UserID: 691 |  I've heard reports that it will if twisted excessively or punctured beforehand, but I can't confirm either of these, and they don't sound like the sort of things that would get consistant results. |

UserID: 576 | You could also shoot a weak balloon with your water gun, pull back on a string, or hit the balloon with something else. However, like Big Boss said, it will always produce inconsistent results--and just throwing them the standard way is much easier and more effective.

UserID: 549 | There is a mix you can add to the balloon that will let water bombs explode in mid air. However, it has a very short "fuse" and must be made at the time of launch. - I have experiemented with ways of getting the mix sorted for rapid mix but it needs more work.

UserID: 658 | Actually all you have to do is twist the middle of the balloon 20-30 times. It may explode early but it usually works for me. |

UserID: 590 | ya... like you could actually hit a water balloon in mid air.... wow that would be the day. wouldn't you feel kind of stupid in the middle of a water fight pulling out your bb gun to attempt to hit a water balloon in mid air? What the heck? "hey buddy this is a water fight" "sorry im trying to detonate water balloons in mid air... could you hold still for a second?" |
