Most of the inputs are wrong.

This is made from what we used to call a gum tree. A cut on the tree makes it bleed a gummy substance that gets thicker eventually.

Wrapping and folding that substance creates the ball in the above picture.

Just cut the bark of the gum tree and the white liquid drops from it is what forms the ball. I made it myself during those old days.

I tell you, it was a mystery to us.

As kids, we used to wonder. We decided to mold the raw material (from rubber tree) as usual like ball, put it inside hot water and cook it yet no sign of swelling up.

Had to look at it very keenly before I recognized it. Jeez,the ball can bounce! It bounces so erratically sometimes your eyes can't keep up. Awesome ball.

xreal:
O boy. I don old be that.

This thing sabi bounce pass felele ball.

in shot, for you to mention felele, it means you are as old as I am

Felele ball...
