Claim: Bungee balls are toys that are used in play, that become a fad in February 1991 and finally recalled in October 2003 for containing synthetic liquid.
Evidence: Bungee balls are toys that are produced as a means of enhancing a person's hand–eye coordination. Bungee balls were a fad in February 1991 and most bungee balls were sold during this time period. They were recalled in October 2003. They were also discontinued in many stores because often after about 4–7 hours of use, the Bungee Ball's bungee cord would snap, and the ball itself would break, releasing synthetic liquid.
