Jacob uses heavy machinery

After building a catapult from a saw horse and a kickboard, Jacob realises that he needs to get higher up in order to get a better launch distance.

He takes his catapult and the astronaut, and searches the neighbourhood around the Stormester house, soon finding a hill.

At the top of the hill, Jacob discovers a construction site, and flags down one of the workers, asking them if he can use their crane.

After the crane has risen as high as it can go, Jacob leans the kickboard part of his catapult off of the crane’s railing, and launches the astronaut.

Lasse awards Jacob second place.
