The Human Ball, a luxury play item by Opulent Items promises to redefine what it means to “have a ball.”
The product is designed to allow one to experience life on the inside of a rolling and bouncing ball, and is said to bounce differently based on the terrain. The ball takes 15 minutes to inflate and seems to provide the Bubble Boy experience, but with a larger emphasis on fun. The Human Ball is priced at $1,350 and comes in two different sizes. Since one may be in for a bumpy ride, to ensure safety there are two security belts on the inside. There are two openings for getting inside, and up to two small individuals can fit at a time.
