Going to college next year? You might want to take one of these Study Balls with you. Curiosite has released a device to force students to study. Attached to a 20-pound ball is a timer that you shackle yourself to. The shackle won’t come off until the timer goes off and your study time is over.

Here’s a little more info from the site:

“The Study Ball gadget($115) is a prison-style ball and chain that you can program to keep track of how much time you spend studying. Once you’ve selected the desired duration, you chain the ball to your ankle and the manacle won’t come off until the schedule study time is up.”

If you’re a student who can’t focus then you need one of these to force yourself to study. They cost $115, are made of highly durable steel and weighs in at around 20.95 pounds. I wouldn’t try to move around with it. Maybe you can kill two birds with one stone by working out with these things on. You’ll end up with some pretty muscular legs.
