Looks like a big-a** slingshot to me.

The Boom-Lift Catapult tossed him a respectable 90 feet... if you include the 60 feet of boom. In Raccoon Rocket, 10 lbs. of black powder blasted him 80 feet.

So clearly the second spike was Buster twisting to get out of the way of the deadly tissue box!

Well, I like danger.

With the hard work done... Adam arrives.
