The kendama is a traditional Japanese toy. It’s simple in it’s pure evil nature. The entire toy consists of a wooden ball attached by string to a grip. The goal is to get the ball to land on the top of the grip, the bottom of the grip, or the two sides. Oh the insanity.

You could compare the kendama to a yo-yo, but I think the yo-yo is child’s play compared to the kendama. This evil toy can be bought most anywhere for as little as $1. You’ll probably need to buy quite a few as you’re bound to break many out of pure anger.

Give it a try sometime and see how you fair at it…
