're killing it! It would increase the danger quite a bit, but imagine putting a pressure chamber behind the ping pong ball too! Keep it up, this was such a fun video!

the laugh is great, almost like jamie's laugh. nice to see the ping pong launcher improved upon.
That’s sick the Tshirt also looks amazing
Thank you for the great content you are the new king of random thank you❤ 🇨🇦
Found this channel after idk after how many years....I used to watch this from the time of Grant....I miss the OG 'The King of Random'....RIP Grant....
The pure joy and fun your having after each shot is what makes the video. Love it!
My son would love that shirt! SO cool.
Teaching people how to make unpractical guns😂 classic TKOR
Man, it's been a long time since I was looking forward to another TKOR video. Jarom, you're smashing it, and not just the fruit.
Fun fact, the shockwave from bursting Mylar like this is used to induce traumatic brain injury in mice, for studying diseases and possible therapeutics.

Excellent!! Thanks for keeping Grant's legacy alive! If you were to fill a ping pong ball with gallium and then chill it, might have even more penetrative power? Or would the gallium deform before causing any damage? Keep up the great work!

I doubt the shirt would fit, but this was really fun!
Hope there hasn't been a winner yet, I had family over and just got done watching, lol (We be Irish folks). Regardless, this is an awesome build! I'm curious if you could do a arm/hand cannon like this, but maybe with CO2 cartridges? A mobile version of this would be insane. Keep staying random
Let's see some chronograph tests. There's no way those filled ping pong balls are actually supersonic.

Whoa, a supersonic ping pong ball launcher?! 🚀 That's incredibly creative and impressive! Your video was so entertaining and well-made. Can't wait to see what other awesome projects you come up with! 👏
My man is going to get hired by the Federal Government and he is going to fix the railguns they tested a few years ago..
That was an awesome video. My boys and I loved watching. I wonder how the ping pong balls would do with mercury or gallium inside....
The KING is back!!
Loving the new vibes on the videos.
That's an epic t-shirt, can't show my brother this- his guard unit might actually try to make it! (They're Artillery)
I think Galium would work great.
Finally a good use for ping pong balls. Now the stores will run out.
The ping pong balls with the paint look like eggs lol especially the one with yellow paint. It would have been funny if you tried to launch eggs in it.
Very cool. I'm sure I'd get myself in trouble with that!

Make some attachments for the water to fuel converter, maybe a solar panel, and burner?

Love the new stuff you’re putting out lately, I bet if you filler the ping pong ball with gallium it will go all the way through.

Dude he just made a riot gun can you do this again but fill it with cayenne pepper and olive oil from the microwave? New contact Creator just got mad props. Heavy is the crown bro 👑.
At the begining of the video I was thinking that is there any way to use vacuum to launch ping pong balls and to my surprise this video was about using vacuum to launch it :DD Awesome!
That shirt looks great.
TKOR for life.
Golf ball next
Brings me back to my potato launcher days.
Would have loved to know the speeds! Otherwise cool video. And props to calling out Mythbusters.
