The accuracy of this slingshot is impressive. (It helps me believe that David could use this humble weapon to defeat the giant Goliath, who was armored, and had a shield, a sword, and spear. But David had only his slingshot.... and faith in the Lord. 1 Samuel 17:40-51) [video]

That sling in your second link is no joke. When I was a kid, I had friends who used one to (accidentally) take out a car window at a hundred yards.

Malcolm Gladwell wrote a book about David and Goliath. David And Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants. Here is a 15 minute video of him talking about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziGD7vQOwl8
