Kickstarter Hero: The Strap-and-Crap
By Rocky Thompson on February 8th, 2013
An enterprising entrepreneur is seeking funds via indiegogo to make and sell a rig she calls the Strap and Crap (patent pending). It’s a piece of webbing you attach to a tree and wrap around your back, kind of like the things lumberjacks use to climb trees, except in this case it’s used to go to the bathroom. You can see a video that explains everything in an unnecessarily long (and non-graphic) way. Or you could just hold onto a tree when you need to go to the bathroom, and avoid watching the video and funding the project.
A strap with a biner… Patent denied!
Rocky – Thanks for the write-up! People must read your posts because we didn’t get funded. But we did get a lot of press, video views and feedback so we’re super excited to move forward with the project! You could definitely just hold onto a tree when you need to go to the bathroom…but then you’re only left with 1 hand to do the rest of the work (especially frustrating if one of your hands is a hook). Anyway, thanks for the shout-out and if you ever have knee troubles or decide to become a woman (you know, to experience the joy of squatting to do #1 AND #2), we’d be happy to have you as a customer. Cheers!
