Power Balance wristbands

[headshot]

What do you guys think of the P.B. wristbands. According to EVERYONE I talk to, they are the greatest invention in the world. They make you run faster, jump higher, stronger, more balanced, blah blah blah. If they can do everything else, they should make you shoot better, right?

Is it worth $30?

 

[DAVE_M]

Spend that $30 on ammo.

Power Balance bands and all the other nonsense is a gimmick. If they work as they say, I should be able to slap one on and cure cancer with my new super powers.

If they weren't a scam, Walmart would sell them.

I've seen them at Walgreens. I think they're a scam too.

Snake Oil.

They're taking advantage the Westerners' gullibility and their awe of Eastern "medicine".

Shaq is like any other celebrity , he would endorse anything you paid him too.

 

[Tulse Luper]

Damn!

Walgreens carries all the "as seen on tv stuff"

They only work to their full potential when combined with those magic foot pads that suck all of the poo out of your body.

Next time you see someone wearing one, push them down.

I guess that would be a good a test as any

If there's no peer reviewed studies I agree with the Snake Oil post. The commercials are just too slick. Like the Enzyte male enhancement scam with Smiling Bob. They took a lot of people for tens of millions of dollars. Save your money and buy a pet rock.

The test thy do on the commercial can be reproduced easily. Have your friend stand with his feet together and push him. He will fall. Have him spread his feet shoulder width apart and push, it will be more difficult to push him over. It's not some magic magnetic bracelet, it's comon center of gravity. Same thing I teach to senior citizens in the nursing home all day. IMHO, save your money, improve your trunk strength and muscular control, you'll be happier and healthier.

They won't help your shooting but I've got a paracord bracelet that's been synced to a 7.56Mhz square wave to be in tune with your body frequencies then dipped in water from a natural spring located at the top of Mt. Everest. Wearing it you can make bullets curve and hit anywhere you want.(they used them in the movie "Wanted").

I sell it for 3 easy payments of $19.99

and the first 10 to purchase get this amazing sticker! Put it on your car and see your gas mileage improve and maintenance costs decrease due to the mystical pyramid shape and the colors being in tune with your engine!!! just pay extra shipping and processing

 

[DAVE_M]

That's pretty much what they do on television.

I had never heard of this until just now. I can't believe people even have to take the time to disprove it and call it a fraud or scam etc.

It should be a given that magic bracelets don't make you stronger or faster. You don't have magical energy in your body. I'm just in awe that people can believe these things. This species is a failure and needs a good doomsday extinction.
