If you can’t seem to get a split playing ten pin bowling, why not just split the ball itself?<\/p>\n

That’s what Australian stunt group How Ridiculous have done, but instead of just bludgeoning the thing, they’ve decided to launch the ball from a 45 metre (150 feet) high tower, dropping it on an axe below.<\/p>\n

*Drop responsibly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
