Trebuchet gone out with a blast

I’ve just gotten news that the trebuchet went out in glory. It both made a new record (243 ft) and broke appart at the same time. Though I was not there to witness the event, I will receive pictures and perhaps video shortly, and post them. See the trebuchet article here.
Update: After posting the above, the other trebuchet man (Mike) send the following: “‘Out in Glory’? I don’t think so Jack, the trebuchet is still standing strong. It will yet again be laying seige to the neighbor’s driveway by the end of the week!”
