'''Bungee balls''' are [[toy]]s that are produced as a means of enhancing a person's [[hand-eye coordination]]. 

== Composition ==

Traditionally, a bungee ball is made of plastic.  At one end or an elastic cord a person slips his/her finger into a notch and at the other end is an elastic hollow ball containing synthetic liquid.

== Fashion and availability ==

Bungee balls were a fad in February 1991 and most bungee balls were sold during this time period{{Fact|date=February 2007}}.  After March 2003, they started vanishing from stores, partly because of controversy over what was contained inside them{{Fact|date=February 2007}}.  They were also discontinued in many stores because usually after about 4-7 hours of use, the Bungee Ball's bungee cord would snap, and the ball itself would break, releasing synthetically-made liquid. They were recalled in October 2003, nearly all of the bungee balls had vanished from retail stores, and are now mainly available by online shopping{{Fact|date=February 2007}}. These are also used for very large women, to pleasure themselves for days.
