Watched Longest Yard with Adam Sandler this morning and there was this grenade used in a prison fight. The guard threw it and it exploded into the fight sending hundreds of rubber ballsinto the fracas. It was awesome and i was wondering if these things actually exist. I know about rubber bullets as i have used them and i know about beanbag projectiles but this grenade was a whole new level.
If they are real, anyone know what they are called and what company makes them?
thanks.
ps, i am not a nutcase

well if you find any.

It could be fun when you next pass a scammervan with the doors open.
