Human Hungry Hippos Hire

A life-size take on the classic Hungry Hippos board game. Four players lie on wheeled scooter boards at the corners of an inflatable arena, each tethered to their corner by a bungee cord. A pile of coloured balls sits in the middle. On the whistle, a teammate pushes each player into the centre, they scoop up as many balls as they can carry, and the bungee snaps them back to base to unload - over and over until the middle is empty. Most balls in your corner wins.

It is one of the funniest games to watch as well as play, which makes it a reliable crowd-draw at fun days and a strong team relay for corporate days and freshers fairs. We supply the inflatable arena, the scooter boards, the bungee cords and a tub of balls, and a member of our team sets it up and runs the rounds.

We've been hiring out inflatable and carnival games from Sheffield since 1999, and we own and maintain our own kit.
