I gotta go with nunchuks. Anything you sling around on a chain seems silly to me. It seems like nunchuks are only good weapons against the unarmed. Anyone else has more range, usually something sharp in play and there isn’t a limp chain in the middle reducing the force of your strikes.
I mean there is a helmet that’s even stupider, or perhaps just more tragic.
WARNING: Extremely NSFL - features a device built for self-harm.
spoiler
Back in the 1970s, a troubled but mechanically inclined youth built this macabre “weapon.” It featured 8 short metal tubes affixed to a crude helmet. Each contained a shotgun shell. Each shell was then wired to an arc welder. At the flick of a switch, 8 shotgun shells activated simultaneously, aimed directly at the inventor’s head. The kid really, really wanted to make sure he didn’t survive this. So he built a device to shoot himself point-blank with 8 shotguns simultaneously.
