Gamer Decides to Sell His "Battle Bucket" for Fortnite for $500

An unusual gaming chair, which allows players to avoid leaving Fortnite to go to the toilet, has gone viral again. The homemade device, called the Battle Bucket, appeared on Facebook* Marketplace with a price tag of $500.

The design consists of a folding chair with a hole cut in the seat, under which an orange plastic container is placed. A separate tube connected to the bucket is provided for urination. Judging by the photos, the chair is almost identical to the design that became famous in a viral TikTok from 2023 by user usecodelitty200iq. The G FUEL sticker is also still on the seat.

In the original video, the author explained that it was thanks to this design that he could play Fortnite "for so long without going to the toilet". The video itself was later deleted, but copies of it are still circulating online. Photos of the new listing have already garnered over four million views on X.

The seller claims to have owned the Battle Bucket for several years and used it almost daily.

Whether this is true or just another internet joke remains unknown. There is a possibility that the listing uses photos of the same design from the viral video of 2023. Nevertheless, users have already conducted a detailed "technical analysis" of the Battle Bucket.

Particular attention was drawn to the placement of the tube. Some commentators noted that it is connected too close to the bottom of the bucket. In their opinion, under certain conditions, this could lead to the container filling up and liquid starting to rise back up the tube.

The story also reached the British organizer of gaming and esports events, EPIC.LAN. The organizers humorously stated that they had already "added this to the list of prohibited items".
