Watch Junkyard Wars online: Episode 6 Giant Darts

An all-female team (Iron Maidens) and, a trio of medieval battle enthusiasts from Yorkshire (Jousters) built machines that shoot giant darts to a giant dart board. Iron Maidens built a spring loaded catapult-like thrower, Jousters built a crossbow made from wood. In challenge day, first attempt by both teams failed to launch darts fell short. In the second attempt, Jousters fired the dart to the board, but hit just below the centre; the dart launched by Iron Maidens failed to reach target. In the final attempt, Jousters overpulled the trigger and broke the bow. As a desperate measure, Iron Maidens tried to fire the dart by putting the spring directly behind the dart. The dart launched by Iron Maidens still fell before reaching target, even more so than previous attempt. Team - Members Iron Maidens Jousters
