Hi I'm 13 years old and I was wondering how to shoot my rubber bands out of my mouth! Can you aim them?!

Trying to shoot rubber bands with your mouth is a really bad idea. Have you ever tried to shoot rubber bands off your finger before? It seems like, at least a third of the time the rubber band ends up going backwards and slapping you rather than flying anywhere. Imagine that happening in your mouth... It would be pretty easy to choke on one.

I'm guessing you want to learn how to do this because someone you know can do it and it looks cool, or you've just heard about it and think it would be cool. Well, you wont look very impressive if you choke on a rubber band. :/

Try picking up another unusual skill like contact juggling. Contact juggling is where someone moves a ball around their arms, hands, the backs of their hands, and so on. So you juggle it, but without ever letting go. It's cooler than it sounds. Here's a website with lots of information about it:

The main page also has a video, so you can watch it and see if it looks like something you'd want to learn.
