Are prank tampons feasible?

[Elok]

You know those party-poppers where you pull the string, it sets off a tiny gunpowder charge and BANG! a bunch of confetti flies out the other end? Does anyone know if you could implant a similar device (sans confetti) in a feminine hygiene device? Just imagine: a woman goes into the bathroom to remove it, tugs on the string and BANG! she nearly has a cardiac arrest as everybody within a hundred feet turns and says "WTF?"

You see, never having been a woman myself, I don't know how firmly the things become lodged in there. It takes a considerable tug to set off a cracker, and if the tampon slides right out it won't go off and the joke is ruined. If so, perhaps a different noisemaking device could be implanted instead, like one of those toddler's animal sound toys. Actually, that might be even funnier, if you pull on the string and a friendly voice proclaims, "A cow says 'MOO!'" Probably safer, too, what with the lack of gunpowder. Also full of humor potential IMO: slide whistles or some sort of ingenious miniature whoopie cushion.

Not that I plan to actually make or distribute such things; I'm just wondering if they're possible.

EDIT: Actually, the gunpowder charge one is definitely a bad idea. It just occurred to me that the detonation would probably cause the thing to explode. But other, safer noisemaking devices are still on the table. It's just a matter of whether they could be miniaturized enough and still make a sufficiently loud noise.

Elok, this is a childish thought.

[Elok]

...says the man who wishes he'd thought of it first.

Just accept your a lousy lay and quit trying to get back at her....

I think you risk health problems, even without the gunpowder. Tampons are actually occasionally fatal (TSS). I wouldn't want to take that sort of risk for a prank. But, I'm not Howie Mandel, either.

[Darius871]

Yeah, one case of TSS and you get sued up the ass. If you sell enough of them though, some classic Pinto math might show it profitable in the long run.

[Chemical Ollie]

I doubt women would like the idea of inserting explosives inte their bodily cavities

[Alinestra Covelia]

This is pretty cool though. It attaches itself to penii and doesn't afraid of anything.

[-Jrabbit]

That is amazing.

[rah]

Yes, but the thought that it could help the woman escape might be a bit much. It might even encourage the rapist to harm his victim in retaliation.

[-Jrabbit]

Well, the link is to a 2005 article and I've never heard of this before, so it's probably safe to say that the idea didn't catch on.

[Elok]

Oh, I've heard of it before, though not of any widespread use. But then, I haven't exactly been following the rape-prevention-device news. Also I don't live in South Africa, and the rape rate here in the US probably isn't high enough to warrant wearing such a device frequently.

[rah]

One, I assume you have to be able to take it out, so rapists could just check prior to insertion. It could be like the chinese finger trap.
Two, I would worry about a woman getting even with a boyfriend for some imagined or real transgression.
Three, I pity the fool that shows up at the hospital with one stuck to his tongue.

LOL, comic gold! You're one sick puppy, rah.

Reminds me of a device in a Timothy Leary novel I read long ago.
