The Power Drencher! ...Wait? You mean the Super Soaker, right?
Yes! The Super Soaker has an amazing history and was invented by a nuclear engineer with a list of achievements most could only dream of.
Find out how the world's most famous water guns made a splash in the 90s with their new technology that left competitor sales dry. I talk about how Lonnie Johnson came up with the idea for the toy, how it went into production, the different models and where the toy is today.
