Nothing....lol. I had a real whip when I was eleven years old and I never woulda settled for one of those. I still have it to this day. It's beat up big time because I used to swing from trees with it and everything.

Heh... sounds familiar. I had a great 10' whip that eventually gave up the ghost to too much swinging from tree branches. I think I still have the pieces of it ;).

I suppose so.

Kids are a violent lot, on the whole. I was. :lol:

That whip looks good for someone up to about age 6, I'd say. Any older than that and they will want something better.

Besides its crappy design at least you'll get a crack from it every time and I believe it also plays the raiders march.

I can see some kid carrying one of those to the movie with his Dorfman. And then he sees me and thinks "OMG! It's the real Indiana Jones!!"

Although I must say, if I was a little kid I'd be all over that. I remember my first whip which was real leather. Won it on ebay and it actually looked like an Indy whip. I have some good memories of that thing (until I tried to swing on it one time too many and *SNAP*).
