The bumper ball is also known as Bubble soccer, Human Bubble ball, or the OGO (Outdoor Gravity Orb).

It is amazing how the same activity can be called by so many names just because of a cultural difference, but the one thing that stays the same is the amount of excitement and fun that is had by all. 

Human Hamster Ball

The usual size for a ball is approximately 3 meters (10 ft) in diameter. However, on one occasion Nissan stuffed one of their cars inside a giant custom made zorb and rolled it down a hill for an advertisement in the name of safety. Anyway, for the more common balls, the inner sphere size is usually 2 meters (6 ft 7 in). The area of around 50 cm (20in) between the two spheres makes up the air cushion. The outer and inner sphere are connected by the nylon strings. Zorbs have one or two tunnel entrances.

Human Hamster Ball Structure

The ball is made out of two sections, one ball inside the other, with a layer of air in between. The two are linked by an intricate network of nylon wires. Sometimes there can be more than 300 individual threads linking them. This structure prevents the rider from injury as it acts like a shock absorber, damping bumps along the ride. In opposition to the original hamster ball, which is made of rigid material, the human-hamster-ball is made of soft malleable plastic and is lightweight. The plastic is usually around 0.8 mm (0.03 in) thick.
