  7. Pop your "missile" into the cup. This should be something light and soft such as screwed up paper or a pompom. Avoid marbles, small toys, ball bearings and other hard objects which can cause damage to people and property.

  11. The open end will fold together when you stretch the balloon, but this will not stop the missile from firing
